I’ll play around with it cheers. Got mine from here. Should be with me next week

You are right. It has a LPF but doesn’t have a HPF, they put it in the ms-60b which made for bass players. No biggie will and see what happens. I tried the new boss gx-1B in the Roland store in central London. It’s very intuitive to use. They had a mxr phase 90 script modal which was killer.

Appreciate the tips bud. I saw a Harley Benton spaceship 40 on sale for 90. I used pedal playground to do this: Came out a seminar and it had sold. I have room to add a phaser on bottom. I could also get the small ditto to help space also. Your advise is very valuable. I look into the 60 also. I am thinking is very much a to big. I want a pedal like the genzler reQ but much smaller.

A slippery slope is the PG version hahahahahahahahaha. Jack sent me this and its be a god send. i have enough space to add the mxr phaser and the rather wide genzler reQ if i decide to go that direction. I think a HPF is always helpful Oh Yes patch cables, thanks for reminding me.

I thought I replied to you. my bad. As my pedals are now Tc poly tune 3 mini >Empress bass compressor > Genzler 4 on the floor > Mirco POG > Zoom Ms70 CDR+ > EHX Freeze >Ditto x2 (mate i can't believe how the total amount of pedals doesn't hit you until it's close to completion) i was thinking of this https://www.thomann.co.uk/harley_benton_spaceship_power_40.htm What makes me want to slyly vomit is I want to add a phaser pedal ( I learnt i love the phaser effect) and also a EQ with HPF and LPF.

so I went down a rabbit hole. Got my multimeter out and tested the Bart’s and the original pickups. barts are 8.67k (ceramic) and originals are 9.39k(alnico). My squirer pbass is 7.7k (ceramic but not in the league of Bart’s at all) when I got my bass from Bassbros I took it to a local Luthier to look at. He worked or learnt at Monty’s guitars. He told me don’t change the original pickups as they are great sounding. I was after the paul jackson sound so I did lol.

The Bart’s probably did actually as I didn’t cycle or train as much. Never thought of that lol. You are right the omns is only 9.2k (I’ll check what mine is when I get a chance) but how the pickup reacts with the basses wood combo is more important. With chromes it’s extremely dynamic in touch and also where I pluck the string. My original pickups read around 7k. I’m playing through a genzler Magellan 350 with 10” array cab. Style is funk, rnb, fusion jazz and melodic soloing stuff. This bass + Bart’s loves flats and tape wounds. Melodic chord phrasing is dream like. My goal was to get a paul Jackson tone so I feel the 8s will help. I also possibly should get a bass that suits chord melodic soloing playing, seems like that is the direction I’m going. It could also be that the nickel strings I use aren’t complimenting. What I do know is that I like the tone of Bart pickups. Tone all the way off on the p bass isn’t muddy at all. Articulate, creamy highs even when you Dig in. Smooth smooth tone. I do think Bart 8cbp suit rounds.

Hey, I totally forgot about this post. Knee is better now rehab prevented surgery. It was more to do with my adductor. On bart 8CBP. I’m surprised I’ve had them for nearly 2 years. My bass is Asian ash with maple fretboard. The pickups are great l, especially with chrome flats. Smooth, creamy tone. The only way to tame the output and bass is flats. I really like nickel rounds so I’m thinking of letting these go and get the 8s or a different pickup. You thinking of trying Bart’s?

Hey peeps, Looking to pick up a phaser. Wondered if anyone has used both and could compare. Rather big price difference. I first heard Derrick hodge use a phaser (mxr phase 90 variant) which caught my attention. I then heard Jonathan Maron demo the Aguilar grape phaser and was wondering if it was just his amazing playing with the pedal or the pedal itself. cheers

I couldn’t fine any on it also. I’ll keep an eye out. I did like the tone out of it I must say.

Just saw this:
