  1. It depends how it stacks up against other boutique pres. Nobles are crazy expensive, Caveman too. Origin Effects are less expensive at around £550, as is the Jad Freer (IIRC), which, given the similar pedal board nature of the Walrus, I think is where it should be pitched. For my own use, £250-£300 is going to be my top end and there are plenty of offerings up to that figure for preamps that do what I need/want.
  2. I watched one of the videos and due to the lack of a side by side comparison (with and without the Walrus), it's hard to say if it's really enhancing the sound that much (away from the extreme settings) than my current, much more affordable pre amps do already (Tech21 & Sadowsky). I know it's very easy and typical for us to diss a new product, but I really wanted to be blown away
  3. Crazy money IMO
  4. Sunday week. I’m not sure about an afternoon gig that starts at 4:00, kinda feels like the dead zone between a midday and evening gig, we’ll see I guess.

    I know she had been very unwell, but this is still very sad news. 😢
  7. Dallas 1 PM - Saxon
  8. No one is, it’s a personal opinion. Some may share your POV but plenty won’t too. Perfect, that’s the point, you’re not supposed to be trying to please anyone else but you.
  9. Repair, it doesn’t work. Fill your boots.
  10. Gallows Pole - LZ
  11. To be fair, the transparent ones do have a silvery aspect to them, when not being worn, you should be fine. I had no colour choice with my Elacins and, whilst not NHS beige, they do lean in that direction.
  12. ^^^^This, therefore, go white, silver or yellow.
  13. 👏👏👏
  14. One jB per bean, but they work on the same principle as dBs, so you’d need 3 for double attenuation
  15. Cocktails for Two - Spike Jones
  16. Plus the weight of the rope to stop them floating away . Those really are light and I thought my other basses were light at 3.2kg or thereabouts.
  17. First We Take Manhattan - Leonard Cohen
  18. I own a Rob Allen and took it to a bass bash, where Jabba had some of his creations. They were at least on a par with Mr Allen’s work, I was really impressed.
  19. … and hopeless GAS/new gear addiction.
  20. I use the G quite a lot in my band, but that’s down to the genre (Mod, Northern Soul, etc) and the original recordings use that part of the neck quite a bit it seems (early systems being less able in the low hz dept). However, I reckon I could go a gauge heavier on the G, just for a more even tone (I already use 45-100 to try & achieve that).
  21. I don’t know if mine is typical, but it weighs in at 3.7kgs. Not heavy by my standards, but still my heaviest bass, despite being the shortest.
