Let's see your Bass Rig

Getting there. View attachment 2637261 View attachment 2637258View attachment 2637393
Great clean tone from the Avalon U5 , great dirty tones out of the Darkglass Alpha/Omega and Duality. Need to upgrade my pedalboard power supply and get a backup bass (I cleaned house to buy this one) but I'm really happy with my tones right now.
Your setup reminds me of Amos' rig from TesseracT he is a big fan of the Avalon and uses a Thumb as well.
Very cool rig!:bassist:
Best regards,

Thanks yeah most of my gear was influenced by bass players I like.

Originally got into thumb basses because of Ryan Martinie

Alpha/ omega - yep I'm I big Karnivool fan.

Avalon U5 - def Amos from Tesseract.

Nova repeater - Janek GwizdalaS favorite pedal

The fuzz was a really difficult effect to find one I really liked. Problem I had was most of the players who use fuzz that I like play passive basses and it was tough to find a good fuzz that worked well with active basses. The filter on the Duality is awesome tho. Love that pedal.

Here's mine ... Quilter Bass Block 800 into an Avatar SB126 with a Kappalite 3012lf, usually with the Ibanez Portamento, but sometimes with my SBMM Ray 34 CA fretless, or my EBMM Caprice. The Carvin AG100 Is a great little 3 channel, 100 watt 1x12 combo that I use for practicing my solo stuff ... I run bass into one channel, vocal mic into another, and a little foot-stomp kick-drum simulator into the third if I'm not using the Beat Buddy.

The pedals are mostly for one band I play with ... I haven't traditionally used pedals much beyond a tuner and compressor.
