Interesting... I'm pretty sure I recognise the Jazz they're selling from an advert on Basschat earlier in the year.

That meteoric rise in popularity must have been the death knell for PMT.

New album from The Don? Bring it on 😍

Good thing they miked up the bass head though. Everyone knows that's where the tone comes from.

+1 I liked the name so much I had to build myself one! Still brings me joy.

I'm holding out for the Mega Special Discount Sale Plus!

At the risk of opening a can of worms... if I was looking to achieve the same, and focusing on affordability: A Boss LMB3 might be a good place to start for compression and could be picked up for around £60 second-hand Overdrive depends what you're looking for soundwise. A Behringer BDI21 (<£30) will give you a DI and Sansamp tone on a budget, or Joyo make the Tidal Wave (£75 ish), which is a clone of the Sansamp BDDI v2 and includes a mid control. Alternatively, I really like the versatility of the Earthquaker Devices Blumes but it is very different from Sansamp-style overdrive (not especially cheap either).

Sounds like the plot from a John Cusack movie, @pantherairsoft

Great interview, and some seriously tasty tones! There's a clip in the "PBass solo" section which comes from this original clip. I had to dig a bit to find it but here it is:

Let the Great Recalibration commence!

I'd also be willing to take one for the team and buy a vintage Fender at a bargain basement price. For the good of the community.

Is the top left dial marked "Peas", or is that my eyes? I'd love a pedal with Peas written on it.

Using a line selector pedal like a Boss LS2 to boost the OC2 could achieve this with the same number of stomps as just engaging the OC2.

Great pedal! But I agree there’s a lot of knob tweaking to contend with! You’ve inspired me to set aside a bit more time with it. I got stuck in a rut using mainly the Okto side of the pedal as I really like the range of tones I can squeeze out of it. Trying the Nøjs side recently at lower gain settings has made me realise I was probably overdoing it much of the time. Have you tried the internal guitar/bass switch? I set it to Bass when I first got mine but haven’t done any A/B testing yet.

Sounds like a fun project, and makes for some encouraging reading after browsing through the Auditions in Hell thread!

I had the chance to do something quite different last night, and take part in a poetry jam/workshop. This involved writing a short poem (with guidance from an experienced writer), and then covering bass duties in a jam band while everyone took turns to deliver their poems in a spoken-word-over-music format. Great fun!

I bought a strap from Rob and he was great at answering my queries and immediately shipped the item. I was also the lucky recipient of an unwanted USB power supply in return for a donation to the North West Air Ambulance service. Thanks again Rob! Pleasure doing business with you.
