Playing thru a PA I use mine mostly as a DI (in the "off" setting) and sometimes as a boost - playing into a gk500 head and ampeg 410 speaker the boost really warms things up. The scrambler adds a wee bit of Grrrr sometimes but I don't use it as proper distortion. I think this is a really useful pedal and sounds great when engaged.

I go for "not too boomy, not too pingy" - gives me a wide range to shoot for and always seems sit fine in the mix...

My Roto Tru Bass strings on my Eko acoustic bass are the originals and are still good to go. I bought the bass in 1979? so 34 yrs old or so without use of freezer.
34 year old strings? You are my new hero 😁
Edit - now looking at the date of your original post - 41 year old strings! I can only dream... 😃

Here is my trio...
The one on the right has been with me for about 30 years, it's a Pretender made by a Northern Ireland luthier in 1983 - slim line jazz body, esp neck and emg pickups, plays & sounds great. It saw most of its action back in the punk band days, when it used to bounce off my knee due to an extra long strap, and seems to have been dropped a few times along the way. Its gets the odd run out but it mostly just provides mojo on the wall these days.
The one on the left was a wedding present from the current Mrs &bass, so has been in my hands for about 18 years. 1994 2eq stingray, sounds great and will probably always be my favourite.
The middle one is brand new to me, a 2010 American Standard. I really like olympic white & maple and this showed up for sale right after I had offloaded a Stingray 5, so obviously was meant to be!
Just need some gigs now....

Would you consider EB MM 5 in a swap for this?

Is this still up for grabs, and would you be interested in a swap for a MM Stingray 5?
Gig Bags/Boxes what do you use? (not for basses)

I'm looking for something to let me backpack a load of leads, mini bass stand, mic stand, small head and a small-ish pedal setup - then I'll have one hand for bass case and one hand for 210 cab - so I can live the "in in one" dream. That fishing rod bag looks interesting. How did it work out for you? Cheers!
