Hotone Thunder Bass
If you want to spend a bit more, what about an Ashdown LB-15.

Maybe?
I would say that it really depends on what you want to do with it.
Will you be wanting to use the amp/pre-amp section or just the effects?
If it's just the effects you're after, then look at the HX FX.

Flea
Billy Sheehan
Chris Squire
As has been said by quite a few people previously, they are all great bassist, Billy Sheehan comes across as a really nice bloke, but I just don't connect with their recorded output.

In the past a band I played in got around the problem of having a guitarist who thought he could be multiple bands by booking gigs for every Friday and Saturday as far into the future as possible. When his other bands realised that he wouldn't be available to play for them for the next 3-4 months they quickly dispensed with his services.
Spoke to the guitarist today, he is not a happy bunny...

The gig itself was OK, loads of mmistakes, but seemed to go down well, however, we found out that the singer is in another band, which takes his count up to three bands and a solo, singer/songwriter/cover act around the local pub circuit. Our guitarist is less than happy, and we ended up having a band discussion prior to the gig, but he's a singer, therefore he's an egotistical, self-centred narcissist.

No, I can't afford another Ric (as much as I wants to, precious)

It's a sad state of affairs when a band's audience is prepared to pay £10 for a T-shirt which will probably have at least a 100% mark up, but won't pay the same for an album on CD which is barely breaking even on pressing costs only.
But unfortunately, that's the state we find ourselves in.

It's a real shame to hear the news about Justin, Parkinsons is a horrible disease.

We had some printed up by Shirty Something, great people to deal with. We had a simple logo screen printed on M to XL shirts, which worked out at around £6 per shirt IIRC.
One thing about the above design, is that it may be a bit too complex for a traditional screen print, but there is a "direct to garment" option, which is a bit more expensive.
Make sure that you're asking for screen printing, as a lot of places will offer vinyl printing, which is a lot less forgiving, less flexible and will crack.

I went to see Geddy on the book tour in Glasgow, it was really good, but watching him & Lerxst chatting puts a whole different aspect on things. A very cool watch.

Should I get a HX Stomp?
in Effects
Posted
I was considering getting a HX Stomp a while ago, but always felt that it was a bit too much for what I would really use, but also that it only has 3 footswitches, which would make it a bit limited for live use.
I bought a POD Go instead, most of the functionality, most of the amp/cab/effect models, plenty of footswitches. Yes, it is "compromised" in comparison with Helix/HX, but it is an ideal bass player's tool IMO.
Definitely worth considering.
