Anyone?!

The bass player is the best musician in Metallica? Er... that's just not true. Hetfield is one of the best singer/songwriters of all time.

Sniff.

Don't gig!

Anyone had experience or uses this pedal? I'm hoping it's an OD Glove but with added 3 band EQ and blend knob. Demo seems promising: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGKIPGyeq9c[/media]

I have given up on JMB - messages never lead anywhere, auditions are always below par and most the people on there have no idea how a band works! Is there a similar site where you can actually meet good musicians?

Wolf Alice are criminally underated.

Extend the hand and get it shot off...

Blanket for your sniffle?

Picato half round strings are the same string. There's an identical thread halfway down the page ya know. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/312574-la-bella-tapewound-string-50s-or-60s-that-is-the-question/page__pid__3381269#entry3381269

My Jazz could knock any P for six. It plays better, it sounds better and is more versatile for different genres.

Don't string them thru body?

Doesn't sound that bad - if one of the big session players did this, words like visionary, in the pocket, soulful and genius would be used.

Is there any low end loss on this thing? I've had EHX pedals in the past which were fine low gain but once you pushed them they seemed to get lost in the mix.

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1507813224' post='3388139'] Cool review! I'd love to try one. I think I read somewhere that it uses the same circuit as the EHX Glove, which is excellent news if true - I used to own a Glove and it sounded wonderful. I only sold it as the lack of clean blend meant I could only use it at low gain settings before losing some low end. That shouldn't be a problem with the Battalion though! [/quote] Same! My experience with the Glove was very similar and I wanted to keep it so much.

Would you say the OD section compares to another EHX overdrive pedal? Or is it more Muff like?

I'm not on any social media so don't have these problems! YouTube is full of kids though?

SIT Silencers or GHS Pressurewounds I would say for something with a little more punch.

Picato half rounds are the same string if you still want to use them.

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1506587112' post='3379680'] Not always IMO. Sometimes a (benevolent) dictatorship accomplishes far more than an ineffective team where nobody takes any responsibility for anything! As ever though, the devil is in the detail and the quality of interpersonal relationships is key. But it [i][b]can[/b][/i] work... [/quote] A band is a team when writing songs. If it's a dictatorship and you're told what to play then what a sh***y band...

I did the originals thing for ten years with various bands and every time (most of) it was on me. The last band was the final straw - I was arranging every rehearsal, booking all the gigs, writing all the music and running all the stuff online! Rest of the band just needed to turn up when due! I quit the band saying you guys couldn't organise a reading club in a library... one month later the band collapsed. Currently bandless but much happier for it. I have no problem helping out but when everything is on my head, as soon as something goes wrong, it's all my fault. A band is a team not a dictatorship.

To be honest, if someone spoke to me like that then I would quit too. Yes he was disorganised but no need to treat him like a piece of crap.

I think most people would agree that Fugazi were a great band?

The Hi Beams I received were the real deal. I would have no worries.
