  1. If it wasn’t for the weight. 🙄
  2. I’ve asked on here once or twice what sort of sounds are folk actually getting out of some of these exotic boards and I know most folk are being creative and doing lots of interesting stuff but I never really get board envy. I’m a simple drive and comp guy and this is reflected in my board and mediocre playing 😀
  3. Cracking unit. I’d describe it as a cross between the TC Spark Boost (4 knob)/original Beta/BassSoulFood.
  4. I don’t play at ear splitting volume or anyhing like that but I do notice the difference with the amp behind me. In one venue we have a sound tech and when I run a cleaner FOH and a dirty amp she always maintains it’s a better bass sound than other bands who play the same room. She’s very conscious of balancing the drums and stage with her foh mix so I know I’m not blasting my amp. I like having the amp behind me and I’ll likely continue to have it as it works for me. I use iems and we don’t have guitar amps on the stage. It’s been experience/experimenting that’s led me to this set up. It works for me.
  5. What?
  6. I use iem’s but still like an amp behind me tickling the back of the legs! If I pop out the iem I get a nice sense of the drums and bass with the foh giving me enough guitar and vocals. I might only pop the iem’s out on a few occasions but it’s nice to have that ‘live’ vibe from amp and drums it’s not super loud just enough to feel it.
  7. Such a wonderful p bass.
  8. He makes these kinds things
  9. I’d just presumed it was MAS Audio. Goes to google Ampeg v9
  10. The 1176 needs a bass demo!
  11. Price includes U.K. shipping. Nabbed a few weeks back as I was very keen to try one. I wanted to try running a compressor in the di out signal path but have decided it’s overkill. Experimentation completed. I’ll add a link as it’s quite a feature set on this guy but will say the extra tone options make it more than just a stand out compressor- using the 2kHz setting with my P bass brings in a fantastic upper mid sizzle just where it matters and can really enhance the bass playing live. I love a little bit of 2kHz. https://empresseffects.com/products/bass-compressor While this is a killer unit I’m sticking with my hyper luminal as I use the different compressor ’modes’ with different basses and have a setting preset for each bass for during my set - it’s just more practical for my needs to stick with what I have. And finally a killer review from Hondo!
  12. Very underrated chorus. Easy to recall presets. Had one in an 80’s band for ‘that’ sound.
  13. From JHS Colourbox v.2 VERSION HISTORY V1 = Smaller enclosure; no “shift” EQ knobs; seven knobs total. V2 = Larger enclosure; ten knobs total; added Hi/Lo Toggle; passes phantom power. Output transformer addition. The most significant improvements are: Addition of an Output transformer Safely Passes 48V Phantom Power EQ Shift Knobs for precision EQ control Hi/Lo Switch for ultra clean headroom 100% available clean signal even on acoustic guitar Silent switching, aka no "switch-pop" Runs on standard 9V DC Neg power
  14. Two transformers - so you’re getting one always in the signal path and a second on the di. Version one always had the transformer in the circuit, v2 added another to the di out👍🏼
  15. Funk is a keeper for me. Advert updated.
  16. I’ve a couple of those LBA transformers hiding under my board and they do add a certain quality to the signal path.
  17. Bit off topic but I’ve been looking at camera bags/backpacks which have the compartments as a gig bag stuff carrier solution… not sure what would accommodate a mic stand too but fishing gear is a good start.
  18. Edit Nux ones are available locally. I’ll have a look at the link. I’ve no real need to have wireless so I might just stick with the cables. They’re. Very pretty colour!
  19. The link I meant to post… https://www.talkbass.com/threads/bill-lawrence-p-46-pickup-mini-review-best-p-pickup-ive-ever-tried.528005/
  20. Sold pending… me getting my bank details correct😀
