    Ampeg sgt-di

    been looking at the sgt-di for quite some time, currently running a pf350&115 cab with ampeg opto comp & Jptr fx jive. Our band is doing some recording for an ep on garage band. The pf350 already has an xlr out does it make sense getting the sgt-di? Have heard mixed things about di from amp...

    Kasledar albatross fuzz

    Just stumbled across this YouTube demo and am extremely impressed, it’s exactly what I have been looking for in a fuzz, subtle, warm, versatile with a nice vintage flavour. Have looked at their reverb store doesn’t seem to be in stock atm, does anyone know of any other products in the same...

    Hofner ?

    I have just seen the long scale version of this bass pop up for sale locally, I have been on the hunt for a vintage one for a while. How do these reissues compare to the vintage models?

    Ampeg scrambler

    Recently picked up the ampeg scrambler overdrive after searching for a mild overdrive. Took it to practice last night and was extremely underwhelmed how much low end this cuts, I had the basically crank the volume and cut the blend to be heard in the mix. Has anyone else had a similar experience...

    Ibanez rickenbacker pickup replacement.

    Have recently been looking into replacing the pickups on my 1976 ibanez bolt on rickenbacker. (Which are insanely microphonic) has anyone had a similar experience and can recommend a decent set of replacements or should I stick with the stock?

    Drive for 9050 Flats?

    How have you found the mojo mojo? I am looking at trying it out. Seems to have a good rep for pairing well with flats & delivering warm vintage od at an affordable price.

    Preamp/di recommendations

    I do trust it but wanting some piece of mind if something was to happen mid gig. Love the sound of it so will stick with it and wanting something more compact to carry around instead of lugging another head around.

    Preamp/di recommendations

    Have looked at this as I like the headphones out but is the exact same preamp as the pf 350, I like the idea of being able to have a consistent tone if I happen to using another bands rig at a gig but do you think it makes much sense having same preamp in both amp and pedal?

    Preamp/di recommendations

    awesome appreciate the detailed response. If I went with the bddi v2 I would only use it as a light drive as I do tend it go for a cleaner tone with plenty of thump. I have heard great things about radial di’s do you think I should go for the j48 to pair with my ric or go for the added drive...

    The radial jdi has been on my radar for quite some time now as I do like the sound of the preamp from my pf 350 gives me but was thinking a preamp pedal to add a touch of drive when needed in certain songs. But maybe I should just keep it simple with a decent di and add a od pedal later on.

    thanks for the reply just worried about the build quality of Behringers hoping for something I can have for a long time

    Yeah I think I’m definitely leaning towards the bddi v2 at this stage
