I’ve got my eye on a Fake Plastic Trees at the moment….at some I’ll get one, saw a great comparison between that and the Benson Preamp (which I’ve owned before). The FPT seems brighter and less compressed than the Benson, which is a plus in my book. I’d love to have their whole range of pedals but frankly they cost too much for me to afford but I’ve not heard a bad word said about any of their line and the fact that they seem to be as at home on guitar as bass means there’s some a lot of value there

Here's a link to a gig we did at the start of March that was recorded by the promoter, one of my other VI's but the same board https://www.facebook.com/events/1122952138439365/permalink/1123747411693171/ We're on at around 36:33 It was a bit of an odd gig... We were told it was a live stream but it didn't come out for a month! Promoter then got pissy that no one tuned in for it when it eventually got released. I guess I could do a proper video about my current full board as the last one I did was ages ago:

I've got a hardtail trem plate underneath it, it just looks a bit plain on its own and the precision bridge cover I had just didn't do the trick, Jazz cover is almost perfect (maybe it's a little big).

Thanks! Yeah I had one ages ago, sold it and then found this one used for a great price and couldn't resist.

Here's my Bass VI and board from the other day when I had a gig. I might upgrade the trem, but it works fine, otherwise I think this is pretty set for now. (for this band anyway).

Newtone strings are great and they are really up for customer work too, i got some customer VI sets made up by them (heavier than the Axion...they were great but i think it just ended up too much tension for the neck). Surprisingly, Fender do, what is for me, the perfect roundwound bass VI set...they just dont string the bass VI's with it for some bizzare reason: https://astrings.co.uk/products/0730250413?variant=35287077519514&currency=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic I wrap electrical tape around the bridge posts to stop them wobbling. Probably not the most scientific approach but it works. On two of my VI's i've done away with the trem altogether and replaced it with a hardtail plate: https://reverb.com/item/6764636-custom-stainless-steel-bass-vi-hardtail-conversion-plate-with-free-strings Now, the bridge is solid and ive got more than enough room for intonation and i've got no worries about things wobbling out of tune.

They did when they discontinued the Vintage Modified ones and issued the Classic Vibe series: Replaced the bridge with a Mustang style one which helps not only with the strings popping out of place but also the screw is seated in the top of the assembly and doesnt risk diagonally hitting the string. Its still the same width so I tend to upgrade with a Staytrem which is much wider and gives more than enough room for intonation.

Sorry to self-promote but I did a video that covers my Bass VIs the other day that may help:

Yeah they got back to me on my order today saying they just couldn't give me an Eta for delivery so I requested they cancel the order, which they have. They were very apologetic but ultimately something must be pretty wrong if they can't get a pedal out in the post. I would understand if the pedal was out of stock and needed a special order but this isn't what they have told me is the issue.

I had an email back yesterday saying they are struggling for couriers and asking if i was happy to wait. I asked what the Eta is and I've had nothing back as yet. There are notes on their emails stating that they are low on staff and it may take a few days to respond

I ordered a cheap compressor from them last week, it's still not been dispatched which isn't great but it's been a busy week for business. I emailed them yesterday and haven't gotten a response as yet. To be honest, this isnt filling me with confidence.

I would say that the UD and the OCD's that its based on retain the lows pretty well. I wont say theres no low end loss as i think it does lose some but how much you notice will depend on your setup. I had an OCD v1.3 ages ago, which was probably the best OCD ive had and i swore that it was my holy grail but then the UD got so close and the TC Mojomojo is so much thicker that i didnt really need the the v1.3.
