Nice one 

Can I add that this is a great mod to the pedal. Saves loads of space on your board, is actually very simple to do (30 mind tops) and is a fully reversible if you needs be

Thanks Si - I'm actually looking to go straight into a synth pedal from a bass via midi (without a laptop in between), so I think from what you have said that rules out the Focusrite option, if that needs to be done via a DAW.

This is the holy grail Al, I have had no real success with it over a few years now. The sonnus does the job but to me it is a very mechanical process, not seamless at all. Sonicsmith had the squaver product which did enable direct pitch to midi (alongside their own synth module), it was good - a definate improvement on the sonnus - but still not there yet. Not sure if their latest product, I'm not sure it's out yet, will really hit the spot or not.

Then there is the midibass and variations on this theme.

Bottom line - it's either doesn't work well or it's very expensive or both. Personally I'm accepting that there are some great options out there that work really well with the bass - the C4, or FI or various pedal combos. Direct control of synths over midi is just not a realistic option though - much better controlled with keys or other dedicated midi controllers.

It does mean that you don't have your bass chops as such but perhaps this is not a bad thing. A lot of these sounds work because of how they are played rather than the sounds as such so there is almost a requirement to change the approach to achieve the result perhaps....

Others may have other views of info of course, this is just my take on it based on my experiences

Well it's fab whatever it is! 

Great bass. Sadowsky killer for sure!

Whoa, now that's a rare old bit of stuff.

Sadly (for me) I don't have 3k to drop on a bass right now. I used to own a Skjold WB 6 some years ago though, excellent instrument, great sound, great neck, it was superb and probably the most comfortable 6 I've had. The original config for the electronics had a rotary pickup selector rather than a more conventional balance control, it wasn't to my liking so I contacted Pete Skjold who was very generous with his time and assistance. A balance arrived shortly afterwards from John East.

GLWTS although I doubt you'll need much luck to sell this...

Very nice pre indeed.

Looks great. When you say it's a gigging bass can you confirm exactly what you mean by that. I've got a vague recollection of the term gigging but it feels like something from a long long time ago...

Seriously, nice bass. Glwts 

Amazing amp. I would be strongly suggest you keep it! Could you not warm up in your signal chain instead? 

I like dune but I'm not sure I'm getting this yet... 

Keep coming back to this, wonderful bass. 

Not sure I can even cover the vat now! 

Cort are really good. I'm selling a gb74 jj at the mo, it's too bright for me but otherwise a brilliant bass. I reckon the parts alone are more than the retail but it's really well put together too. 

Be really interested to hear this passive with the alder.

Can I add that I was the 'nearly buyer' on this, change of circumstances meant I couldn't proceed. Jonny was a totally decent chap about it. 

Nice bass at a great price, hopefully sold soon. Deal in confidence! 

Quite right too. The best power supply! 

Blackjack!

I was wondering what kind of music the bass is suitable for. I suspect others might also be wondering this too. 

I'll go first, is it any good for skid row? 

I think it's OK @dodge_bass, no asscisternce is required here

If there's a lot of interest you might have to hold some kind of competition to decide who gets the bass, I know I'd love to winnet

Lovely bass, if you pick this up urine for a treat 

Now that's something you don't see everyday! 

Man alive Rainer!

That sounds like an epic beast. I'm not sure I could handle 19mm and 36 scale. Plus 28 frets (did I count correctly?). Definitely more than enough for mustang sally

Stop putting these up for sale!! You're making me seriously consider selling a kidney to buy one!

Who are you kidding russ, you sold your kidneys for basses a long time ago! 

Merlins beard! How many of you these things do you have? Beautiful bass...
