    It's not Jaco if it has frets :roflmao:

    Boss Katana Bass ...

    I'll start with question number two. The manual quote you posted answers your question. You get a high pass filter, and a low pass filter, that are applied to the DI signal only, not the 'AMP' signal. I'm going to make a wild guess here that the three modes are HPF, LPF, and HPF+LPF. But...

    Boss Katana Bass ...

    I saw a metal band yesterday with a little Orange Tiny something on a big 8x10 bass cab, guitar has one or two half stacks... it works! Also, so glad that stage volumes have come down, a return to sanity. I love practicing with my e-drums lately because the entire band can play quieter, it's...

    Boss Katana Bass ...

    Not exactly 100% relevant, maybe 25% relevant, but I have never enjoyed the Rumble series. In person, playing them myself, hearing other people playing them, hearing them on any recording or video. Kind of horrible... "To me." Just sounds like glassy mud, a wet fart kind of tone. Anyway, I...

    The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

    @BBassBassington, I would fill those holes and try again. I love those Hipshot things and have them on all my basses. I think it's good to get them exactly parallel with the nut, and the strings traveling in a straight line as possible. Easier said than done, but I know you could do better...

    Boss Katana Bass ...

    I'm very interested in the 210. Although I would have preferred a head version to any of the combos.

    @causeBASS that was just gorgeous. I play that song too but never like that, well done! (Simple Twist of Fate)

    That V really brings out my inner Nigel Tufnel, I bet it has a Big Bottom.

    That is so good to get an old one back. I did the same for a huge mistake on an old Guild Starfire II guitar, I feel privileged that it came back to me, several years later.

    TC Electronic BQ500 Review

    I'm also not a big Thrust user. The amp is compressed enough sounding already for my taste. Don't remember if I said it already or not but the DI out also sounds pretty good on this amp. This amp tends to "blend in" with the band rather than really poke through or stand out. That could be...

    TC Electronic BQ500 Review

    You can see my picture of a new one a few posts back. All the functions are working on this one, including the passive / active switch.

    New Quilter bass amp!

    Just wanted to answer my own question about the TC BQ500 that I ended up buying. It's "fine." Probably not as good as the Quilter but not bad in any way. A tiny bit dark on the top. Smooth. Some people might really like that. It's built well and I can buy a Quilter later when the time is...

    Why did you quit a band?

    I quit my first band due to artistic differences, which were becoming substantial. As well as narcissistic, aggressive behaviour from another member. There seems to be one of those in every band. At least the bands I've been in. Had to come to grips with the fact that these guys were very...
