    Ampeg SGT-DI

    Thanks 2saddleslab for the response. Have you or anyone else compared recording a DI and then applying plugins in the box versus using a pedal like the SGT DI? Does the Ampeg SGT DI create a better tone than for instance using the Brainworks B15 plugin on a bass DI signal?

    Ampeg SGT-DI

    Is the SGT DI any good for recording? I’m interested in recording without having to mic a bass amp… as I do not have room for an amp. How does this pedal sound going straight into a Daw? Currently I just use a DI box (Radial J48) and go straight into the Daw (Logic) and then use various bass...

    Hey guys: I live out in Hawaii on Oahu. I’m going to be selling my Cat bass on Craigslist out here. I just have not been able to play it as I had hoped. Here is a picture of it. It’s in perfect shape.

    Is the tension of the strings noticeable between the Dunlop’s and the low tension La Bella’s?

    Sounds like the original buttons and what is advertised on the web site with a picture of the button symbols had very clear stickers on the buttons. Those were the first version. The second version, which we have all been recieving in the last few months, have the newer technology of the symbol...

    wow… I wonder why they decided to go from cool looking clear logos in version 1 to the thin barely visable for version 2. I too would very much like to have buttons where the symbol is readable. I’m concerned that my buttons will be unreadable in the very near future.

    Your silkscreen logos on your buttons are different than mine. Did you have them custom that? My buttons have a very thin white logo on black buttons… the white logo is supper thin and already looks worn off yet I just got my cat.

    So, my bass was supposed to be 6.5 pounds or less. It’s closer to 7. I played it for 15 minutes on a neoprene 4” wide strap and my shoulder says no more. Not sure what I’m gonna do You may want to try playing while sitting down. The bass is very well balanced and definitely does not need a...

    It’s weird they didn’t think of this…or maybe it’s an error made by the Indonesian factory. Seems like Carey Nordstrand is very detail oriented… so it’s just kind of odd. Anyhow… it’s pretty minor and so there’s no way I’m touching this bass in the way described above.

    Super stoked! Finally got the Cat bass today. She’s a beauty. I did a sound check on her and everything works great and she sounds great. Lots of available tones to choose from with the push of a button. The only thing that is odd to me is why the A hipshot lollypop tuning peg is so close to the...

    I am order #6132 and I got the email today that the cat is on it’s way. It should be at my place on the 17th. I ordered it on Feb 15th… so… approximately 3 months.

    Because their website shows they are sold out of certain strings, perhaps they are out of the strings you requested. Which strings did you order?
