My Precision has scratchy pots so I'm hoping some contact cleaner should do the trick. Can anyone recommend one? Thanks.

If I'm ever in Milwaukee again, I will give you a shout.

Wow, the mythical Tayste 2000. All we need now is fellow OG, Toasted, and the thread is complete. I'm currently using Pure Nickel strings which are a little brighter than flatwounds but very close.

Has anyone compared the SolidGoldFX Beta to the Germanium version?

I have heard the MojoMojo is similar to the Blueberry and it does have a treble control to brighten things up...

The barstaff, security, sound person, cleaners etc. all get paid so why not the band? F pay to play venues.

Get yourself a new set of strings and I think you'll hear the difference immediately. Here you go: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rotosound-Nickel-Hybrid-Roundwound-Strings/dp/B001PKLKC6/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?crid=AVUNBWXRYGVE&keywords=bass+strings&qid=1700583349&sprefix=bass+strings%2Caps%2C76&sr=8-15

Blends always sound weird to me.

Don't forget Bass Bros just down the road too.

I believe what I'm after is a combination of the Blueberry and Spark Booster. The Blueberry was so close to what I wanted but it was dark and extremely difficult to brighten up or add some clarity. That's much easier on the Spark Booster but I feel that the SB never gets as valve-like has the Blueberry. The breakup sounds more natural too.

I had a CIC Inca Silver Jazz too. Solid bass but way overhyped for what they were. The 40th Anniversary models were(are) superb. I went into purchase what I thought would be a US model or Custom Shop Precision but the Squier was just as well built, played just as nicely and sounded phenomenal.

Desperate to sell. 3 days later... *WITHDRAWN*

When the active circuit dies mid gig and you're checking to see if it's 9v or 18v. 😁

Try the MXR M81. I know exactly where you're coming from.

The Beta seems a little too dark for my liking. I want to take my original signal but add minimal colour to it - just make it more valve like. Has anyone tried the EHX Hot Tubes, Way Huge Pork Loin, Jam Lucy Dreamer or One Control Blackberry?

Best bass I've ever played but now for sale. Okay.

I had a DHA VT1 EQ DI years ago and found the DI was super noisy so sold it. Good pedal otherwise.

Not really after the SVT sound. I'm after something more neutral.

I think I'm also after something that has a mid control. A lot of pedal makers leave that out for some reason.

I would like just one pedal, please.

I run a fairly basic rig to get more of an old school tone. Precision with flats into a Polytune, Spark Booster and then into a MarkBass combo. I also use a Radial DI box. I'm looking for edge of breakup/very low gain valve tones. Is there anything out there that beats the Spark Booster for this? I have tried: Xotic BB Bass Preamp SolidGold Beta Mk II Bearfoot Blueberry Phat Phuk B Way Huge Green Rhino The Spark Booster is the one I've always preferred. I predominantly use it on the 'clean' setting.
