  1. Dunlops for me.

    I bought some the last time I bought a new bass.

    I dropped my old bass right on my big toe whilst the new bass and straplocks where in transit. Like a premonition it was. :)

    dunlops are a real pain in the arse to get on your strap - but once they're on - they're great - especially if you have more than one bass and only one strap like me. Off and on again in 10 seconds.

  2. I'm strangely attracted to the DHA, It looks like it's been put together in a potting shed and painted by someone who's peaking on LSD.

    Anyone got one?

    I'm finding it harder make my mind up than I usually do - most of the reviews I've read seem to make a point of making compressors' transparency sound like a good thing.

  3. Hiya fellas,

    I was wondering if any of you own / have owned a T-Rex Squeezer?

    I'm thinking about getting one. I don't use any pedals or effects or anything at the moment. I've got a precision special (with the extra J pickup) and a solid state Ampeg combo (b3158).

    I'm looking to do two things - compress my sound a bit - I play in a 3 piece and sometimes I think my sound could do with being a bit more consistent.

    I also want to add some tube colouration. I'd like my Ampeg to sound a bit more SVT like. It's a good amp - but sometimes a little dry.

    I'm a bit concerned about this pedal being a bit hissy. I don't like hiss :)

    this man [url="http://www.ev-b.com/compressors.html"]http://www.ev-b.com/compressors.html[/url] here hates them because of it.

    Anyone got any alternatives?

    All the best

    John
