    Recommendations for an octave pedal

    That;s what I have, as well. The best sub tones I've ever heard, and it tracks down to C# on my B strings, and it has no trouble with open strings. You can also switch it to polyphonic. While it doesn't have octave up, it does have an effects loop that you specify which side it hits. You could...

    Recommendations for an octave pedal

    I know there have been people who modded their Micro Pogs to have a second set of knobs and a second switch. This is probably just their way of having two different settings.

    New La Bella "Stang" Short Scale Series

    I just ordered a set of super polished for my Paranormal Rascal. I liked them on my PBass well enough but I need that one back with rounds. So these will replace the JMJ set that are currently on there.

    New LaBella through body Mustang options

    LaBella just released a whole bunch of new through body short scale strings for Mustangs style bridges. I’m very excited to try the Super Polished on my Squier Paranormal. The JMJ flats are great but not what I’m looking for on this bass. All in stock on the website. My Super Polished are...

    What's your rig of choice for this weekend? Part 2.

    Friday’s rig. First time using the ELF cab with the Mesa Subway 1x15 I got last week. Probably not needed, but wow—did this sound good. TT-800 into Subway 1x15 and ELF 2x8. Boss MD-200 and Source Audio C4 & Ventris pedals my Hoyt-Gado Hybrid V did the thing all night. Darkglass MT-200 was there...

    La Bella Orange Nylon Strings

    I just put a set of these on my fretless Bongo. These strings are wild. Super light tension. A strange feel with the round wounds and the nylon. I’m pretty sure these have the inner core of the Olinto flat wounds with round wound wire. I am probably going to move them to a fretted Bongo but I’m...

    Labella Super Polished

    Reach out to LaBella through the website. They sent me a replacement D string (for a set that I got from Amazon). I wonder if they are storing them poorly or if their automation processes are damaging the strings.

    Labella Super Polished

    I got a set of these yesterday in the mail, and was excited to put them on my 76 PBass with a Geezer pickup. Sadly, the D string broke at the ball end when it was about a 5th below pitch. I think that’s the second ball end failure in 30+ years. 🤷🏻‍♂️ In any event, I messaged LaBella customer...

    Squier Paranormal Rascal Bass $349 Short

    I just picked up the pink for $359 from Fender. Worth the extra $10

    This sounded amazing and gave enough stage volume without being a pain in the ass after a 2 1/2 hour high energy gig with no breaks.

    PYPB 44: ...like Tetris with boxes, wires and cables

    Just as I was about to say that this might be the final form for a while, I realized this picture is from before I added the HPF back. Oops.

    What's your rig of choice for this weekend? Part 2.

    That’s the 2x8. It works great indoors but if I want to use it on even low volume outdoor gigs, I usually add a 1x12.
