I picked up a Line 6 HX One recently, and the Clawthorne Drive on there is really good, as is the copy of the B3K.

I got two sets 4 years apart and the newer pair seemed twice the size of the old pair! I did query it with ACS but they said my ears had just changed shape!

ACS custom all the way. I’ve been using the Pro 26s for years, as like you am struggling with hearing loss and tinnitus. once you are used to them you will never want to play with out them. I had to wear them went I went to see AC/DC the other week as that was also deafening! have a search around as you can usually find a voucher code for 10 or 15% off

I have the AO 500 amp, and I am pretty sure you can use the cab sim on the headphone amp for that. I’d have to check to be sure. As an aside, I ended up buying a Katana Go for my practice solution and it’s awesome. I was going to get a B7k ultra V2 but got the katana go instead. The Bluetooth playback and minimal amount of cables is great.

It does - just. Need to have it at a funny angle to do so, but it does fit. I picked one up at the weekend, first impressions are that it sounds great but seems a bit flimsy. I am worried about putting it in the Ibanez at the funny angle, that it will eventually snap. it goes into my jazz bass special and Ibanez guitar ok though

A low point for me in an old band was having to play Hurt by Johnny Cash which is about as depressing as it gets! Definitely not suited to a pub rock cover band!

Nice! how do you find the neck of the duff deluxe, vs the jazz bass special? I have the duff jazz bass special but read that the neck is thicker on the duff deluxe

I only need to go down half a step, but my action is quite low and buzzy as it is so worry physically tuning down half step will just make it worse

Thanks for letting me know. The rest of the pedal does look & sound great from all the videos I’ve seen

What is the drop tune effect like?

Can anyone who has one of these comment on the quality of the drop tune effect? I need to get something to drop me down half a step and am looking between the Digitech drop or maybe ME90b

Just switch to the Boss WL20, that’s what I did and it’s just as good. One end in your bass and the other in the input of your pedal board. The only difference I noted was having to charge both the dongles from a USB plug before a gig rather than just one.

I’m after one of these, so will be interested to hear your thoughts in it. what’s the pitch shifting like, does it go down in half steps?

They can’t be selling many of anything with these increases. am tempted by the new Boss Me90b instead which is a lot less

Does anyone know what's going on with Line 6's prices, in particular the HX products? They seem to have shot up in price over the last few days. I have been thinking of getting either a HX One or HX Stomp XL and as such have been monitoring the prices recently. The HX One has increased (at the usual online retailers) from £249 to £299 & £329 and the HX Stomp XL from £599 to £799, which is a 1/3rd increase in price! I appreciate cost of living & inflation etc, but these are huge increases. Am currently kicking myself for my indecision as a couple of weeks ago Guitar Guitar had the HX One for £229 and Stomp XL for £549 in their spring sale.
