I think it's like a lot of others, switching individual effects on and off within a preset is seamless, just like a pedal would be, but I'm not sure about switching presets while playing - I don't do it, and I think there's a tiny delay when you do? I'll check next time I'm playing if I remember.

Buuuuump. Might take on offer on this. -
I was going to say get some from Professional Audio Cables, hand made with Neutrik plugs and good quality cable, but TBH reading above it sounds like Dave does the same anyway. I like the Neutrik silent plugs (the ones that mute when you unplug them) for the instrument end.

I went through a similar search (see here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/266971-overdrive-suggestions/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1[/url] ), I ended up with a OneControl Hooker's Green Bassmachine which did what you're after, and a DHA VT1, also highly recommended. I tried a Solid Gold FX Beta and it was very nice. Then I got a Markbass multiamp and sold most stuff, but tellingly I kept hold of the DHA despite the size and 12v power.

Price drop, now £15 posted Having switched to flatwounds (and no frets!) on my 5 string, I have for sale a brand new set of Overwater Nickel roundwound strings (I liked to have a set in hand). They're medium gauge, .044 to 0.134, and what Overwater call "Regular" aka long scale basses 34" - 35". Still in the box, although it's a tiny bit squashed from being in my gig bag for a few months.

Not looking for any trades thanks. [attachment=208746:strings.jpg] -

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1450122453' post='2929853'] Think Darkglass, but more aggressive and more distorted, its a beast of a pedal [/quote] Nice description! Still for sale...

Here's another sale that's only as a result of my recent MarkBass Multiamp purchase. Crown XLS1500 Class D Power amp, rated 775 watts per side at 2ohm, 535 watts per side at 4ohm or 300 watts per side at 8 ohm. I used this with a Sansamp RBI preamp and 2 MarkBass Traveler speakers, 8ohm each, one on each side and barely used 1/4 of the volume. Some good features for a bass power amp, you can run it fine with speakers only on one side, so I had my 2x10 on it's own for rehearsals and then added the 1x15 on the other channel for gigs. As it's stereo, you can tweak the volume of each speaker and don't need to worry about them being balanced I don't think. For bigger gigs all I would have needed to do was chain the 2 x 8 ohm cabs on one side and add 2 more, or a 4 ohm, on the other and that would have given me 1000W+. For crazy volume it will do the full 1500W with 2 ohm speakers. Another nice feature is the "Input Y" setting, which sends the left input to both channels so you don't need stereo out on your preamp, and as a bonus you can use the right channel input as a pass through to feed a desk etc. And then there's the weight and size, it's 2u but not very deep and it weighs just under 4kg. All the specs and details here: [url="http://www.crownaudio.com/en-US/products/xls-1500"]http://www.crownaudi...oducts/xls-1500[/url] Excellent power amp if you already get the tone you want from your preamp, which also means you get more like the same sound FOH as through your bass rig. Boxed with manual and power lead, not a mark on it anywhere, less than a year old and has never been pushed even vaguely hard. £195 posted in the UK (Hermes, properly insured).

[quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1449669571' post='2925790'] ... and an Ibanez [url="http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/electric_guitars_detail.asp?stock=13120714083658"]http://www.guitargui...=13120714083658[/url] that fall within the budget and would do the job well. [/quote] I'm looking at an Ibanez Baritone, maybe next year some time. They can be had for less than that, around £450 anyway: [url="http://www.andertons.co.uk/solid-body-electric-guitars/pid31907/cid671/ibanez-rgib6-iron-label-baritone-electric-guitar-in-black.asp"]http://www.andertons.co.uk/solid-body-electric-guitars/pid31907/cid671/ibanez-rgib6-iron-label-baritone-electric-guitar-in-black.asp[/url]

Quick bump, still for sale

I've recently had my second string bass de-fretted, and it's inspired me to mess about with some Cuban-ish bass lines, inspired pretty much exclusively by Cachaito Lopez. I'm learning a few lines and melodically they seem to fit really well against what I already play, which is mainly blues based - they seem almost to be "Latin Blues" to me, maybe that's why the only "Latin" music I've ever liked is Cuban. What's new is the rhythm, it seems very natural to play to but I don't have the knowledge to create backing tracks to play along to. I can probably just get some from Groove Monkey but I need to know what I'm after. So, to get down it, can anyone tell me how to describe the beat / percussion on something like this: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IudnOvyXdk"]https://www.youtube....h?v=-IudnOvyXdk[/url] ? or this: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y665wQIg0dY"]https://www.youtube....h?v=Y665wQIg0dY[/url] ? I'm guessing it's all Clave based? It's quite exciting, probably my first real foray out of blues / rock based stuff.

I've switched between guitar and bass a few times, and I never bother with guitars with tremolo arms any more, in fact I much prefer not to have one. If you really need wammy on something a wammy pedal does it loads better nowadays anyway!

We've got some new songs so we're getting ourselves warmed up by playing at The Hop in Leeds on Sunday 6th. It's the "Sunday Gathering" so there will be other acts (often mostly acoustic but it varies) on before us, and then we'll be on about 8. The Hop's always worth a visit, it's a nice bar. It's originals, in the blues / rock / funk kind of area - yeah, I know that doesn't help much It's good though, lot's of groove to it and only one guitar so you can hear the bass There's a link to our website below, none of the super new stuff on there so come and check it out.

I'm tempted just to move to Germany and have done with it. The Mrs isn't keen though.
-
Last price drop before I try it elsewhere.
-
I'm having a lot of fun with the free Groove Monkey tracks, I can see some of my hard earned going their way eventually if the paid for stuff is as good.

Frank bough an overdrive from me and everything was smooth and easy, a genuine pleasure doing business.

Bump!

Bump!

Nearly forgot I had this up for sale! Bump, make me an offer if you like. Can't quite understand the lack of interest in it, but there ya go.

Steve bought my dbx160A, very easy to deal with, paid straight away and everything went smoothly. Perfect, thanks!

Bump for the price drop, still happy for sensible offers.

Price Drop: [b]£95 [/b]Posted [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]DOD / Black Arts Boneshaker Distortion[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This is a good one, it was aimed at Baritone and Bass and it works well. It's a nice nasty distortion, and the depth control means you can get lots of low end. On top of that, there's a 3 band parametric eq (3 x stacked eq knobs) so you can dial in exactly the tone you want. It has such a massive range that once you get the hang you can easily find the right tone. It also seems to do a much better distorted low end than some of the others I've tried, so rather than keep undistorted lows with distorted highs you get distorted low end that still sounds good. I thought this one had the most consistent sound over the whole fretboard, where a lot of others sound very different on the high notes to the low.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It's basically brand new, I bought it as new[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] on here and have just had a bit of a play at home, literally an hour or so.
