    So I tried rolling off a little bit of bass and boosting the mids slightly and I think that it worked. I felt like I wasn't being lost behind the kick drum and it gave me a little bit more definition in my bass sound. A work in progress as no venue is the same, but a good start. Thanks for the advice everyone!

    @Phil StarrWe use in ear monitors which sound sooo different to the main PA sound, i.e. very toppy and they pick up every string click which can be a bit off-putting. However I'm more concerned with the front of house sound as I'm often told that the audience can't hear the bass very well so I will try your suggestions at the gig tonight.

    Thanks guys, I'll give those suggestions a try tonight. Particularly in relation to Pinball's comment above, I do realise that I need to put the sound of the band before my own personal tastes. I'll just leave it for the guitarists to be the selfish ones...🤣

    I have the classic issue of my bass isn't cutting through the mix very well at gigs. I have no backline so I rely on my PA completely. The problem I have is that I really like the 2 pickup mid-mid scoop type sound and while it sounds great in isolation, it's gets lost in the mix. I also know that I should be pushing the mids to cut through and while I don't like the isolated sound, I'm sure it will cut through the band mix better. So my question is which frequencies should I be cutting/pushing on my mixing desk(Behringer XR18). For reference my pa speaker set up is 2x18 in bins and 2x12 tops. Thanks in advance.

    Postage might be an option if this is still here in couple of weeks but I'd need to source a shipping box.

    Amazing build quality and value for the money. Probably one of the best necks I've played on any bass. Lovely satin finish and rolled edge fingerboard. Will probably regret this once it's gone but looking for a slightly different sound. Happy to consider trades for another Sire(V5/P7) otherwise looking for £250 collected from Whitley Bay.

    Excuse my ignorance but is this a passive bass? Couldn't see a battery compartment on the back.

    Hi, Your bass looks great but it wouldn't suit the classic rock that I play. Thanks for getting in touch though. Cheers Dave
  12. Davy
    Yes it's still available.

    That's a roast-tacular neck!

    Typical, I almost had enough money to buy this before I bought a couple of things this week! 😭

    Can the tone print function be used to assign a different type of affect to the tube drive knob or is it just drive type effects?
