That sounds like a pretty close description of the PC-2A!
-
Yes, very organic and round. It was a compressor that @Osiris suggested as he is familiar with our music and it was a perfect recommendation.

Firstly, paging @Osiris Secondly I have the Effectrode PC-2A. I play semi-hollow short scale basses in an acoustic duo and the mellow warmth of the PC-2A is second to none, lovely. Where are you @bassjamm? You are welcome to try it out any time.

Anyone else find Electronic Drums weird?

Ah, except I was the drummer for Ian Jury and the Blockheads along with Roy What? Normandy on bass. -
I specifically bought the Waza Craft tuner because it matched my preamp, but then I bought a white compressor... 🙄

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
Frank Blank replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I have tried out the Gretsch short scales and they are way heavier than they look. I had a Nordstrand Acinonyx and I was concerned about just how narrow the string spacing was but it played beautifully and was comfortable and stupidly light. I regret selling mine on and am seriously contemplating getting another. -

Paging @EBS_freak...

Hmmmm, deepest dub techno, atmospheric ambient, liquid drum'n'bass from Russia, listening on YouTube...

Go to Newtone Strings and get them to make up a set exactly to your own specs. I use them on all my short scale basses.

Counter-intuitively there is no noticeable change to flatulence pitch, however, oddly, one's pïss goes bright green.

Not if it involves being filled with helium from behind.

I have won the day 383 times, almost exclusively off-topic posts in the DOI, something I'm rather embarrassed about. I would personally prefer for off-topic posts not to garner statistics, after all, this is a site specifically for the discussion of bass. There should, of course, be an off-topic section but the fact that I have won the day so often for making funny posts on a obscure branch of off-topic when there are hundreds of expert bass players sharing priceless information seems faintly ridiculous to me.

Once upon a time it was just folk, rock, pop, country, blues.

Actually it's me. I work for Spotify under the moniker of Genre and Subgenre Nomenclature Officer. The criteria used are me chucking darts at dictionary pages. Smooth Wotocheshede Tech Slam is next in line for a nanosecond of fame, blink and you'll miss it. -

I've moved on the two Rob Allen basses and now exclusively play two @Jabba_the_gut basses, they are perfect for the music we play so they get gigged.
-
I know two bass players who have instruments they gig and have also bought basses as an investment, they are both most definitely bass players.
