Woodwind

Thanks so much. I'm sold 😎

Sounds good! Any sign of funny whines or hums or the like? I've had cheap pedals before where there are odd sounds. I think I'm going to do the preorder for 59quid amyway

This thread is really doing me no favours. Getting very interested in the idea of a nice old trace head, mounted in a new lightweight sleeve partnered with a modern high power 12" cab (X2)

I perform under my own name. So too does a chap in the United States and yes we have the same name. His Spotify and mine became permanently entangled and despite numerous attempts with Spotify and the aggregator I was using they were never truly separated.

Not wanting to derail this thread too much, so happy to take this to messages if necessary. How do you find the Fuzzdog? Good sound? Little extra noise? Was the build relatively self explanatory? As there is a huge pre-order period for these beringhers I am tempted I go down the self build route

On the hunt for a new fuzz to replace my dying Sovtek Big MuFF and this pedal has seriously piqued my interest. Very keen to hear about these pedals from anyone when they do arrive.

I was brought up on this wisdom too, but once I started amplifying acoustic (bass) instruments, I found the facility to add judicious reverb vital.

It went for 126quid!!!!

"... 2. Where will Bass Day 25 take place? The event will be held near St Paul's Cathedral in the Heart of London at the CLS Conference Centre, 107 Queen Victoria St, City of London, London EC4V 3AL, UK. ..." This is the City Of London School. They have various rooms for hire listed on their website, one being a modest conference room, but there is no "conference centre" to speak of.

As a fellow bass woodwind player I thoroughly approve of this! I'm a complete sucker for the Bari'. A covers band playing in a pub would normally signal my time to leave, but a baritone blasting out alongside some popular hits is going to fuel my night nicely. I hope you can get some good bookings throughout the year! As for suggestions I'm completely biased as I'd just be recommending things I'd want to hear - current pop (dua lipa etc etc), dance/pop stuff from that sweet spot 2015-2017, early 2000s hits intermixed with high energy anthems from the 1980s and 1990s. All the best with this. Please keep us updated

Although it seems counter intuitive it's a symptom of mass production. If you have machines and workers set up to make fretted necks, you don't need to change anything to make lined fretless necks. However an unlined neck needs a new worker/bench etc as it has the side dots in a different place, so becomes more expensive to make

Good point! Setting up a mix at home/studio needs to be done at gig levels - as loud as you play on stage. That snare that sounds so good at home listening levels may not be audible on stage or conversely that kick drum that sits nicely with you bass at home may overpower the stage mix. I've seen a few bands with backing track drums this year (and do something along those lines in my own performances) These aren't "rock" type bands, so the visual aspect of missing a drummer wasn't pronounced, but I think for a pub band having a drummer is really important for the vibe

Without doubt generic boxes sadly.

I would pay (a small amount) extra for mass produced basses categorised as lightweight.
