    FWIW - my set are spot on, and I've hand many a set of TI's. Nothing dodgy or cheap or nasty about them.

    I got one today, didn't like it at all, The digital processing killed the tone of my bass, squeezed it and took out the natural space between the notes. Not for me

    [quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' timestamp='1433193769' post='2788873'] Cool. It's ok I didn't see that! Liked the link ref Flea's board great to see what the pro's get up to. I thought the taped control knobs was great!! [/quote] I just got my Source Audio EQ, played it for less than 3 minutes and I'm sending it back. It's DSP - digit processing. As I expected, it killed the tone of my bass, squashed it and took out the natural space in the notes. I tried it through headphones as that's how I'd mostly use it. For many players it would most likely be less noticeable through an amp, but I have a deep hatred of digital pedals ( or natural tone altering pedals) that kill the sound of a bass I love. Next.....

    Jonny bought a pedal from me, very friendly communication and quick payment. All good here Enjoy spending all your hard earned cash in the classifieds mate, this is the beginning of a slippery slope!!

    MXR Bass Comoressor - M87 Perfect working order. Only ever been on my pedal board, Velcro already on the back. If you'd prefer the sticky rubber feet let me know and I'll get some from another of my MXR pedals. Such a great pedal, the LED's are awesome, giving you an indication of the input and how the attack and response buttons are responding, so useful. Very flexible yet very easy to use. No box, but comes with instruction booklet. Not even a year old. ****No offers please**** Collection from Harrow. Postage is extra, depends what service you want, of course I won't make money on postage, please PM, Cheers.

    [quote name='Telebass' timestamp='1433227566' post='2788983'] I've reached this point also. 5 for me! [/quote] Think I'm joining you and Lozz there. I was originally a 4 for safety, but I can't see one reason why I'd need to change my Lull as its the perfect workhorse for me, and I'd only sell my Flea if I was skint ( looking more and more likely now, especially as I'm so into my Lull). I just sold a Jazz Bass as I can't justify so many basses these days, something has changed in the old brain and I feel better for it!

    Deja Vu, I think someone else asked this last week . http://basschat.co.uk/topic/262775-zero-mod-tug-bar-for-j-basssuccess/page__fromsearch__1 If it's an original 60's bass, you may want to tread carefully as the pickguards can easily mark from the pressure of the thumb rest. So you could end up with a 60's bass that has marks in the wrong place on the pickguard.

    I'll let you know how it goes, should get it by Wednesday or Thursday. Edit - ignore what I said about the Mooer pedal ( now deleted), I've looked at too many the past few days!!!

    Not tried the Funkulator, but I just bought a Source Audio EQ literally about 10 mins ago. A little worried as its DSP technology so I wonder if it'll digitise my tone. Luckily mail order has its pluses when returning gear you don't like... The MXR Micro Amp is a great simple solution, second hand they are cheap enough too. I use one on my electric guitar all the time and have used them on bass many a time, I think Flea might use one as a slap boost too. It'd be good if you just need more volume a touch of depth, but the Source Audio would let you sculpt the sound more if you need.

    [quote name='40hz' timestamp='1433176494' post='2788592'] Warwick Streamer Stage 2. I'm almost tempted to sell the Modulus to get one. ALMOST. [/quote] Have the seeds been sown for a slippery slide of GAS?

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1433164946' post='2788431'] It's nice to play Stax/Motown with flats and rock with rounds, admittedly (for example)... but it's possible to get a myriad of tones from flats by varying playing position, using a pick, using various FX and pre-amps, etc. I like rounds, but I prefer the silkiness of my La Bellas... um... ...dammit, I'm just going to have to get another bass and fit it with DR Fat Beams. Oh, well... [/quote] You're missing a trick..... Double necks, duh
  18. Chiliwailer
    Without getting too deep and messy here, I always thought the relationship between the string and the bass depends on the relationship with the music being played.

    Bought a pedal, received a pedal. All good, cheers.

    [quote name='krispn' timestamp='1431810512' post='2775286'] The review was from the link I posted - not my words but stuff that I did notice but said so much more eloquently than I could have. Im seriously thinking about another one (currently using a Basswitch for preamp/eq/di) as my drive unit - might be a good choice as they are really solid. [/quote] Cheers for that, I've been enjoying mine for some time, will be looking at it in a new light now

    Sure, it does look good by all accounts. Thanks for the reply. I should really expand on what I said too, given that it's programmable and leaning on the digital side, I'm wondering if that affects the natural tone of the instruments like many high end digital pedals do? It's not something everyone notices, but I do and it's my pet hate!
  23. Chiliwailer
    *** I tried one, see my later post of you're interested**** I'm thinking about buying a Source Audio Programmable EQ, but wonder if anyone has any experience of using them on bass? How are they? The programmable feature draws me to it, that's an essential for why I'm looking, and they are a £100 at Thomann so I'm getting ready to pull the trigger.... Thanks.

    [quote name='David Nimrod' timestamp='1433016744' post='2787152'] . C'mon, somebody try an Offer on me! [/quote] Yeah, c'mon somebody, drop the man an offer!!! Those pot codes are the wrong ones to date it, but if I'm not mistaken I can see 7504, maybe another 7 and the bit before obscured? So, therefore could be CTS and from 4th week of 75. Either way, it's not a big deal on a players bass is it? Shots of the underside of the pickup would be much more useful though. Obviously looks like a well used bass, the red in the sunburst has faded nicely so it's had a ton of exposure that matches the natural relicing. This could make a great players bass for someone who likes the feel of a well worn bass that has some 70's mojo. Any idea of the weight David?
