Lloyd80 replied to Bassman Sam's topic in General Discussion

I'm not shooting anyone. It was purely describing my experience. The poor customer service and the lack of information about where the goods are coming from. All that was needed was a note on the website or the confirmation order stating that items may be coming from Germany. And an actual response to emails and phone calls. I understand the delay in getting responses due to the current situation. But the lack of communication was extreme in my case. I know others have faired better.

This is the same for BAX. I ordered items over 3 weeks ago. Countless emails and phone calls alas no response. Put a negative review on trustpilot and with 5 mins it gets a response! That response explained the items are coming from germany and that they drive it over themselves. Would have been nice for an email to tell me that! Or for it to be mentioned on their website. 3 days later I recieved a response to the third email I sent them. Then a phone call today explaining that hermes has lost a load of their items and would I be happy to wait for another? Erm no thanks. Refund please. The customer service agent was pretty good. But now I'm still waiting on the refund. It was via my paypal balance so should be be pretty quick. We shall wait and see with baited breath how long it actually takes though!

WTF did I just watch!!!! 😧🤣

A second time would of def made it easier. I did the best on the out of tune singing too. Being a drummer my timing was atrocious 🤣

I was watching YouTube a video popped up on my feed. So I naturally had to go and test myself. https://www.themusiclab.org/quizzes/miq I got 105 overall. Not too bad. What score did you get? PS best listened to with headphones.

Bloody hell! This is dedication !!!! If it's only the distal joint of your fingers collapsing, have you tried tape over that joint alone? It wont stop all movement but should support it somewhat better than those neoprene supports that you linked to. I used to do it for rugby. Plus also having treated many finger injuries sometimes the simplest method works. You may have already tried this though!

Yes, yes and yes! I'm another owner and fan. It's really helped my learning too.

I completely agree !! It was hard not to notice ! In the interest of pure science though!

Dont know if this will help? http://www.shortscalebass.co.uk/short-scale-string-choice/ Also I did find these from ibanez. For the mikro. But might work. They also do a 4 string set. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ibanez-Guitar-Strings-IEBS5CMK-Coated/dp/B06XXNJC49

Haha. I would say I was unaware of GAS...however being an ex drummer I may have been afflicted previously!!! But the joy of a divorce, I have no imposed limits on what I can buy now !! Lol. 🤘

Well, The new toy arrived!!!! I've spent the last hour playing around. Factory reset and firmware updated. All I can say is WOW! Everything I need in one small handy pedal board. Perfect!! Still lots of of effects to go through. But loving the cab and preamp effects are really good. I cant see me changing this anytime soon. And I can see me using this live...well when the world has semblance of normality again ! Thanks for all the advice and tips. It's been really appreciated!!

Mother Russia - Iron maiden.

I dont think there are any uk suppliers. But the best one I could find has the vat included in the price, maybe worth a look ? Its from Poland and shipping is 10. But not sure how much you'll have to pay for customs charges. https://musicsquare.co.uk/220056_One-Control-Blue-360-AIAB-Bass-Preamp-Amp-In-A-Box-bass-guitar-.html

Thanks again gents! Well the 4 I originally listed the Fender was top. But for the price I couldn't justify it. The valeton and sonicake both have flaws in the dirty eq and fuzz area. And the EHX sounds good but it was topped by the fender. However. Since I started this thread, and did loads of research the fender has been supplanted. The zooms are top. Now just to decide between the B1x Four or the B3n! Again thanks for the input and help.
-
That's the valeton I currently have on my ebay watch list!! 😅 I am swaying towards the Zoom B1X four. It seems to do what I want and a lot more without breaking the bank. Does anyone use it for live gigs? Or should I say has anyone used it for live gigs considering the current situation!
-
Thanks Stewblack and the others who have commented. More research needed. But the zoom b1 four is on the list. From what I've seen of it so far it gets cracking reviews! Plus it's a small package that def has everything I'm looking for. Plus it's cheap! Bonus!
