    EQ or comp?

    Thanks for the replies, everyone! Regarding the models, what do you think of the GEB-7 and the BC-X1 (the Boss EQ and comp)? Are they good pedals for the price?

    EQ or comp?

    Hey! I’ve got a pedalboard for playing live with my indie rock band — it’s got an overdrive, a fuzz, a chorus, and an octave pedal. For the stuff we play, I’m not really getting much use out of the octave (the rest are non-negotiable). I was thinking about swapping it for an EQ or a compressor...

    Sire P5-4 vs Fender Player II Precision

    The only problem is that where I'm from (Barcelona) there aren't any shops that stock Sire basses. I might go for the Fender instead. I loved the build quality and I'll have a bit more of a go with the pickups

    Fender Player II Precision vs Yamaha BB434

    Thanks, man. The price difference between the Sterlings and the Stingrays was so big I hadn’t even considered them

    Fender Player II Precision vs Yamaha BB434

    I’ll try them both out today. Thanks for your reply. I’ve heard Aguilar pickups are amazing for punchy bass tones

    No man. I'm from Spain and I check the spelling in every reply. I'm not an AI Bot jajaaja

    Fender Player II Precision vs Yamaha BB434

    Stingray is too expensive an option for me right now. Their prices have gone up a lot. Thank you very much. I’ll try to test both today, the Yamaha and the Fender

    Fender Player II Precision vs Yamaha BB434

    You know how tricky it can be to decide which bass to buy. I’m thinking of buying the Player II, but I wanted to gather some reviews on the Yamaha BB434 to see if I could consider it as an option
