I know, in a weird way I hope it does have a 1.5in nut........

If it's got a jazz width nut then I'll have to pass, but if it's 1.625in, then lordy lordy, look out!

Clipped form the vid, it also has a hipshot d-tuner on the E, and Vol / Tone / 3-way selector. Wonder if it'll be US made?

Yeah I watched that last night too. The prototype in the rig rundown vid had a rosewood/pau ferro fingerboard with white/pearl blocks, but the same otherwise. Not fussed on it with a maple fingerboard AND coloured headstock though. I'm a sucker for a signature Bass.....

This is my Mrs' birthday. Hope she enjoys herself!

Has anyone one here ever sourced extra long intonation screws? I changed the neck on a Bass of mine and the replacement vs original has a bit more wood after the last fret. I can get the intonation correct, but the screws are only then half-way thru the saddles.... Trying to avoid having to re-drill to move the bridge forward... Any other ideas?

Sure I've see Richtone music selling them.....

Perhaps a touch of compression before the mojomojo? might help, might not.

Just done a quick search and nothing really. Coda music are doing the LT for £729 but PMT and a few others do it for £739 anyway.. https://www.coda-music.com/black-friday/line-6-helix-lt.html

Good grief, that's lovely. Mark really does fantastic work. I had one of the US Geddy's for a while, but ended up selling it on. Even though the neck is quite chunky, I've (after a very long and expensive time) realised that Jazz width nuts really aren't for me....

OK!

Indeed!!

Have I got my terminology wrong? I meant like a pinned post / always at the top etc.....

Just to add, this thread is a great idea and must qualify to become a sticky!?

Yep, Mark is a truly decent bloke.

That's really rather nice. Well done.

Ha indeed Dan, actually thinking about it, it is more likely to be Erik Arko. Another top chap. How long can I hold off getting a Helix?!?!?

That'll be the one and only Jon Willis I should imagine. Great bloke.

Yes as far as I can tell, you can split the signal inside the unit. You could also use the effects return as a second input if you have a 2 output bass like the Yamaha Attitude.

Yup I've been thinking the same, Full version or LT. As far as I can tell, the main advantages of the full version are more ins/outs, it also has a mic preamp, the scribble strips, and 10 stomp switches vs 8 on the LT. What I'm really interested in is the ability to split the input signal, treat them differently and them sum them again at the output, I like to use the Billy Sheehan type of sound, where you have 2 separate signals. A clean low end signal with highs rolled off, and then a separate high frequency signal, which gets the distortions / modulation effects. It looks like the possibilities are endless for this sort of thing in the Helix.
