Hi I will shortly be moving to using iems for gigs. As someone with tinnitus I use ear plugs to prevent any more hearing damage and would like a set of headphones that I can use that will attenuate the sound level of outside sounds to a similar level. Having had a look it looks like drummer headphones is the solution however I see that a lot of these are very bulky, is there anything that is low/low-ish profile that will protect my hearing? Thank you

I couldn't see that a thread has been created for this, looks like a very interesting bass. Medium scale, humbucker in the neck, single coil in the bridge position, looks gorgeous. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Grestch-Electromatic-CVT-Bass-Double-Cut-LRL-Bristol-Fog/79HO?origin=product-ads&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22290702940&gbraid=0AAAAAD_kjLR1Nk-UwpcsIbHeg9fwsf-Mr&gclid=CjwKCAjw3rnCBhBxEiwArN0QE3co07vE79qIfly1XnMv8zcqzQ1OcvWp8yKhQTyojo_K_20krLm8DBoC8fkQAvD_BwE

I will hard pass on any strings that are priced that high, I don't use flats anymore but when I did I wouldn't have paid that.

Check that the pickups are passive before you take out the preamp, they most likely are but would be awful to take out the preamp to find that you needed it after all

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated

So, I am looking at switching as many of my pedals as possible to mini pedals as my pedal board is becoming too big and weighty. I now have my chorus pedal and EQ pedals sorted so am now looking for an overdrive pedal, what is out there that has a small footprint but doesn't lose low end? I would like to keep the cost below £100 but preferably I love a bargain so the more inexpensive the better. I see there are a lot of of mini overdrive pedals out there but they all seem to be made for guitar. Thanks

"Zak made a few mistakes and he has apologised" 🤣 I know they are a professional band but the guy is human like the rest of them, I'm sure the others aren't flawless 100% of the time especially as Roger Daltrey himself has admitted that his hearing has seen better days. Sounds like maybe they have realised that they were being twats and are now looking to do a u turn in the least embarrassing way possible.

I haven't heard them with Pino so I can not offer an informed opinion but doesn't Pino use flatwounds? Surely that has to be the polar opposite of what The Who would want for there sound?

So, I got a set of these in medium scale for my Ibanez AGB200, put the strings on and then noticed some buzz on the D string, had a look and the other strings are fine but the D string taper starts between the nut and the 1st fret, either they have packed a short scale string or that is some seriously shoddy quality control.

Looks good, have you used it?

Am looking at getting a new Chorus pedal and not sure that to get. I have a Behringer Chorus pedal (ultra chorus) but to my ears it sounds like quite a warm chorus and I am after something a bit more shimmery and icy sounding. I like the look of the EHX Clone theory but I am a cheapskate when it comes to pedals when I know that they will only be used for a small handful of songs in my bands setlist so am wondering if there is something that can do the job for less money. I know Joyo have a few chorus pedals but I have found very little online about how they sound on bass Thanks

Cool, how is the clone theory? I love Joy Division and I love Peter Hook's bass tone so have been considering getting a clone theory.

Thanks for the replies, I thought 2 chorus pedals was good, tried an overdrive in front of the chorus pedals, wow!!!! What a great sound!!!
