I run my comp in the loop of a Basswitch - wonderful pedal if you have the space on your board, especially if you play DB as it has an input impedance selector so you really get the most from piezo pick ups. dannybouy I always considered the PC-2A to be like plugging into the 60's - like a good old studio console. I just heard it as a plush bloom to notes with great bottom and it just added a 'vintage quality' to my p bass. Now I have a better understanding of how studio's and studio gear works I think I meant the bass just sounded like it was 'mixed' to sit in the mix. Bloom and bottom for all the grooves! It'd be interesting to hear how that bloom worked with an upright.

I played a Nexus something or other in Guitar Guitar and thought it sounded good. Can't remember which one but it basically had everything you'd need live or in the studio - heaps of I/O and a lot of control on the front panel. I recall thinking there's a lot of stuff for the money as well as it just sounding good!

[quote name='Cuzzie' timestamp='1506085543' post='3376371'] Now now Krispn, you know you miss the 76G, despite the CB and the Hudson Broadcaster in tandem. Keep the big box! If you get some hiss get a decimator! [/quote] Honestly I’m really happy with my 76CB. The led metering is the only thing that’s missing but that’s what ears are for.

The big box cali is great but the bass specific features of the CB are really cool. I made the switch and while I miss the big footprint, well it does look pretty cool, the dry blend and HPF are kinda cool to play with. Be great if you could A/B the two. I was gonna get the big box TX but found a work arouond with a second pedal which had a TX in it. I'm really happy with how they sound!

Maybe more than you need but there is a Basswitch IQ DI for sale on here. It'll let you have two channels one with 4 band eq, one without eq, (you can also plug in two basses and switch between them) it has a transformer DI out, dual fx loops one series one parallel. One of these loops has a phase switch to make sure the pedals are in phase and is blendable with your clean signal. Oh yeah and you can switch it on of off and there's a mute switch. Super versatile unit and great as a 'control centre' on your pedal board. I'm not selling the one on here but I do own one and it's a fantastic unit. If it's in your budget you'll be getting a heck of a lot for your money. Here it is in context on my board. The bass plugs into the HPF/LPF (red pedal)>Broadcast> Basswitch input. The Cali 76 is always on in one loop and the Bass Soul Food is in the blend loop. Separate tuner out Some great video reviews and demo's here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=basswitch+iq+di [attachment=253819:IMG_0858.JPG]

It's a cool name for sure and I get the connection. It's a fine bass and you'd think Fender would have been all over this rather than the Dimension which lets face it is a terrible name for anything!

Brevity!

I think RayJay or JayRay is a better name for this style. Can you pm me with the ballpark price? Really quite tempted to do this style of bass. Thinking Nordy Bigman and a Darkglass tone capsule eq. #Mahoosive

Looks like a solid well thought out unit. I do like that speak on type power connector.

Too kinda - always happy to help a fellow BC'er

Check the fxpedalrental.com thread here in the effects section. Darren has mentioned that he may look into getting the Cali76 as part of his inventory. It's a fantastic sounding pedal and well worth renting to try in your set up.

[quote name='Cuzzie' timestamp='1504591244' post='3365815'] Sorry to derail further but I for one was very grateful you changed Krispn [/quote] How's it working out? I picked up the Hudson 'Broadcast' and have paired it to the Cali CB so I've effectively got a Cali TX minus the massive footprint and it is a fantastic combination - all those words like thick, phat, deep and hefty come to mind. Actually those would make for great names on a pedal rather than gain drive tone etc.

Yeah I think it's a great sounding bass. Possibly too coloured from the drive but there is a decent core tone in there. I'd be up for trying one with those t bird pick ups. Quite like the idea of a p bass with Tbird pick up in the sweet spot a la mine lull. This would be a great alternative

I loved my PC-2A but it got robbed years ago. I was holding out for the RMI but got a big box Cali and recently changed to the Cali CB. What an impressive box. I pair mine with a Hudson Electronic Broadcast which provides the Transformer element and adds a really nice quality to the tone of the bass. Sorry for the derail!

Ignore me saw the other thread

Jus Lukin fx pedal rental.com have the Q strip available for rental and the new Geddy Lee pre amp. Why not give them a go? The Q strip looks like a great tool to have on a gig. Be pretty cool to demo this sort of set up before taking the plunge - having the PD/RPM and Qstrip on a board would make a pretty impressive noise!
