    I really like the Electro Harmonix 12AX7EH tube.

     

    Use it in all my tube units.

     

    The cheap Chinese ones that most cheaper tube units comes with from stock tends to sound thin, shrill and fizzy.

     

    Same here, I have them in my 1000w Terror amp and they are spot on.

  2. Played a club we didn’t realise was a front for the local Tories. Full on entitled tossers who were well pi55ed. Two threatened our lead singer at the break. Our encore that night was Billy Bragg’s which side are you on? We haven’t been back………..

    Best thing is to take your main bass once a year to someone you can trust who will give it a set up, check all parts etc. And won't do unnecessary work just because you've asked about it or because it gets them more cash. 

     

    Of course the more you play the same bass, the humidity, how you store it, etc. Means you may need it checking out more or less often.

    I do my own set ups. It has never needed more than a tweak of the truss rod in ten years but I am careful how they are stored.

  4. Stiff Little Fingers in Brum. They still have it and then some. ‘Kin brilliant night. Support was Slim Jim Phantom Trio with ex stray cats drummer, they were not the best, technically tight but no energy for nearly all the set. They did one upbeat number and everyone was up for it, then back to the dirge. Shame.

  5. Boss GX100 has been an utter revelation for me this last year. I have now mothballed my pedal board and just use the GX100. So flexible and easy to use. Loads of the guitar pedals sound great on bass as you would expect, and there are bespoke bass effects as well. Chuck in the modelling options and it’s a bargain imho.

    According to quite a few people none of this countries problems are due to brexit. None at all, not one, not even a minor inconvenience. 

    Maybe brexit could have been a success but due to being implemented by clowns, it's a car crash.

    Brexit has been a massive success - for those who planned and orchestrated it, they have made billions and don’t give a damn about ordinary people.

    This doesn't have an Xlr input for a mic, though, so could only be used as an insert at the console. It might be difficult to use the stomp-switch in that case. There are vocal pedals for this use, though, that allow the singer to control the Fx him/her self. Look at the TC Helicon 'Critical Mass', for instance, for doubling up the vocals.

    Nah, just use one of these: https://www.americanmusical.com/audio-technica-cp8201-mic-impedance-matching-transformer/p/AUD-CP8201. Being doing it for ages and works a treat. You can use it for any pedal and get some proper weird effects should you desire.
