Ray J P PJ Humbucker In no particular order you need them all or at least have tried

Agreed with above if you want Ray don’t get an L2k. The L1500 has a powerful but very harsh inherent treble like sound which you may or may not like. Don’t be put off by it if you like the bass as you can easily mod the innards and make the treble less harsh, and increase the ability of bass roll off and head into sub territory by adding another capacitor on the back of one of the pots and changing the R7 resistor on the pre-amp. 10 min soldering job. Good basses them G&Ls

Back to my Logs and flapping trousers again.....It is Yuletide

Ahhhhhh well spotted Sympathetic overdrive (as opposed to parasympathetic) is definitely the best for tube emulation

When my speaker farts out, it not only sounds bad it also smells bad

Someone wrote on it with a sharpie

But in those 3 points you are cherry picking what you want to hear and skewing the argument if you take it in isolation. How about “you just won’t sound ‘better’ *wink*” and ”...bass is an instrument that really benefits from compression” ”...compression is an enigmatic....tool amongst bass players” People will always fit an argument for what they want, or if not understood find a reason to call it futile.

@Skol303 i’d Read that, sadly some will stare into the abyss and dismiss. You should include which the best compressor for metal is as well....

As they say Always by your side.... Cracking company

Glad you got a sound you like, that’s the most important, but no compression going on in that chain........!!

Expert in my own household only

@paul_c2 ha! At some point something will mask being poor I agree, but I am not talking Milli Vanilli poor - although their dancing was ok. You knew what I was getting at though really!

As you know @Al KrowI am fully aware of compressors vs limiters vs limiter compressors, but you have encapsulated and confirmed the point that a limiter is a compressor, so.........if you say there is no need for a compressor but for a limiter, that is contradictory. Thats without getting into modulation, distortion, tubes etc compressing sound blah blah blah ad nauseum. All that aside, it’s whatever works for each musician and using anything in general should not be used as poor craft or musicianship as is sometimes brandished around, it’s just choice

A limiter to all intensive purposes is a compressor with the ratio hovering at about 20:1. This is why the argument that I don’t need a compressor, but a limiter is required is bolderdash.

Ah that old chestnut, compression is fine in the studio, but live has little or no place...... But as @HazBeen says, the right choice for people is the right choice for people

The ST puts out what you put in and goes very loud: its that simple

2 super 12’s for stage monitoring and audience ear bashing. Supertwin is a joy to carry and has wheels on the cab - go on, you know you want to!

The Barefaced Cabs are very modular and easily go together size wise and stacking should it be required and as long as you are matching the right lot together. It may also be that rather than stack 2 small, getting one big will be better and still leave you with a one hand carry. Pick right for your needs, you get it right

Supertwin rules. If you want coloured and Barefaced go One10, 210, 410, 610, 810 or some form of modular version of those

He is a good chap - pleasure to deal with
