like, a real one?!

metal neck? on a jazz bass with some multi coil pickup and a thunderbird one in the bridge?

I'm going to have to go find a picture of your board and then work out how much of it is modulation! Is modulation and stuff level 1, 2 or three of the board

I feel a great disturbance in the force...

Zoom ms70 cdr does a lot of ambient ness but not in a massively modifiable way once it’s on

I forgot that - used tend to go for more mind!

The last few on here secondhand have been £300-320 ... they are about... Is it end of line? Well yes and no. It's a digital effect... at some point it's going to be outdated, probably in more than 20 years time, but still.... will there will be some new shiny thing in the future, yes, will the "upgrade" be much more than what the Helix line is now? Maybe modelling of guitar amps maybe, but I question how much difference/improvement it would make for bass where the needs are slightly different... Also the last update was only a few months ago, and the HX one has just come out, while it's clearly a way of spinning the line out (like a mid stage face lift on a car) it's not like they could not support something thats only just come out.... And, crucially, is there anything out, in a similar price bracket with the similar features that is better? not really. (total curveball, if you wanted the volume/wah the full size Helix secondhand loose more value than the stomp, and in some ways for big digital multifx it has more competition than the stomp)

Still getting love @neepheid?

I have had the Zoom B3, then B3n (and still a MS70cdr) and the HX is a step up IMO. It is more than good enough. And you can buy that and know it's as good as you can get for your money... I was looking recently for a digital pedal but only for delay reverb and some modulation.... the choice was cheap (the MS70cdr) through to expensive (H90) and in the middle the HX ... which I don't think anything gets close to feature set etc. That said I did sell mine - but that was to move away from digital multifx

The HX stomp, in my mind is in a class of its own. If you're going digital effects, for price/size/features and everything it's well worth it. It is exactly this. ESP if you're thinking of guitar it's even more useful. Of your current pedal board it can replace everything but the volume pedal and wireless. And they hold value secondhand consistently, which can't really be said for the sonicake.... I would just find a HX stomp secondhand... if you don't like it, sell it on

(just for Andy)

You know for the next one you're going to have to find some vintage Yamaha BBs

No idea! Holding it on the router maybe?

Quoting a post from another thread… the “bollards” are machine bolts that go into the threaded metal inserts set into the body

Nah, he’s got at least one more board to build first!

The post were Sam has nothing she hasn’t programmed herself in some way!!

they look good, my board (singular!) is a voodoo labs small ex, and was comparing it last night on rock boards online thingy and the 4.1 are a handy size - but very deep front to back!

the crazy thing is I'm pretty sure you've still got pedals not on boards too! What make are the pedalboards?

Surely diy comes under a slightly different catagory

WEIGHT?

I would touch bass with @funkle … he’s the expert around here

I found silicon Christmas tree work for me, - they go in the ear canal but are held in by a gentler pressure than foam buds. I couldn't get comply style foam to work consistently.

I had a EQ1 in a Warwick streamer as my main bass for about a decade. complex but very learnable once you understand what you’re doing.
