The advertising is a bit off IMO.

If Kenny’s run out, Amazon have them as well. About a 14 day wait though.......oh, and £105 plus £15 postage 😂😂😂😂

The iOS thing seems to be a bit of a marketing thing, it looks just like it’s a 1/8 in and nothing iOS specific. Also a pain to use with a current iOS device without an adapter as they don’t have a headphone out. There is no USB at all on these devices.

I know Tim has many fans on here. Just came across his rig rundown video. Lots of Tech 21 stuff, as expected, although not plugged in.

Kenny’s was the place I got a really good deal on my P34. Only ever used them that one time but the service was great.

Just a FYI. Not sure if this has been mentioned, or even if anyone cares, but I just found out that my Stomp works as an audio interface with my iPad Pro. It’s not perfect, due to what seems to be a lack of record volume control on the iPad, but Ive managed to record a 3 track project in Garage band without issues. Will investigate more later tonight. This came about with me wanting to use my Scarlett interface with the iPad, which also works perfectly well.

Wow, that is a chunky bridge. That photo makes it look like your kitchen work surface has a bass bridge attached lol.

Can you shim the neck? If it’s not a through neck then put a piece of business card in the neck pocket and that will allow you to raise the saddles and still have a low action. I actual do this to all my basses (not done the Yamahas yet though). It also gives a more consistent action along the whole neck.

I wonder how many times we will hear that Sorrow fill in other songs now. I’m trying to get it to fit in Mustang Sally 😂

Have you tried the synth patches on the Dr Tonelab website?

The book is really good. Well worth getting. Not a Spector, but I got my jazz bass out after seeing the first vid.

Guy has just posted Like a prayer.

And the bugger makes it look so easy 🤔

This is quite funny, and very true, especially the intro’s bit.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes perfect sense. I’d use it the same way.

Yes, the book has quite a few of those ‘ah, so it was Guy’ moments in it. Love the book. It’s the only book ive read twice in the past 20 years. Also agree about Pulse. I downloaded it after reading the book, as I’m not really a PF fan, and its an album i put on when i want to relax.

Cool story. I recently watched it all again on YT. Its one of my fav TV series. Love the interaction between the band members, and the music is great. Luckily I brought the CD when it first came out, doesn’t seem to be available now.

This, and The Young Person's Guide to Becoming a Rock Star was when i first became away of Guy. I still have both albums on my phone.

New video posted today. Still not showing any bass stuff.

Always been a fan of Guy’s. Very good feel to his playing. I started following him on FB recently and been waiting for todays YT video. Also a fan of the Jimmy Nail Album so this is a great first vid. Might just have been me but his ‘bass face’ Reminded me of Tim Starace (YYNot).

Cheers guys. I’m finding it hard to have any GAS while in lockdown. With no band or gigs in the immediate future ive sort of lost interest in gear as such. Once things start to get back to normal this is top of the list of things to try.

Ok, this is really pushing me in the right direction now. Am i right in thinking the pedal doesn’t have amp sims as such, and that the presets In the manual are just EQ variations to simulate the named rig?

I really dont know why people knock Bob. He did an amazing job re launching the careers of many washed up bands/pop stars, and the whole time suffered a huge lack of (any) talent. Give the bloke a break 😀

True, but he has a point. At least for me. Give me someone keeping a tight groove going anytime over all that show off stuff that seems to only be there to prove a point. They can all do it of course, but its knowing when to do it, and when not to do the ‘look how many notes I can play slightly out of time with the song using moire notes than my bass actuator has’ bass lines. That noise Jaco made with his bass is one of the most annoying bass tones ive ever heard. Cant listen to him for more than....just cant listen to him at all actually. Obviously just my opinion of course.

🥱🥱🥱🥱 😄
