    How many pedals do you use on a job?

    I'm not a pedalfreak but when playing I a coverband I usually tend to use different mixes of Compression, Chorus and Drive. I have had several different brands and variations but sold all of it. Now I only use the Zoom B3n which provides me with more than I ever need in ONE unit. It also allow...

    Discontinued amps/cabs

    I have a Bugera Nuke that actually do deliver quite a punch through two 410s (8ohm). But most venues I bring my EBS Reidmar 750 (plenty of power and a lot lighter.)

    Poll: If you gig in a rock cover band, what type of bass do you play?

    We play rock covers and I use an ESP Ltd B-405SM with EMG pickups (soapbars), and the neck pickup emulates a P-Base quite well. So I guess I am able to cover most of the original bass sound on our set lists. I feel great about the sound the playability, unfortunately they don't make them any...

    D'addario NYXLs vs. DR Pure Blues

    There is quite few saying DR Pure Blues is the ones to go for. I am a five string player and have changed from [This invalid link has been removed]s to [This invalid link has been removed] and I really enjoy the NYXLs, I will probably not change again (in the near future).

    Testing Compressors: Cali, Smoothie, Empress, Diamond, Keeley, FEA, Darkglass, Doc Lloyd, Lusithand & more

    I use the Zoom B3n as my main "pedal-board" and the reason is of course the convinience of switching between personal edited presets, in a compact "one single unit". Separate pedals may deliver greater sound according to some people, but I believe that the Zoom B3n is very very good. Do I use...

    Bugera The Nuke BTX3600 review (long!)

    I am a lucky one to! I think it is among the best you can by for that kind of money. If You only have like ten gigs in a year it will give You some great gigs and I think that is the reality to many non professionals. And if You are a professional it my be worth considering (if You dont have to...

    One knob is neat, but I choose TC Electronic Hyper Gravity instead and got a separate blend-knob :-). With the toneprint editor You can edit pretty much everything, and it is a true multiband kompressor (can be set as an "vintage oldtimer" if You want). It does what the spectracomp does, but You...

    Zoom B3n or MS-70CDR?

    Well, taste is what it is. I do own a Zoom B3n, and it made me sell all my TC Electronic gear. The helix is a great product, but the Zoom B3n covers me very well. Soundquality is good, and it is very easy to edit. At the pricepoint of ONE butiqe pedal it is very hard to beat. Some of the earlier...

    New amp choices - any advice...

    I do own a Bugera Nuke 3600, but I also own an EBS Reidmar 750 and I think You should try it (light weght, but strong and clear sound). But You would probably be quite satisfied with the GK1001RB to.
