    Nik Is this still for sale? If so can you PM me a price with postage thanks

    I think the problem is that IEMs don't need as much distortion due to their frequency response - amp/cab pairings will inevitably cut some of the top end which will allow more dirt due to the bass not sounding as 'fizzy'.

    Rig for my final scheduled gig of 2025 last night. I thought I'd break out the Christmas lights since it's that time of the year. Cab( Silverstone II) and pedals same as usual, AH250 SMX for the first set, and a Series 6 GP12 for the second set. Bass on the night was my 90s USA Standard P-Bass. All sounded rather splendid together. Merry Christmas rig posters and Basschatters

    Ah yes, it's not a Korean one. You can see the different control layout from the Import series. I bet that sounds amazing with the Polyfusion electronics. I love the SD's in mine. That's a steal of a price too. GLWTS!

    DOD FX25, DOD FX25B, Q-Tron (big box) Q-Tron Mini, Q-Tron Nano, Q-tron +, Chunk Systems Agent 00Funk (a close second, but mostly because is sooooo much smaller), and a couple of Donner micro pedals (a purple one and a white one). All of them did what I needed them to, but the meatball is just incredibly flexible; I can set it for any sound from any bass.

    I'm really struggling to get an overdrive pedal that works with IEMs. I think it's because the sound through them is so clear that is the issue. I've only tried a few but I don't want to have to go and spend a fortune on them to get one that works. I just want mild overdrive but what I get is a ton of extra bass with it or a cheap, boxy sound. I know that 500 members could advise 500 different pedals to use if I still used backline but if I could get a list together of the ones that people are using specifically with IEMs then I could start looking more at these.

    Ok, I have two. A rather nice Rob Allen MB-2 and a lovely PJ which I aquired from @Beedster earlier this year. Oh and a DB, that's enough for now 😉.

    It's a journey for sure. Beauty at it's hardest 😉. I wouldn't change a thing though. No time for bands anymore but music is it's own reward at the end of the day. Bass playing finds a way! ✊️

    Me... I enjoy having basses that (in general) feel and sound distinct from each other so not a Squier Mustang if a Fender Mustang is in the future. Plus, check out all the videos of young kids shredding on 34" scale basses. Small build is not a valid reason to choose short scale, there are other more compelling reasons.

    I just bought an LCR meter, an old Philips/Fluke 6304A to measure pickups and certain other components. I have results from a set of bartolinis. Practically nothing comes out after 4 kHz. Only reason to have a 10 kHz adjustment in the preamp if it has very low Q i.e. a shelving treble that reaches much lower frequencies. (Well, might be functional with a piezo pickup.)

    I'm a bit puzzled by what you mean by "enough fretless basses". I have never heard of anyone in this unfortunate condition, or anywhere near it. Please explain?
  21. martthebass
    Out of those I’d probably go with the Mustang…it’s logical if you’re looking at a JMJ or Jap Mustang upgrade path.

    I’m similar with James Jamerson’s bassline to Home Cookin’. I avoided it for years but have been going through the entire standing in the shadows book to improve my pick playing. It’s taking me a bit longer to learn home cookin’ than the other songs but I’m only 10bpm off nailing it!

    Janek G in particular often said when you gig you will perform better when you’re not thinking about what you’re playing/ going to play. When you have confidence in your band you think less, when you don’t you’re having to consciously listen while playing - especially improvising.

    Replied to in October. Still available.

    Yes it is.

    Now £330.00. This amazing emulation of the acoustic control corporation 360 preamplifier with variamp and built in fuzz is up for grabs. Hand made by the renowned JC Maillet and commissioned and imported by myself at great cost. I have used the 360+ for studio recordings, gigs, rehearsals and at home, it has never dissapointed. The preamp sounds fantastic and the fuzz section is the best I have used. I have owned this pedal for a good few years from new, as can be seen it's in pristine condition. Specially sourced UK power supply also included. Will happily run from other sources with the right leads (I used it with a trex chameleon). Fully detailed printed instruction manual also included. Only available as I have more preamplifiers than I can use. Try out/collection always welcome, or UK insured postage for £15.00

    EBMM know how to make a nice bass when they want to, no doubt about that. I don't know how much Pino might use his one, but that's not really that relevant. I wish EBMM and Flea would bury the hatchet and bring a Flea Signature Stingray based on his black/ rw 'Ray from the early '90's.They could have my money now.

    I had a VM5 with a Nordstrand preamp and it sounded fantastic - had tone control in passive & active and was much better than the stock pre. John East stuff if pretty hard to come by at the mo, bot sure what’s going on with him but almost everything is showing as out of stock on his website and he’s not responding to emails, BassDirect dont have any in either. You can get 4 pot Nordstrand preamp in 2 and 3 band, which would be my next choice

    Ta. FOH was just from the BP355. The Amp sim set to 'DI' and EQ'd specifically for the UB804. Otherwise it's all in the fingers! 😉
