Just as well that is not a fretted 5 string!

I had a Bolin NS bass and the piezo pickup was just sublime. I still miss it

Or me.

I am going to spend some happy time with this when life calms down next week. Thanks.

I always hope that something less expensive will be capable of something similar .......

Anything that lets me do this (even with shocking playing) is fine by me Future Impact.wav

I love it. It does what I had always hoped I would find in a synth pedal. Some adjustment for some patches, but it is a new instrument so I would expect to adjust, like any pedal really. I have to adjust when using my OC2. I have to adjust using a Boss Slicer. But that is fine.

Thanks for the directions. It looks like my friend who was saving up for re-shells has timed it rather poorly

Yeah yeah yeah - tuners, string anchors, blah blah blah. SHOW US THE WOOD!

Where re-shells UE900s?

So as to provide closure to my original request I worked that I could go into alternate tunings on the DB to create the harmonic structures I was looking for and therefore the capo became redundant. It was fun while it lasted though!

I just bought a Demeter preamp from yur man Chris 10 minutes ago. He will post it mid week. We all know it will be fine

You have to respect a guy who has just plowed his own furrow when commercial success was obviously in a different direction.

It is a very simple glue job. Packing it securely will cost more than getting it glued. The only extra expense will happen when the luthier asks if you want the board trued, a new bridge and soundpost.

No it is not! I found a 2nd hand one and mistook the price for a new one.

Thanks all, I will go and look at the Ventris, but it is the same price as the big sky Financial sadness.

It is just one setting on the Neunaber and a bowed Double Bass doing harmonics. You load all their different pedals in to the slate so I am not sure which it is tbh. I will have a look.

Here is the sustain thing happening.

I really fancy the chorale noises the Big Sky makes. And the shimmer stuff. I have a Neunaber set up which does a lovely shimmer thing and a really great kind of infinite reverb thing. I will post an example of that in a moment. Superlong tails that can be left running while the effect is out of line. See next post for example. Can I get this chorale kind of effect on a unit that does not cost the wrong side of 400 quid? I could flog the Nunaber set up (slate 2 + exp) to offset cost but that also has a useful freeze function for sustaining notes. Humph
