AF-9.

I wouldn't recommend Behringer in a thread where the OP wants something reliable

That is possibly the worst "instrument" (if you can call it that) that I have ever seen. Not only would it be unplayable, but it looks HIDEOUS. So if it's strung in 0.05 guages apart, that means there can't be that big an interval between open strings...So what's the tuning? B C C# D D# E etc? Bloody idiot. You've successfully spent months and months doing f*** ALL. I wouldn't claim to be the maker of that thing if you paid me.

Yup, that's what he means. I've always been interested in buying kits, but I just wouldn't have the time or patience to finish them! One day I'm sure I'll do it though.

Yup. I had both up for sale in the for sale section, but unfortunately they've both sold.

If anyone wants a UniBass PM me!

[url="http://www.chunksystems.com"]www.chunksystems.com[/url] Check out the Brown Dog. Very nice fuzz, could be just what you're looking for.

Tracking is how accurately the pedal "tracks" the note that you play in order to reproduce it. For example a pedal with poor tracking would warble on the octave'd note, or take a little bit of time to kick in, and a pedal with good tracking would accurately reproduce the note an octave higher/lower without the short delay.

Kev, that's because both the Q-Tron and Big Muff are sh*te. I'm not a big fan of either of them. Running the Brown Dog into the 00Funk is no different from running any other fuzz into any other filter. It's always given me some synthy Sir Psycho sounds. (Holy cow, that's some aliteration!) The basic combination for synth sounds as most people would agree is, octaver->fuzz->filter. Take out the octaver, you've still got the majority of factors for synth sounds. Previous combinations i've used are: Boss ODB-3 and Q-Tron Prunes and Custard and Maxon AF-9 Tonefactor Hellbaby and Maxon AF-9 Chunk Brown Dog and Chunk 00Funk Prunes and Custard and 00Funk

I always run gain into filter. Gives awesome synthy tones.

I've PM'd you 99ster.

18 - Male. Been playing for coming up to 4 years now. Mainly 4 string, though I do love the Low B. I own Yamaha 4 and 5 strings - the same model too, just one has an extra string! Love funk. Jamiroquai are where it's at! I also love rock, and would say my major influences are Timmy C of Rage, Stu Zender, Flea, Nathan Watts, Paul Turner. Hardly EVER use a pick, though I really should because the sound is gorgeous. Finger style player mainly, although I do LOVE to slap. Very basic tapping skills - Never use it really. I love to lock in and just keep the tight groove flowing. I'm also an active member of the "Watch the drummer's kick drum foot" Club. I try to be as melodic as possible without detracting from my Rhythmic duties!

Wish I could have made it - Everyone looks like they had a great time. Some of them basses look gorgeous - the Blue DJ5 in particular! Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the next one - I'll bring my pedalboard, and by the time the next one is, I'll probably have my Valenti!

I've got a Tech21 Comptortion for sale if your interested. Very gritty sounding distortion - loads of gain on tap. No low end loss either.

I agree with Ped - You can slap on a P just the same as you would any other bass. It might not have the best high-end available, but I like the phatness you get from them when slapping.
