As above- with a variety of settings/ tones too!

Hi mate, whereabouts are you based?
I'm interested in the used stand

Isn't there a bass harmony machine? Can't recall the manufacturer though

All because he has a book out !

Apparently my cd is on the way-
Looking forward to getting my hands on it!

With maiden also confirmed for donington, it's been an awesome day!

Do you have this listed on eBay?

Apart from the ernie ball, the boss fv500 is great.
Really adjustable and costs less than the ernie
It also has an exp out too, which works really well

Unfortunately the mobile version doesn't show the location. I suspect Cosmo is using that theme!

After going through a few different pairs, I settled on a pair of Bose triport ie.
Lovely sound although not isolating. Clear bass and great top end. To my ears they sound pretty transparent too

He also uses an me50 - the guitar one

Qp pups will definitely do the job. I have them in all of my builds.
Growly, aggressive, with a ton of low end.
Can often be found around here secondhand for £35-40

I've used the Marshall reflector to great effect. Costs around £80 new and 30-40 s/h
A great solution at a reasonable cost

I've used mine in rocky/ metal bands, function bands and church worship bands.
Sounded great and present in all siruations

The leading candidates will be the mxr as mentioned above- although I wouldn't describe it as clean per se, more growly.
The ebs - new around £100 so s/h should be £60-£70. less growly than the mxr, and what I would call clean
The dod octoplus- highly underrated pedal. The only octave I have found that gives you a tone control for the effected octave. Should be found for around £40 ish.
Hth

I'll check mine too

Ive had two over the years- never had issue with the bridge.
I would still much rather have the original bridge though

Could be that one.
I looked at it before, but the bridge has been changed

Hey Paul,
Don't suppose you could throw me the link if you're not interested could you?

In one band, my stagename is Rex thunderbolt.
My drummist is Rocco savage, our Singist is Kelly zero, and guitarists are rhys lightning and jimmy nightwear

Iirc he is known for using old beaten up ampeg heads. The sound there is most likely a cranked head.
I've heard people use the ebs multidrive to good effect, but any pedal that can emulate driven valves should get you in the ballpark.

My home town was immortalised by chas and Dave and only fools and horses.
We saw both lots doing the filming when I were a lad!
The town in question is, of course - Margate!

Anyone?

I currently have the oc2, ebs, mxr, and dod octoplus.
I've also got the whammy and digitech bsw both of which do a decent octave. I've also used the ehx and Aguilar. However the latter two didn't stand out for me sound wise
It's absolutely crucial to find the one that sits best with your playing in a mix. I spent hours with both the mxr and ebs going head to head. I went with the ebs initially, but found for me that it didn't sit right in my mix. However once I got the mxr it all worked perfectly for me.
The dod and boss have their own distinct and individual sounds and have definite uses for certain genres.
I have to say that I love all of them in differing ways

Bought a bass from Ben.
A thoroughly nice and personable chap, both online and in person.
I would happily deal with him again anytime!
Cheers

If they work independently- it is most likely a case of keep trying.
They way I do it is to practice the bass part until I don't have to think about it actively, and then that releases my head to concentrate on the vocal side of it.
Practice will make it better
