[quote name='Ian Savage' post='1024166' date='Nov 15 2010, 12:11 AM']Looking for something to run straight into one of my PA power amps to avoid having a bass head kicking around the place, which'll give me some EQ control and a DI out for live sound; I've currently got a Bass Metaphors which I quite like but it doesn't play nicely with other pedals on the same power supply (a 'positive-ground' design, apparently) and I can't be doing with having multiple power supplies when I only use three stompboxes!
Had a look at the Hartke Bass Attack, but where possible I try to avoid buying Chinese-made stuff on ethical grounds; the Sansamp Bass DI looks good but is a bit pricier than I can justify unless I find one secondhand - is there anything else out there that I've missed?
Thanks in advance![/quote]
Hartke Bass Attack is awesome, dismiss ethics in this case.
mxr m-80 also brilliant. more versatile too. but there's something beautiful about that tone shape on the hartke vxl..
i got shot of the sans-amp bddi. didn't do the right thing for my ears.
i would love to try some dha stuff..
