    Boss SY-200 Synthesizer

    Quickest pedal flip I've ever done was the C4. I didn't enjoy the presets, and when I went to the site to try to download other users presets I nearly took out my ears. I really don't want to have to hook a pedal up to my phone... trying to adjust dials on a touchscreen *yuck.* And I don't want...

    How to EQ heavy distortion?

    Fea Labs DB-CL Keep your lows clean (or clean ish) and sizzle those highs.

    If you could build a custom bass amp head...

    Underrated feature would be to include high and low pass filters. Parametric eq. Preamp tube. Class D. Aluminum chassis. Effects loop.

    5 string basses should be 35” scale

    This is a very helpful and thoughtful post. I hate changing strings and reworking stuff like that, but it's time for me to consider a different gauge for my B string.

    Blender/crossover pedal?

    Use a mini mixer to bring them back together, or having two signals to bi amp or send to the house. But the broughton pedal is very cool.

    Do you care about who the pedal builder is as a person when buying an effect?

    Only builders I've interacted with were by email and it was all positive. Fea-Labs, Broughton Audio, and Saturnworks.

    Blender/crossover pedal?

    Why not do yourself a favor and buy the cleanest coolest pedal available in the bass world? FEA Labs DB-CL. A beautiful compressor that also serves as a crossover.

    New Darkglass pedal to complement my harmonic booster

    I went Alpha Haunt for my fuzz, but I was very tempted by the darkglass duality. If your into the brand give it a listen.

    Pedal switcher for the ambient bassist

    Might look at saturnworks. They probably either have what you need or would make it for you. Edited to say whoopsie someone already said that. But... I was excited to chime in because I'm looking at similar kinds of things. Good luck!

    EHX Pog vs. Canyon octave mode vs. Mooer Tender vs. ???

    Love my pog 2. Does double duty for me with a fun chorus sound.

    ACME bass gear and CS

    Also, you can do what I did and watch the used market for a couple years and get another B2.

    ACME bass gear and CS

    Yo dawg, I heard you like 30hz. Get yourself a setup with crossover and two amps and put your lows in that sweet ACME cab and put your highs in something tight lije an eden 210xlt. Thank me later.

    Are your cab and amp the same brand?

    Nope: Darkglass microtubes amp 2x Acme B2 cabs

    Which phrase annoys you the most?

    But: if it's not a rodeo, wouldn't it be true to say that it is not my first rodeo? Just start letting people know they're not at a rodeo and enjoy the appropriate groans that come back in your direction. Or carry a red cape in a satchel everywhere you go and throw it at the offender, put your...
