Humour isn't your strong side, is it?

Your mom!

Seems a lot of people are really sensitive about this topic. Guess there are a lot of people who got no friends, and it is understandable that it hurts to think about that fact, and that being confronted with this is making you upset. To those I'd just like to say: Light up! Your suffering is only temporary. We are all going to die eventually.

Just go to your local super market and get a discarded cardboard box, punch a couple of holes in it, and with the help of some Gaffa tape, glue and scissors you'll have an amp cabinet in no time!

My favorite bass is my best friend!

Just about everything that involves Justin Chancellor playing (Tool). And this, from 1968, by the Danish band Savage Rose (Jens Rugsted on bass):

Usually I really don't like the look of flamed wood, or blue finish for that matter, and not particularly fond of Maple fretboards either, but on that bass for some reason it genuinely look no short of absolutely stunning. Beautiful bass!

Ah, right, my bad. It even says in the OP, and yes, I did in fact read it, yet still managed to totally misunderstand OP's intention. *DOH!* For some reason I just had got the idea that the Helix has 1 stereo jack socket effects loop, and that the Palmer preamp would be connected through it's regular respective input and output mono jack sockets, and that this what OP wanted to do.

What he meant was, have you tried swapping the two split mono jack plugs around on the Palmer preamp, that is trying both plugs respectively in both the input and output of your external preamp?

I once owned the 1968 version of the 60W B-15S, with solid state rectifier, I believe. Really regret being stupid enough to sell it, it sounded absolutely amazing. Maybe worth considering for the extra wattage.

Wrong thread! This should be in the sub-short scale thread!

You would need a pedal with mixing capabilities like the Boss LS-2 I suggested, for mixing the two parallel signal paths instead of just spitting them for it to work properly, the LS-2 would both spilt, mixing them at whatever ratio you see fit and recombine them all in one single standard Boss pedal sized pedal, and be buffered, avoiding potential impedance issues of simple passive signal splitting. The LS-2 basically being a foot switchable 2 channel/effects loops pedal size active mixer.

Jaco only needed 4 strings.

You should run the 2 B1on pedals through a Boss LS-2 or similar so you'll achieve parallel effect signal patch blending capabilities, or a global clean blend when one of the units is bypassed. It really does add an extra dimension to your tone, doesn't it? But without muddying things up. And yes, to me it sounds as great as any reverb effect, not 2nd grade quality in any possible way. I do have some additional more lush reverb patches, an extremely lush reverb patch that is used for a pad effect with volume swell ins, using the build in expression pedal on my B1Xon assigned to the patch input volume (though I suppose you could use the Slow effect for a similar automatic volume swells effect), and I I got a great bass wah pedal patch as well, but again that is utilizing the build in expression pedal, though you might be able to use it by dialing in the Resonance parameter (which I have set to 0 in order make it exclusively expression pedal controlled like a regular Wah pedal) instead, to make it envelope controlled instead. I'll have a look at the parameter settings later and post them.

I agree 2 8 Ohm cabs will move more air, plus you the amp will actually operate at almost double power at the 4 Ohm it is rated at, and that the 2 8 Ohm cabs equals to. Get an additional 8 Ohm cab, that is my advice. Will be louder than a 500W amp also rated at 4 Ohm though that single 8 Ohm cab you got now.
