PS massive props for using all biodegradable packaging 🤘

Just received this fresh Thumpinator v2 in black 🖤 I guess not strictly a pedal. Just need to decide where to place it now. My current signal chain is: Bass Tuner Longsword Model FeT Hyper Luminal GK Fusion S 800 The obvious choice is between the Tuner and Longsword but then again the Longsword does seem to sound ever so slightly better with a hi-z input so perhaps after? I'd try it out now but I'm on child duty, how are people using theirs?

I loved the GT1000core, the amount of control you have with the 3 dividers is incredible. I have a guitar drive pedal i love but doesn't have a clean blend, popped it in an fx loop of the core and used a parallel divider to let me blend some clean lows back in. I think the signal chain stuff was more exciting than the fx for me. Unfortunately didn't fit with the latest project so I'm back to analog with just compressor, preamp and drive. Never tried the GX100 but heard amazing stuff. As others have said there's always an option of a separate di, i have a radial prodi I picked up cheap 2nd hand which was perfect.

Thats such a great use of the available space, very clean. Love it!

Thats a very good shout!

Yeah pretty much what I thought although they do look prettier 😂

Anyone tried the "high performance" ebs flat cables? Debating which to order as i need a couple more.

I think 3rd party IRs might have been a later addition to the software. Element looks great although id love to see a comparison to the Cab M. When I've been practicing I've been putting a LPF on in logic around 3khz at -6db per octave in Logic and it's a huge improvement. Thats the same approach the took on the Jad Freer Capo and I've gotta say I really like the simplicity of it.

I'd like to assume most FOH would apply a LPF to shave off some fizz. Your amps DI is unlikely to sound any better unless it has a LPF or cabsim. There are DIs like the Two Notes Cab M that you could put in your effects loop to apply a cabsim to the DI for FOH.

Got a Hyper Luminal that I've been tempted to try for ages. Lovely chap and sent it off straightaway. Highly recommended!

Don't so what i did and place all my pedals on, cut all the wires to length etc only to realise there wasn't enough space between some of the pedals to safely stomp them individually. The EBS patch cables are fantastic, much smaller profile that the custom ones i soldered too and they come in enough sizes that for most boards you can minimise mess excess wiring.

Yeah the Sisma is modelled on a B15 i think? The Capo just looks like a very versatile and high quality preamp. What i meant was more that I'd love to own all their stuff but I'll settle for the Capo 😂

Was just gonna say the same thing. Unless you need your amp for something specific like having a clean/dirt channel with footswitch or something I'd just use whats provided though personally. If your gear os pretty integral though then just utilising the send/return is a nice safe way of configuring it.

Yeah they almost sound too good to be true but definitely want to get one.

Ahhh thats a shame. For what it's worth from speaking to others who ordered directly from JF it sounds like they were super helpful and instantly gave a refund for a discrepancy between their site and the reverb price so was a little surprised to hear anything negative.

Do you mean you bought direct from their site?

The Jad Freer stuff looks really impressive, from what I've heard it sounds incredible too and packed with great features/design. Can't afford the amp, or their power amp but still probably going to end up with their Capo preamp pedal in the near future.

Love my GK Fusion S 800 head. It pair's great with the two10 (albeit a little overpowered) so I'm sure the one10 will work great. It was perfect for warm smooth base tones to accompany some slightly folkier stuff. More recently I've been using it for some very aggressive snarly punky noise stuff and it's blown me away. The tube overdrive channel is great, I wrote it off a bit foolishly when i got the head but after getting to know it I'm fully sold. I genuinely think you could get a solid tone for just about anything.

Let us know how you get on! Tbh my FeT and Fusion S sounded so good at the last practice I don't wanna mess with a good formula. I'll still end up ordering it though I'm sure in a moment of weakness 🤣

I was looking but decided to just grab a Hyper Luminal 2nd hand instead. I think even if it sounded good i just wouldn't trust it at a gig or that its been particularly ethically produced!
