I'd just love to see an in depth interview with Ola to see where he was coming from with the collection of decisions they've made here regarding the price points vs manufacture location vs the competition vs his own Guitars.
-
Your views almost entirely represent my experience with the ones Iv tried too. I wonder how it’s doing? Social media is very quiet, if that’s any indication...
-
I use these, great high quality cables!
-
Tried a couple of these now. Nice basses, finish has been a bit rough on both, sounds like most lightweight basses with similar pickups. Could never justify anything like the asking price, at £1,500 I would be a little more interested, but still think a Dingwall NG would be a better buy for the tone.

Awaken Eternity are looking for a vocalist, check the vid out and if you like what you hear or know someone who might, get in touch!

From memory, I don’t remember the difference between 1991 Dolphin BN5 and my 2013 SSI BN 5 being that different in terms of depth. Think the shape of the new necks are more D than the C of old.
-
Assuming you understand how the blend and level work on darkglass units (bit different from normal), it sounds like you have had faulty units? I can't see how its possible not to achieve unit gain unless the blend was all the way dry pretty much on the EQ'd units.

The 4 String Dolphin is 44mm nut standard, whereas the 5 string is 45mm. So, the 4 is a “broadneck” whereas the 5 is regular. Bar the custom shop, the 5 string broadneck was a very limited run in 1991.

The Alpha omicron is really quite reasonably priced for what it is. There is a ton of tone in there, bite the bullet and return it if it doesn’t work for you!
-
V1 vs V2 differences? Can’t see pics btw. -
Witch Tripper with a Ric? Hmm... :D I have tried three times to get on with a Ric, two 4003's and a 4001, and each time I've sold. Uncomfortable, couldn't get it to sound like the classic Ric tone I was after and it didn't really work for anything else. They look AMAZING in my opinion, but considering the price of them they just aren't good enough. Perhaps I need to try a vintage one.

An updated shot of my SRMS805, now fitted with US Bartolini pickups and preamp, great expense but great reward!
-
Gotta be honest though, change of venue and combination with the guitar show makes me more hesitant about grabbing tickets until fuller details are out...
-
Despite having a number of pedals, in my function band I use only my compressor, unless the bass tone to a particular song is particularly iconic (I.e Time Is Running Out is in the set, so on goes the dirt pedals). Use the amps EQ to adjust to the room in sound check, DI to the board if PA supported. Pretty simple and stripped back really.
-
Gorgeous! I think that would be an AB1, as opposed to an ABZ -
Being so slim and being the first pedal in line, it feels better/ more secure to have it on its side and a right angle jack feeding it. ......also, I don’t have a matching pancake cable long enough to accommodate it in portrait ....😂

A small update to the board 🙂

*SOLD* Future Impact synth pedal by pandaMIDI
Kev replied to neilmurraybass's topic in Effects For Sale
I'd definitely love to try one with the current firmware. I bought one new initially and returned it in a matter of days as I just couldn't get it to track as well as a Deep Impact, also had an issue gaining unity with the Dry signal, it was very quiet! May have had a dud, all sounds very exciting now though! -

It's oh so tempting. -
Well yeah, one of them certainly hasn’t innovated. Can’t say Iv heard of Grossman though, appears they are located in Europe too so doesn’t surprise me they’re cheaper.
-
Some of the biggest IFs ever 😂
-
Invent and innovate are not necessarily the same thing; in this context they brought a product to market and I was referring to people in this thread making their own based upon it. I am, however, assuming knowledge that there is no other product that works in this same way i.e. foam with string cut-outs stuck to wood and designed to be placed on top of strings. If I'm wrong, hands held up!
-
Shame a builder can't charge for innovation anymore. Everyone complaining about the cost, yet are now taking the idea and making their own versions because it doesn't require any real skill. Consider the size and location of the company, is he really going to shift the volumes of these he would need to make it worthwhile if he sold it for a tenner?
-
Don’t need to convince me mate, in my opinion Darkglass build the best bass preamps on the planet I don’t need another B7K, and I’m still tempted by the price and the artwork! -
Well, you've just cost me £300 or so! Had no idea about this pedal, it looks like a FI killer!
