Going by Basschat socials, shouldn't it be 'A Bash' of bass players?

A Rumble?

Congratulations. Loved the classy cinematic...ness of it. We'll deserved!

Another quality crop! It doesn't matter how odd the pic is, it always triggers some great creativity.

Desk Monkey?

And IIRC Ms Zsa Zsa Poltergeist had Focal Distonia before it was cool!🧤

Now I know it's not taken anymore, I'm considering Eileen Regina Edwards.

If you're in Scotland and you're struggling to source either bubble wrap or gaffa tape.... this guy is your problem!🤣 I had a few CDs from Mike just now, all arrived with me in absolutely great condition, he took absolutely no chances with the packaging, even Hermes couldn't hurt them. Great friendly comms from the start, and a quick turnaround. Highly recommended.

The most obvious to me is on the Mamas and Papas 'I saw her again'. The false start in the third chorus. Apparently they did try to kill it, but it was still there in other mics. https://youtu.be/4vaIBZCLUQU

My L5 has no dive at all, and comes in at about 8.1lbs. I do wonder whether the posh neck wood (mine's just regular maple) has anything to do with it?... it just 'looks' heavier to me.

I run my octaver in the loop at the moment, after the dirt and before the modulation effects, and it has the tracking to handle it well, although it's never on at the same time as any modulation. It's the sound I want. It's all academic anyway now, as I've put a pre-order in. I'd appreciate knowing where in the chain the loop is positioned?

I don't go for the 'didn't understand it' line... I did, and it was less useful than it could have been, and the lack of FX loop denying me a solid octave before the DI was the killer. Definitely considering a pre-order on this though, the pre section was great, and honestly I think it's the first bass chorus I ever found that I really liked. It's great when companies take things on board.

Tidy! The lack of FX loop is what led me to ditch the Mk1... If only they'd have fixed the Octafilter section though... everything else on it was brilliant.

I learn the bass part until I've totally got it, then I learn the vocal line until I've totally got that too... then I sit and busk to myself with both. A lot of it just falls into place, and it's often just a couple of little bits that are tricky, where the bass part trips the vocal up or vice versa... Just hammer away at those bits, repetition, like everything else.

Had a Motorbass pedal from Simon. Dead easy deal and quick to post. Thanks!

Ian Bought my 3 Leaf Octabvbvbvbre! Couldn't have been easier or friendlier to deal with. Many thanks

We'd be in a lot of treble!

I bought a Shuker from Paul. The whole thing couldn't have been easier or friendlier. Great, pleasant, helpful communication throughout, very welcoming, and a pleasure to deal with. Cheers!

No matter what I try, no matter how well reputed or expensive, I always end up realising that D'Addarios sound better and last longer at a considerably lower price, and end up going back to them.

That's awesome!

Congratulations both!😎

Another tricky month, it took a fair bit to get it down to just 3. Well done everyone!

Whereas I bought something with a lesser name for considerably less, because I'm not a snob and tone is in the fingers anyway.... or something.
