Not a bass but I have a geetar that I'm wiring up and I want to make sure this is correct. It's for a Brian May tribute, so the pickups are wired in series. The pickguard doesn't have enough room for 6 DTDP switches, so I figured I'd use three DT3P (DTTP) switches instead. Would this work...

So far so good! I’m digging it! Behringer Toro Unboxing & Demo

Fair enough. He is great, but definitely buried in the mix. I was into him with Infectious Grooves and was impressed, so I was happy to hear he got the Metallica gig. In bass pedal news, I picked up a set of PK-5As! :D

Robert Trujillo isn't a good bass player?! :roflmao: Have you heard the man play?!

Played my first gig with my new (to me) Variax 4 string. Fun bass, but the batteries died on the last song of the night! That’s what I get for not using the AC adapter box thing. I also gig with a Shuriken Variax (rhythm guitar on a few songs), and tuning & switching guitar models is so...

I've been using my Line6 Helix LT as my MIDI bass pedals for the last couple of gigs. There are a few songs we play with some sound effects that I trigger or a note here or there, but aside from The Spirit Of Radio, I am not really playing a lot of MIDI notes (we play a variety of stuff, not...

My 12Step crapped out a couple of years ago, long past the warranty period. That SlimPhatty seems pretty sweet though!

Yup, lots. Here are a couple I like: Arduino MIDI Bass Pedals Build MIDI Bass Pedals for About $150

I've been thinking about making my CV to MIDI adapters again. They were perfect for making your own MIDI pedals out of old organ bass pedals or something like arcade buttons like TheEmptyShell mentioned. There are plenty of ways to do it with Arduinos if you like that kind of thing.

I'm really liking my X44 Xccelerator a lot, it looks like the same configuration as yours. Interestingly, it came with a Carvin branded gig bag, Carvin branded tuners and bridge pickup. I'm assuming this was made when the transition was from Carvin to Kiesel. Usually I'm not a fan of active...

I just got this one. Interesting, doing a search on the model came up with a for sale thread from TB from a few years ago. Small world, especially in NH eh? :D

I'm gassing for a fretted Godin A4 with synth access (13 pin). Does anyone have any leads? :D

I just got my second BB300 from @hentor2112 and it’s got a mismatched tuner. Does anyone know if you can somehow retrofit a Hipshot Xtender to accept a Yamaha heart shaped tuner? One of these guys (eBay photo)? I really don’t want to pay $60 for one tuner unless it’s an Xtender.

Zombie-ish thread revival. I made my own from an unused small Allen wrench I had. It works on both my BB300 basses.

I ended up getting some money back on mine ($30 USD) since I complained to them about the finishing compound all over everything. Wasn't about to send it back, too much trouble. My tuners were also crappy and I swapped them out for Gotohs as well adding Dunlop straplocks, EB Super Slinkies and a...
