I was in a meeting and I saw him walking out the door bass in hand. Ran out to shake his hand. He was really nice.

He is playing with Judith Owen and was in the BBC in Glasgow.

He was a lovely bloke. Totally over it!

[quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1423387924' post='2684102'] I have a Providence Dual Bass Station, which I run with two basses, and it is a terrific piece of kit. It's 24 volt operation, so there's tons of headroom, 3 band eq with sweepable mids, mute, and tuner out. I much prefer it to the Tonebone I used to have, which I felt always sucked some tone out of the bass. [/quote] I'm playing in the states in a couple of months, I'm going to try and pick one of these up.

Yamaha BB 1100s Bass Guitar, Made in Japan 1984, natural. Active electronics 3 band EQ. Was looking for one of these for ages and it doesn't disappoint fantastic PJ bass. Amazing build quality, sounds tremendous active and passive. Better quality than basses that cost considerably more. A classic of the future! I'm only selling because I have too many basses. Bass is in great condition I've added some pics some wear and tear but generally immaculate for a bass of this vintage. Tradewise I'm looking for a two channel pre and some cash! Will post at buyers expense.

Here is my recently purchased 86 MIJ Fender Jazz Fretless. Great bass, looks and sounds tremendous. I am just not getting on with the unlined neck unfortunately. Fingerboard is incredible nick, hardly used, a couple of dings here and there I'll provide photos if required. The hardware is a little tarnished but looks and plays great. Had it set up recently and it's awesome! Trades I'd consider are a lined fretless if it was white! But I am looking for a 2 channel preamp like an EBS Microbass II or Radial bassbone V2 plus some cash. Plus P&P [sharedmedia=core:attachments:181840] [sharedmedia=core:attachments:181839] [sharedmedia=core:attachments:181838] [sharedmedia=core:attachments:181793]

Cheers Ratman thanks for the reply, the reason a pedal option to drive the gain would be good is my 'clean' bass which is active has a considerably stronger signal than my 'distorted' bass which is passive. Hitting the button, allowed me to set the gain so the volumes were quite similar. But I couldn't be bothered walking over to my amp so I just used a pedal to add grit. I'm looking at a 2 channel pre at the moment so I can have seperate EQs and levels and I also need an option for the upright. So that might be the thing to allow me to have the gain always on.
-
Cheers lads I need to spend a bit more time messing around with the amp. But my gear is in the studio and time is precious so you end up going with the imperfect solution! I'll defintely turn the gain on tho!
-
One of my main issues is the bass I want for overdriven sounds is passive and the bass I have for clean sounds is active though I have just bought a jazz. I found a real volume boost when switching to the 'clean' bass so I just stopped using the gain channel and used pedals for a bit of overdrive and to equalise the volume. Just switched settings when I changed bass but I actually like the sound from the Streamliner. If I could set the amp so it's still clean but on the cusp of distorting (as discrete suggested) on my 'overdriven' bass and use a pedal to drive the amp. And if I could roll back the volume on my active clean bass to stop it distorting but keep a consistent volume that would be ideal.
-
I'm feeling pretty dumb here. So on the streamliner if I set the gain and volume to a setting I like and the master to whatever. No matter how strong the signal going in, if it's reached peak volume it won't get any louder. But it will be more overdriven if the signal is stronger. So for instance, my stingray runs way hotter than my Rickie so I could just roll back the volume on my Stingray (it seems so simple). I've been thinking of all manner of convoluted solutions.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1423931117' post='2690511'] I do just this... set everything up so that the gain is pushed over the edge when you stomp on the pedal. I was using an M80 which has a separate disto channel, but a BDI-21 pushes it just as well and is a lot cheaper, too. [/quote] Cheers discrete do you have the gain switch on with a clean tone and then the pedal drives the amp? I'm a bit hopeless when it comes to this stuff. I don't want to increase the volume. So would I increase the gain and decrease the volume on the pedal and that would do the trick?
