The last three packs I've got from Amazon have all been legit and the codes worked fine.

Are they actually real? I got some from eBay and they looked fine, but when I went to put the number in the players circle thing they turned out to be fakes. Which was odd as they actually played fine, but got refunded anyway.

I tend to avoid remixes like the plague as the remix of Trick of the Tail was so terrible, but as I wasn't that bothered or tied to that album, I should probably give it a listen.

Thinking about it I dont think I have seen him play in any of his videos. But he does the talking, with his charming accent.

Presumably noone has reported them, or they are too small for fender to have noticed?

The ugliness of them! Its just the complete run out of ideas, we have to look a bit like a fender but can't look too much like a fender, we will just get a child to draw a headstock, two lines, thats fine. Thats why there are scroll bars on the side of the window, so you can scroll past!

Bass demo finally out, and a decent one to boot. It sounds pretty darned good to me and obvious use as both a pitch shifter and an octave pedal. Well done (again) Boss!

If your bass has a quick release bridge, it makes it a lot easier - if you have to straighten / rewind the tuning peg end it still works fine, but the strings don't last quite as long as the metal up that end gradually weakens a little. That being said, it's still well worth doing. Welcome to saving a whole load of cash and always having loads of fresh strings available 🙂

Honestly, the internet dogpile on G&L or Sire headstocks (or whoever has been deemed not to be flavour of the month this time) is really boring to me.

I had the chance to listen to most of the first 'LP' (up to Chamber of 32 doors). Very clear sound vs original but the bass seemed pushed up very high in the mix and Phil Collins' drums too low (very obvious on title track). Need to give it another listen, along with the second 'LP'.

Yeah, but they don't make tort like that anymore.

By what measure? Seriously what offends do much? The simplicity? Even though the G&L is seen as odd by many, due to it's prominent but functionless pip, that's still subjective.

Any fellow Genesis nerds picked this up yet? The Atmos mix - which is also on all the usual streaming platforms if you don't want to spend a silly amount of money - veers between wonderful and... jarringly puzzling. Curious to hear thoughts...

Dunno.

How do they get away with using Fender logos?

Much better than the cricket bat style Steinbergers to my taste. Can we get NS and whoever specced the new Jackson Rhodes sharkfin bass in the same room and see what they come up with though

The 400rb on its own as a head is amazing, I thought of taking the head out of a combo and making a new head and ditching the rest of the combo but I’d have to make an outer case. Also the GK sounds better the more you turn it up.
