Trace Transit. Although big on the long side it isn't overly tall or deep for all you get. Dual compressors, full EQ, tuner and DI ( optional o/d can probably give a clean boost as well). You really don't need any pedalboard under it so you'd be ahead, and it comes with its own carry bag.

Knockoff by B'ringer not the real deal.

It's not like a BDDI is a big investment. Then you're golden, if a little midscooped in the high mids, for some tone in the event of amp failure.

Not clear if it's open E or all the notes up the E string.

When you do need an amp you'll be hauling a much bigger unit. Dunno what the input level needs are on the proposed B'ringer, nor the output level of SGT, but shouldn't be hard to find out. I always forget the difference in dBU vs dBV though.

If your combo is an mb200 in a box with a speaker then it should take an extension cab. That would be a good thing to try before ditching it. Crazy how loud an MB200 goes through a big cab at 4ohms.

Danger Will Robinson!!!

Rattling definitely not normal. Send it back.

It's the economists' purview to figure out the complex behaviour that is the cause. They can't. So Central Banks pull levers to do their best and eventually it settles down as the economists 'predicted' so they all keep their jobs.

Compare the US pricing and the rates of exchange over time to get the true picture.

Chickens and basses. If economists really understood inflation we wouldn't have any. Instead we have people doing what they do and the value of money is decreasing as prices rise. If you're asking "is the rising price of basses out of kilter with inflation?" that is a different question.

The draw is the thing. As WS intimated, the supply has to be rated for the draw that is sucking on it. There are lists of power draws for pedals on the internet.

Yes.

Yup.

Decibels of sensitivity not years methinks.

BB = BigBaby by Alex at Barefaced? Most likely a compression driver rather than a tweeter. There's a bit going on with his HF control that I still don't really understand. Something about a crossover frequency control rather than a level control?

Reverse psychology job done on postal service! No excuse for not treating fragile item as fragile. That's some tough plastic that builders' stuff, ideal for preventing any scratching.

I think you need a little bit of power to make the magic happen. Otherwise we would be awash with passive HPF boxes. Your Broughton will make you so happy you forget all about it.

Either you can enjoy being the foundation or you can suffer. I prefer the former even if it's a dirge dancefloor emptier bar queue generator I would rather not play.

Any real bassist could metal that if required. Funniest surprise I ever got was our guitard plugging his acoustic into his rage pedal and having at it. Pointy guitar redundant!

A high pass filter can give a lot more control over your low end when the flab is eliminated while bass knob is still free to boost or simply not cut.

Did you notice that the rhythm guitar lacked the corresponding swagger? Takes two to Tango.

If you got an 8 ohm cab a simple rule to have would be "1 in 1 out", in that order. That way there is always at least one cab connected and impedance is always in the range. No problem being interrupted mid process. Actually, not sure that works as the second jack is labelled extension with no switch. There could be internal switching on the jack itself so equally possible there is already self shorting on the main one, which would make it all a non issue. Schematic time.

I agree with Dad. It's a string spacing on the smaller side but made that way. Hard to tell from photos but my eyetrometer says 30" scale. Having jumped on a fretless Ubass at 22" and managed fine I say it don't much matter if you have ears. Either you are a fretlesser or you ain't.

Most people don't have the nerve to play the bass on the beat all on their lonesome against the syncopation but it makes the tune.
