gobasserk Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 I would say, it's not only a one trick pony but also a one pick (up) pony ! 🤣 Quote
Al Krow Posted August 22, 2021 Author Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) @gobasserk I usually love your recordings and I'm also a big fan of some Tech 21 pedals (e.g. the VTDI). But honestly? I love the clean sound of your basses waaaaaaay more than with your DP-3X. YMMV etc. By way of comparison - these two clips with and without the Tech 21 YYZ were both great!

Guest Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Randomly messing around with my multi effects unit and chanced on the discovery that the way to get some real character out of the 424's neck pickup is to play it through.... *peers at tiny screen* ....a mid-60s Fender Twin Reverb. Huh. So if any bassists have one of those lying around.... Quote
gobasserk Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Al, I know what you mean. I like the sound of much less everything better too ! BB1000MA_PJ-and P And of course the other ecordings where done with a cab Edited August 22, 2021 by gobasserk Quote
gobasserk Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 And now my old (!) Hartke Attack pedal... I think, this is close enough for me... BB1000MA_P with Hartke Attack (Mark 1) Quote
gobasserk Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) I just listened to all the recordings in my car instead over headphones on the laptop. On the radio the recordings you quoted (cab) are too boomy but the "tubesound" DP.recordings sound perfect!! Edited August 22, 2021 by gobasserk 1 Quote
Muzz Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 So I should probably update this with the gig experience from Satdy...took the 414 and one of my Shukers as backup. The Shuker stayed in its case...tho that was partly due to the, ummmm, liveliness of the venue (yeah, one of those gigs...), but I was very, very pleased with the results of a low-cost pimping. That bridge is super-comfy under the heel of the right hand, and the sound was bob on...the weight was fine, too... 2 Quote

TheGreek Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 I wish I could remember that far back... I'll have to find that post now Quote
Al Krow Posted August 23, 2021 Author Posted August 23, 2021 (edited) Here you go, let's save you a bit of time...I've linked to my post with a clip of the actual bass you were asking about embedded. Health warning: it weighs more than most minor planets... Edited August 23, 2021 by Al Krow Quote
TheGreek Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 Too late - I was already on the Thomann site. Quote

Al Krow Posted August 24, 2021 Author Posted August 24, 2021 You were selling some spare 'Bass' logos a while (a few years?) back, Mick. Did you shift them all? Quote
TheGreek Posted August 24, 2021 Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) I've got loads of bits from the Bass Beer Co - badges, t-shirts, signs, trays - all sorts really. Were you after anything in particular? Edited August 27, 2021 by TheGreek Quote
Al Krow Posted August 24, 2021 Author Posted August 24, 2021 A small iron or brass version of your sign in the picture for a window ledge. Quote
TheGreek Posted August 24, 2021 Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) The one in the photo is the larger one of these two. The scrollwork on the smaller is heavy, the disc around 10-11". Edited August 27, 2021 by TheGreek 1 Quote
Al Krow Posted August 24, 2021 Author Posted August 24, 2021 The small size without the scroll, would have been perfect. But it would be vandalism to remove the scroll! Quote

AndyTravis Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 The Manchester to Morecambe Yamaha BB delivery service resumed duties today… @lee650 and I have promised to raise a glass to MB1😎 as it’s almost as shady as one of his car park deals… A pub next to a railway. 2 1 Quote
