Reasonable price for 4 string as I doubt many will have been poorly cared for?

Hope I'm not hijacking this thread, but I'd be really interested to hear what you guys would need from a DI box? The reason I ask is that as well as being a mediocre bass player I'm a mediocre electronics designer and have come up with a "pedal" that gives you some degree of volume and tone control as well as being 9V/battery/phantom powered. I have a couple of these with gigging bass players but I'd be really intrested to hear if it's something people would find generally useful. I have nothing to sell, but I'd love feedback if it's something you potentially would find useful. I'll attach my "user manual" in case you're interested. Cheers! Chris Embarrassingly Direct.docx

Nope - I can't say I've ever hated a bass.

I know it’s not popular on here, but ‘Later with Jools Holland’ has been championing plenty of music, with 65 series over the last 30+ years. It’s been viewed not only here but in much of Europe, USA, Canada and beyond too.

I got a Zoom B3n about a year ago, and it has lots of fun effects and presets. I haven't found a combination of settings to make a good synth sound yet. The pre-set patch doesn't sound great! Can anyone suggest what settings to use for a good synth sound?

i will say the japanese ones are alright yeah the construction is nice as always from MIJ it's just the electronics and general body designs that do my nut in, moreso meant the korean models with my original comment but it's just a bias against all tunes really, have nightmares about them

Thanks Dave, We share a huge dressing room with the other performers. Should be fun. Daryl

yeah not really the bass itself just everything fell to bits mate when i owned one it was like an ancient curse thought things were looking up but then my ceiling started leaking next day and it felt like all my plants were dying even the plastic ones looked a bit off mate so every time i see one it just feels like absolute horrible dread and bad omen can’t even look at them without feeling sick mate hope that helps 👍

Thank you 🙏 The bass guitar has added distortion and chorus. It’s from the producer’s sound bank rather than my board - he thought it sounded better and I am happy to be guided here. I added the drone note on the synth but that’s in a slightly higher register. It does all add to the mix.

What hasn't been mentioned and is slightly more concerning than the lacquer stuff - is why use a mini toggle there on the lower bout? It's too small for there and just wierd!!

I don't think you need to rule out 0.74Bn potential luthiers just because one guy sends out a bass with a load of laquer cracks!

Your head is right next to the rattle when you're playing. I'm guessing someone a few feet in front of your bass wouldn't notice.

Just to clear up a common misconception, the bisonic pickups are actually single coils, the screws that look like a second row of pole pieces are actually just screws to adjust the height of the real pole pieces.

Thanks. Strangely, it sounded a lot worse when I was playing, and also when I played it back on the phone speakers.

Pete posted out zoom b1 four pedal. Quick delivery well packaged and great item.
