I'm primarily a guitarist. But I also learned and play bass. The bassists that really turned me on to playing are Steve Harris (Iron Maiden), Karl Alvarez (Descendents / All), Bob Thompson (Big Drill Car), Paul McCartney, & Carol Kaye.

I fully understand that argument. It's definitely a trade-off. I like to keep my pedalboard wired and ready to go and I require rock tones from surf to classic metal tones, and the Multidrive is such a huge space saver. The more I get to know the pedal the better I'm getting at dialing it in...

I just discovered and bought this pedal myself, but primarily for guitar. I'm very happy to hear how much bass players are liking this too though. I'll have to get my bass out tonight and give it a spin. This pedal is not getting nearly enough love in the guitar community. It definitely isn't...

Free bump. Awesome pedal. I'd buy it if I hadn't just bought a new one from PGS.

I had wondered about the soft switches when I first got the Multidrive. That sort of fully clears things up for me too. I love the soft switches too. How do you like the Heavy? Ultra heavy tones usually aren't my thing but I love this Multidrive a lot, so I'm curious about their other Dirt box...

Here's what Cody wrote... "For powering it from the PP2+, you'll need to use either output 5 or 6. The original version of the Multidrive used less current and could be powered from outputs 1 to 4, but the new version uses relays and a micro processor to handle switching duties, so it needs...

I found this thread while doing a search for the Multidrive's mA requirements. It seems the current revision of the Multidrive takes 180mA of power and requires output 5 or 6 (250mA outlets) on the Pedal Power 2 Plus to power it. I just emailed with Cody from Empress and he gave me this info. I...

I actually really like a burgundy/red on the cream white fender. but that's just me.

Thanks for the info. I'll give eveything another look.

Bump. Thanks. Wanted to make sure the daytime crowd got a chance to see this.

Bought my SR500 in later summer of '09. I just now noticed my bridge pickup isn't working. No output at all, but the neck pickup seems fine. Not sure when it happened, as the last few times I recorded with this bass, I was laying down quick bass tracks, so I just turned everything up, zero'd...

I don't really trust gig bags. Doesn't truly protect the neck in the event of a bad fall, or if something falls on it. But it is an option to consider, thanks.

I've had an SR500 for a couple years. Didn't get a case for it at the time, as it never leaves my studio. Sits on a guitar stand when not in use. I want a case for it for the rare trip out, the yearly setup at my local guitar shop, and for storing it in the closet when not being used for a...

45-105, as per their manual.

I'd just let it go. Don't spend your money when you have more pressing things going on. I am nowhere near your situation, but I had (and still have) a chance to buy back the first acoustic guitar my father bought for me when I was a kid. Basically, it still resides with an old acquaintance...
