I had a few, but @neilmurraybass was the guy who really did it for me. Such melodic lines in a rock context ❤️

For me, at the moment, it's as follows: Arriving - The Lark Ascending by Vaughan Williams Reflection - If (When you go) by Judie Tzuke Departing - After all the madness by Bernie Marsden

The pot will have less of an impact on the overall tone than trying different cap values, although a 250K pot will be inherently darker than a 500K one. That said, choosing between linear and audio pots can vary how you hear the change in tone as you dial the pot up or down. If it were me, I'd clean the pot and try a new version of the same cap first, and then take it from there.

In my naivety I assumed people would think I meant country of manufacture, but clearly there are so many more options I should have considered.

Where are these from?

What SB said

Windham Hill churned out some beautiful stuff in the late 80s early 90s: Michael Manring, George Winston, Michael Hedges.

No issues at all. The low B is just fine and I keep everything pretty much flat. If anything it's the G string that is a little louder than the others. Luckily I don't spend much time up there

I love them, but I ended up with a Sire P8 instead, which is superb for the price. 18nn bridge spacing too!

Which is exactly what I’ve just done! 👍🏻

Yes, I've used one for years. Lovely bit of kit.

Latest iteration of my board. Still using the Rockboard Tres 3.0 and the Providence Dual Bass Station, but my purchase of the new Boss Katana 500 head means my trusty Boss MS-3 has been replaced by the Boss GA-FC, which switches the onboard effects. I’ve also added a TU tuner, as the amp doesn’t have one onboard. The Rockboard Power LT XL still sits on the shelf and powers the Providence via 12v adapter, as well as the tuner. Basses go into the Providence and out of the Mod 2.0 to the amp. A stereo cable also comes out of the Mod 2.0 to connect the GA-FC to the amp.

The easiest solution, and fairest IMHO, is to divide the "money behind the bar" equally between those playing on the night. If money is starting to change hands now, just because you're local doesn't mean you shouldn't get paid.

I specifically asked about the second bass, and the owner told me earlier today there's only one available.

We snooze we lose. I was tempted at "just over £3k", but even then couldn't justify such a spend.

This will be useful. The web page says it "analyzes numerous elements, including the lowest frequency that the cabinet can produce, high-end resonances, and many other factors. With this information, advanced processing dynamically enhances the output to provide superior feel and response, powerful lows, and high-definition overall sound." All I know is I like it: definitely makes my cabs sound "tighter".

Looking forward to this. A deep dive is definitely required for this amp!

A general update a week in: still loving it! I've now got my main front panel sorted with a great core tone, plus compression, drive, and chorus as my default fx. From the phone app I can switch to a limiter instead of compression, two other drives, and two other effects (for now, octaver and touch wah). Once you get your head 'round it everything falls into place. No, I didn't buy the cab as I like my current FMC cabs so much!

Yep, thought I'd go all in. Makes it way more versatile for live work.
