    You can replace the parts of any bass but you'll end up with "Triggers broom". Then will it be your bass anymore? There are plenty of great sounding lightweight basses around.

    Back in my biking days the Online Groups I belonged to were filled with people boasting that they'd saved 6oz (on a 350lb motorbike) by replacing the front disk caliper with titanium or whatever. I always used to post that you could achieve the same by going to the bog before riding ...

    Cosmic Metallic pedal sold. I've been collecting and pedal-testing solidly since COVID but a lot's been happening this year and, as my priorities are changing, it's time to start letting some of these pedals go, including those that six months ago it would have been unthinkable selling. I'm selling a Doom 2 in Jade Green finish. It's from the September 2023 release of 100 pedals. All Doom 2s from and including the June 2023 run incorporate the re-voiced circuit (slight tweaks to incorporate some of the design of the original high gain mod). This unit is fitted with the new high gain mod. The mod makes it a little harsher and more abrasive than the standard gain units but it still gets synthy, and the difference is less stark the between the standard and high gain versions of the old circuit (as is to be expected given the origin of the re-voicing). The mod was originally aimed at guitar players so I'm pricing it at £330 on here, which is little lower than the standard gain model. Original ad retained for transparency: Up on the block are a couple of Doom 2s, one being the standard gain unit (in Cosmic Metallic (the purple one)) SOLD and a high gain unit (in Jade Sparkle)). Both units are from the limited runs of 100 in 2023 and are the latest spec. £360 each (including UK Royal Mail Special Delivery postage). Neither has been used on a pedalboard and they're basically mint in box. The Wicked theme was not intentional. I'm not really looking for trades at this point but there are a handful of pedals I'm curious about: COG T-70 v2; Hamstead Subspace GE, and Chase Bliss Spectre.

    I've found that Compression is something that really needs to be tested with your playing style and other equipment as there are so many variables, and it doesn't communicate well with stuff like Youtube reviews as a big part is about how it feels. My recommendation would be to push the boat out and buy quite a lot of them second hand from here connect them all together and do direct testing one after the other (best to do this when playing with the band at gig volume if possible) their resale value should be pretty much what you bought them for so it shouldn't necessarily cost much in the long-run. But then again, I enjoy faffing about with pedals and perhaps it isn't everyone's cuppa (not least my bandmates!). Saying that though, my favorites have been: Cali 76 Bass Compact, Empress Bass Compressor, FEA Opti-FET. The SA Atlas I thought was good but let down by the hardware a bit for live gig adjustments, Markbass Compressore is good but I was put-off by the size and different power supply needed, I didn't get on witht he MXR M87 (felt it needed a HPF or clean blend), EarthQuaker 'The Warden' I felt overly compressed the initial note, and the Pigtronix Philosophers Tone just wasn't for me - very useful if you want to add sustain though. I've probably tried others but I guess they were more forgettable. I was to buy another compressor it'd probably be the Empress agian, but that's partly as I want to also use it for non-Bass stuff and nerd about with the side-chain insert.

    No “worst” and no contest for absolute BEST for me - my Sandberg VM4 in Marley Blue bought in January. I just love this bass. In fact, it’s pretty much kept both my Wals securely tucked up in their cases all year. In fact, it’s so good, I’ve got a Superlight on order which will hopefully make it onto next year’s thread!!!

    The string spacing IS the distance between the strings and here too.
  21. Hellzero
    There is around 2 mm of scope, just like on Hipshots and equivalent. I had loads of bases with this bridge.

    You get them on Amazon Daryl or any major guitar / bass store should have them. Fairly common manufacturer. Well worth the extra money. They fit on the narrow part of your bass strap. The Shure transmitter is a nice tight fit and no way will slide out even if strap turned upside down so its perfect for me. I also bought a bass strap from a fellow BC'er and he gave me another one with the strap. Dave

    I’m building an interesting fretless with mine, it’s a stunning piece of wood, almost tempted to buy the other one 👍

    Thanks for the comments guys - I spoke to a friend last night and he said the same thing - the battery won't be able to generate enough power to do what needs to be done. I have some working out to do!

    Beyond the end pin stand for my EUB (tier 2 fair at best) I have bought nothing you can actually play. This means at least 2 years without any new instruments. What is wrong with me? 🥺
