  1. Been checking out the Royal Jelly by Beetronics. Sounds fantastic on bass (and most other sources). Andertons sold out phew 😮‍💨
  2. Checked out some demos. What a great sounding unit! Not in the market but I could see how useful one of these would be for so many live/iem/di to foh players.
  3. These are so much more than just a DG sounding pedal. Great always on tone shaper which can give your sound that wee lift in a band mix.
  4. I think it was this one: just cut/paste into Amazon. SONICAKE Pedal Power Supply Adapter Guitar Bass Accessories 9V DC 1000mA 1A
  5. I nabbed a 500ma psu from amazon worked a charm.
  6. I thought you were after a p split. Apologies if I’ve misunderstood or it already sold
  7. I use the 210 500w Rumble combo (about 350w without the ext speaker) and it holds up well but we have pa support too so I’m not pushing it super hard. I tend to run a cam sim/IR to the desk but have a thru out on that pedal (Omni cab sim) to the amp. I like to have the amp with a bit of dirt on stage at one of my main venues. Both the drummer and I appreciate the feel of a bass on stage. My other regular venue the sound tech likes the amp to be quite low as not to ‘overpower’ the foh mix but as it’s iem only the amp is optional. At our last gig I had a nice bass sound but I was using the DBird and it makes anything sound good! Back out on the 30th for our last gif of the year and I’ll be in the same venue. Might swap out a pedal but the crowd are always up for a dance and a party. We’re very lucky that it’s a city centre venue popular with locals and tourists and Edinburgh is rammed over Hogmanay. Fish in a barrel!
  8. Have someone who’s very keen but if that doesn’t pan out I’ll get in touch and who knows😀
  9. I gigged this over the weekend - many of my gigs are iem but I had my amp with me for this one. What a tight and present sound on the night. As we were doing our own sound I got to push my amp more (the sound guy at the other venue likes me to keep the amp low if I’m using the supplied one) and man it was great sound it was! The all pick ups on is killer but the ‘p tones’ were just spot on. A combination of the scale length and the pick up (and some sweet pedal board tone shaping between the comp and drive pedal) but just wow! I’ve been rotating basses these last few gigs and I’ve been lucky to have had three gigs in the same venue so it’s been good to revisit what each delivers. For me the p bass and the jazz are staples but the ding has another quality that the other two can’t quite reach. I’m still a p bass guy at heart but this ding sings!
  10. OK so at a massive push I might entertain a trade on a Gibson Les Paul bass but only because I’ve been on a Supersuckers binge of late!🤠
  11. Nurse!!! If the MB HT503 is anything like the HD 500 it’ll be a belter!
  12. I had the MusicMan HD500 which was built for EBMM by MB. It was a cracking head too and definitely worth a look if you see one come up. I think it was based on the TA501 Markbass head?!?
  13. Your man with a van could pick it up for you as he’s driving past on his next pick up 😉 For me the beauty of the three pick ups is that they’re the same pick up so you get that p bass tone but just in different positions with the solo bridge or solo p setting rather than a weaker bridge say on some pj basses. I said it in the first post but solo bridge does a great p tone only a bit more gnarly. The all pick ups on mode gives this focused nearly compressed sounding tone which sit really nicely and is really good for slap tones. It was the perfect bass in the 80’s band having those MM tones too.
  14. Steady on Euclid! 😉
  15. Been banging on this tonight for some up coming gigs and it’s winning over both my p & j as it’s just so versatile - running into a tube di direct to my Apollo and it’s a monster. I don’t think I’ve played such a versatile sounding bass.
  16. I’ve been in touch with them direct and they don’t have any stockists and they don’t do international shipping. It likely helps keep costs down but thanks for the link.
  17. Decided to keep things passive… I’m keen to try an Audere pre but they won’t ship to the UK. Would any US bases BC’ers be able to be my shipping address and then forward the unit to me? I heard one used in Johnny Long demo and loved the flexibility and design of the unit and it’s one of the few active preamps I genuinely liked the sound from. I’ll naturally cover the costs of getting the unit to you and the shipping to me here in Scotland. If you feel you would have a spare few hours to stick a shipping label on the box and drop off/await collection from a courier then DM me. Thanks for reading
