Phew!

@dave_bass5 They also had the blow out on the Ampeg PT-20 and PT-50’s. They’re about an hour away from where I live. And the db bass cabs... As for Kostcutter krispn the alliteration is a wee bit too kkk for my liking but thanks for the thought🙂

I don’t think the red ones were ever £124 new but it certainly doesn’t become less useful just because it’s not 92% off 😀 Shame they don’t have the blue version (which has the higher price tag) in stock as it’s a tad more versatile in terms of inputs. I recall Yamaha having a bit of interest about these when they were first announced and I think they had an initial high price but were cheaper upon release to market. I don’t have one as I use my Apollo interface/laptop for headphone play at home. They get decent reviews though if you have a search.

Still got the grizzly bass @Al Krow?

Nice

If your on board eq can boost at 40Hz and 4kHz you’ll be in the ball park but it’ll be hard to nail the pre exactly. Aguilar have a new teeny version of their old DB924 pre which is very similar to the Sadowsky https://www.aguilaramp.com/effect-pedals/db925/

The Epi is great or at least the ones I’ve played were.

A Lucille into the clean channel of a Mesa DC5 slightly pushed is what I think of for an all round great guitar tone. Such a great guitar. As for basses it’s 3 for me but honestly the p bass is all I really need.

Same here I retro fitted some Nordstrand NJ4’s in my (albeit fretted) VM with no hassle at all.

So does the new Sire make 10 or has there been another NBD😀

Yup it was more if it was a traditional nut width. I can imagine it's nothing but sublime and the weight!! Gotta love the SuperP! My 5er was a superb 3.9kg, 3.4kg (ish) for a 4 string is mad!

Oops didn’t mean to make it a DWF😀

How does the Super P4 feel? I love the Super P and the 4 feels like it doesn’t ‘need’ the extended scale length but I do really really like them. The oly/tort would be go to or the Pino-esque colour scheme. I love the neck on the 5 but how’s the profile on the 4 given how difficult it is to encapsulate things like feel in words!

Oh go on then... Same bass just a change of pick up. Shuker body with a PB70’s neck Lull TBird pick up (top pic) and a David Allen 1088p Reverse P in the bottom. The neck feels great and with flats feels amazingly smooth. I’ve never rubbed my hands in butter but I’ve heard it said...

I bought her book which has videos to support the learning within. It’s maybe not relevant for the specific ‘paid courses’ you’re looking at. The rules were very specific after all. However the book ‘Music Theory for The Bassist Player’ now has a paid, accompanying course which one could use but my experience is limited to the book so I can’t vouch for that specific course.

Time off work is no hardship

Here’s an example. I bought a pick up, small easily packaged but it was expensive and unfortunately got lost in the system. I sought a full refund and the seller refused saying why should they suffer the loss. I presumed the item was insured and said just claim it back on the shipping cover. I was told I didn’t specify that I wanted the item insured and it was implied that I was only asking about insurance now the item was lost. I explained I’d just presumed that the item would have been insured because it was about £200 value. It became a whole mess trying to get my money back made worse by a seller who appeared to abdicate responsibility, turning it back on me because I hadn’t insisted on insurance from the outset. Both of us were ‘right’ but equally both of us made some plain errors in not insisting on a few basics.

I’ve mentioned this to a fellow BC’er a while back that, in theory, one could go to any manufacturers website and check the eq points on a specific pre/amp and then dial that in on a parametric eq to be in the ball park. Obviously on certain amps and preamps it’s the magic of the circuitry which influences the sound as much as the settings (and the rest) but the HX range affords folk who wanna give it a go a chance to and to further tweak to suit their rig. A case in point the best bass tone I ever got was into a Read Purity pre amp with eq bypassed. Absolutely sublime and I know I could never replicate that on a HX Stomp!

You can do the same with speaker settings putting them after an amp or pre amp for instance.

Maybe form Dr Tone link. He has some tweaked settings to replicate various well regarded pre amps and speakers etc.

That’s me told off! I’ve only paid/used Ariane’s material but stand by the recommendation. It’s more theory based than technique though. The rest has been free you tube stuff
