I could get away with just the Boss ODB but where's the fun in that?

I'm guessing any "novelty" effect can take new lease of life with that new variable to play with. And yes, I mean envelope filters, synths, auto-wahs pedals. I consider Fuzz to be one of the fundamental effects pedals for the bass. YMMV :hiding:

It sounds like Gershwin having a hoedown. I guess it's not for me. Sorry.

Heh, I didn't know you could get power supplies that let you adjust the voltage like that? Sounds like a fun thing to play with.

If I was a full-time musician struggling to get by? Then I can appreciate the sentiment. The company could throw a few quid my way to help me pay the rent in exchange for what is effectively - to them - free advertising. On an ethical point, maybe I don't want to give the (false) impression...

The Psychic Life record he did with Julie Campbell in 2011 was excellent, in case anyone is wondering.

I'm glad someone else mentioned this one. It had a lot of potential but since you could only adjust the presets via a laptop the thing was damn near useless when it came to using it with a band. The octaver that it was dualled with was completely pointless as well. And the price....£300? That...

It's also important to remember that most often only the band notices the mistakes.

I suspect that was RHCP version?

The Sansamp DDI makes the overdrive and EQ pedals a bit redundant does it not?

Something involving fire....

Ask the tabloids, they've been shelling out bad/unhappy news for the last 50 years. And people still lap it up. Misery sells I guess. I don't think it's about fear, it's about making you think that your life isn't as bad as that dead guy. Or that you're a better person than that corrupt...

Android phones are more customizable, but there are also more apps. iPhone has less apps because the vetting process by apple is stricter (or more expensive) You don't need to use iTunes on an android device, that's a benefit by the way! Just buy from wherever you want and drag and drop them...
