    What would you put after your HX Stomp?

    The Darkglass Luminal Booster Pedal after the HX Stomp gives you a better compressor with LEDs, DI out with switchable IRs, Graphic EQ, and more.

    P-Bass Pickup recommendation for Blues

    Lollar's are bad ass as well.

    P-Bass Pickup recommendation for Blues

    I put a EMG GZR-P in my Fender Professional II Precision. I play in a working blues band and love the sound. https://www.newlegacyblues.com/ https://www.emgpickups.com/gzr-p.html

    Let’s see some gig boards!

    Similar to my rig. Curious why you don't use the tuner on the Shure wireless? See attached.

    Ways to economize

    Whatever you do don't buy one of these. We did and this ball of fur has cost me $10k in five months between vet bills, supplies, damage to property, etc. :cool:

    Dean Markley Blue Steels no bueno for me =[

    You are not wrong! I had the same reaction. Using D'Addario NYXL Nickel strings now and could not be happier.

    Leather straps

    I have three of these. They are not cheap but as you pointed out, they are comfortable and last forever. Great product! https://moodyleather.com/

    Another NBD Experiment

    Glad you survived the stroke and came through it strong enough to keep plugging away on the bass! Best!

    Oh boy! I LOVE the Magellan PRE/DI (amp replacement)

    Ampeg +_P Bass

    Absolutely. I feel like the mids on Ampeg amps are perfect for taming a mid-focused P-bass. I've played my P bass in some modern amps and the mid honk is horrible. I have an EQ (Darkglass Luminal Booster Ultra) on my pedalboard now in case the house amp is not an Ampeg. You have to cut at 500...

    Do you own more than one Fender American Professional II Precision Bass?

    I have one Fender American Professional II Precision Bass in Olympic white, rosewood board, Geezer Butler EMG P/U. Amazing bass! Only need one! :)

    Rush... Unhappy ticket experience

    Yeah, I'm a big Rush fan but won't be seeing them on this tour or likely in the future due to 1) abusive ticket pricing and 2) the insane Ticketmaster experience and fees. I've seen Rush many times with Neil and I can say I've seen them at their very best so I'm good. Not paying $700 plus fees...

    Mas Hino Bass actually built with Warmoth Parts

    There seems to be a lot of "cork sniffing" when it comes to certain brands. I feel that a lot of these premium / bespoke instruments are being elevated way beyond their actual intrinsic value. I own a Moollon J Classic, an Elrick Evo 5 String Gold, and a Fender P. All great basses that all get...

    What are you using as a router/access point with your digital mixer?

    I carry a TP Link as a backup but in 5 GHz mode, the Allen & Health CQ-20B onboard WiFi seems just fine after two years of use on club stages and rehearsals.
