Unfortunately no videos, I've since sold most of my Royal Blood style stuff but from what I remember it was really particular with chords and would have a fair few artifacts in the sound and some 'bassier' chords would freak it out but YMMV. Luckily for royal blood you dont need to use a massive amount of chords. If you do need to do chords it could be done or you could use a boss PS-6 as that can create chords from what Ive seen

I've gone down this path and the set up I had was a little bear BS1 for fuzz, a tc sub n up for octave and a boss ls2. The boss ls2 is more expensive than a standard splitter but because it blends you don't need a separate amp Little bear bs1 - around £30 from amazon Boss LS2 - around £40 off ebay TC sub n up was around £50 off reverb I also added a big muff tone wicker to get another flavor of fuzz but the little bear bs1 is a clone of the woolly mammoth which is similar to the mastotron that Mike Kerr used

Ah yeah that was me on eBay, I’d been saving to get a Status but whilst I had a fair bit saved I still had quite a way to go so when I saw the Washburn it was the perfect opportunity at the perfect time. Was going to get an American jazz but instead went for the status and can honestly say that the bass plays beautifully and considering it’s a bit of a rarity and had a gig bag plus strings, the price was more than fair for the quality of bass, I’ve struggled putting it down

Now a proud owner of a left handed Washburn status, absolute unicorn to try and track down 😁

The amp I’m currently rocking is a peavey tko 115s which is a combo amp and the main amp section has an fx loop and preamp out/power amp in so hoping I could use those to bypass the amps tone shaping

So I’m definitely going to side with the zoom b1 four over the Pod XT. If I do need to use my amp instead, could I use the amp modelling without any cab sim into my my amps power amp to use the ampeg sim tone not my amps baked in tone?

Oh cool that’s good to hear, I’m looking at using it almost as a preamp and change out different amp and cab presets depending on the song but would mainly use the Ampeg models

Hi everyone, I’ve got a show coming up at the 6th form I’m in and normally I’d use my bass amp however this time I’ve been told I’ll have PA support and so was looking at going ampless. I’ve narrowed my choices to the Zoom b1 four and the small Pod XT. I’m mainly going to be using it for amp and cab simulations and the effects won’t be used for the gig as I’ve got a pedalboard. Does anyone have any experience using either of these and was wondering which one has better quality amps and cabs?
