    So, finally got around to dropping a little sound demo of the Tone Mallet, & IMO? It sounds pretty damn great! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCzoKvSR1cb/?igsh=N203dW12dWlwY3Qw

    James at Affordaboard’s posting me one out to demo, should be with me early next week. I’ll post my findings & some demos once I get a chance to record.

    Mine’s grown into something that simply fits my needs without having to swap out pedals from gig to gig.

    Actually, I don’t even gig with that head, I found that for most stuff I do, 900 watts is far too much. So, that EQ’s definitely in no semblance of anything I’d use on a gig 😂

    I really like it, I ordered one after seeing the last BasstheWorld video on it. It’s basically just classic bass drive, but very nicely done! Really intuitive to use, & works great in a live mix too. I chucked up a couple of demos on my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-sur6PtIdg/?igsh=NDNncDVsbDhnc20z

    Well, tone wise? Wildly different, the P’s much hotter, & obviously sounds like a PJ, but in terms of playability etc? They’re pretty identical! Same neck & body on them, other than routing!

    Back on BassChat after many years of inactivity… & many pedalboard changes. Here’s my current board, nothing crazy, but I like to think all nice toys that are useful!

    So, I have a Charvel San Dimas PJ, & I love how it feels & plays… but I’m not super happy with the sound. I’ve been keeping it around to use on rock gigs, but last weekend I was out on a couple of indie rock/pop gigs… & I wasn’t overly stoked with it in context. (Overly attacky, not a whole lot of body to the sound & left me thinking “My Lakland would have done this way better”) Leaving me with a couple of options… either sell it & buy something else, or swap out the pickups. I’m thinking the Nordstrand NP5F would be a potential shout, but see basically nothing about them. Anyone using one? What do you think?

    Hey all! So, I’ve been pretty inactive on here for QUITE some while. Figured it’d make sense to reintroduce myself. I’m Danny, from Stoke. Mostly playing bass with various pop artists & depping on covers gigs, since I’ve yet to find my “forever covers band” tried rock covers, which I found pretty dull, did some metal covers for afew years with decent returns. Had a pretty great festival & wedding season this year, not as good as I’m assuming a lot of people have had… it’s getting my foot in the door! Ashdown artist, 5 string & pedal enthusiast!
  11. Higgins.plays.bass
    Popping this up, I’m not gigging it very much (think it’s done… maybe 3 this year? Festivals & a wedding) and I want something a little less rock & roll. Fantastic playing & sounding bass, wonderful neck, roasted maple with luminlay side dots, rolled edges, all of the modern appointments. Has a great, & very punchy sound from the Dimarzio pickups. Whilst the split coil isn’t branded, it was designed & manufactured by Dimarzio. The preamp, it’s ok, not the best preamp ever, but definitely not like some reviewers slated. You’ll only get noise by cranking the treble control, & who does that, really? Cash, or bank transfer accepted. Can ship, at buyers expense. Will also consider trades, 5 string Jazz bass, or passive P basses, Warwicks, G&L, Reverend, maybe a Maruszczyk Jake if someone’s getting rid of one? 👀
  12. Higgins.plays.bass
    Could I possibly have it? Just gotten a project bass that could do with a preamp!
  13. Higgins.plays.bass
    Haven't posted in a while, but here's my current pedalboard!
  14. Higgins.plays.bass
    Hey Steve, is this still available?
  15. Higgins.plays.bass
    Just got the Big Muff & Small Stone today, so I retweaked my board. Pretty happy with it!
  16. Higgins.plays.bass
    Just picked up this modded Squier Jazz fretless off a friend for £60, it's been refinished with a brush & given that road worn look! I'm loving the playability of it, feels great, & fretless feels really organic & natural! It's currently strung with roundwounds, but I'm gonna put some flatwounds on there, I have a set of Chromes lying around. Kinda want to put a 1 play black pickguard on it now, does anyone know where the best place to get one is?

    So, I'm Danny, 28 from Stoke. Currently between bands, but that doesn't stop me working on my chops, waiting to find a new band. Trying to school myself on all the theory stuff, because I should have learned alot more of it by now hahaha. My main bass is a Gibson G3, with an Epiphone Thunderbird & a Dean Demonator as my other main go to basses. Still looking for the right amp for me, so running samples currently. Also really into pedals!
  18. Higgins.plays.bass
    Oh man, I did the same thing! I used to have a huge Ashdown combo way back when, I figured the sub button was just a big & weird low end injection, never even knew octave down was a thing at that point! I think that amp was my second amp ever!
  19. Higgins.plays.bass
    So, I need some suggestions. Phaser & octave down! I'm currently using that big ol' Ashdown, but let's face it... hardly maximising pedalboard space! So, I'm looking for something smaller, & analogue. Maybe an OC-2 or clone, maybe something else interesting, it needs to be pretty subby! Suggestions are welcome! Since I'll have space for one more pedal, I'm thinking a phaser, I used to have a Mooer Orange 90, which I enjoyed until it crapped out on me. So, I'm possibly thinking an EQD Grand Orbiter, those things sound hella cool! Again, suggestions welcome! Note: I'm planning on swapping out the cruddy cheapy cheap trem for a Hummingbird, & yes... I am a fan of Juan, if that isn't overly obvious!
  20. Higgins.plays.bass
    Current pedalboard, I'm planning to swap out the tremolo for an EQD Hummingbird, then swap out the big Ashdown octaver for maybe a smaller octaver, & something else fun... maybe a phaser.
