  1. Decent! Bit of work to do but sounds like you’ve got a decent foundation to build from here!
  2. Seconded. That’s the other thing I have in my signal chain when playing at home and it can make a fair bit of difference. It has some great sounds packed in as well.
  3. That yellow is super cool. Might have to have a gander at one of these…!
  4. Silly question, but could you lower the volume of the other audio sources on your PC so the HB is audible without distortion? I have a very similar setup for most of my playing, but my interface has a blend knob on the headphone out so I can just tweak the balance of my bass and whatever is coming out of my PC to taste.
  5. I have had my eye on exactly that model since they were announced, entirely out of vanity as I already have two Fender P/J’s, but the white/black/maple combo at that price point is extremely alluring. Great sound test, thanks for posting.
  6. The 6x10 would’ve been similarly dangerous for me 15 or so years ago. I have 0 use for anything of the kind now, and despite not having plugged into an amp for a couple of years, the 1x15 keeps catching my eye 😆
  7. Speaking as someone who paid a chunk more than this for one of these a year ago, this is excellent value. GLWTS.
  8. Beautiful looking bass, and I similarly see that as character in the wood rather than a blemish.
  9. Just bought an Ampeg preamp pedal off Gerry. Seamless transaction, easy comms and it arrived within 36hrs of doing the deal. Buy with confidence.
  10. C’mon, show us the goods then!
  11. Pretty sure the Squier CV Jaguar is 32” scale with passive P/J so you get a little extra versatility if you need it, and a shade cheaper than the Player range... EDIT: so it is, here you go https://shop.fender.com/en-GB/squier-electric-basses/jaguar-bass/classic-vibe-jaguar-bass/0374560500.html
  12. Lovely stuff Lozz. It couldn’t be any other colour combo, could it?
  13. EB are really going for it with the signature models at the moment!
  14. With a bit of digging through the search function I found the blog post that wrapped up the day including the fulls results of the shootout and a couple of video clips of how Lozz ran the show at the time. https://bassclef141.wordpress.com/2014/07/12/herts-bass-bash-2014/ edit: and Lozz’s post:
  15. Glad I stumbled across this one! Bit of a faff, but worth the battle. Now I just need to figure out how to get the plug-in into GarageBand...! EDIT: this worked for me https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/how-to-get-amplitube-4-presets-to-appear-in-garageband/
  16. Lovely! How is the neck profile? In my head these should be slimmer, approaching Jazz territory but somehow I doubt that’s the case
  17. Fair. I had a “Vintage Modified” P which was from Indonesia, and it was a really decent bass. Sold on to another BC member so hopefully it lives on somewhere!
  18. Looks an awful lot like the first bass I ever got my hands on - a “Hondo II” which was black with a maple board and lumbered with a Gibson style bridge. No doubt a copy of a bass like this!
  19. Can relate to that somewhat. Lockdown has me playing my P/J’s more than anything else (both Jazz necks) but I know if I was playing with a band I’d be picking up something chunkier - either my Hoppus P or the new SUB - because my “job” is different in that setting.
  20. Congrats. Can confirm you won’t be disappointed when you plug it in either!
  21. The Jag sounds like it’s perfect for you! On the amp, happy Rumble 40 v3 owner here. Don’t get to play “out loud” very often these days (terraced house + 1yr old with an early bedtime) but they’re very nice things.
