Stop, you are going to get me in trouble.
I still need to get that P body off you when you are out this way, but once I sell a few, I think a G&L is on the horizon.
The bridges and pick ups are just so freaking cool, and unique to G&L

Love it John.
I must say I like the P bass body Aerodynes to the Jazz bass ones, but to each their own.

Well that should be me future proofed. 
Pedalboard PSU upgraded from a rechargable Pedaltrain Volto (9v only) to the Cioks DC7 which gives me 9,12,15,18v options plus USB.

I just got one of those too. I was using a DC5 but my pedal collection got too big for it.

The DC7 is overkill for me (at the moment) but it has USB power out that lets me power the G10 relay.
Most power supplies, including the DC5 don’t have that.
I love the way they include a template for drilling the holes in your pedalboard, it makes mounting the PSU neatly a quick and trivial job.

I may not be the greatest bassist in the world, but I’m perfectly in tune! 
The nice thing about the Strobostomp is that while it has a gazillion features to explore, you can still just plug it in and tune. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the concept of “sweetened tunings.”
At the other end of the economic spectrum is my new Behringer BDI 21, which continues the Behringer tradition of producing shameless knock-offs of classic gear that actually work pretty well and selling them at a fraction of the price of said gear.
It does a nice job of emulating an SVT while also providing me with a DI out that I can run into my DAI.

That Strobostomp is the the best tuner hands down

Yeah really love Peterson products.
Nice call on the BDI-21 too, one of the biggest values in music.

yeah, still a pretty impressive little piece of gear. I don’t use mine anymore but I really want to keep it, it’s a true classic.

Its funny that the tuner cost almost 4 times as much as the BDI. 
Great pedals!

Yeah, the BDI is almost free and sounds exactly like the $150 first-gen Sansamp it is a clone of 
Behringer is great for that.

hey john, i know it was a little while ago but let us know what you think of them. i’m strongly considering putting those on my little ibby mikro.
edit. oh duh, never mind. i should have kept reading. they sound like nice pups

yeah, they are cool, but I would say more specific a tone than an all around workhorse.
I like having the variety. I wouldn’t want them on my ‘only bass’, but glad they are in the mix.

Got up early this morning and played some bass before work. And I really miss my Stream.
So, ordered a new set of strings for it, D’addario XT 45-100
Relatively new string, like an NYXL but warmer. Make my 3 top basses my Dark Queen, my fat bottomed girl (the Schecter), and my Stream
Also looking for a distortion pedal. Working on Elephant by Tame Impala on the FBG and it needs distortion. Any recommendations?

Yep - listen to them all. Haha
They are all surely different (like fuzz) and to me a personal preference thing. I’ve got a Gamechanger Plasma but it’s like steroidal distortion so fairly specific.

That’s a cool sound, not a heavy distortion, just a tight overdrive.
Makes me think of a RAT at low gain.
