I hope it’s not going that way… just bass gear innit. But there is always gunna be crossed wires when a million people put out a video and we have models, captures, NAM (which are called models but are really what QC would call captures) and neural has nowt to do with NAM despite having the same name. aye that Peggy to me sounds like it’s modelling the pre of a proper SVT which you would have to work hard to make drive. I would always use something else with it to drive it. On the bright side it sounds excellent and half regretting not making my gigging presets with it.

How long have you been here?

Talk on Corners - The Corrs

It would be cool to find out for certain, I didn't realise it was going to be so contentious 🤣

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

Paths and Angles - Ultravox

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.

Angel Eyes - Roxy Music

Tears a in heaven - Eric Clapton

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.
