  1. Past hour
  2. I think if you see this screen and get excited by the possibilities then the FI4 is for you if that fills you with fear and dread - the Mxr is for you! (if that looks a bit dumbed down and simple - ignore us all and get back to your Zoia …)
  3. Unusually for a UK bassist, I started on a borrowed Kay in my teens. It belonged to the local fiddle organisation in Dunoon, they had two Kay basses and at least one cello. I don't know how they got over here, but I'd wager it was connected to the US submarine base that was on the Holy Loch for decades. I had no idea at the time that they were considered anything special. I struggled to get the sound I wanted out of it, but that could easily have been down to me or the strings that were on it. They were round nylon wound on the G and D and round metal wound on the E and A, and had off-white cores with looped ends that could have been gut or a synthetic material.
  4. I'm depping on bass for The Bonnevilles (rock'n'roll and proper R&B) on Wednesday 9th July at Darley Moor race track bike night, just south of Ashbourne.

  8. Sadly, the cab was already on a separate thread. Thanks for the messages from everyone here
  9. Still very much enjoying the Handbox WB100. Had a while of not really having chance to use it so was up for sale but now find myself in 2 bands where its a perfect fit. Sounds incredible 👌 The only thing that topped it was a Marshall VBA400 but I ain't lugging around a 40kg amp 🤣 I’d love to try a Traynor but the EAE Bass Driver into the front of the Handbox gets me to a pretty comfortable TS50b-ish place from samples ive heard.

  11. That would be great, Peter. And an honest comparison of latency, tracking and glitching would be very welcome too! I've not kept up to date on the latest FI manuals, but was thinking that if instead of "1 to 99" you renamed the pre-set patches as being in the style of "[Artist initials]/[Song]" it would immediately make the FI more accessible and, dare I say, even more desirable? You could then have the 10 most popular bass synth sounds as the first bank? Just a thought!
  12. Used, in great condition except the zip has a tendency to do what Pedaltrain gigbag zips have a tendency to do. Velcro already on, plus a tiny bit underneath where I had a power isolator. Price is posted to mainland UK. Please forgive the upside down pics 😆
  13. The wonderful Colin Holton seems to be the only guy in Salisbury who gives us a gig, yet another Salisbury Live thing for us! If anybody out there in Bass Chat land has a spare half an hour on Saturday afternoon, we're on from 3pm til 3.30pm at the world famous Wiltshire venue - The Barford Inn (I made that bit up about it being world famous, it's 2 miles from me and I've never been there 🤣). It's just off the A30 about 5-6 miles west of Salisbury, I'm looking forward to seeing a couple of the bands after us so I'll see you all there for a pint 😉... it's your round 🤘🏻
  14. It’s a transparent yellow Vintage brand clone - it is surprisingly good
  15. Today
  16. Bought some strings from Ash. Spot on, rapid delivery, well packed, excellent communication. +++++ Thanks
  17. I came across this at the weekend. I could spend ages picking out fx here, there’s definitely octaver use, I always felt the EHX Bassballs was a big part of the sound, a big part of the pedalboard was an old Korg G5. With a multi you’re going to have to programme it in, picking out the sounds and effects in use. Other than that it’s well over a grand in various pedals I’d say to get the various textures going on. I found this picture which looks simpler than his older board https://www.facebook.com/OfficialCassLewis/photos/pb.100063918541965.-2207520000/1972539592847681/?type=3&locale=pt_BR But there are definitely a bunch of pedals under the Digitech Synth Wah and the Korg G5.
  18. Heres my rig. Ampeg SVT CL and Orange AD200. Both sound great through the SVT212!
  19. my friend is giving this to me next week, not sure if this will work as I’ve inly seen the mxr switch used on the bass synth. my patch cable is ts only
  20. Planned setup. Still thinking if I should go with an external comp or not. But yeah, pretty much any of these iterations. I’ve fully embraced my Anagram setup. Just needed a good synth.
  21. Does your switch have two TS cables or one TRS? One of the dual switches might still work if it is TRS.
  22. Is it only that tap tempo switch that works for the mxr bass synth or can I use like a moaly dual foot switch?
  23. I saw a 1960s Rapier for £700 in a Manchester music shop. Was lovely to look at and play. I nearly dropped the cash.
  24. Just wanna say most of my C4 presets, I got from you!
  25. A new player on here, this is the Felix Pastorius bass line for the Bob Mintzer tune, 'I Knew His Father' from the 2013 Yellowjackets album, 'A Rise In The Road'. Shades of Weather Report. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/i-knew-his-father-yellowjackets/
