Hello. Does the Anagram have a pitch shifter that gives you an octave up option? I need to achieve a kind of a Royal Blood sound but I couldn’t find any infos. Thanks for the help

It’s a T- Rex ToneTrunk 56 😉 in the last years I changed a lot of configuration and the points for cable ties always come handy.

Hello! Here’s my pedalboard. I play in a lot of festivals with multiple bands per stage and normally, musicians have to be ready to play in zero time. Since I was always struggling with monitoring, I made a box that goes under the pedalboard that feeds my in ear monitoring system (X Vive PX System) and for the DI out. Works great and I just have to unplug 4 cables and I’m fliyng out of the stage. In the next weeks will be added an Arkham Oracle Bass Preamp

Thanks guys. It’s good to know that this isn’t paranoia. it seems that I’m not the only one. have a great night

No, I just have the 5 string. The B string on Stingray sounds good 😉

Thanks for all your feedback guys! They are in fact fantastic basses with an amazing build quality. Honestly, the 17,5mm doesn’t bother me at all. I think that how it sits in the mix is the key here. To be more specific, IMO the midrange is too harsh comparing with the P. The P is rounder and sits well in almost every genre. Might be my error but the Stingray don’t. My tone preferences shifted from modern sounding basses to a more vintage vibe. P with rounds and flats, a J with rounds but in the last months I’m really digging more a Jazz on steroids thing like an F bass, Xotic or a Elrick NJS. I don’t know but might be a new direction

It seems we are on the same page here. one thing I really miss when I play a Stingray is the tone control. I use it a lot and the treble knob isn’t the same thing

Thanks for the reply Neepheid! I honestly think that this it’s not the case here. The other bass players that used my bass was on my setup and it wasn’t a “better or worse” thing. I do agree that it’s probably my mind is tricking me and as you said, taste changes.

Hello basschatters! first of all sorry for my english, it’s not my main language. When I started playing the bass, I was a huge Flea fan and of course I wanted that sound. Long story short, I got a Stingray and I was a happy chap for about 15 years… Then, when I was being hired for sessions and tours, my sound preference shifted to a more Fender thing (J and P basses). The sound guys and the producers wanted that sound so a P was becoming my main bass. After a while, I sold the Stingray because it was always sitting home without use. Funny thing is that I always missed that sound but being reasonable, that bass wouldn’t fit on the projects that I was working on. The last Christmas I was really decided to buy a new Stingray because everytime I heard a Stingray I was like “man! i have to buy one for me and keep it!” Well I did! I bought myself a new one, with the color that I always wanted. Just beautiful! Guess what… I don’t use it! Everytime I pickup a P, I really enjoy playing because it’s a really dinamic instrument and I love the way it sits on the mix. As you can tell, when I play the Stingray it lacks something. When it’s in my hands just doesn’t sound good to me. When someone picks up my bass and play it, I always think “wait! This bass sound cool” I was wondering if I’m alone in this situation. have a great day

Hello guys. Daniele from Jacaranda Guitars made another one and it’s for sale. https://www.instagram.com/p/DDLFGM6u2-c/?igsh=OGd0YWg5YnFka2F3 grab it before it goes away! I know him and he is the coolest guy ever. Awesome luthier with great attention for detail. have a nice sunday

Thanks guys!

Thanks for the reply! I thought that I had a “complicated” setup… 😂 4 preamps in a pedalboard, wow! Thanks for the advice ps: it would be cool to see your pedalboard 😉

Hello guys, this is my pedalboard and I'm fairly happy with the sound possibilities that I have. IMG_3325.heic I am a session musician and 90% of the gigs, I use In Ear monitoring without an amp. The thing is that I have to play a LOT of genres and for some kinds of music something is missing... the "amp sound". Doing some research I found the Origin Effects Bass Rig Super Vintage (the Ampeg clone) and the thing might be the right tool for what I need. So, the question is: what if I let the Mesa (it's a always on type of pedal) for the main EQ and after that I use the Origin for amp and speaker simulation? Is it redundant? Just to explain the other EQ pedal in my board, I use it only for matching the volume of my basses and more or less like an onboard pre (when I need some equing like more low end or scooped sound). Thanks for the help and sorry for the English, obviously, it's not my main language.

Have you opened the amp and cleaned the fan? My old Puma 1000 had a fan that was very similar to a PC fan. I’d say that this is the first thing to do.
