    Mine arrived in the weekend. It's great. I've put post-its over the tab to make it a proper music book.

    [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1504808959' post='3367533'] I looked at the Darkglass, but I was slightly put off by the emphasis on distortion settings. Not to say it wouldn't do crystal clear, so it certainly warrants more research. [/quote] It will do proper clean piano tone. I like that tone too. As it happens I often still put one of the drive circuits on but at almost zero drive - seems to add something I like without driving it.

    Marleaux Consat Custom 5 Light, modern. 34 scale, but mine has a better B than any bass I've ever played - even at 37 inch scales.
  4. fretmeister
    My stupid money Marleaux lives in a Mono Vertigo. It's a great bag. Very sturdy, and the vertical loading approach is far more useful than it sounds. Only downside for me is that the bag itself is quite heavy. Not as bad as a hard case of course, but still worth thinking about if you are walking for miles with it.

    Darkglass M900 will run at 2ohms

    When you get to the Snapshots you can change the values of those effects at the same time.

    [quote name='nash' timestamp='1504619257' post='3366097'] Is the multi amp footswitch out yet? [/quote] That one? Bass Direct have been selling it for ages - it's mentioned as part of a package deal as well as a separate.

    Rack mount for the amp would be very useful. Obviously every pedal maker should be making at least 1 model of envelope filter! Not that I'm obsessed or anything. (I think I had about 25 of them at the height of my addiction)

    DOD BiFET Preamp is great for this. Has a tone control too.

    I'm going to guess Cab Ultra AO Smaller foot print compressor Another limited B7K with new graphics.

    Look for an old SWR Amplite? That was pretty tiny.

    And one from Erik http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtOeWQbTIyY FWIW - The bright switch adds a massive amount of high clank on the full AO - to the point where I tend to use it and then back the treble down a little - to get a sort of halfway position.

    Seems to be the way the world is going. Apparently the next iPhone is going to hit a grand at full retail!
  17. fretmeister
    I know. I suppose I was just hoping it would be at B3K levels.
  18. fretmeister
    Not really - it does "different" to the B3K Ok it blends 2 types of drive but so does the Duality.
  19. fretmeister
    There's plenty of stereo solid state power amps that don't need the unused channel to do anything. I used to run the Yamaha P5000S using 1 side only. Just leave the B channel volume at zero. Perfectly fine as that is what it was designed for. Plenty loud enough.
  20. fretmeister
    £245. £50 over the B3K. Ouch!
  21. fretmeister
    I've got the full AO - I suspect that I would have bought the smaller one if it had been available at the time as I don't use the DI stuff either. No doubt I'll end up getting the small one as well for my small pedal board.

    [quote name='Black Coffee' timestamp='1504458266' post='3364997'] Good evening fretmeister, Bass weighs a shade under 10 lbs with the strap and strap locks on it. Weighed with luggage scales. Doesn't feel as heavy as the 10lb figure would suggest when you're playing it but I have a nice thick strap for my basses as I've a weak back. Hope this is ok. [/quote] Thank you. Too heavy for me alas - not just back issues, but multiple hernia repairs too. Several years ago I saw 1 that was only 8.5lb and like an idiot I didn't buy it.

    I got two 4x12 bass cabs, 3 basses, kit bag, pedal board, 16 channel powered desk, 2 PA cabs and 2 people in my old Focus estate. It managed about 40 mph then. The main issue was the weight, not the volume of kit.
  25. fretmeister
    Can you weigh it please?
