chris_b, I really don't mind spending money on something that I think will make my life easier, even only slightly. i'm not keen on setting different volumes on each guitar, i like to have any bass i play on full volume but not have to change the settings on my amp or compression pedal.....i'm gunna go for the Lehle 3 at 1.

Cheers jacko but i'm thinking the easier option is going to be setting up a pedal once at a practice or rehearsal and hopefully not having to mess about too much at the soundcheck. Then I'll have more time to help the drummer carry all his gear in.;-)

Thanks for all the replies everyone, I am sure the solution is here and all that is left to do is some research on the options.

Thanks Ead, that looks just the job. Perfect.

Over many years I'd always take a spare bass to gigs and only use the second one if I snapped a string. Never using any pedals I would quickly reset the gain and volume and crack on. Since joining my latest band I have added a pedal board using an mxr m87 compressor - mxr m89 overdrive - chase bliss warped vinyl mk11 vibrato/chorus. Anyway mid gig I decided to use the spare bass just because I thought the next few numbers we were about to do would sound better using my P Bass. It's only our second gig and I thought I'd give it a go. Well, most of you probably can guess, the P signal was a lot hotter than my yamaha and the compressor light level meter went into the red. I was in the dark and there are more knobs on the pedal than pedals for a learner driver. I did in the end just turn the volume down on the guitar until the meter looked ok. So...is there such a thing as a pedal or some way to equal out the two guitar signals so I can swap 2 or 3 guitars during a gig while not having to adjust anything on the pedal board or the guitars as I think in future there will be more of a need to do this?

thanks for the heads up.

Some of our second gig last Saturday in Marlborough. Still some tightening up to be done but we enjoyed it.

Just purchased a pedal from Chris. Great communication and the pedal arrived a day after payment. Also packed so well there was no fear of damage in transit.

Cheers Loz. Ooops, I do use a thumb pick also which helps. Mike, At the moment we play all of The Crossing bar two numbers. I love Porrohman and the Storm. I'd like to stick to the first three albums but the rest of the band want to have something from all the BC albums. We'll see what happens. Silvia, Thanks. I realised my mistake as soon as I'd posted, tried to delete and re post correctly but I'm afraid I'm pretty useless.

Cheers Oops, glad ya like it. Yeah i play with me thumb, it's the only way i can manage it. i have tried and tried with fingers but no joy there. Here"s another vid.

A new adventure for me but if the first night is anything to go by, it's gunna be fun. Great crowd in Reading last night.

take a look at Garageband and beyond on youtube....helped me a in many ways.

Black Foxxes at Thekla in Bristol, my favourite venue at the moment. Roll on April.

at least Huey Lewis had the balls to say..."I'm afraid you're just too darn loud..."

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1476383764' post='3153882'] I only ask because we're opening for Morland & Arbuckle a national act that does that Delta and Mississippi Hill Country blues stuff this weekend. I noticed they have a gig coming up at the Great British Rock and Blues Festival in Skegness, UK. Should be a fun gig, sound, lights and back line provided. We only have to play an hour set. I'll be home early for a change. Blue [/quote] i caught M&A live a couple of years ago in Newbury, well worth hanging around for their set, so ya may not get back so early;o)

go enjoy.

In the 80's i struggled to carry my TNT150 to the car. In the 90's i struggled to carry my DB-700 to the car. Now i struggle with a One10, mb amp, guitar in hard case and mic stand between my teeth....i'm no wimp;0)

18 of 'em through 5 bands over 27 years. never been keen on Quo or the later KOL stuff but they are floor fillers and that's what i'm paid to do.

Yamaha BB2000 bought new in 1980's, still gig it, still love it, never sell it.

Father John Misty in May, The Hot Sardines in June.

so impressed with what i've heard and seen...have you given The Pretty Things Are Going To Hell a thought?

Could someone tell me if it's ok to play acoustic bass through one of these amps? I have emailed Fishman support but wondered if i could get an answer on here quicker. Whilst at rehearsal last night we decided to play acoustic guitar and a vocal through a loudbox just to hear how it was. I'm so impressed with it I thought I may get one just to sing through instead of using a pa for small pub gigs but wonder if it could also handle bass as a back up. We only go out as an duo so volume is not a problem. Thanks.
