    NBD - Epiphone Embassy

    I bought a black one in July. I totally love it for more old school 50’s/60’s tones. Super versatile blend control. If I’d been able I’d have been the green colour I’d have been more than chuffed- it’s a glorious colour.

    The Bass You Wanted to Like

    Ricky. Tried several, but it just didn’t do it for me. I really really wanted it to feel great - as a student of people like Cliff, lemmy et al, but I quickly came to the realisation that it just isn’t for me. 😢

    Best value Fuzz pedal?

    I’ve been eyeing up the gloam for a while. It’s always good to hear positive reactions The behringer super fuzz fz2 clone is awesome for the few quid it costs as well.

    Is pefect pitch really perceived like color?

    It’s very possible. In the book musicophilia, the psychologist author discusses this and other ‘conditions’ associated with music. Well worth a read

    The Clock in Pink Floyd's Time

    Whenever I played this out, I used the muted string thing and a looper so I didn’t have to play it for so long 😉

    Recommend me a reverb pedal but...

    Marshall reflector. Keenly priced, fairly easy to find and sounds great.

    Problems with Sims Custom Shop (TN, paint)

    I wonder if this fella is anything to do with Martyn sims in the U.K. as they share the same business name? I feel certain that if they were associated via a franchise or somesuch, he would be appalled at the customer service

    First (earliest) dirt pedal made and marketed for bass?

    The dod bass overdrive came out before the boss odb3 by a little bit, and iirc I read somewhere that the dod was the first one actually to use the word bass on it to be marketed in 82

    What bass pres should I consider for a church?

    I always use an mxr m80 di+. Tonally can do lots, and has lots of options with the extra channel It can be phantom powered as well, so no need of any batteries too 😉😉

    Who else love and uses the Joyo Orange Juice and/or Oxford Sound or Tech 21 Oxford?

    I have several ojs and the Oxford sound. I use an oj as a shaper / mild drive on boards for my ozzy tribute, general dep board and my recording rig. I find if the drive is too high, the low end drops, so it is used more as a shaper. I used to have the t21 offering but sold it and regretted...

    fender standart p bass vs fender Steve Harris p bass

    I have both an American standard and one of the blue Japanese Steve Harris signature models. They are both completely different beasts. The Harris has a neck like a baseball bat and is very heavy generally. The American standard by comparison has a neck that is quite skinny, and is generally a...

    How do you get a HUGE bass sound?

    I had this exact issue in a 3 pace with vox, which took a little while to solve. After lots of experimenting I settled on a Marshall 810 with dbs head although the eq is more important than the gear as such. I use plenty of volume with a “British frown” eq shape rather than the classic...

    Dunlop Geezer Wah - BLAH.. Quite disappointed.

    I also play in a sab tribute. I had been using an Ibanez weeping demon for bass duties to great effect (sorry ! lol) I also stumbled upon a gzr wah for sale and thought it would give me a more gzr esque sound. However I found the wah to be too polite for the sound I needed. More wah less WAH...

    First pedal

    Considering the variables given in the op, either the palmer or nux would be perfect. The laney digbeth also has a headphone out, and sounds incredible.

    Looking for a mute switch. Thoughts?

    I used to use an ab switch with nothing in one loop, but eventually built one. I used a tb switch and sent the signal to ground when muted. I added a led to show when it was muted as well. Still works very well some 15 years later

    Mini Overdrives I can find little info on. Pigtronix Gamma Drive, Wampler Plexi Drive, MXR Duke of Tone. Any of these good on bass?

    I’ve been using the b box for a while - I use mine on top of an aggressive core tone and the eq points are helpful in maintaining lows but not overly boostable. I hope that makes sense.

    most universal preamp?

    Without trawling through the rest of the replies, I would say that the tech 21 Steve Harris preamp is the single most versatile pedal I own. It can do jamerson esque through to lemmy and cliff inspired sounds with ease and massive room for adjustment, with a tuner built in as well. Pretty...
