Good work fella! I just got myself a Classic M212 recently and it's a winner. Handles the 5 stringer so well nice and so light!! So are you up on the artist page already and how do we go about getting a amp/cab deal 😉

looks like they've pulled it from the iPlayer

I keep looking at stuff and then immediately play my 4 or 5er and the gas subsided...just! I'm not sure how long I can hold off tho......

I should have a loop pedal kicking about if you need a lend to try that out in your set up.

If your 'smaller board' could fit a looper which you could then patch in the other board as and when? Might be a solution which would be, dare I say it, less hassle?

If it's the Baron Model T I recall a guitar shop had one which thay couldnt shift - had a managers special sticker basically saying make us an offer! It was a fine playing bass with a mids 'boost' control. I just thought it was a bit big in the body tel bass style but i'm only wee so it might be a good fit for ya?

I'd have swung by your gig this weekend but I'm off up north but keep me posted when your playing again and I'll come have a listen. It's a fine looking bass and judging by the sheer quality of the two NBD threads these guys are worth checking out!

I may start pushing for two channel bass di on my regular gig

Next rehearsal take one song where you lock in and try a couple of takes with different sounds (have maybe 3 or four different eq settings and write them down) - try another song with those same various settings record it all on you phone if you can (or all of you can) listen back with headphones and sus out what it is you're liking or disliking about the sounds as a band and specifically as the bassist - have the others do this too. An important part of being in a band is having a sound -collectively- knowing where you'll fit in the mix. At least one or two rehearsals should be spent working on that if you're kinda into sounding as good as you can. I'm sure the OP has an idea of what he likes but that kinda has to balance with the other instrumentation. Example In my covers band the singer/guitarist who claims to be have been a soundman for years thinks turn up the bass is what a bass needs in a mix but totally neglects the mids - what they mean to a mix, how they impact on the tone of the band or how cutting frequencies in this reigion can mitigate feedback and let all instruments be heard and have thier own space to breath in a mix. He only recently realised the desk he uses has a sweepable mid channel and a volume for that channel and couldnt figure out why the fiddle kept suffereing from feedback! To be fair he's a bit of a chump Bottom line is use rehearsal time to experiment - its a known thing that P basses sit well in a mix because of their mid's as much as their bass....or join a dub band Good Luck sir!

I'm digging the sound - not as muddy as the T Bird sound I'm most familiar with (tho I've not heard some of the highly respected after market T-Bird pick ups out there) I could totaly rawk one of these in my pub band doing folk/Irish covers

The review was from the link I posted - not my words but stuff that I did notice but said so much more eloquently than I could have. Im seriously thinking about another one (currently using a Basswitch for preamp/eq/di) as my drive unit - might be a good choice as they are really solid.
