Any time I see or hear the name "Gary Tibbs" I mentally add "and yours truly".
Adam himself a good bass player.
wrote most of the bass lines, listen to the demo tracks when him and Marco where writing the songs, Adam on bass, marco guitar snd a drum machine .-

It’s all me, me, me with these guitarists😀
Welcome to our world where the likes if Helix stomp etc only give token updates to bass, (although i love my stomp)

Bit pricey but I am interested in this, either getting a Brand new mini amp rig Ashdown Studio type or might go for this. See how the price drops more real life reviews

Well I really didn't need another bass, I think having 7 after only playing for 12 months is probably a sign that I have fallen victim to GAS, but as a huge Guy Pratt fan I couldn't resist any longer and I have no regrets.
There are lots of reviews saying how good, and what great value these basses are and I cant argue with any of them. Even with my limited experience, and even more limited ability I can say it is an absolute joy to play and the finish and the overall quality far exceed the what I expected at this price.
Nice bass. What’s the Ashdown amp like, fancy one of those myself

Are you really sure it's only about the tone?
I honestly never looked just listened, then i read the comments about cheeks and re watched.
seriously great Tone though!

Some serious bass tone here, honest its all about that tone. (No sarcasm at all)

Anything by jam pedals for bass all good, all have blend control and extra gain stage. I have a Lucy daydreamer get all the sounds you want out of that. Also love my littler surfing bear bass drive, no blend but keeps all the low end up to really high gain, and then it doesn’t lose much low end.

I had a Le bass and replaced it with the Revolt. Both are great would say they are different rather than one is better than the other.
I do miss the hot/cold fusion in the Le Bass, I used to get a great hot tube amp grind in hot fusion which I can’t get from the Revolt.
channel A on the Revolt is revoiced (Ampeg style) and is better than the Le Bass channel A, but it is very cleanChannel B (Marshall super bass) is really good as well. Channel c is great fun and super heavy aggressive but not really used by me except for a bit of fun.
it’s a shame you cannot blend A with C as the channel C blend is just dry bass ( which is fine) and I wish they had kept the Fusion option as I do miss that.
Overall Revolt is slightly better sounding on all 3 channels, but the Le Bass was more flexible for a more bespoke sound.You won’t go Wrong with the Revolt, it’s straight out of the box everything at 12 sounds are all great and it won’t disappoint, but if you really miss the Le Bass features like Fusion you may want to look for one second hand.

Dry recording (no pedal):
Spark / Mode "Clean" / Gain 100%:
MojoMojo / Drive 0%:
MojoMojo / Drive 50%:
MojoMojo / Drive 100%:
Spark at 100% and Mojo at 50% both sound great, mojo at 25-30% i reckon would sound the best

I owned a Battalion once, nice little prdal as a low mid budget pedal. Get nice tone from it. The drive is an acquired taste its harsh but with blend dualled back can get some subtle grit. Compressor ok will do a job if you just want some light always on compressor. Had some amps with built in compressor as well and they i would say are the same just ok.Think if you really want good compression with more defined dynamics even in pedal form you wont get it in a preamp, be better with a keeley bass or Seymour duncan bass compressor, both under £200.
The MXR M80 i would say is better than the battalion but its a bit more money and no compressor.
if you have a larger budget The Two notes revolt bass is very underrated, real tube built in so has more natural compression & Dynamics on channel A & B but no dedicated compressor.

Still one of my favourite basslines. He was excellent at glastonbury that year too
Good this, Never heard this before today

Two notes le bass or revolt bass
real tube built in multi channels fraction of the cost from well known brand. Cannot recommend either enough if you want that real tube bass magic

The Superlights do sound a little different - snappier, faster response, more controlled low end. The differences aren't big. Nothing that the EQ cannot change.
As for the pickups - I change almost all of mine anyway. Any J style gets EMGs, PJ get EMG PJX, and P stays passive with an Aguilar.
I have the original EMG J set in my Superlight, with an EMG EQ system as well. I love it.
I’m thinking of switching to sone EMG pick ups on my ELECTRA II TT4.
What would you suggest/any advice on what to get as they have so many sets on EMG website. -

Nice this arrived from Andertons today, only had it a couple of hours and enjoying playing with it.
Its lovely cute looking artwork as-well.
Massive range and head room, slight boost up to 9 o clock 9-12 subtle warm break up after 12 into heavier but responsive overdrive after 3 starts getting more full on distortion.
It seems dynamic response is the main selling point on this pedal and its superb at that, when dig in.
need to find the sweet spot for the tone. You do start to loose a little low end at higher gain and higher tone, but not massively and all bass distortions do that. Tone seems more boost only so seems to suit being off altogether or up to 11oclock. For me anyway.
highly recommended this for anyone one wanting a highly responsive dig in low grit but it also can work hard.

Two notes Revolt, channel A clean channel, real Tube inside, gain master Treble and bass sounds so nice everything at 12 or 12-2pm (other settings available)
bonus if 2 extra channels should you need an alternative channel B Marshall super base style, channel C sone crazy modern metal overdrive.
But worth it for the Clean for a Noble esq sound Gain at 12-2 bass at 2
Treble 11-12. I get a better Noble sound than the Helix Noble patch, the Tube gives you that warm dynamic.
