I have a B1on, and used it a lot for playing at home. I then got a B1 Four and not used the B1on since. Then i got a Stomp and not used either, but the B1 has a huge advantage in that it runs off batteries. For that reason im keeping the Four.

Yeah, as i found out. Ive played a whole set with it before, no issues, but i dont often wander past the 12th fret expect for that song.

Slightly off topic, i was playing a Dingwall at the weekend. Ive never found them any different to play compared to my usual basses, and its so easy to play. What surprised me was i tried to play the middle bit in Alright Now, and for the life of me couldn't find those top notes. I gave up lol.

Not hard to find at all https://www.amazon.co.uk/MainCore-Speakon-Speaker-Loudspeaker-Available/dp/B0785KSF5G/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=Pa+speaker+cable&qid=1579807992&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExRVMwRlVVOFRSNjFaJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwOTk0MDMxMkRFVU1WS04zV1E5MSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNTcyODg0MzFBSlBaUFdQNjdJOSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

Well my P34 sounds like a funky P bass, the Fender sounds like a 'woody' P bass. I cant say if that's the pup or the different basses. As you know my P bass is very light and doesn't have as much body wood etc. I'd say the Fender got a bit more old school when i put the EMG in. Im happy with it, but given the choice again id leave the stock one in.

That reminds me, i brought a GB P for my Fender P bass last year. Its not a bad pup. I had the PJ set when they first came out but never really got on with the bass i put them in, and sold the bass with them still in it.

I used to like the small Planet Waves micro headstock tuner. Very discreet and gave me something got look at during Mustang sally (i used to try and make it spell out words) but i kept loosing them as they would fall off in the gig bag and either get crushed when the bass went back in, or just fall out of the bag. I went through 5 before giving up. IIR @Dood bolted his to the headstock by attaching it to the base of a tuning peg. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Planet-Waves-PW-CT-12-Micro-Headstock/dp/B005FKF1PY

Ok, try and unwind a bit. It's not good for your health.

What's has looks got to do with anything? Do ugly tuners work less well lol.

I doubt it as the pre amp is designed to be clean or dirty, so this would depend a lot on how the master is set.

Wonder if its a glitch. Both threads are identical.

Deja vu lol.

This is what GK suggest as well.

Looks and sounds great.

I felt the same going from a MAG300 to a ABM 300. The ABM seemed quieter. Probably a difference in EQ and voicing, but where as i could happily gig with the MAG, i was struggling with the ABM (in to the same cab). Never used the Deep or Sub features.

Ive got Two TC Electronics ones and find they work perfectly for my basses, even my 5 strings. Ive had Snarks and D'Addario and all have been fine.

If you use it in a parallel path the output has its polarity reversed. You can reverse it back but you shouldn’t have to. Line 6 are aware of it.

Oh, that’s a point, anyone know if the B7K bug has been fixed?

I think it’s a good compromise. The look the LT but with a screen like the floor, and for those not needing all that silly parallel stuff it’s considerably cheaper than the LT and Floor.

Just brought an amp off Pete. Couldn't have gone smoother. Very easy transaction, fast delivery and very well packaged. Cheers mate.

Pre order by the looks of it.

Yep. No valves in the heads.

What puts me off the Original heads is they seem needlessly tall. Having seen the 300watt version i can see id have issues getting it in to my gig bag. Its small, but takes up more room than it should IMO.

I read a mention about a rack comp on TB (IIR), but that's all it was, but I know he has also used/endorsed a Pigtronix Philosophers Tone Comp, and MXR comp. My money is on the Pigtronix.
