  1. Is it the actual weight of the bass or a neck dive issue? If the latter, try fitting lightweight Hipshots, or moving the strap buttons. If it is a weight issue then other than wide straps (my preferred, personal option) you could look at Mono straps or Comfort Strapp; I've tried both and didn't get on with them but many others swear by them.

  2. Tonight is my first outing with Rethink Floyd http://rethinkfloyd.co.uk who I joined just a few months ago (replacing their original bass player/lead vocalist). I've never really fronted a band all on my own before and singing for nigh on 2 hours is a bit daunting, especially when you include the screaming bits from The Wall. Fortunately the keyboard player is a great singer (what do they need me for I hear you say? It's a vibe thing apparently) so if I blow my voice out too early she can cover for me. I'll be taking my recently acquired Rob Allen MB-2 and Phil Jones Bass Buddy for their debut too. I don't think they're as trepidatious as I am ;)

  3. I've been using the EBS Unichorus for years, also has a flange and pitch modulation setting; a quality piece of kit. However, your own ears will be the best judge.

  4. Bought Brian's Phil Jones Bass Buddy after I posted in items wanted for one. Agreed the sale Tuesday afternoon, it arrived this afternoon. No fuss, no muss, a deal as smooth as silk. A top BCer :)

    Ooh shiny, shiny

  5. Very true about about the compartment cover, I just Super Glued my cover back together yesterday (I normally use mains power it but didn't want to take my whole pedal board with me). Good bit of kit, completely transparent (to my ears at least) until you add EQ, level or effect.

    FWIW. La Bellas are sticky out of the packet. Bear with them and they smooth out wonderfully.
    [/quote]I found the La Bellas on my fretless SUB really sticky on my plucking hand once fitted, but recently I've not noticed it at all so this makes complete sense.

    The NIN cover in the OP sounds great, nice work.

  7. I think it looks really good and look forward to a review if you've a mind to do one.

    There's something very Yamaha about that
    [/quote]Yeah I'm seeing that too, the upper horn has an RBX look about it.
