G&Ls are stunning instruments designed by Leo Fender. The Tribute range are the Far East made versions of the better USA made instruments. The main difference is the quality of wood and better craftsmanship of the USA factory which is in the original Fender factory. £589 seems a lot for a Tribute. If you dig around you could probably pick up a used USA G&L for that price. The L2000 has more like a Precision kneck and the Asat is like a Telecaster with a Jazz neck. The electrics are the same on both and are awesome. They are like no other classic USA bass and are v flexible; they can be run active or passive and in or out of phase. I would highly recommend them if you like Fender or MusicMan instruments. G&Ls are better quality than both IMO.

[quote name='phil.i.stein' timestamp='1319976142' post='1420655'] a guitarist friend of mine has ordered one recently. i'll give it a try on bass when it arrives, and update. [/quote] Great, I would love to know how it is on guitar too. Any views from your mate on it for that?

Anyone tried the Joyo octave-up fuzz? If this compressor is as good as peops say, I reckon i will have bad GAS for the up-fuzz!

Not yet! Am looking forward to it tho. I love a good compressor!

Hi Panther seems like only yesterday I was buying your Pedaltrain Junior board, so you could downsize to a Pedaltrain Mini.......what happened?!! Too much GAS?

Been totally happy with Fender Bassman 135 rig for nearly 15 years now. It's just a great platform from which to build pretty much any sound I want. It delivers the sound of the instrument very clearly. I have a bass from 60s, 70s, 80s and 00s. Each produces the sound of its era. Also the Bassman head is awesome as a guitar amp. So I get 2 for price of one. Oh did I mention the amp cost me £70 from Admag, the 1x15 cab I use was £100 and the 2x15 was £225. I am v happy with this arrangement!

Thanks for tip Will come back to you all when pedal arrives by ship

Not really sorted for clip recording.... I'll try and sort it out tho..... Any tips for getting clips posted so basschatterers can listen with ease direct from a post on here?

just taken the plunge on the compressor - hope it doesn't take too long to arrive
