I know that I will never be able to play like my bass hero's or sound like them so I just buy gear that I feel comfortable with and just go from there

I sold Sean some strings and he was a pleasure to deal with instant payment and very polite with fantastic communication big thumbs up from me 👍

I've heard they suffer from a bit of hiss/noise not sure if they do and I don't even know if the genuine darkglass pedal is noisy

I'm going to try the cheap behringer Bdi21 to see if I like a preamp I'm not exactly sure of the sound I want which I guess doesn't help much I would just like more options and tones at hand I think If I like the behringer I would probably think of upgrading( I tried the behringer in the past but really didn't give it a fair chance) but some of the more expensive units seem really complicated with knobs and switches everywhere I'm a simple chap and just want something easy to use with minimal controls any ideas guys? I won't be buying just yet so no rush 👍

Real electronics is the place that springs to mind for repairs I think they do a lot of warranty and repair work for a few manufacturers so I believe

I just sold Chris a power supply and it was the perfect deal great communication fast payment and even let me know the item was safely with him which is much appreciated A nice guy deal in confidence

Pretty much anything ashdown is good But if you want even lighter maybe markbass or tecamp Best thing to do is look at the amps for sale section on this very forum just so much choice

I'm liking the idea of a preamp pedal but they all seem pretty overcomplicated with knobs and switches everywhere lol I'm going to try the behringer Bdi121 again as I tried it before but didn't give it a fair chance I'm liking the look of the ampeg pre with the scrambler overdrive on it that looks pretty simple too

Tuner /preamp /compression /drive 😊 but obviously the comp and preamp can be swapped over depending on how the pedals play with each other and sound

Stunning I do like a spector and that looks insane 👌

I might of missed it but are trades allowed as long as no money changes hands?

I agree with you but maybe the cheaper Chinese or mass produced far Eastern manufacturers skip this to keep priced down? But yes any company who really care will test the finished item

I don't know what happened But some people are very sensitive bless em

Luckily I missed that one But will probably get in trouble for saying this but I remember a few years back when moderators were being enlisted to bc and we seemed to have lots of mods and shall we say it was a bit of an old boys network it's still a little like that now for some members but happy to say that the moderation team who actually contributed to the forum do a pretty good job really and let's be honest there's a lot of very sensitive members on here who go running to the mods at the slightest thing they don't like and the mods to pretty well to keep a happy balanced forum

Always wondered if the bass doc had got himself sorted out and would return to the forum I know there is a bit of shall we say bad blood between him and some other members (not my business) But he seemed knowledgeable didn't really know the guy though

Awesome thanks it's nice to know he's doing well 👍

Didn't know that happened I don't really know the guy so can't comment either way
