Just to echo the above, great basses. I had one, sold it, regret it.

The Peggy is a model. I personally wouldn’t expect breakup from a capture that didn’t have any break up when it was captured. I can go and push the Ampeg model now though and see what it does

True or False - Scott Devours

My initial question was regarding the Peggy model. I’ve heard conflicting statements regarding how it does/doesn't saturate. Someone suggested it was a capture and that was why it lacked gain I believe, I suggested that you'd still expect breakup if it was a capture. All I’m interested in is if the Peggy or GK models have the capacity to break up but seems impossible to get an answer 🤣

The Bart sizes Nord offer are BC/P2/P4. I didn't ask EMG about 4 string sizes as all my main players are 5s and 6s but might add it to the question list when I email them back.

Just read on FB, he’s out again! 🫣

Are we talking about a capture here or the Peggy (that’s what Darkglass call the Ampeg) model? I can just go and try this now if it’s the model and let you know

I ended up joining on the 11th May ... 2015, like @Lozz196 to sell a bass, as I never was a forum guy, so never wanted to register, but it looks like I've become one, at least here, for some reason. Great forum I must admit.

Nope as the paper will certainly stick and remain partially on the strings. 😉 An old T-shirt is perfect.

Steeleye Span last night in Dorchester. Current line up only has Maddie from the original band but the newer members are excellent especially the fiddle player. Roger Carey is on bass.

Yeah, I'd still expect even a little saturation though if it was a capture and I pushed it aggressively. The suggestion from Ivan was that it was impossible to get any distortion whatsoever, not even a hair of break up by pushing.

Carlsbro are still going! https://www.carlsbro.com/

The QC is good at adding a little more/less gain to captures (did this for guitar rather than bass but same rules I suppose) haven’t tried it with these NAM in the anagram as they come with 3 distortion levels to pick from as you’d expect so little need. Although I don’t think you’d get good results anywhere taking a clean capture and trying to gain it up to distortion
