[quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1431628285' post='2773436'] I use [url="http://www.thegigrig.com/acatalog/SupaNova.html"]this[/url] to power my MB compressore. Never had a problem with it. [/quote] Interesting - thanks. But it just powers the one pedal, right? I have the Markbass psu for the compressore, and that works fine - but I was hoping to just have the one power supply on my pedal board that would feed everything on it (currently six pedals including the compressore - mostly 9v of course).

[quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1419166271' post='2637107'] Used to use a DC Brick. Faultless, but when I got a TC Nove Dynamics and a Markbass Booster I needed 12v so switched to a T Rex Fuel Tank. Never an ounce of trouble. DC Brick is for sale by the way (crafty plug eh?) [/quote] I was looking at a Fuel Tank because I also run a 12v Markbass pedal (compressore), but noticed the MB website says it needs a minimum of 600ma, whereas the fuel tank only supplies 500 (I think?). I take it from your post that that hasn't been an issue in practice..?

Easy to answer - Yamaha BB1024 (or 1025 if you like having a confusing number of strings). I've had several Fender P basses, and a few non-Fender ones besides, but the 1024 leaves them in the dust I reckon. And not expensive either. Cheaper than a US Pbass for sure.

I had a red Aerodyne Pbass a few years back - bought (and sold) on here - lovely looking instrument, but I was never convinced that the tone was anything like as cool as the appearance..

I love my 1024. I've had many more expensive instruments in the past - some have been great, some less so - and they've all come and gone in due course... But the 1024 has stayed and wont be going anywhere anytime soon. Absolutely amazing value, even from new.

Hello all - I have a first gig tonight with a new band in Leeds. I'd love to record it, but my boss micro BR suddenly stopped working yesterday (after years of faithful service). It may be fixable, but I won't have time to try before tonight. Just wondering if any kind soul in the York/Leeds area might have one (or something similar- Zoom H2 maybe?) I could borrow (or rent for a modest fee)? I have a good mic, so that's not a problem. Be very glad to hear from anyone who might be able to help. I'd need to be able to collect before about 5pm in York, or before 7in Leeds. We're playing at 9ish in Carpe Diem should you fancy coming along to support a fellow BCer! Cheers. AL
