That’s wonderful!! GLWTS Si -
Ooooo, it came! That was a quick turnaround from the last convo!! Very cool! That’s it now, P-bass itch sorted….right!? 🤭 Si

Getting married TODAY 🥰😁

Price reduction Si -
It’s slightly different, similar EQ section I think, but the preamp of the Thump is based off the old Echoplex preamp. I have tried it, and while it definitly has a use, I felt it was losing the Precisions low-end character in favour of the Nobles low-end character. As I say, sounds great, has its place, but not all the time for me. Si
-
I only had the mini boost version, which I think is very much aimed at guitarists. I definitely appreciate the extra EQ on the Thump! Si
-
Done for you Si -
Yeah it’s just something I’ve never felt the need for, or when I’ve used one, have noticed a palpable improvement. I very much like having full and complete control over dynamics from my hands. Si
-
Thanks, already sorted though, see above 🙂 Si
-
I rarely, if ever, use them together on this board, so it’s not an issue. I could simply swap them around if needed I suppose. I think the only stacking I do is Fuzz into Chorus. Si

Made a couple of changes for the better I think. Swapped out the TC Spark for the MXR Thump, WAY more functionality of course, and I do love the MXR bass range! The Thump is actually marginally smaller than the Spark too, which has allowed me to swap out my COG Knightfall 66 Mini for my custom COG Tarkin, which again, has a lot more functionality on it. Chain is: Bass -> MXR Thump -> COG Tarkin -> Boss TU3W -> MXR Envelope Filter -> Boss OC2 -> MXR Bass Chorus -> Noble Pre -> Amp Si

Oh no.....a bass I've wanted for a while has become available. £2k+ though.....what to do!?!
I should probably go try it and hope that it's rubbish haha -
For me it’s the MXR, best envelope filter on the market IMO Si

The pickup came back from Aaron on Thursday last week, but I only had a chance to refit it last night! It needed one side of it rewinding, but it’s now reunited with the bass! sounds as wonderful as it did before, can’t wait to gig it again! Si
-
The pickup is now indeed with Aaron Armstrong! So fingers crossed it’s recoverable. Thanks all Si
-
@Lukasz ChylaI've PM'd you about your basses, please respond. Many thanks Si -
So upsettingly, the original pickup in my ‘71 Precision has given up the ghost and, it seems, will require a repair/rewind. I know next to nothing about pickups, so wanted to garner some opinions on who might be the best person/company in the UK who could take it on, hopefully retaining the ‘vintage’ness’ of the pickup haha. Thoughts? Si
-
Isn’t it a direct copy of the Fender Roscoe Beck bass? Lol Si
-
Awesome! I think if I get another (I have a Shell Pink MVP), it will be the Shoreline Gold P! Si
-
Good price, but that’s par for the course with far-eastern made instruments nowadays. Not sure you’re getting much more than what you’d get from Sire or the like. Si
-
I've owned a Bass Collection, and while they're good for the money, the MV's are a significant step-up. Fit and finish, hardware, neck spec and finish etc. I think I've got an Ashdown Arc bass coming to me for a test/trial in the next couple of weeks, so I'll comment on that at some point too. Si
-
Can confirm Si
-
I mean, bear in mind he’s wearing a costume for the humour of it haha. Other gigs on he tour he looks quite different I believe. Si
-
He seemingly had liver disease from excessive drinking, but was able to receive a liver transplant. Yeah, I watched/listened to it all today and throughly enjoyed it, the whole band sounded great, even without John Otto on drums. Si
