    I order stuff off Amazon that’s a similar size to what I want to post lol. Since leaving my job I too have found I’m lacking in the materials I had on tap before. I’ve sent a few pedals out wrapped in a lot of bubble wrap, and inside a postal bag. Seems to do the trick, even if they aren’t in any box.

    Luckily he has so many great musicians around him that anything he does will sound good and tight.

    Watched the film about the making of it this evening on Apple TV. Probably wont bother with the album but its an interesting film and some good tunes. Sounds good in spatial audio as well, very immersive.

    No. I was bored one day back in July and brought a Yamaha MODX6 keyboard. Not touched a bass since. Its still early days but I’m getting better each day. The band just couldn’t find a keyboard player who would commit, so I’m doing it. I played keys about 25 years ago, so its not totally new, but very different from playing just the one note at a time lol.

    FIANALY!!!! 😂. I cant believe you haven't owned one already. Love my Mini Pro. Its funny but after have various pedal comp’s, as well as my Helix and Zoom’s, it was my Becos that really taught me how to use these things to get out what i wanted. Just enough control, and a lovely meter. The documentation on their website (and the manual) just seemed to click with me, and over night i felt i had conquered compression......and then realised i didnt need it lol. But ill keep it because deep down i do appreciate what its doing.

    And will be sorely missed. Its been the hub of my music playing at home for a while. Back to the ‘old’ Zoom B1-Four if i ever go back to bass.

    Replied and on Hold.

    EDIT: Sorry, the price is a typo. Meant to put £270+ PP. Got this a couple of years ago, and never thought I’d part with it. Ive only done maybe 2-3 gigs with it and about 10 rehearsals. Its mainly be used at home for headphone practice. Never had any issues with it, but its now gathering dust as I’m not playing bass at the moment, and I want to get a Source Audio EQ2 so this will help fund that. Its in good condition, some very minor surface makes here and there, which are covered by the sparkle finish, but has two more noticeable surface scratches on the front. Hopefully the photo bellow shows a that its not really an issue. Its on the latest FW Comes with box and all the bits of paper etc, USB cable, also PSU and an extension lead i brought as the one on the PSU is a bit short. Ill also include a small two way foot switch that gives you a total of 5 foot switches. Would prefer a local (to me ) pick up but willing to ship for another £15. No trades, unless its the above SA EQ2. UK only. Not in a rush to sell it, so will hold out for asking price or just keep it.

    Which is better for metal?
  10. dave_bass5
    Haha, or even Geezer 😁

    More like Derek Smalls 😂
  12. dave_bass5
    Nah It’s ok, I’ll bring my headphones 😂

    Stew just brought a pedal off me and it couldn't have gone smoother. Paid on time and, well not much more to say. This is what i love about selling and buying on here, total trust and reliability both ways.
  14. dave_bass5
    Ill see you in 2022 then 😔
  15. dave_bass5
    Only if you promise to use the F112 or BB2 😁

    Posted but all mine were class D, never mind 😂.

    Although a lot of us want more power, in real life i dont think many of us really push what we have. For my gigs i know a good, pokey 1x12 would just about cover it (maybe thats not the CN112 then). I guess it depends on the SPL and tone of the cab though. I gigged my BB2 for about a year, and rehearsed with it a lot. When i changed to the VanderKley 1x15 i started to turn my amp down and filled the room more. I gigged an Ashdown MAG300 C115 for a couple of years. Thats putting out 220watts. Now all my amps are 800watts, but i never go over 10 o’clock on the master. I know thats no real indication of power, but it helps when its one head and different cabs. With only the cab changing its easier tell which is better for me. My thinking is really that I’m not going to be playing bass live in the future, so its more just having something i could use occasionally if i had a change of heart.
  18. dave_bass5
    Well basically yes. Most, if not all our recent gigs have been on these. Thats why i love the Berg, as its not as deep sounding. Tight low end but without the extended lows. Thinking of getting a 1x12 version and selling the 2x12. Probably wont need anything for a while so it will free up some space.
  19. dave_bass5
    Although ive said i didnt get on with it, the 3 gigs i did with it weren’t too bad, although i still think on a crappy hollow stage its not an ideal cab to use, even with a Gramma pad. Took a lot of EQ’ing. When this mess is all over ill get to one of your gigs and will do you proud 👍
  20. dave_bass5
    I’m guessing the camcorder and PA have a lot to do with how the bass sounds in that recording, but it does sound good whatever.
  21. dave_bass5
    I think if I had the moment I wouldn’t get one of these. I’d like one, but i think it prefer something with a more varied sound. When i got my MODX in July i started getting the old analog sound sets (JP8, Moog, OBX etc). I was i heaven for a bit, but then realised i dont really have a need for them, and thought they all sounded pretty similar. Maybe i just remember them all in a different light.
  22. dave_bass5
    Yeah, saw these last week. I can only dream about owning one. Although i have P5 tones in my MODX, its not going to be anywhere like the real deal.
  23. dave_bass5
    Ive gigged both a F112 and BB2. Didnt really get on with either in the end, but in hindsight the BB2 seemed fuller and thicker. I felt the F112 was too clear. Definitely not flat, and with quite a big low end, but didnt have the overall ‘girth’ the BB2 had (and i never felt either had the girth of a more radial cab). It had the clarity, and mid ‘poke’, but didnt seem to sit in the mix well. It was always a bit to clear. I didnt like the BB2 much as that too has quite a big. low end, which i felt dominated the other freq’s, but looking back, threw BB2 seemed to sit in the mix better. I did have a good enough tone with both at gigs, but i never found either to be what i was really looking for. Given the choice, I’d go for the BB2, if for nothing else its so much lighter and easier to carry.
  24. dave_bass5
    Nice one. Will get it for Kindle. Ashamed to admit ive not read Dave Vader’s one yet, even though i got it when it came out. EDIT:I just got it. Even the bit about the older boys and their Yes/Prog records made me laugh. Same thing at my school, while i too was listening to TOTP cover albums (and Burt Weedon/the Shadows while trying to learn to play).
  25. dave_bass5
    Nah, its all talk 😂
