Congrats on the new bass. You have my lusted 78 fender. Ash body maple fretboard. Man that must have some attitude . It’s going to be hard to compete with that as it’s sonically unique (Bart pickups 😍) with the added nut width and profile.

I’ve a set of chromes 50-105. They aren’t sticky at all. Very smooth to play. I’ve had them for a while and the brightness has tamed tbh.

Cheers for explaining

Pmsl hahahhahahahhaha I literally burst out laughing

Interesting original question. I feel if the political view gets in the way of creation and causes a funky energy and vibe yes I wouldn’t join the band. I feel we all have different views on things in life but I hope we are mature enough to be able to agree to disagree and focus on the task at hand when it’s clear tension is building. If that’s not possible 👋🏾.

I think I’m going to get a tc spark and a compressor suggested. If the spark doesn’t tickle my fancy I’ll look into others like the beta and genzler.

I actually saw it. I’m still think about it. I think the seller wants 125 which makes a new genzler 75 more. Man I hate decisions lol

I didn’t even realise you sent this. My apologies. I don’t know what a COT-50 is. I’ll look into it and the earthquake devices blames. Man trying to find a genzler 4 on the floor used is near impossible lol.

Hey bud. Yes I’ve played a good amount. I roll off the highs to 10 o’clock, mids set at either round 800hz or 250-400hz at 1 o’clock, bass boosted a tad if room doesn’t get boomy. Amber contour which boosts the mids between 150-200 and cuts highs from 800hz set to 9-12. you are definitely right about playing with what you have.

Appreciate the explanation. I was thinking of getting a compressor anyway. The cali compressor is pricey lol. There are two versions v1 and v2. Would both versions achieve the same thing? down the rabbit hole to look for different warm compressors and demos.

Oh I would have never have thought. I’m new to pedals. I’ll have to look at the recommended. how does a warm compressor differ in effect compared to a low gain overdrive?

I’ll have to check this out. In which way would you say it’s coloured?

I want to warm up the tone of my genzler Magellan rig. It’s the 350 head so doesn’t have the drive channel like the Magellan 800. I just love warm, responsive, creamy tone that’s responsive to fingerstyle playing. Say in a solo environment or in a more forward role in a band. For example of role. Paul Jackson when he played with the headhunters with herbie. So in the jazz, fusion, rnb, Latin realm. Nothings rock or hardcore. I don’t play that kind of music.

oh this is interesting. What pedals have you tried and how does the rat differ?

I’ve seen the tc electronic pedal near me. The videos on YouTube show the hard overdriven tone which is not what I’m after tbh. More Motown, very subtle warmth. Would you say it’s capable?

It’s gone lol. Just like the genzler 4 on the floor when I go to look for one they just have been sold 🤣🤣🙈

Cheers for the quick response. I’ll check it out. The amount of pedals out on the market makes my brain short circuit lol

Hey peeps, I recently bought the genzler Magellan 350 combo. Really really like the kit. I would love to add a little tube like warmth to the sound. I play a pbass ash with maple fretboard. Style of music ranges from soul, funk to jazz. I only play fingerstyle. jeff genzler suggested the genzler 4 on the floor pedal which has gotten great reviews. New they are like 200 (out of my price range) so I put a wanted post on the pedal but no luck as yet. I’m looking for possible alternatives to add some creamy low gain warmth. Something that all always be on. I suffer from analysis paralysis lol. Not really a pedal person at all. I’ve got a ditto x2 looper on the way which I’ll use with it. Possibly a tuner and a compressor. suggestions?

I opted for the ditto x2 should be with me this week. Having stereo gives the option of put another instrument in. Looking to having fun with this.

😳 you jammy bugger. congrats! I wish manny was closer to London. I would invite myself over and would bring my famous curry so I could try a bb lol.
