  1. Yes, micro POG is digital and has wet and dry outs. I’m sending the wet output woth ocatve up only through the GT-1b (it has high gain Gtr amp sims) adding a bit of delay and verb gets you close to the RB type sound. I’ve actually spent a lot of time working with different setups; AKAI unibass, micro POG, and even Hex pickup equipment to achieve the split effect. I still favour the POG and a multi such as the GT-1b.
  2. You are correct, I’m splitting the signal in a micro POG and then processing the signal with the GT-1b apologies for not being clear.
  3. Cheers for the heads up, now ordered.
  4. I’ve been using this for all my own scribbled charts and any other dots for ages. Fulfills all your criteria above: https://itunes.apple.com/tc/app/unrealbook/id370135173?mt=8
  5. Interesting, I'd only just seen this thread. I'm a long time user and fan of Boss/Roland stuff - GT-10b, GR-55, VB-99, GT-6b, ME-8b, BE-5b, zillions of Boss compacts. I would have also highly recommended the GT-1b for your needs and budget. Its basically a stripped down GT-10b and I think it actually has a few advantages sound wise over its bigger brother. Where it does fall down is the menu/GUI navigation which can be a bit confusing. I get around this by using the Boss Tone Studio software, which makes editing easy. Its also a little awkward to jump up and down multiple patches on the fly. I get round this by grouping patches together or adding a default patch either side of any more radical ones. To comment on your summary above. 1/ It did take me some considerable tweaking to finally settle on a transparent default patch at something close to unity gain. The pre loaded patches all seemed very hot and so I started from scratch constantly bypassing the GT-1b to check. Once this was done I designed all my patches using the default patch as starting point and again bypassing and checking levels etc. repeatedly. 2/ The Chorus has a Low and High pass filter built in. If you set the The 'Lowcut' to anything above 125Hz you should retain all the low end as It'll be unprocessed. I actually find the Chorus in the GT-1b more extreme than either my CE-2b or CEB-3. I mostly use it for a subtle wash though rather than full on sea-sick wobbliness. I'd strongly advise to to spend some serious time getting to know the sound and capabilities of the unit before you dismiss it. Every multi effects I've ever used has its own idiosyncratic nature. There are usually some things that each multi does well its just a matter of learning how to use the unit and find the sweet spots. The GT-1b is a great multi and is a very powerful bit of kit, I've programmed (and use regularly) Everything form Face melting Fuzz patches, through gentle grind, some rudimentary synth patches, It has a brilliant OC-2 emulation, the T-wah is one of my faves (including boutique stuff and my Mu-Tron III), I've even managed Royal Blood type splits and crazy Hammond organ patches. Stick with it , I'm sure it'll be accompanying you on a gig soon.
  6. That’s insanely cheap, had I not already got 2 I’d be all over this. GLWTS.
  7. Here we go: I've Found Loving - Bass Guitar.pdf
  8. I’ve got it somewhere, I’ll dig out my transcription.
  9. Thursday for me.
  10. Blue amp too, that must be worth extra points.
  11. No problem, we’ve used it for a few years and it’s such a well thought out app. Has made setlist and lyric recall so much easier.

  13. I replaced my Equinox stands with some Gorilla stands. I had to remove the spigot and add a cup like this; https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F202322229989 The Gorilla stands come with an attachment that sits inside the top of the stand and the lights then clamp onto them perfectly.
  14. I sometimes use an octave pedal if using a four string for the low D, but I’m usually on a 5 or 6 these days so no need.
  15. Great bass, I have a black Silver Series P strung with flats, gives that pure Jameson tone. Great bass GLWTS
  16. Here’s mine. It lives in the cupboard on one of my regular gigs. Cost me a princely £30 from the bay and, well, it’s blue.
  17. I have a lovely 1025, the G string single treble still tuner has been knocked and now rattles. My short term fix is a good wrapping of masking tape, this looks rubbish and doesn’t actually fully stop the rattling. Where can I source a new tuner? Are there any other brands like hipshot that do retro fit direct replacements? Thanks in advance
  18. Here are a few new ones; I've been busy transcribing a few song that I've played for years but never actually written out: Delilah - Tom Jones.pdf I Got You Babe - UB40.pdf I Love Rock And Roll - Joan Jett.pdf Sit Down - James.pdf Total Eclipse Of The Heart - Bonnie Tyler.pdf

    A: 1/using the software editor 2/Yes, no, we’ll sort of - you can program the CTL pedal to do pretty much whatever you want. (Switch the tuner on/off or turn all the effects slots off at once, mute or all or none of the above) but your best bet is to program a dedicated “bypass” patch.
  20. Now gone, please delete.
  21. Yes indeed, not looking too keen at me getting rid of it either 😄
  22. Wow! Found the pdf: Place Your Hands.pdf
  23. Just been to the London premier, really enjoyed the film. It has an easy, watchable feel to it. Nick gently guides you through his passion for the Instrument via a series of interviews with the worlds leading players. A total must for any bassist.
  24. Yes indeed, not looking too keen at me getting rid of it either 😄
