Hey @Gizmo, I think you bought a Roland Bass Cube off me many moons ago! Mononeon is my favorite notable player of late. Genius-level talent imho. Some of his playing with Ghost Note in particular is 👌

300w no extension out

Love it - bet it’s great for metal!

Contact beyerdynamic, I believe they will supply you with a Beta version of the App that goes up to 11.

Get’s less attractive each time I look ….

for those old enough to remember Hissing Sid is innocent

Rare example of an instrument that can give your belt bass rash with all those studs on the back.

Lots of great players already listed but I'd also recommend checking out Evan Marien Moto Fukushima Mononeon

Yep. And all the patches.

Twisting By The Pool - Dire Straits

Change them. Most P2s fit and EMG ExW series sound good.

Possibly the first print review of the Stingray 5 (?) Guitar World April 1989

I believe it's the serial number having seen several over the years with a P. and always a different number on the plate (and the left-handed version had LH after the digits). Highest number I recall was P.019.

TONIGHT! (Technically last night as it's past midnight but it counts as tonight) Second gig with a new band (Midnight Mayhem (they were already called that when I joined, don't judge me)) at The Rose & Crown in Ludlow. Lovely old pub that has lots of live music so they're used to it, fairly small stage place where the band goes, decent mob there by the time we'd set up and soundchecked (The soundcheck (sixteen bars of 'All the small things') had people up dancing (!)) and from the off people were loving it - singing along, dancing and generally enjoying it. Mid first set, a bloke came up and told me he appreciated my Bass playing (Not 'liked' it, mind you) which I tried to take as a compliment, then he stood right in front of me and watched me intently which meant I completely forgot how to play. At half time a guy I'd genuinely never seen before came up and greeted me like a long lost friend ("I forgot you said you did this too!" ) so I had to pretend I knew who he was (because I am English and to say "I'm so sorry but I have no idea who you are" is about as appealing as stamping on a newborn kitten) which was...odd. The set went down really well, it's a mix of (sort of) alt-80s type stuff (Back on the chain gang, couple of Blondie ones, Kids in America (Kim Wilde - absolute BANGER and tonnes of fun to play), There's a guy works down the chipshop swears he's Elvis, Doctor Doctor (Robert Palmer), Echo Beach, Sweet Dreams sort of thing), a few pub-cover chestnuts (Dakota, Teenage Dirtbag, Mr Brightside (which the guitarist started in the wrong key and then got horribly confused when it came to the chorus but he styled it out)), a couple of curveballs (Take another little piece of my heart, Crash (Primitives)) and an ABBA one for good measure. I went for a wireless wander for the last song (Born to be wild) which got a good reception AND I got to fuss TWO Doggos *AND* a man told me my dreadlocks are "Really Cool". We played really well, sounded good, went down a treat (Even the bar staff liked us) and the singer said my playing "brought them to another level" which was very gratifying to hear. Played the StingRay -> Small board (I only used the Soul Food) -> Amp board (Thumpinator -> VTDI) -> Markbass CMD 121, footwear was the bright orange DMs (with glittery black laces). An absolute corker of a gig!

Well I wondered this, but then on the Octamizer youtube video I saw a comment saying “why would you make this a digital pedal?” Or something along those lines? So no I think it correct - looks like they might be digital. I’m honestly not too bothered as long as it sounds good, however I know it’ll definitely be a dealbreaker for a lot of people

Bend Me, Shape Me - Amen Corner (had to look that up)

https://ashdownmusic.com/blogs/news/introducing-the-uk-pbm-200 I was thinking this on one of my pedal boards stupid idea or not?
