    I'm still using my old Boss DD-6. Works great. I'm not sure delays have tracking issues at all though.

    I used to really enjoy when songs were really influenced by the country of origin. That was interesting and entertaining. I still enjoy it greatly, but I miss that element.

    I love it - but I'm not thrilled that certain entries have been allowed in at the moment. And I wonder what on earth the organisers will do if they win.

    Viewing figures suggest otherwise - as does the amount of Eurovision parties that happen around the country.

    I always have a compressor and an octave on my board, and often have some flavour of drive and envelope filter. Rarely have modulation unless a specific song really needs it and it would sound wrong without. For covers that had modulation but it's not important then I don't bother.

    My Jim Deacon shorties were as cheap as chips and they are great, and the construction is more than good enough to warrant pickup and tuner upgrades. I love them! Hopefully one day I'll find the very elusive J version too.

    Oh man I wish there was something like that closer to me! I did 10 years doing Big Band and loved it.

    Errr, I started playing in about 1986 so I've had loads of sub £50 brilliant pedals as hardly anything went over £50 then! f*** I'm getting old!

    I quite like that. Different colour would be nice, but I'm not really fussed about aesthetics if an instrument plays well. I'd probably bin the Ibby preamp as well and put something else in. Headless on shorties makes so much sense - the string clamp means that just about any string can be used - on the older slant fret one I had I got TI flats to work properly with it without them coming unwound. Care is needed, but it's do-able!

    I didn't know they had dropped the cheap Barts - that's a very good decision as they were bloody awful and I ended up spending loads on some Aguilars instead. I didn't get on with the fan frets in the end but I might be tempted by 30 inch, trad frets and Nordys!

    When I had a pair of them I used one of these as I fancied on the day Mark Bass (various ones) Ashdown RM800 Evo 2 Tech21 VT500 They all had qualities that I liked - but when I got a One10T with a tweeter I found that all 3 were much better. The Tweeter just allowed a little more crispness when needed, and of course could be turned off / re-EQ'd as needed.

    What is the bridge string spacing on a Mustang? My Jim Deacon shorties are very narrow at the bridge.
  13. fretmeister
    Is there any point in putting a Mustang pickup in a shortie P bass? Is there enough of a difference?

    It’s kind of up to the FOH guy. Usually as high as you can get it without overloading the PA desk. Once you’ve run your DI cable to the PA get whoever is on the faders to tell you if they want more or less.
