You could use a mic splitter/combiner so you could feed both the PA and a Behringer P2. https://artproaudio.com/patchbayssplitters/product/282112/splitcompro

Interesting... I've always found them a bit thin and scratchy sounding. Unless I'm thinking of a different Behringer SM58 knock-off.

Vocal Microphones, what are you using?
Chienmortbb replied to Phil Starr's topic in PA set up and use
BBC Sound people often prefer the XM8500, if given a choice between the two. I suspect it is easier to EQ for radio/TV sound. -

I very much rate the Eden d210xst. That's why I've kept it all these years. I have tried other cabinets, including Markbass, Mesa etc. But I keep coming back to the Eden. It is a bit on the heavy side, though. -
I agree - has me debating if I need two. -
Clear-out: Various pedals / power / small gear
Schlippy replied to EmmettC's topic in Effects For Sale
Those Boba Fuzz pedals are fantastic, it's a 1:1 clone of the Zvex Mammoth with an added mids control on the Body dial. Looks like Vinnie's knocked his eBay shop on the head as well so there's no new ones available- 1 reply

The XM8500 is a truly nasty mic, but it is good to see that you have found its niche!
-
That necks could sound much different is a moot point. During the To d Ward much was made of the body material without realising that the string passes the neck for we over 50% of its playing length. While I suspect that the pickups and other electrics have most effect it is interesting to hear other people’s opinions.

They always keep these OEM arrangements close to their chests. I know Fender Strings are made by D’Addario now Sadowsky could be using anyone’s.

Stunner! Shame about the weight.... -
Didn't you buy a lovely looking Japanese Jazz in the Summer, WoT? Lovely looking example of an AVII you have there! If you get a good one, the American Vintage/Original/Vintage II Jazzes are some of the very best around. I know what people mean about the side dot markers - the ones on my American Original just about disappear on a dark stage, but it's no real issue usually. It looks like yours has a single piece back, too. That always improves resonance. I've been very impressed by the '66 pickups (used a set in a custom build bass earlier this year and just bought some more for my MGCS/Aurok Walnut/Graphite Jazz build. Oh, and Lollipop tuners for the win! Congrats

MARSHALL BB-2 Not to be confused with the original Bluesbreaker pedal, which was essentially a preamp-in-a-box - this is a dedicated, dual-mode overdrive pedal. "Boost" mode is a transparent-sounding clean boost, designed to push the front end of your amp harder, while "Blues" mode gives a much more shaped (and saturated!) tone, reminiscent of the original Bluesbreaker amps being dimed. I bought this pedal back in something like 2010. It was my main distortion effect for a while, and did a handful of gigs with me, but as I've experimented with new effects and different amps, I find myself using it less and less. I still have the original box and user's manual, which are a little worn in places (see pictures); the pedal itself is in excellent condition. Only one thing: the controls originally had black position indicators painted on them, which have mostly rubbed off over the years. Up to you whether you leave them as is, or paint some new ones on! Price includes postage to mainland UK. If you'd like it sent to a different country, drop me a PM. Open to sensible offers! -
@King Tut I’ve done the scientific weigh myself three times, weigh me and the bass three times, and then take the average difference between the two, and the bass weighs 4.4kg (or 9.7lbs for those who prefer old money). -
Mine is coming from Temu as well - about £20 as you mentioned. Bargain for that price! Amazon was quicker for delivery but and extra £15 or so...

Love The Fleece, great venue.

For anyone in the south west interested in this bass, I’ll be in Bath on Friday and Saturday and Gloucester on Sunday. Happy to bring it along for anyone that wants to check it out -
I don’t see it as cowardly (necessarily). Part of being an adult is to know which battles you can win, which you might win and which you definitely won’t, regardless of moral right or wrong and so walking away from #3 Blazing screaming rows don’t benefit anyone. -
XTs now gone. -
Price drop to £40 posted for all 9 - that’s just under £4.45 per bridge! -
Hi Tony, I would say the tension is very similar to TIs and they are super smooth! David -
I got mine off Aliexpress and Temu (got two, long story). Arrived within a week and cost about £20 each. I couldn't find anywhere in the UK that sold them at a reasonable price.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
Chienmortbb replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
So I am going for a short scale, but as It is because of an injury, I don’t want to pay out too much as, once I have recovered, I may go back to 34” basses. I have a bass that was paid for with some of the money my Mum left me. So the question is Hartwood Delta or Harley Benton MV-4MSB? The Harley Benton looks great but is not immediately available. The Hartwood Delta is available and the only downside is that I like black basses. If we ignore the colour issue, what should I go for? -
Been there! I know so many amazing drummers down here in the Thames valley. Lovely times ❤️
