  1. Yes.....it does. It is also 9v which helps. The Radial Tonebone pz-pre is 15v. The EBS will power up on the board easier. The pz-pre is absolutely awesome, great sound quality and great build. For me it’s the best acoustic pre amp out there - until now!
  2. Please let us know when you’ve done the review Dood - colour me very interested.
  3. Exactly. With the Tonebone you have to find a compromise so that both DB & EB sound good via the eq. This solves that.
  4. That looks superb. Seems to have the same functionality as the Radial Tonebone Pz Pre (my pre of choice) but the TB only has 1 eq strip for both channels whereas this has 1 for each. Very cool indeed. Pricing looks similar too and both EBS and Radial know how to build a quality product.
  5. ‘Tis true in my case. I was a poor guitarist. My bass playing is ahem ‘passable’. However, it’s a bit of fun and not to be taken seriously. There’s enough cr4p going on in the World that we can take offence at so good on them for trying to lighten things a little.
  6. I've been researching octave pedals since watching the Guy Pratt lockdown videos and the OC5 ended up top of my list. I noticed last night that nowhere seemed to have stock so finally looked at Amazon who had plenty. Saw your post and thought I'd share the link for you however I seem to have bought one for myself before sharing lol 😆

  8. It's white with a tortie plate and a maple board and its AWESOME! Yours? Pic below.
  9. During lockdown v1 I bought a Markbass MB121p. I wanted a portable lightweight amp for rehearsals that would sound good with both electric and double bass. Bought from a member on here. A couple of weeks later I bought a NY121 new from Muziker to go with it for future gigs. Between lockdowns I was able to acquire my dream bass - Sadowsky metroline MV4 (Japan) Will Lee. The guy I bought it from is also a member on here. Very happy with all of these acquisitions.
  10. Well, that worked well enough. Only played at home volume levels but definitely worth exploring more once I get back in the rehearsal room and playing at volume. It’s like a hole in the eq spectrum has been filled and there is a ‘sheen’ present that wasn’t there before. Thanks again for the tip.
  11. This is interesting - I’m going to try adding some presence to my mb121p tomorrow by using my eq pedal. Thanks for the tip.
  12. My company was involved in the design, supply, installation and commissioning of the liquid medical oxygen systems at the Nightingale hospitals. A typical installation at a hospital would normally take around 6 months to 2 years. These were installed in a week! Just shows what can be achieved when bureaucracy is removed and people are allowed to get on with it!
  13. Do Fender put off white markers in there to match the tinted neck? They all might be the same. I don't know because I've never been close up to one but someone may know. The replacement may be the same.
  14. I found the attached quite informative. https://www.classicfm.com/music-news/coronavirus/government-latest-guidance-on-rehearsals-concerts-live-music/
  15. Just bought a bass from Paul. Perfect transaction. All communication was good and questions were answered immediately. The description was spot-on and the bass was despatched and received very quickly. Well packaged too. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him at anytime. Thanks again mate!
  16. Just take the Mesa and tell him it’s a di. He sounds clueless so won’t know the difference. Actually with no cab there is no difference. I’m also wondering why no upright bass!
  17. Sad news - I went to see UFO many times and was a huge fan. Pete was a massive influence. The Bassline’s were just so right.
  18. I used to own (and regret selling) a Fender USA deluxe Jazz - Pre 2010 with the downsized body. Sadowsky also do a Jazz with the smaller body than a regular Jazz. Are there any other manufacturers producing these?
  19. Another vote for AER here - loud, punchy and a tone and fundamental that is a cut above anything else I have tried. I use an amp two. Lush!
  20. I'm happy to start a feedback thread for Mark who I met up with this evening. I was seriously tempted by the Markbass CMD121P he had up for sale so following the exchange of a few messages, I collected the amp from his home. I found him to be polite and courteous throughout and a very friendly guy. If it wasn't for social distancing we would probably chatted for hours. Nice to meet you today Mark and the amp is awesome. I would deal with Mark anytime without hesitation.
  21. Hi, can I ask if you have a cover for this please? Thanks.
  22. What a huge difference the tort makes to the overall look of this bass. Looks superb and HW Audio is a great music store.
  23. I keep coming back to this for a look. Stunning looking bass! When you say “attributed to an unknown early 21st Century maker” does that mean you know the maker’s name but he is not well known or you don’t know who made the bass? If the latter how do you know it was made in Hungary? Thanks in advance.
