  1. Agreed with the above - got a 5 string Aguilar P in my Wingbass and it’s rather tasty.
  2. If you’re looking for tiny, durable and reliable - get yourself a Radial StageBug SB2. Radial do several versions geared toward specific instruments and connector types. The SB2 is catered for bass and keys. I’m currently using a couple of these on a live theatre gig and they do the job perfectly with zero fuss. Completely passive. Costs around £60-70 if I recall, and worth every penny.
  3. Tecamp Puma 900 or the newer version of the same amp, the Eich T900. The Eich is over your budget but if you can find a used Puma 900 you’ll be well under budget and laughing. I used to own a Puma 900 - it was absurdly light and absurdly powerful. You won’t find smaller and lighter elsewhere with that kind of horsepower. I also used to own a TC Electronic BH800 and frankly it was also excellent. Not as small or light as the Tecamp but the upside was the incredibly well thought-out EQ in which each knob operates at a different frequency depending on if you’re boosting or cutting. Very very clever and a great clean sounding head. Some dismissed TonePrint feature as a gimmick but I found it genuinely useful to have several versions of (for example) a compressor and maybe some drive, easily changed via the Toneprint app. Ive never personally used a Quilter but I’ve heard nothing but good things so I’m sure you’d enjoy it. Seems to have a pretty unique EQ layout which is cool but may not necessarily be for everyone.
  4. To be fair, that would look delicious!
  5. I remember drooling over this when it was last up for sale here. My reaction is the same now
  6. I used to have one of these and it was truly excellent.
  7. The ultra is 6 pounds?! Bloody hell. Looks like Fender have taken some serious leaves out of Sandberg’s SuperLight book
  8. Ha! I’m doing Panto at the New Wolsey Theatre - acting and playing bass in the show which is a whole lot of fun but very sweaty work!
  9. Very nice basses. I’m working in Ipswich at the moment too which is pretty dangerous!
  10. Just spotted this D-Bird (Bird!!) Custom 5 stringer at Session Music - it ain’t cheap but to whoever buys it, it’s a keeper! https://www.session.de/DINGWALL-D-Bird-Custom-5-String-EB-DWM.html
  11. Good work sir!
  12. Really? D-Bird below... And the new D-Roc headstock... Have to say I preferred the more bevelled edge of the D-Bird head but it’s still more attractive than a lot of headstocks out there!
  13. Sorry to hear this @obbm, but hope the move and the retirement are both enjoyable! Does this mean you’ve ceased taking custom orders already or are you still “open for business” for a little longer?
  14. Get yourself a Line 6 HX Stomp. Seamless integration with iPhone and iPad, connected via USB your iOS device just automatically sees it as a sound card and starts sending audio to it. Obviously this may be a tad over your budget but it just works and gives you a ton of options.
  15. Whoa. Some heavyweight pedals here!
  16. I have nothing to put this in and yet I’m still tempted GLWTS
  17. They are genuinely excellent basses at any money - The fact it took basses 5 times the cost (at least) to dethrone my BB735a speaks volumes.
  18. That looks sick!
  19. Best without question - my Dingwall Super PJ5. It’s so good that I’m very seriously considering placing a custom order with Dingwall for a Super J5 next year. My worst is probably the Future Impact pedal I owned briefly but didn’t get any use out of. This is zero reflection on the pedal itself which can create some excellent sounds - I simply didn’t put any time aside to get to grips with it and then life happened, requiring me to raise some funds. It fell onto the chopping block and a willing buyer snapped it up. I may well own one again, especially after the release of the latest firmware.
  20. Perhaps we should start an IEM porn thread?
  21. Ah I didn’t realise that. Still, 9 blocks is great.
  22. Especially when there’s no block limit!
  23. I do this myself. All my patches have a HPF and a noise gate set up on the input block as standard. If I had to choose only one though, it would be the noise gate all day long. Most underrated effect ever IMO, both for recording and live use!
