I've been trying to figure out what's being used on 'People Say' by SIMO... haven't found any clear pictures of a pedalboard! I'm wondering whether something Big Muff-ish would do it well. I think Elad Shapiro is a bit of a vintage gear nut! Any ideas?

I'm hoping to have 6 or 7 OC-2ish things gathered here by the end of the week... will record some comparisons. I want to keep it short and to the point, is there anything anyone would particularly want to hear from them? 

Hoping for at least OC-2, OC-5, COG T16, Octavbre, MXR vintage, Mark Bass Mini...

Really enjoyed this... lovely to see him in this role! Take a listen to one of his early tunes 'Shooter' if you want to hear some nice bass playing/tone. Sean Hurley i believe! 

Arrrghh... this is just what i've been looking for and couldn't have come at a worse time   Would you accept payment in Hopes & Dreams? 

@walshy looking forward to a report once in use... somehow! 

@Quatschmacher the only UK stockist arn't they? Mark says the next batch will be December, if anyone has bought one and doesn't love it i'd be happy to take it off their hands. Been hoping for a small two switch OC for ages! Currently using a COG, bit of a different beast though. The new Markbass one is awesome too....

Plenty of buzz about the new OC-5, but less about the new mini dual-switch Octavbre... anybody picked one up? Strongly considering placing an order myself. Interested to hear peoples thoughts on this or the previous, not sure if the actual circuit is different! 

I also appreciate that half the fun is in the problem solving however!

Honestly for the price of a decent speaker replacement and less man hours you could probably get a decent bass-specific small combo, like the smallest Fender Rumble 2nd hand?

Do you mean no dots along the side of the fingerboard, above the E?

Actually on the front of the fingerboard, between the frets. Odd, as i love a non-dotted fretless!

A facelift for the masterpiece... Minty or Tortoisey? 

I should also say that I'm always happy to answer or seek the answers to any Sandberg related questions anyone has... inbox is always open!

Just be sure you could handle the lack of fingerboard dots is all i'd say... I find it throws me! Other than that, Sandberg all the way. I am a biased multiple VM owning endorsee however! Played this TT4 the other day, currently residing at Classic & Cool guitars/Limelight in Devon. Best bass I've ever played? Quite possibly....

These bags are the bog's dollocks, GLWTS!

@obi 2 kenobi I can't believe I hadn't thought of Tuxedo for some synth bass stuff... Great shout! That Bruno album is a goldmine too, still trying to get the 'that's what i like' patch together.

I just had a setlist through for a live stream gig in 2 weeks, and I think about half of it is Synth bass classics so it's back to the shed for sure, would love to do them justice!

I thought I might throw my rig from a few nights ago into the ring, if only to remind us all that, despite the doom 'n' gloomers, rock and roll isn't quite dead yet!

Nord Electro 5d, 73-key waterfall keyboard. Gigged by previous owner but just used in the house by me. A lockdown project that has proved I'm not the next Hancock/Collier/Winwood/Emerson... I'll be downsizing to something more befitting my abilities!

A few cosmetic scuffs, and there is damage to the left output, which i believe just requires a new jack socket, although it works as it is at the moment! Delivery around Bournemouth possible, not willing to post but I do travel a little so please ask.

Oh my... that is rather cool!

Sunday afternoon... hopefully... maybe... please! 

Howdy all... I fitted the Nordy, and looking back at some bass direct receipts it looks like i went for the split-coil option for hum cancellation This is a really fun bass with a great classic tone!
