Cheers.. That's my understanding, was the MAX that puzzled me. Thanks

So, rummaging through my spare pedal pile looking to put together a small board for a project.. So I´m looking at power supplies and Pedal power requirements.. Am just a bit puzzled by My DynaVerb stating 9V 85mA MAX... then checking out the COIKS SOL which delivers 9V at 665mA.. Am in looking at x8 the amount of power and am I going to cook the pedal? Cheers Jay

I suffered a fault on my RipleyFall, and it was kicking around for a while amongst my spare pedals. Anyhoo, I decided to reach out to Jam pedals to see if they could do anything. So I just wanted to post and praise what for the most part is a rare example of outstanding customer support. They arranged transport to collect the Pedal, repaired it, returned it in good time at zero cost. Just thought I´d share here in gratitude. Happy daze

Thanks for the input. I ended up going for the Status. It just appealed after an amount of deliberating. the Stingray was a lovey natural finsh which looked killer, but was a bit overpriced and pictured in a filthy state.. put me off tbh. Also the Status offered a little wider string spacing which appealed as it's my first 5er. Again chers jay

Sorry, I know it's largely un-answerable, but buying a bass without ability to try, and these three are in my price range.. and I fancy all of em I would appreciate any opinions, suggestions, oe experience etc They are different beasts, but like many of us, I'm an ´enthusiast´ and enjoy new stuff and and the process of making them fit in etc. But it is my first pop at a 5 string.. I have a 4 string Stingray fwiw I´ll use the bass in a project which is I guess groove based pop/funk. All comments welcome. Cheers Jay

A very nice and unique Låkland JO 2007 finished in a stunning Pearl green. Has been upgraded with the Chi-sonic (J-Sonic) pickups. A lovely bass with the Låkland neck living up to the hype, a dream to play. FWIW I will be travelling the the UK 17th June and can bring the bass with me to avoid the nasty tax man. Alder body, Dark rosewood board really makes the inlays pop out. few minor dings that I have tried to capture in the pics. No buckle rash. Cream coloured Låkland hard case

Hi, I´ve stumbled across a couple of Mayones basses said to be from the 90´s but google searches donut come up with anything. I´m left wondering if this a Mayones or not? Can't find another Mayones that is a replica for a Spector NS2. It's selling for about 600 quid ish.. Any thoughts https://www.finn.no/bap/forsale/ad.html?finnkode=343920978

perhaps a bit late... if you do some digging on PooTube, Andy Irvine does a video on the BB1000.. He raved about it. They look and sound great.. I let two slip by and wish i'd have pulled trigger...

And what a fool I am lol.. it cut out twice because I was driving the pre-amp whey too hard.. but I can now comment on the '400w isn't enough' that often crops up around this amp.. I ran it rehearsal through 2x TKS 1126. These cabs are really cracking, go really deep but only have 94db sensitivity.. They are designed to be run with powerful amps (based on the spec sheet) with the Eden falling just below the recommended amp power. Could just about keep up, but no head room.. swapped over to 2 X TKS H115 with 101db sensitivity and a lower amp rating and had plenty of power, so defo a useable amp when paired to the right cab(s). It sounded really great with the 15s I have to say, really suited each other well. Comments from the band a-plenty.

I did a shoot out.. WT400 against my Thunderfunk.. jazz bass through 2 TKS 1126 cabs The Eden is warmer and fatter than the TF, the TF comes across as more focused low end and a little more defined. It didn't take too many tweaks to get them sounding quite similar.. In a nut shell, and as close as I can tell, the Eden has a bump at around 250, cut this frequency a little and its in Thunderfunk territory. That said, the Eden still has a warmth that I couldn't dial out. Another thing with the Eden is how little EQ is required. just a couple of clicks cut or boost really makes a difference. I really like it. With the 250 cut a little, I boosted just a smidge at around 1.2K and bit of treble (shelved at 2k) and it was snarly. I added a touch of bass, and it gave a terrific Pick tone. All flat, enhance at 12 and treble rolled off.. great dub type tone. The EQ will really deliver a wide array of tones, but always with that Eden warmth or thickness. I'm still surprised by how much I can crank the gain before the clip or compressor lights flicker. I can basically max it out, but It doesn't feel intuitive at all, so I back it off, but still play loads of gain into the pre amp. I bought the WT400 really to satisfy the 'enthusiast' in me and intend to mainly use it at home, but tonight I will give it a run out with one of my side projects.. see how it fairs in a band rehearsal setting.

Picked up the WT400 yesterday and had a quick blast with two guitars in the rehearsal room. My first impressions are really positive and can't wait to try with the drummer too. I played my P bass and with everything flat lovely warm full low end but with a pleasant amount of low mids/mids that also come across as smooth. Dial in the enhance knob and it's really lush. The other thing which surprised me is how even the P bass sounded across it's range. I dialed in a load of low end for some muted thumb plucking, and boy it moved some air. Absolutely plenty of rehearsal room power, so i don't think i'll ever have any issues as I don't play many backline gigs. Cranked the Gain which gave a slight amount blur to the low E, but otherwise clean tone. I cranked the gain almost full before it triggered the clip and compressor lights.. thought that was a bit weird, but then again, my Thunderfunk is the similar in that regard. At the price i picked mine up for i'm stoked. Took it home after and popped it on top of a 1x12 'practice rig' and yeah, I see what all the fuss was about.

Funny enough, I just bought one.. spontaneous, but I wanted to experience the love they get (got).. and to compare it to my Thunderfunk. I expect it later this week. I'll post again when i get it.

NBD - 1978 Yamaha BB1200 (and I'm definitely done for the year now!)
Jaybeevee replied to neepheid's topic in Bass Guitars
That reverse P does deliver a lovely tone. The only Bass tone compliment I ever got (sad to say) was from my BB2000 Neck pick up, Tone at around 6. necks on these are solid too.. mine never moves. -
Wow a BB 1200? is it full scale length? it's beautiful
-
If you want a tip for (still cheap but prices rising) budget bass with a 'secret weapon' of a pick up... Peavey T20.. P Bass territory.. but my god for a power house P bass tone.. You wont find a green one though..

A lovely Jazz bass...

I was curious regarding my 1126s, so here you go. I have a pair of H115s also, but have never opened them up

Show us your rig of choice for the weekend ** Basschat edition**
Jaybeevee replied to bassace97's topic in Amps and Cabs
I just picked up 2 TKS H115s as I am so in love with my 1126s.. Way more than i need.. but love is blind. Really great cabs.. these 15s really deliver in spades. -
Good answer... I own a USA JO from 2007, and i haven't owned many Jazz basses (this is my second).. but yeah, i think its killer... I also own a De Gier soulmate (which is almost Gold) which is really why i asked,, i'm really curious about the Bebop. Likely great too..

Which one goes with you to the desert island?

BagEnd do a full range of powered bass Cabs 10’s, 12’s and 15s. Neo drivers also. Sounds like exactly what you’re describing
