Ah now, behave yourself @Ander87!

Except there are no retention slots for the saddle screws on the bridge so the bridge pieces will get pulled all over the place. It's a fix that shouldn't be necessary anyway

Yeah, but they're not pre-production models or something in the videos are they? -

So, exactly where is the bridge pickup placed on the Epiphone on the production models? As per stock photos or as per videos that are out now? -

Yeah I'm looking forward to the "post-fettled" version! -

Drives/Distortions/Fuzzes through amp DI - Beat the fizz?
Bigwan replied to thisisswanbon's topic in Effects
I believe you can load whatever IRs you want using the Darkglass Suite. I never needed to for my purposes. EDIT: Website confirms that 3rd party IRs can be loaded onto the Element using the desktop version of the Darkglass Suite -

I'd second the Element suggestion. A brilliant bit of kit. -

Just received an HX Stomp XL from S'manth who responded to my wanted ad. Smooth throughout and I'm very pleased. Sort of deal that makes basschat what it is!

Currently planning out an ampless setup. Stomp XL on its way. Currently thinking "Bass > HX Stomp XL (with Tech21 dUg in loop 1, Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon in loop 2 with presets MIDI controlled) > PA/IEM (and possibly an amp running a homemade shaker platform)". I may go "Bass > HX Stomp XL (with Tech21 dUg in loop 1, DIY TS-50 preamp in loop 2) > Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon (with presets MIDI controlled) > PA/IEM/etc." depending how the TS-50 and MIDI control of the Darkglass turns out. I've too many amps knocking around so there may be a cull there and just replace the lot with something FRFR, probably QSC. For personal practice I'm just using a single studio monitor at the minute and it sounds excellent.

Certainly looks like the best balance of cost v function for what I'm looking for... Sizeable piece of hardware though!

I've been using a Mooer L6 for loop switching for a few months and it's a great bit of kit, but I've recently got my hands on a Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon and would like to start switching presets on it along with other pedals so I'm looking for suggestions for a pedal switcher with MIDI capability. Only used a max of 4 loops so far so not looking anything massive. I'm already aware of the Boss ES-5, but I'm not looking to spend 400 quid, thank you very much!

Since Dan Lakin has been co-designing their recent offerings surely they could come up with something a bit better than this?

What is the most you'd personally pay for a new bass?
Bigwan replied to lidl e's topic in Bass Guitars
£1.8k. Never popped that limit and don't intend to unless I found "the one"... -

Comes down to one thing. Cost. -
No mention of scale on that ad...

Mustang sounding great!

I built a clone of the Fat General (Pedalpcb General Tso) and it knocked a Cali76 CB off my board - like you I prefer something simple, set and forget, as far as compressors go. The CB is an AWESOME pedal, but the Tso could get the sound and, more importantly, the response I was looking for from a compressor with fewer controls, and allow me to free up a fair wedge of dough for other pedal projects.
-
Your description of your ideal compressor describes the ThorpyFX Fat General to a T... Just to muddy the waters a bit Ander!

With all the short scale love going around I'd love to see a U7/U9/U10 version with roasted neck, etc.
