  1. I think tehy come with a padded gig bag ratehr than a full on hard case, which is available as an option.
  2. ChordBot is great and if anyone is looking for a really dead simple web based app to do something similar, Chord Player, here https://www.onemotion.com is fun, I also like the Drum Machine app, especially if you click the Visualise mode. My younger (and older actually) students find it strangely mesmerising! For a more detailed web based app, HookPad is brilliant for theory as well as song writing.
  3. I much prefer Gotoh tuners, the res-o-lite models especially over hipshots.
  4. I do like Sweetwater’s webshop where you get clear photographs of every bass they have in stock and you can choose the one you want. Very helpful when instruments have differing wood tops for example. I think this is the one I picked from the current stock as a favourite. Looking forward to hearing that it has arrived safely. We at Bass Gear Magazine are enquiring about getting some over as soon as. I think these Tobias basses need my in-depth review treatment, don’t they?
  5. Ooooph! You don't see many of these come up often, at all! I have one - interestingly the 4th one ever made. A chap in the US bought number 1, the prototype straight from the NAMM show. Henrik Linder has serials 2 and 3 and mine came direct from EBS. One of my top 5 amplifers of all time, this a beauty. It sounds extraordinary on top of a Big Twin 3!
  6. Isn't that Frets? Or Luminlay, ummm no, Ramps, no wait... String Mutes... oh hang on, Compresssors, Effects, errr... Plectrums, Ahhhh!!! Electric BASS!! It wasn't like it used to be in the olden days when we had to actually work to be heard at the back of the room with a double bass gahhhhh!!!! 😁 I jest of course.
  7. I do like that the pickups have radiused tops! I was only mentioning that the other day on another post. I also love Gotoh tuners.
  8. Both videos showcase all three models but the title doesn't reflect that.
  9. Spent waaaay too much time on this page. I have issues ha ha ha...
  10. I like that black satin model too, I hope they add a 5 string to the pack! Edit - oh wait.. duhhhh, they have lol... WAKE UP DAN!!!
  11. I wonder if, should I have the opportunity to get one, they'll feel familiar and like home again? I will do my best to at least get my hands on them for a full-on in-depth review. The Classic V looks fantastic!
  12. I have one of these, pretty rock solid https://www.drumcentral.co.uk/stagg-short-amplifier-monitor-floor-stand/?srsltid=AfmBOoo-DldH9mNtD0_aUhEEOHkle2mp_vFJFbcy9Mfir2VD3QJCusQnGqQ&gQT=1
  13. Hmm, Unless it's a period correct model, let's shave those heel blocks down on bolt-on basses, get rid of neck plates and countersink fixing bolts. Hide pickup tangs! - Especially on Split-Coil P pickups. Well done EMG (and Dimarzio) for managing this! Small comforts and all! A wider range of pickup cover types. Radiused pickup covers. Oh headstocks... either flat out do the copy you're trying to pretend your not, or come up with something original that doesn't look like a 4 year old drew it. Rounded/Rolled fingerboard edges as standard. 22 frets on more models please. Well done Sandberg. The afore mentioned Luminlay or decent contrasting markers.
  14. Looks like they've managed it with Blu DeTiger's signature Jazz, choosing to go with a chambered body at ~7lbs 14oz according to the interwebs. I'd go the Shuker route of using a dense centre block, such as Northern Ash and then using chambered lightweight wings, but that's not gonna wash sub £1000 - That said, Cort's Modern-4 was insanely light.
  15. Yes! My immediate thought! Very Randall! I wonder if there's any relation there (I've not looked in to them with any great depth other than my YT feed being full of reviews featuring the new 20W head). I wonder, now that bassists seem a little more open to the likes of modelling, FRFR, using "PA cabs" for backline and effect processors in general, if having 'hardware options' like the Randall / Synergy modules could work for bassists. MarkBass' modular MoMark system seemed like a great idea at the time, but I dont feel that it caught on that well. Maybe MB were "ahead of their time".. Or, maybe bassists in general are more likely to settle on a core tone for their backline and such a system wouldn't sell so much?
  16. cont.. Or if Synergy make a GH100L preamp module like the 6505 for their new Syn-20IR valve head... then maybe I'd settle for that instead - have you heard those? Insane! /back on topic..
  17. Only yesterday I was making patches on my Quad Cortex with the 5150/6505 models and captures. I don't think Peavey's James Brown and EVH realised what sort of beast they were unleashing! Absolutely killer heads. One day I'm gonna have one of those and the Laney GH100L in my collection! Incredible amplifers!
  18. Thank you Makes sense!
  19. I have a pair of the Indonesian made (the good models) Peavey Cirrus 5 strings. What's not to love? 35" scale, slim and fast neck through, through body or top mount stringing, mono rail bridge pieces, VFL active pickups, active pre, well balanced, and a low B that defies its price point considerably. Actually, I don't know if I've just got lucky, but pop a set of Pro Steels on one of these basses and the low B is as impressive as basses I have reviewed that are considerably more expensive. I don't need both now as the project I planned to use them with isn't happening, but I am absolutely keeping one of them. I think the Cirrus basses were probably Peavey's best basses and a shame that they stopped making them - but, Peavey did announce at last year's NAMM that they were starting to make the premium USA models again.
  20. If it’s a fixing to a smooth (say poly finish) painted guitar, then you could use Microsuction tape. It won’t damage the guitar finish and should hold still. I’ve never tried it with a ramp, but a wireless brand supplied a piece to a fix the transmitter to guitar bodies. edit: I think it is also called nano tape, but don’t quote me on that, lol.
