I have fancied one of these for a very long time. Happy Jack was selling one and I jumped. I have it set up at my weekly residency (church). As we are all aware, bass is never allowed to be loud enough anywhere. So as to keep a quiet stage we have moved to wired in ears and the drummer and I are sitting in front of the FOH feeling the LF as best we can. To make it more fun, my ears are shot so I have to wear earplugs to play. I was just listening through those. But sitting on a chair on the bass board is a total game changer. The volume does not go up, but the physical interaction is a lot more real. In the spirit of the BC self build cabs, I feel certain that people who are not DIY clueless could easily build their own ones. And also improve them by putting a plate amp in there. Just thinkin'......

I know nothing of this stuff. But Brave plays YT with no adverts. This is a good reason to use it, if for no other reason.

Thanks Tony. Sum, we should talk.

Mmmmmmm. Yummmy!

I feel your pain.

I was a Backbeat early adopter. There are all sorts of portability advantages to a backbeat. But the big Bass Board with double drivers is where it is at for me. I want everyone to experience it. It is essentially two of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Douk-Audio-BS-1-Bass-Shaker/dp/B0F9KN762P/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.cGvkT4Fcj-j_XkgPZA9rxeDwx5B3hTFbRg06HA36tvxJa_STNGLFwG0AtNDRydZrICABWZ5dXGEtuxEjceJPAGSjujMONeFRw7x6ytx_Oi75cvWPtJDdm63ogH5qTe9JgGPMm9YKuJLmD6JlzDTI1A.OoCq2CWh8y3yrMx9n-sf0NxnkZaNL9wy7_NvMk6zVKM&dib_tag=se&keywords=buttkicker&qid=1763928883&sr=8-1&th=1 screwed to a board with a cheap amp driving it. It cannot be rocket science.

It will come as no surprise to anyone that I did not actually build one. However, I recently picked up anEich Bass Board from Happy Jack. It is giving me IMMENSE joy. I played without it recently and realised how much I enjoy it. I can play at volumes which no one questions, but enjoy super LF action.

I am awaiting a full report!

Fusion!!!!

Respect is due.

When your boing has been boinged out.

Happy days Kit is great when it works and the absolute worst when it does not.

The stuggle is real.

I would be intersted to hear that. Sadly, the link does not guide me anywhere. Could you update?

The P is about as standard as they come. When I say they are old, they are at least 20 years old so it might be that they are just super mature and all the boing has been boinged out of them.

I have a very, very old set of Chromes on a P bass. They are perfection. I fancied the 5 string experience. So I put a set on a 33" bass I have. This has a bar behind the nut as an all purpose string retainer thang. It was horrible. They were tight and super unforgiving. Was this because of the vicious break angle behind the nut? This does not feel like an issue with the round core nickels I have on the bass usually.

Oooooh. That gives me all sorts of ideas.

What a bunch of absolute geeks. I salute you all

I have a long history of buying multi FX things and not using them because the editing options just make my head spin. So then I sell them. When I got the Tonex some time ago I messed with the editor and it was not intuitive for me and it went into a drawer. I messed with it again last night. There has been an editor update in the meantime and it is doing exactly what I hoped it would in a way that was really easy. Thank you Tonex bods.
