I put Delay last in my chain, you ideally want the repeats to be audible and to understand what is going on, specially with bass and the low frequencies it produces. One of my guitar mates has 2 delays on his board, 1 at the beginning and the other 1 at the end and both sound wicked depending on what you are looking for. Remember, there is no right or wrong in FX Land! Just let your ears (and maybe band mates...) tell you if it is right or wrong. But as I said, check various positions on your fx chain. Cheers.

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1405150231' post='2499133'] Not rock by any measure, but there's Nerve (JoJo Mayer, John Davis & the Japanese guy). Ultraista are also a worthy listen. [/quote] Totally agree here, although not Drums + Bass exclusively, Jojo Mayer's "Nerve" is amazing... and John Davis does some amazing stuff with his effects.

No geektards? Castrovalva. I believe I first heard of them on Shep´s blog. http://sheponbass.co.uk/blog/interview-anthony-wright.html They are on Spotify too.

Hi guys, Just saw on DFA1979´s FB page that they have just released a new single (new album out soon). Here´s the Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqBYHrw9_ys For those who don´t know, DFA1979 are a bass + drums only band (no geektards). They are a good alternative to Royal Blood (who I also enjoy listening to), who are more harder and "stoner" (QOTSA) oriented. Cheers, Byron.

Lovely looking pedalboard there, but the weight could be an issue for some...

Squier Fretless P-Bass is a great first fretless, specially if you want to get away from the Jaco thing...

19k for bass??? Regardless of the year, the serial number, the current owner... 19k for a bass is crazy. For that money you can get a Fodera, your FX pedals, your amp rig and still have money left. It is more of a collectors item than a player's bass, I would not dare leave the house with that '52... The only thing left to say is GLWTS, someone will end up buying it.

Thanks guys for the input!!! I have the American Standard P-Bass p'up in my Fender Reggie Hamilton sig Jazz and that pick up is my favourite P-Sound so far. I will certainly check the othet Fender p'ups (so many new models now). Cheers!

Hi all, I have a Squier fretless P-Bass that I am thinking of modifying. The bass itself is really good for the money. Mine is extremely lightweight and very resonant and loud (unplugged) and with a lot of volume on tap when plugged in (compared to my Fender Roadworn Jazz Bass). I was thinking of changing 3 major things on the bass: - Bridge - Electronics - Pickup For the bridge I have thought about the "classic" Badass II and the Babicz. For electronics, the East P-Retro is #1 on my list at the moment. And for pickups, I have not thought nothing yet. The factory one is not anything special, no character to it but gets the job done. All suggestions are welcome, specially if you have experience with the gear and some positive/negative feedback to give. Cheers, Byron.

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1401118834' post='2460234'] Used this over the weekend for a festival show: Fromel modded Boss CE-2B -> Blakemore Deus Ex Machina -> DOD FX-10 Bi-Fet Pre -> Boss OC-2 -> Boss TU-2 Si [/quote] Hi Si, How does that DOD Bi-Fet sound like? I have seen that Juan Alderete loves his lately and takes it on tour with Deltron3030 and Big Sir. Cheers.

Whaaaaaat????! That is awesome!!!

+1 on turning the bottom plate over. The other side is flat. But still, I have had a TU-3 mounted on my board for ages and it has been through loads of gigs without any issues at all. Get some good velcro and you will not have any problems. Cheers.

Maybe some dirt? Have you tried the Copilot FX Orbit? It's a fuzz with some crazy sh#t going on, really special thing. Pair it with the OC-2 and it gets even better. One of those WTF that you mention... Looking at your board and the fact that you have a Line 6 M series pedal (great pieces of gear, I have the M5 on my board) that takes care of most of the stuff... I'd go down the dirt side... Maybe the SolidGold FX Beta OD as you are doing some dubby stuff... Good luck mate! edit: There's me on the train not reading the OP completely... No OD's! Lol.

[quote name='1976fenderhead' timestamp='1401485333' post='2464225'] Problem with the feature is you can't correct the tempo while playing. So say you set it to your drummer, then start playing. Inevitably it will go off-sync. With normal tap tempo you can keep correcting it as you play, with this feature you can't because it mutes you (unless you have some pauses in your playing along the way). [/quote] True, but maybe that means you need to get a new drummer too... LOL just kidding.

Totally with you JapanAxe, if you need various delays it is not ideal. The X4 would be the best if you really need to go from preset to preset. The phone beam thingy works but sometimes, if there is some white noise in your signal (bad cabling) it will not re-program the pedal. Only happened twice in a friends rehearsal space (bad cabling) so imagine in a noisy venue... I use the mini's in conjunction with the PC Editor to create presets that you would probably not find in other pedals in the market.

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1401124030' post='2460312'] Very interested in the mini flashback. Anyone have experience of the audio-tap function? Works well? Si [/quote] I have tried the normal Flashback and I own the mini and it is a great feature to have and soooo easy. When you hold your foot down the pedal mutes itself while you do the tap/strum thingy... let go and ready to start. I tend to have more rhythm in my hands than my feet anyways... LOL
