  1. Past hour
  2. Assuming they go back on @ped's agreement, and to be fair, they have form, you can't go wrong with Newtone strings, made in the UK
  3. Thank you mate, and yeah 4s look so tiny compared to 6s. That 4 has a super skinny 36mm nut too to be fair though.
  4. I had the Road Ready 115EV (and 210EV) version and permanently damaged my back. At one point I stupidly tried to buy this 215 cab but couldn't even get it into the car on my own!!
  5. Very cool, there must be some hisssstory to this ..
  6. I swapped the bridge pickup wires. The sound is fantastic. In the middle, both pickups seem to be working at full power, with almost no loss of volume. Lots more bass than before, and much more sustain.
  7. I use DT770 pro's and have just noticed this freebie App that I'm going to investigate in the next few days. I thought it might also be of interest, or curiosity to other Beyerdynamic users: beyerdynamic HEADPHONE LAB
  8. PM incoming regarding the Flanger and the Double Thruster...
  9. Does that mean actually made in the UK? Supporting the Chinese and US economies is something we should all be questioning these days.
  10. Might just be a improvement, you never know ..... 🤔
  11. Hi all, I'm selling this Hipshot HE6C-3/8 Ultralite D-Tuner X-Tender 3/8 Bass - Black (20680B). I bought this for a parts project but it never got used. Good condition, minor scuffs around the peg and nut. Mouting screw included. £60 Price includes UK postage
  12. Hi all, I'm selling this JHS Notadumble. This is a great sounding amp simulator, especially the clean channel which adds something really nice to your sound. It's in excellent condition, with velcro underneath. No original box. I'm looking for £140 including UK postage Bass the world demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O80YIWCezLY
  13. Ahem. *Coughs in Yamaha*
  14. Could be your new kitchen chopping board? 🤔
  15. Alan continues to make some of the best sounding and looking basses on the planet (I may be a touch biased). Don't 4 string necks look skinny next to 5 and 6 stringers? Lovely bases, congrats.
  16. Hard to go wrong with D’Addarios IMO. The nickel rounds seem to last for ages, are relatively cheap and are available in SS, MS, LS. I like their chrome flats as well and even their black nylon tapes, which I have on my Sire U5 fretless. The chromes are quite bright for flats, nothing like as dull as LaBella and half the price. Rotosound flats are really bright to my ears and not too expensive if you shop around. I went into a bit of a panic when Trump was threatening tariffs over Greenland and people were organising a boycott of US goods. What would I use instead of D’Addarios?
  17. Review with embedded video in case you were wondering what this pedal does https://www.thebasschannel.net/bloghome/tasty-tones-the-phat-phuk-b
  18. Look great,Like the cab sim option, hope they sell well. Got to support UK businesses. The after sales is the best in the Business, a lot of firms could learn this detail.
  19. I’m wondering that myself too. It appears from the photo the leather goes underneath the bridge. I also wonder if the leather will take away some of the high-end snap. I guess all will be revealed when it’s delivered!
  20. If flatwounds are not your thing, I can happily replace them with one of the following. I really do need to stop buying strings…….it’s a bad habit!
  21. Interesting, that must explain why things don’t seem to get that much louder when you turn up beyond 3 o’clock on the master? That’s with two cabs with a combined rating about twice the output of the amp.
  22. Looks like it should be ok!
  23. Let me know if the Neptunium goes on the chopping block mate
  24. Ibanez Iceman: Usually I'd say this sort of shaped bass isn't my bag, it's a specific rock/metal genre sort of look (which I don't tend to play), not having the upper horn but adding an extended lower one is an impractical design that doesn't balance well when standing and doesn't fit that well when sitting, it looks like quite a 'slab' sort of design with right-angle edges that would be uncomfortable, matte paint jobs are often a bit delicate,. It's a lot of style over ergonomics and practicality .....but it is stylish! I perhaps like the look of it enough to overlook boring practicalities. (although I think they've missed a trick by not having gold inlays). £889 seems a reaasonable price too. https://www.ibanez.com/eu/products/detail/icb620_1p_01.html I also like the look of the new catchily named SR1320SB. And it does seem a more practical shape than the Iceman as well as having better pickups and preamp. (costs £1,299 though which I think is perhaps a bit steep). I'd need to pick one with the right woodgrain pattern though as some can look a bit like someone has been at the office party and sat on a photocopier! The white one would immediately get called a Zebra Bass. A similar look to the new Dingwall Sol, must be a 2026 thing.
