Well, after a bit of market research and some rather kind and constructive feedback, I've decided to make a few more videos and see if they prove useful/enjoyable for the good folk of YouTube land. Tomorrow morning at 9AM (Australian Western Standard Time), Bass Gear Demos by Dawghouse officially launches with not one, not two, but three videos. With all hopefully continuing to go as planned I'll release 1-2 videos per week, at least until I clear the backlog of preamps that I'm currently testing. Any feedback you might have is always appreciated, and if there's any gear that you want to see me demo, let me know - if it is feasible I'll add it to the list.

Bass Gear Demos by Dawghouse

To give you an idea of what's to come, here's the list of preamps/DIs that I'll be making videos about in the coming weeks:

Nordstrand Starlifter
feat. The Rev Nobelium
Avalon U5
Wayne Jones WJBP
Sushi Box Finally V3
Caveman BP1 Compact
Arkham Oracle
Mesa Boogie Subway+ Preamp II
Booya! Amplification Filament
Walrus Audio Mantle
Demeter VTBP-201
Sushi Box Mayday
3Leaf Audio Enabler
Trickfish Minnow
Alembic F-1X
Aguilar DB924
Ampeg SGT-DI
EBS Microbass 3
JHS Color Box V2
Shift Line Olymic III
Broughton Helion
Broughton P15
Conspiracy to Commit Electronics Nobelium
Conspiracy to Commit Electronics Bassdude D.I.
Earthquaker Devices Scrolls
Nightowl Industries Edison
Two Notes Revolt Bass
Jad Freer Luce

What I'd like to have but haven't found yet or can't justify the price yet:
Noble DI (of course)
Jule Amps Simone
Demeter Minnie Preamp
Broughton Messenger
Broughton Studio One

Let me know if there's any glaring omissions from the list, and in the meantime, keep an eye out for my upcoming videos. I'll post them in this thread as they release.

Thanks,
Dawghouse
 
Today’s video!



FWIW I really enjoyed this one - the EQ felt just right, really musical. I had some contact with Jamie from Booya! and he was great to deal with, a top bloke.

Glad to see ReVolt Bass in the mix - looking forward to watching this and if you need a direct contact to Two notes, drop me a DM and we can exchange emails! :)

I’m looking forward to it too - with having acquired so many preamps in a fairly short amount of time I haven’t had a heap of time with each pedal individually, as is the case with the ReVolt. I was really impressed in the short test I did when purchasing it, and look forward to doing a deep dive.

Awesome! Sounds great! If you need anything from my side, let me know!
 
New video drops at 5PM AWST! In the meantime, here’s this week’s acquisitions.
