  1. Bought my hub from Bass Direct. Still no sign of it. Must be coming via Bass Indirect. Steep learning curve awaits me should it ever arrive.
  2. I posted, very recently, that the Behringer chorus is my favourite. This may no longer be true. Bought on the strength of the Trapper octave fuzz I scored last week, I am equally impressed with this pedal. Might not be for everyone, my taste in chorus is rich, thick and syrupy. Most are way too polite for me. I want a chorus which transforms the bass but remains string and melodic. It's early days, I've only had a quick noodle, but my initial impressions of Fender pedals has been reinforced. Nice solid case, beautiful if simple finish, and precisely the right controls.
  3. My favourite chorus - total bargain.
  4. That's great.
  5. That's a good shout. Love that line.
  6. Don't keep us all in suspenders!
  7. Ooof - that is nice.
  8. Oh yeah! Nice one.
  9. Which UK number one single contains the best bass line. I will kick us off with Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick by Norman Watt-Roy. Also, take a drink when someone tells us it's all 'subjective'. Another drink when we're invited to debate what the word 'best' means. And finish the bottle when someone tells us it's 'impossible'.
  10. I just want to say that DI Joe is a brilliant name. Carry on.
  11. I agree with @Lord Sausage. I went through a very short phase of preferring a p bass neck, but that was entirely influenced by reading Basschat. I had no clue that nut width and neck profile existed as a variable until I kept reading it here. I actually don't give a monkeys what size or shape the neck is, it's different across all my basses. The only card I can't play - or rather prefer not to play - is neck dive. I buy purely on aesthetics now. I keep a bass unless it's uncomfortable to play.
  12. I perform mostly in three piece bands. If the solo isn't good enough to grab the audience attention and not leave an apparent 'hole' in the sound, then that's not on me. I do my job, the lead instrument does theirs. Or doesn't. It's kind of out of my hands. One thing I know for sure, the three piece with the keyboard player is way better than those with guitarists. The person who makes the difference under the solo is the drummer, they can open their sound with greater ease than us!
  13. We have decided its digital
  14. I am selling not buying though!
  15. Mr Black, Double Chorus
  16. Hmm. It's a chorus pedal. Nothing on the builder's site to indicate either way. Just one mention on Anderton's saying digital - not really conclusive.
  17. How does one tell if a pedal is one or the other?
  18. Replied - not terribly helpfully I'm afraid.
  19. I have been through a ludicrous spell of buying pedals lately so need to get some cash in. Sadly I love all my effects so it will hurt whichever ones I put up for sale. This is no exception. A pedal with my name on it was too good to pass on. But I have many other chorus options so here it is. Price includes postage
  20. I used a pick on mine at rehearsal on Wednesday and they're still black! I may have to get a second set for my other black bass.
  21. You after anything in particular trade wise?
  22. I have just concluded a pedal trade with @bassfanand it went as sweet as a nut! The communication throughout was first class and I'm delighted with the outcome. A highly recommended Basschatter who I happily endorse.
  23. The phaser, envelope and downtown express are on my theoretical list. Not a real list. I don't need any more pedals. 😬
  24. OK, OK they're a close second. But no one makes a battery compartment you open without undoing anything, flips closed on its own and has a solid fixed position for the battery with no trailing wires. It's bliss. (the lights turn on and off with a small switch at the top face if the pedal, so, you know, they're pretty cool too)
  25. The Trapper is perfect for bass. Low end is never lost, the contour and tone controls are extremely flexible and the range of fuzz sounds very versatile . However... the thing that really impressed my inner geek is the coolest, best designed battery compartment I've ever seen in a pedal.
