  1. As the title suggests, I'm considering buying a darkglass dg212n, but the cloth grille really puts me off. Does anyone know of an aftermarket steel grille for these Darkglass speaker cabs? I'm also considering the Gallien Krueger equivalent, or *maybe* Mesa Subway if I can stretch that far... Thanks all!
  2. I stopped DI-ing from my Tech 21 VT Bass 500 head in favour of this thing haha. I'll have to look for a Capo at some point then. I'm in the search for a new 1x15 bass cab first though.
  3. Cracking piece of kit, doubly so at this price.
  4. Tempting. My 2x12 could do with a big brother....i don't think I have the room. Great sounding cabs, despite the weird design.
  5. Insane price for a new Epiphone, but at least than £500, I'd have one.
  6. Toto 'Hold the Line'.... I know, I know but it's well out of my doom metal wheelhouse. It's a cracking song.
  7. Wasn't the thing with the Grabber, the moveable pickup? I assume this isn't? If I saw one at a good price, I'd snap this up though. They still sound great even without the gimmick.
  8. I have a Charvette (by Charvel) body that needs a new neck. It's my first bass, so it's nostalgia really. It was never *that* good. My luthier told me that the neck is no good; truss rod has broken somewhere. The 'made in Japan' Gotoh tuners are nice though. It's encouraging to see this type of thing. I will measure the neck pocket, and go from there.
  9. Anyone know how good/awful the fretless version turned out to be? I haven't seen any reviews.
  10. This is one of the few punk albums from my teens that I still listen to. NOFX' Punk in Drublic has some good lines too. Al Cisneros was a huge influence on me. Dragonaut is the riff I play first whenever I try a new bass...or fuzz pedal.
  11. I have this. It is actually amazing! I had some knock off stuff from Dunelm when I misplaced it temporarily...it was bad 😅
  12. I'm reasonably handy with building stuff , so yes I'm more likely to build one. This board is at least 7 years old. Built like a tank. Never had an issue getting pedals to stick! The Splinter pedal has an awful rubber back that hates adhesive though. That will need cable ties *if it stays*. I'm constantly changing stuff; the tuner, chorus and Digbeth DB-pre are the only constants (until the Empress arrived!).
  13. Current state. DIY board. Cioks DC7 underneath. New Empress Bass Compressor today. It is so much better than my Orange Kongpressor with an active bass. I've had the Swollen pickle for a long time but I don't really like it. I might put the DOD Carcosa back on. I also have a zvex Woolly Mammoth clone, but it's a weird size so it doesn't fit. The Splinter is cool, but maybe a bit to fuzzy. Will probably swap back for the Joyo Double Thruster (Darkglass BK3 copy?) I'm buying a Kink Audio Dozer fuzz from a member, so.....who knows?! I'm contemplating buying a commercially made board, but might just make a new one with room for 2 more pedals.
  14. He was always a great player, and he could sing along too. I don't agree with his politics, but that's irrelevant. I used to love the band. I got a bit bored after Heavy Petting Zoo though.
  15. I still have pedals from 30+ years ago! I love the idea of the Atlas though. Missing out on functionality because an app is no longer supported is a bit disappointing.
  16. I have an Empress Bass Compressor arriving tomorrow (£217 from Juno). I was agonising between that and the Source Audio Atlas. I figured that the Empress would have better longevity, given that it doesn't rely on external app support etc. I hope I don't regret my decision.
  17. True, and I did it once, but I didn't like permanently changing my bass. It was more limiting.
  18. The extra low notes are vital for my preferred genre; Doom metal. I know a lot of players use a 4, but I like having the extra range and choice of notes. I still love my 4 string glasses, which I tend to use for other types of music.
  19. We aren't *all* monsters 😅
  20. Living room sofa noodling - whatever bass is close through a zoom B10n multi FX and some cheap headphones. Proper practice - bass through my pedal board, into a Behringer audio interface, into a Mac, with Amplitube 4. Output is usually some Shure monitoring headphones, but I also have studio monitors, but prefer the headphones. I rarely practice with my amp at home; crappy terraced house.
  21. Horna The new LP is great fun. This is them live a while back at Kilkim Zaibu, a festival I'd love to attend.
  22. These are awesome. I'd buy it if I did t already own one.
  23. I don't want the HM2 sound. The early demos of the MM made me think of polish bands like Mgla and Terrestrial Hospice. Not a lot of BM bands use fuzz (traditionally), so it's quite distinctive. I'm a fuzz guy for bass and guitar; I'm mainly a black and doom metal player. I have several ODs and Modern Distortion pedals. I tried the EHX Hell Melter, but it's not what I want either. The insanity of the ring mod and lack of blend were my problem with the MM. If that's what you want, it's great I suppose.
  24. If it had a blend, I think I would have kept it. It was bonkers but too much for me. Try before you buy it you can. Luke (I think?) from Holy Island Audio is a decent bloke; send him a message to talk about what you're after?
