Santa is treating me to a new power supply for my Nux Bumblebee pedalboard so I'm looking for the Basschat wisdom givers to point me in the right direction please. I need a minimum of 8 outputs, a 12v option , isolated and ideally a proper mains lead. Is there any benefit in spending over £100 on a branded one as opposed to £40 on a generic Chinese jobbie like a Caline or Joyo?

Nope, its got some bass models in there as well. And some of the clean guitar amp models work really work for bass as well - it's just labels....The media integration is really good, headphone sound is excellent and the tiny speakers are ok at home practice volumes.

I have a Positive Grid Spark 40 and rather like it. Does loads of other stuff as well.... It has a selection of bass amps built in to it. https://www.guitarplayer.com/reviews/positive-grid-spark-review

I had that from our drummer a few years back at a gig. Venue had a hollow floored stage and apparently the rumble from my rig was making his insides move around unpleasantly. I spent the whole gig laughing at him looking like he was going to poop... 😂😂😂

On your doorstep I believe 🤔☺️ The Papillon

Last nights gig was at a bar in the Essex Riviera's equivalent of St Tropez (or Sarfend as it is known locally). Freezing cold, wet and windy outside and the place had been really quiet all week - the landlord admitted he was a bit glum about the prospects of making any money on the night. We had a few gremlins during set up - singist getting a zap through the mic so we had to switch a load of mains cables around and then the geetard forgot to switch the sub back on. Consequently it all sounded weird and gutless when we soundchecked. I always stand out front whilst the geetard does the desk and it just sounded odd to me whatever we did but i was assuming it was an unfamiliar room. It was a big raised stage and you frequently find all the bass going into the floor into those sort of rooms. Eventually I figured out that he hadn't switched the sub back on!!! Fortunately we got about 60 people in so the evening ended up being a good one. Great lively crowd and we played pretty well and enjoyed ourselves playing some stuff that we can't normally do in a non rocky pub (Bark at the Moon and Get the Funk Out are always fun to play). Lots of nice comments at half time and afterwards and we came away with a glow on. Here's a pic from the crowd....

How much were they? If it looks too good to be true applies here…..

I've found both DR HiBeams and Dunlop Super Brights to feel a bit softer to the fingers

Looks like Francis is hoovering up all the Hipshot tuners at the moment as he bought some from me as well 🙂 Dead easy transaction and brilliant comms so highly recommended!

She's still a stunner!!!! Good to know the relay worked ok to get her over to you 🙂

It bit the dust a few months back and moved north to a nice chap on here. For no other reason than something else I fancied popped up and my gear replacement policy kicked in. My Zon isn’t ever for sale, my Precision isn’t getting played but is rocketing in value so I can’t sell it and Betsyish was last in so first out on this occasion.

I bought it years ago when Thomann were blowing them out for £150. Brilliant bit of kit and you rarely see them come up used. I think everyone keeps them....

Love it tbh - much better than the previous Pitchblacks that i had. The display is excellent. I picked it up for £20 used off ebay a couple of years ago :-) If it went pop i wouldn't hesitate in getting another one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353525802000?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338343596&toolid=10001&customid=eb%3Ag%3Avms%3Aeb%3Ap%3A353525802000%3BCj0KCQjw8p2MBhCiARIsADDUFVEdyQohsDLutGdkepDssmBVSbsSxSd8ExTuwuu-EV46cfrBeELmTy4aApx4EALw_wcB&gclid=Cj0KCQjw8p2MBhCiARIsADDUFVEdyQohsDLutGdkepDssmBVSbsSxSd8ExTuwuu-EV46cfrBeELmTy4aApx4EALw_wcB
