All Activity

I'm liking what I've heard so far. The bass pedals sound amazing.

Famous last words

That's because they're essentially a passive bass in the first place. The EQ is fully passive and cut-only. The only active bit in the L2K electronics is the boost circuit. They're a bit of an oddity in that sense. Other active basses usually have active tone controls that also boost certain frequencies, and which can be bypassed. Some add active pickups to that package which have a preamp built into the pickup itself that needs power at all times to function.

"Dynamic pricing" All our clicks suggest interest and push the price up. Leave it in your basket and wait.

Wait to see the price of the whole set... 😉

Thank you all for the help - feeling the love

Wow, that's some useful links - I have some Hipshot HB6's with all 4 coming in at 220grams. Four of those Gotoh's (minus bushes) are around 142 grams, saving of 2.8 ounces. Haven't looked at the bridge yet.

I'll PM you today, many thanks

At the Sarah Moore on Saturday night. The 'performance area' in this pub is rather cramped for a band of our size, but as we were a man down (Liam, our co-lead singer was unavailable), it meant I had the opportunity to move from normal 2 square feet stuck behind a guitarist and move up front next to Jenny as I was doing the majority of backing vocals. And I have to say, she did a fantastic job covering both her and his songs, including a couple she had never sung lead on before. This was the first time I used my new Darkglass Anagram outside the house. I decided to tempt fate and leave the Helix at home. I needn't have worried, as the anagram sounded great; besides, the pub is only 5 mins from home, so I could have gone home to get the Helix if I needed it (and I keep a Sonicake Boom Ave in my bag just in case). I still need to tweak several things with my presets and get midi control from Bandhelper up and running. Pressing two footswitches simultaneously to change presets is not the easiest thing to do. But I really appreciated the much smaller and lighter unit by my feet. This will be very useful in tight venues. The gig itself went well, but the pub was a bit quiet. I put this down to being the last weekend before payday, and the month after, many people have had expensive family holidays. But the manager was very happy with us and hoping to get us back next year, lease pending. Next week, our regular overseas stint at Starr Sport on Canvey Island.

Are you talking about a used Squier CV Jazz bass? If so, go for it. The Crafted In China CVs were among the best Squiers made. Nothing intrinsically wrong with the Vintera, but it's nothing special.

Bought a Hipshot bridge from Vin. A stress-free transaction and nice to have a chat about all things bass when I came to collect. Cheers!

BTW thanks for the info on HB and meths - that's a good price for 500ml! I could use a top-up

The ones I linked to are actually being sold in the Amazon D'addario shop, and the 3 sets I've had so far have all been legit.
