Gank Bass

Nothing wrong with taking the odd freebie if its going to pay dividends down the line, we once took a freebie playing for Katie price just because we wanted to see how big they are irl 🫡

I suggested they change their name to Metallica instead

Could you talk me through the Morningstar? I'm seeing them more and more these days but I'm totally uninitiated with midi

If you have the time/patience you could try building your own bass? I had nerve issues in my shoulder from using heavy basses and thin straps. I now have a few custom builds on rotation based around the lightest bodies I could find on eBay, combined with wide bass straps, makes a huge difference! (It does however seem to amplify the pain when I occasionally break out my thunderbird)

That looks incredibly fancy! Nice board! I'm looking for that orientation but just wider - which is probably not the most desirable

Not going myself but id recommend people check out my cousin's band GIRLBAND! 3 piece rock band from Nottingham. Their recorded stuff really doesn't do them justice because they are incredible live!

Some very nice looking stuff on there! Not quite what I'm after though!

Is anyone making dual foot switches (for hx stomp) in normal sized pedal enclosures? Currently using the ampero one switch but the empty space on my board is giving me existential dread? Had a look at the boss FS but I'm seeing a common fault with latching issues Thanks!

Played a birthday party in the middle of nowhere in a sweaty tent, no food or drinks with a client who made an ignorant/racist comment to out guitarist right of the bat. I also got to use my newly finished "Grandma's wallpaper" jazz bass. So 7/10 overall

Played a corporate doo for some electrical contractors at the Derbyshire cricket club marquee, total greenhouse but the acoustics were fantastic. Highlight was someone coming up to ask me about my hx stomp patch which is a rarity but not ideal when midway through playing and singing?? Could it not wait dude?

Their main guy was depping for me in November, he was probably bringing the stress of that to work 👀

I stopped using my local one after they took all the prices off for some reason and replaced with qr codes. I asked one of the guys how much a pedal cost and he sarcastically said "why, don't you have a phone?" If you're in Nottingham, just go to Music Inn! Service is second to none

Never gigged one but my guitarist has one in his studio and it keeps up with a drum kit just about! Very easy to dial in a good sound too. With a bit of PA support this should serve you well 👍

Id never heard of this brand until seeing this thread, turns out I've just moved house about 1/4 mile from their old factory site! Spooky

When I was in my teenage years I got kicked out of an indie band just as we were on the cusp of actually making some kind of headway (BBC introducing, some local radio play, bit of a following etc) I got a call one day from the singer saying his mum had cancer and he wanted to stop all band activities to focus on caring for her which I totally understood. A few days later I see a post on our Facebook page saying I left to pursue different avenues. Nobody else in the band had any objection or contacted me. The band stalled and fell apart including some poor financial decisions leaving a few of them in debt and off speaking terms. I see a lot of people saying to poach the singer but for me he is complicit. Find people you can share your passion with and think how lucky you are to not be tied to the sh*ts before it got really messy would be my hot take!

These are absolutely excellent! Such a sleeper pedal

Looks awesome! Definitely worth pursuing

Testing taking mixes from our board into logic, pretty happy with the result 🤟 AUD-20250413-WA0022.mp3

Another wedding close to home and miraculously another broken limiter 🙏 Overall a good night, the highlight being a pissed up woman hovering over our equipment with a large full glass of wine. When I asked her to keep drinks away from the stage she proceeded to straight up down the glass 😂 fair enough... Used my rocky bass after my wife complained I don't use it enough after she took the time to paint it!

Trying to keep all my shoddy work in a self contained thread! Unfortunately I got too hasty with the recent refin and ended up damaging the paintwork in a way that was not cosmetically pleasing Decided to totally change direction and somehow ended up with this

Both great 🤟
