[quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1506182240' post='3376948'] Haha...i couldn't tell the difference in tone between his jazz & his ric tbh. [/quote] And try to hear any difference when he was playing a Wal. :-P

ThePolytune is already made for bass as there is the function for it. One of the rare tuner able to catch my EUB 6 strings low B... Got 2 of them.

Careful, Fodera will surely make a signature model with this type of string mounting in the next days ! Yek, yek, yek. :-P

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1505685165' post='3373602'] I just leave the amp's EQ flat, and erm.......the bass's EQ flat . I just play differently if I want the sound different, nearer the bridge or the neck etc. Anthony Jackson doesn't even have a volume control on his bass. [/quote] [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1505716382' post='3373658'] That's broadly my approach... [/quote] Mine too, on my main bass the only pickup is wired directly to the output à la Anthony Jackson.

In fact, like most of the people I know, I think you are looking for compression, am I wrong ?

What do you mean by growl ?

Try the Glockenklang preamp : http://www.dv247.com/guitars/glockenklang-3-volume-electronics--227688

Getting bored and playing every weekend for peanuts were always the main reasons.

In this case, I'm in ... as one of the orange coloured. ;-) https://youtu.be/bAdqazixuRY

[quote name='ped' timestamp='1505313349' post='3370959'] My wife says WHAT DID HE SAY! YOU SHOULD STOP VISITING THAT BLOODY FORUM. IF YOU BUY ONE I'M LEAVING. Gak.co.uk you say.. [/quote] Heard it before. B-)

[quote name='Merton' timestamp='1505304771' post='3370880'] Or get all creative with Nikolai Tesla's wireless technology and have a wireless connection to the power and to your cab [/quote] Great idea !

[quote name='acidbass' timestamp='1505229946' post='3370394'] Agreed. I never understood why East pres don't have a centre detent on the EQ knobs. So annoying [/quote] Maybe just because, the older ones were boost only, so center was simply zero... That said I really like the new SPM-02 3 bands preamp, to me the best he has ever made, but my ears are not yours. I found that the Aguilar OBP-3 was also a very good preamp, colouring the sound of course, but in a good manner, I mean to bass players taste. But don't go too far as it will sound too much compressed.

Next time was very close. ;-) Bought Mick's TC Electronic BC212 cabinet and received it today. Another fast and easy transaction. Parcel arrived safely and well packed, and as described too. What else is wanted ? Will do business again with Mick as he is a top BassChatter !

The bass is now sold to a guy in Paris, just in case someone was interested in.

Alfasud's weren't real Alfa's and, man, you must be old, even older than me... ;-) What about AER amps, are these the Rolls Royce of amps ?
