the dual RAT/OCD is ****kkkkkkkiniiinni killererererererer
I need to hear it loud tho, hear it when it cooks
you can get some really nice tight distortion sounds out of it OCD boosting RAT or just doomy tones from the RAT

How's about 132 ea. 6V6's. Class A!
Oh...and what's the status on the Bass DI design?
made the PCB but now adding some more features for Skip, a FX loop and redesigned it to run on 9-18V no switching needed
Hey that's my job!!!!
If i could I would but we have a gig tomorrow and we're practicing in the afternoon before it. If I do get a Saturday free though I'll def hit you up.
Yeah about your FX loop idea.... I kinda stole it hahahaha The other night at practice i ran out of my volume pedal (last in my usual chain) into the stereo right side of my timeline and space and my band mates pooped their panties when they heard the crazy ambient stuff i could do with it, So i figured it would be nice to have a fx loop built into the DI so i could do that all the time, and still have it run into the amp and out to FOH.

I love my Skyline Bob Glaub. the neck is really nice. i like a very low action and this bass can get too low, even for me, and not buzz. they feel really nice. the glaub's neck is a little too wide so its not as comfy as my MIJ Fender P but it's definitly higher quality and more consistent.
Thank you! The Acoustic is a 1x18. It's a thunderous combo. I actually need to get some larger feet for the amp because it wants to move around at higher volumes haha
That would be pretty kickass. They've never been my favorite, but I've always enjoyed their stuff...and I've always wanted to see them live. New album means tours, so I'm for it.
Wide, flat and low action neck is perfect for me. I have huge hands and long fingers so they actually feel alot better for me. My main gripe with fender 5 strings is the spacing is so narrow my hand feels cramped. I believe fenders are 17mm string spacing while the Laklands are 19mm.
Ancient Tone said:
Yeah the spacing took a little getting used to. not sure what it is on the Glaub but it is wider than any fender i have played. never tried a lakland 5 string though.
Gotcha, I went through something similar going from my jag bass to my franken-P. The p-bass has the wider spacing at the nut and the spacing is a lil different but i actually much prefer it.
Just saw that. I want to pull the trigger so bad that pedal is awesome. Maybe he'll trade me for my rat lol

I highly recommend the Bart's over the lakland pups if you must have a lakland. I wanted a lakland for a long time after i played one in Chicago. When I was about to drop money on a lakland I wanted to check out the new pups, they were not cool. It had a different preamp too. A lot of people liked the new pups and pre but not me. I'm kinda in the market for a 5 string and lakland isn't even on the list anymore.

SG basses are cool. i am not a fan of the LP look or sound. the colour on this one looms great though!
We did a radio interview for a station in Toronto the other day. they asked us to do the whole station ID shout-out. felt like such a hipster...
