Seem to have lost a lot of strength in my right hand . Undoing a drill chuck , for example , I have to hold the drill body under my RH arm , while undoing the chuck with my LH - cannot grip and undo the chuck with my RH . Undoing a bottle top , is a no no (fancy having to ask the wife to take the top of a beer bottle off ! - she can keep a record of how many I have now !) Seeing the specialist next Friday morning , going to find out if this is normal . It has NOT affected how I play Bass ( fingers or pick ) I still play just as bad

Hi, I use the Mooer Yellow Comp , and find that it "levels " the sound out from top string to bottom string . I only use slight comp , not enough to get a "plonk " before every note , but enough . Pete

Hi, Has anyone else got this pedal ? I bought one to give me more control over the 50, 100 and 200 frequency . My Lakeland with Nordstrand Neo 5 pups had a bit of a boom on the lower G and A ( I`m probably over reacting ) but this has cured it - at £35 ! Could not believe the price , so I was not expecting much . How wrong I was.............I now have far more control over the lower freq than I have ever had before . Cant say anything about the tuner ( have the Mooer Baby Tuner ) Just wanted to know if anyone else has tried one > Pete

Hi, Anyone know how to measure the Impedance of a speaker accurately ? I know that using a multimeter is not all that accurate . Reason being, when I put my digital multimeter across the terminals of my speaker , I get 6ohms - is it 4ohms or 8ohms ? Pete

Thanks again. Pete

Hi , Thanks for reply, there are loads of local wood suppliers around , but none do Lighweight Birch Ply. I have just sent a email to the company you suggested , asking them. Cut to size would be a real advantage ! Thanks again Pete

Hi, Anyone know where you can buy Lightweight Birch Plywood on the internet ? I have a project in mind........................build a copy of my Ampeg B115E cab. Pete

Busy week last week.............. Tuesday night - Two hour rehearsal ( Function Band ) Wednesday night - One hour rehearsal ( Blues Band ) Thursday night - Two and a half hour gig ( Blues Band ) Friday night - Two hour gig ( Blues Band ) Supprised to say no real pain ( playing with fingers did seem easier than with pick ) Still some numbness in thumb , and cannot pick anything up vertically with mid and ring fingers - not strong enough yet . All seems to be going OK ( I must say I was VERY worried about not being able to play ) Pete

I think the actual effects are good , just far too much background noise . Shame Pete

Received the Replacement ENO Chorus, and the ENO Fuzz late this afternoon , tried them both , far too much background noise , so returning for a full refund !.

I have just received the ENO Chorus . Chorus sound is great with bass - BUT VERY NOISEY background - high freq oscilation when pedal is on . Returning it for a replacement or refund . Have also ordered the ENO FUZZ - awaiting the delivery I have NEVER had any problem with the MOOER pedals ( Comp, Trem, Tuner, Phase 90 etc ) Will let you know how I get on .

Hi all, Had my first 2 hour rehearsal last night , hand is a little stiff this morning , but no problem . ( its only just over two weeks since op ! ) Pete

Had stitches out yesterday , real neat job , the surgeon followed a natural crease in my wrist / palm of hand ( not that it really matters ) I do sometimes wake up in morning with what feels like a large rubber band around my wrist , but as soon as I move my wrist a few times , it goes . Will try putting the wrist support on tonight , just to see . Can play bass ok now , without any pain , . The best thing is that I could not stretch my arm , for example , picking something up off the floor , without a sharp pain running up my arm . ( Median Nerve the doc said - which goes from your shoulder , through the Carpal Tunnel to you fingers ) All this has now gone ! Go back to see the specialist in 6 weeks time . Glad I had the op.

I have just got a Mooer Yellow Comp, and find its great for what I need . They are after all not the top of the range pedals, but I like the size of them . What I have found extreemly usefull , is the volume knob on the Yellow Comp . My lakland Skyline , with Nordstrand Neo 5 pickups on , and Bart mk1 pre amp , has one hell of an output on it ! I use the Comp 1st in line ( after the Baby Tuner ) , and " balance" the signal for the rest of the chain - leave it on with just the right amount of comp , and EQ for my taste - ( Ninety Orange , Mod Factory - UniVibe , Trelicopter ) and it works great ! One great advantage with these Mooer pedals , your pedalboard has a VERY SMALL footprint ! Pete

Played for at least an hour, thumb is still a little numb at the tip, but getting better every day. Stitches out tomorrow , LH woke me up last night - numb ! Could be because I am using it a lot more , untill I get the RH fully functional . Highly recommend the op ............................. Pete
