  1. I think you should make it more clear in the topic subject that this supersale isn't real... 🙃
  2. Check out some videos that teach you how to read/write proper drum notation using simple rhythms. I got my "mental grid" through that!
  3. I must try this. I bought an absolutely non-budget Nordymute a couple years ago and unless I barely put it on, just gently touching the strings with the end, it's too muted and useless for me. Putting it on just barely adds the risk that I knock it off with my hand. I enjoyed sponges and packing materials more than the fancy purpose-made stuff.
  4. Shameless plug, here on the market I am selling a cheap DIY Mastotron clone I made that has a switch for warming up / bassing up the tone. 😁 Not exactly a blend, but it's the next best thing for bass. But I don't know if it's "creamy" though, or even if we consider the same things "creamy" 😉
  5. Haha already got on the wall of shame, and I still want a Wampler Ego 76 at some point... 😁 can live without... yet...
  6. Like others were saying... it's a great thing this happened right at the beginning. If they're this kind of people, the same or worse would have eventually happened anyway. These are usually not one-off mistakes, these are clear signs of questionable personalities.
  7. If it works for YOU, then it's a great method! But you don't need to find a "bassless" version on youtube any more. There are many simple services like Moises that can just mute the bass track for you on any mp3 you upload. Some DAWs and their plugins are catching up to this as well, but I just use Moises, so simple, AND you can loop specific parts natively that you want to practice! It allows you to change the tempo, tell you AND change the key, show you the chords, etc. Just try it 😁 Edit: it works both as an app and in your browser on a computer
  8. Lol I was eyeballing this lego bass a couple weeks ago on the marketplace, and now it's on a stage... 😂
  9. FáZZ - DIY prototype. It is based on the ZVEX Mastotron, using a Fuzzdog PCB. The RE/PUSH impedance control is pretty cool, you can adjust the breakup to the hotness of yours pickups. It lights up under UV light! (can add photos when it gets dark tonight) The LED is matching pink! BUDGET PRICE - This is a prototype as it's my first attempt covering a pedal faceplate with epoxy. Unfortunately it's SPONGY, the epoxy never hardened fully. It's not jelly-like, it's pretty solid, but you can mark it with your nail if you press hard - so this is something to consider. I will also add a short recording shortly.
  10. Just a slight bump, I really don't want to start advertising this on ebay/reverb 😅 Happy to answer any questions of course.
  11. This doesn't seem like a prank to me, more like a genuine product management messup, which he handles admirably transparently. People were saying "duh this is just so Josh can sell 7500 pedals in minutes"... Well I bought mine in the previous batch where all this drama was not announced yet, and guess what, it was sold out in about 15 minutes. 😁 I was glad I set up an alarm for the restock timer at 10pm BST. They were out of stock by the time I paid for my shopping cart and refreshed the main page.
  12. I don't like to distort bass, but with my guitar, it's one of the best damn distortions I have ever heard. Nice controllable breakup on lower levels, but insane crunchiness dialed to 10. It makes me wish I could play the guitar... 😁 That rarely happens! I downgraded my Notaklon to a clean boost that comes after the Dumble, but I might put it before, on paper it makes more sense. The Dumble distortion is just SO much better to my ears. And with bass, through the clean channel, it just made the sound better, more exciting, like saturating it. I am not familiar with the whole oldschool Dumble stuff to be honest, I don't know how accurate it is, but I LIKE it! Makes me turn the always-on Sansamp off, so I can enjoy the pure Dumble sound more. I'll still play around with the dist channel on a very low setting on bass, to see if I can get it more sansamp-y. But there's definitely less froom for EQ here than on a Sansamp. Anyways, this will live on my board, always on in some form!
  13. I just bought the JHS flight delay on a sale from Andertons and LOVING it. It's still on offer today! edit: sorry just realising you said "budget", well I guess £200 on sale is not that, but I think still worth considering. Note that the reverse has a few pops and clicks in it which is considered normal, it's a... feature of the original circuit. But it sound pretty amazing otherwise.
  14. Well this didn't take too long. I entered the game on the 16th of April. And now...
  15. So who's coming this Sunday? 🙂
  16. If filing is needed - I have done it before, not an enjoyable job, but takes a couple minutes and tries. And I had to file a brand new EMG, not a £16 one, so I had very sweaty hands... 😁
  17. Then that must be definitely lighter than my 8.4lb/3.8kg one. Mine is the blue colour variation of this same bass on this very page, and the clear difference is the ash VS alder body.
  18. If I'd ever get a new bass just for the purpose of tinkering, I'd still go HB! My current tinker bass is the Ibanez Talman TMB30 shortie, that was like £170 back when I got it. I think it's £200-ish nowdays. And I had some quality issues with it, like a seriously bent tuner, but I did not mind as I planned to put on black schallers from the 1st moment 😁 I think the HB out of box quality is higher at this point than even a similarly priced Ibanez.
  19. Here's a great collab from some of the incredible musicians g.t. stole from:
  20. My Lionel is ash body, 3.8kg / 8.4 lbs. Not the lightest, but fine for me. Could be lighter, yeah...
  21. It's still a big lottery for £250 when you can get 2 proper Harley Bentons for that price...
  22. Good stuff. I wish I was sent a Flight Delay!
  23. I mean I sort of get @ordep's point too. But if it's on a board... and you can step on it... (like on an actual switch, I know it's possible to just step on anything 😀)... How about the switchless, always on stuff on boards? They're not really pedals, they're just boxes after all 🙃
  24. I must be the luckiest person alive, but I got the same delivery lady for Evri (from Hermes days) and the same delivery guy from DHL all the time for years, all of them do a very solid job. Never had anything lost/delayed by them.
