  1. Coming from a man who bought what you just did, that's quite a compliment! 😉
  2. The IR is the Markbass 4x10 The first FX is the Morning drive: Level 37% Tone 87% Drive 56% Reverb is Room Decay 19% Level 73% Tone 7%
  3. By way of return, I'll put my favourite up. I can't do it now. Seems you can't change patches in the app if you're not connected to the Nux itself.
  4. Yes please...
  5. Still liking mine. Its my go-to for practice. If it had a bulit-in tuner and physical gain/volume controls, it'd be excellent. As it is, it's still very good indeed.
  6. Nine Inch Snails Irony Maiden Vanilla Lice No-Sync KFC and the Sunshine Band
  7. I've almost got the full set of Ergodynes. I still need the 2 pick-up EDC (700/705) I think they'll be the closest I'll get to an L-Bow, though!
  8. Every time I open a flight case. Though a have had (and do have) quite a few Ibanezezezs.
  9. Ah, I'd love to get hold of one of Heiko Hoepfinger's instruments. He's an interesting chap, really dedicated to trying to improve the instrument, even if some of his innovations are too left-field for some. Well done on the acquisition. Bet it's excellent. The L-Bow would be my first choice, too. Not ugly. More like a refined Bauhaus approach. Not as mininalist as the Steinberger nor as reductionist and under-developed as something like a Born2Rock.
  10. Sorted!
  11. Bass Viol?
  12. At last. Flowers and Voorman. And for me, Alphonso Johnson, Bruce Thomas and Tony Butler. Though, in fairness, I'm scratching around looking for names that haven't already been mentioned.
  13. Lovely, but my acidic sweat would not have a positive effect on the silver around the inlays...
  14. Exactly. Given the state of things financial, discretionary purchases are a big no-no. It's essentials only for the foreseeable future.
  15. I'm heading to BD next year. I guess I'll find out whether I picked the right shop on the right day. If not, there's always Bass Bros, Andertons and the classifieds on here. Not all in the same "category" of bass selling, but the end result will hopefully be the same. NBD. (Or it won't. NNBD)
  16. Haven't watched the video, but I'll warrant (not a hair metal reference) that the excellent PAW were also omitted.
  17. He does now.
  18. Back OT, and minus the stuttering Internet, Everything everyone else has said; SR5, Bongo HH, Dingwalls, Warwicks ... etc. Coil switching options and active/passive switching really can alter the character of a bass. Ultimately, try before you buy!
  19. This made me laugh. Because Geezer never endorsed Vigier, nor played an Excess, did he? 🤣
  20. Whilst I can't think of a specific unit, to my mind, bridges ought to allow the usual adjustment for string height and intonation plus string spacing; The latter being relevant as you'll be wanting good string alignment over the coils. Lockable saddles would be a plus, as would a very secure attachment to the body. Edit- having looked at the original units, I note a Stingray- like 5 screw attachment (2 either side and 3 to the rear) There's also the horseshoe- shaped casting. Even if the saddles aren't lockable it'll limit side-to-side movement. No provision for spacing adjustment is provided. The nearest thing I can see is actually a G&L bridge. They even come in black with bare metal saddles. Downsides? They'll be stamped with the G&L logo. They take imperial Allen keys. They require the body to be routed to fit them- They're not surface mounted as such.
  21. My Status Streamline had a truss rod. I get the feeling that it's easier (not necessarily better!) to build the neck a little less stiff and include a truss rod for adjustability rather than one that a player cannot alter to suit their preference. It may also be a function of the fact that the Streamline is a monocoque. Maybe a 'rod helps relocate the bending forces away from the neck/body (non) joint and towards the middle of the neck to give the necessary relief. It also potentially allows a less heavily-built neck/body join, which can help give better upper-fret accessibility (?) The Vigier I own doesn't have a truss rod. That's another story altogether.
