I had a Le bass and replaced it with the Revolt. Both are great would say they are different rather than one is better than the other. I do miss the hot/cold fusion in the Le Bass, I used to get a great hot tube amp grind in hot fusion which I can’t get from the Revolt. channel A on the Revolt is revoiced (Ampeg style) and is better than the Le Bass channel A, but it is very clean Channel B (Marshall super bass) is really good as well. Channel c is great fun and super heavy aggressive but not really used by me except for a bit of fun. it’s a shame you cannot blend A with C as the channel C blend is just dry bass ( which is fine) and I wish they had kept the Fusion option as I do miss that. Overall Revolt is slightly better sounding on all 3 channels, but the Le Bass was more flexible for a more bespoke sound. You won’t go Wrong with the Revolt, it’s straight out of the box everything at 12 sounds are all great and it won’t disappoint, but if you really miss the Le Bass features like Fusion you may want to look for one second hand.

Spark at 100% and Mojo at 50% both sound great, mojo at 25-30% i reckon would sound the best

I owned a Battalion once, nice little prdal as a low mid budget pedal. Get nice tone from it. The drive is an acquired taste its harsh but with blend dualled back can get some subtle grit. Compressor ok will do a job if you just want some light always on compressor. Had some amps with built in compressor as well and they i would say are the same just ok.Think if you really want good compression with more defined dynamics even in pedal form you wont get it in a preamp, be better with a keeley bass or Seymour duncan bass compressor, both under £200. The MXR M80 i would say is better than the battalion but its a bit more money and no compressor. if you have a larger budget The Two notes revolt bass is very underrated, real tube built in so has more natural compression & Dynamics on channel A & B but no dedicated compressor.

American made Gibson EB4 twin humbucker with coil tap switch. with coil tap on bridge pickup get that old EB sound. Both humbuckers on get a big Tbird sound, can do load boomy rock grit or nice subtle Motown sounds. Ash body super light bass Home use never gigged. comes with its own Gibson gig bag, and Gibson strap. selling due to house move. I travel a little for work North east/west midlands often, so drop off available. no trades.

Two notes le bass or revolt bass real tube built in multi channels fraction of the cost from well known brand. Cannot recommend either enough if you want that real tube bass magic

Nice this arrived from Andertons today, only had it a couple of hours and enjoying playing with it. Its lovely cute looking artwork as-well. Massive range and head room, slight boost up to 9 o clock 9-12 subtle warm break up after 12 into heavier but responsive overdrive after 3 starts getting more full on distortion. It seems dynamic response is the main selling point on this pedal and its superb at that, when dig in. need to find the sweet spot for the tone. You do start to loose a little low end at higher gain and higher tone, but not massively and all bass distortions do that. Tone seems more boost only so seems to suit being off altogether or up to 11oclock. For me anyway. highly recommended this for anyone one wanting a highly responsive dig in low grit but it also can work hard. link to manufacture https://animalspedal.us/products/animals-pedal-surfing-polar-bear-bass-overdrive-mod-by-bjf

Two notes Revolt, channel A clean channel, real Tube inside, gain master Treble and bass sounds so nice everything at 12 or 12-2pm (other settings available) bonus if 2 extra channels should you need an alternative channel B Marshall super base style, channel C sone crazy modern metal overdrive. But worth it for the Clean for a Noble esq sound Gain at 12-2 bass at 2 Treble 11-12. I get a better Noble sound than the Helix Noble patch, the Tube gives you that warm dynamic.

Farty is defo flat battery. Funnily enough I've had batteries 🪫 easily last 3+ years with 1-2 hours playing a day. Although i have 3 current active bass’s so doing “the math” thats about a year each. all though my ibby in my profile pic has never changed the battery and its 5-6 years old, but i mostly play in on passive mode.

month in replaced the strings with a brand new set of Newtone platinum rounds with round cores. sounds super nice, lovely warm broke in with that bit of natural grit.

Manchester based pedal company This sounds great £200 for boutique pedal is not that bad a price.

My Tech 21 Deuce deluxe powered speaker, got it as B stock had it 5 years now, might be ready for an upgrade to something new in the improving FRFR range.

This look’s line a serious bit of kit, wonder if they will do a bass version? https://www.andertons.co.uk/dsm-humboldt/dsm-and-humboldt-simplifier-x-dual-preamp-and-cab-sim-analogue-stereo-pedal?&utm_campaign=GUITAR-DSM-Simplifier-X-2304&utm_source=emarsysemail&utm_medium=email&sc_src=email_13942583&sc_lid=865438874&sc_uid=BhCpN1euMH&sc_llid=21589&sc_eh=11e0b5f85ea3a42b1
