Review: Works well with no added noise. - Works as a compressor well, it is quite subtle so dose not sustain notes much longer so may not suit everyone. Very good for professional band use.
Review: Excellent pedal. The only bit of sound processing that ... - Excellent pedal. The only bit of sound processing that I really use on my electric bass. Very high quality compression and sustain as you would expect at this price, what I enjoy most is that it really brings any ghosted notes in your lines to life. Don't make the schoolboy error that I made however and leave it plugged in between sound check and dinner as it eats 9v batteries very quickly! Get an adapter if you are going to buy this fantastic piece of kit.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi, is this ok with a passive fender?  I'm a newbie bassist,  thank you :)**
A: Personally, I cut the signal from my active basses to match my passives.  The most important part of my board is the Electroharmonix Hum de-bugger.  I work round that.  If I chopped off the top instead, it wouldn't be an issue.  I also use the new Electroharmonix bass preacher.  The soul preacher is probably OK for your Fender.
As I play mainly 35" 5 string with dropshots, it is always a battle to control overloads from the B and E.  I split my signal and lightly compress this bottom end.
I keep it clean until I need otherwise.  It works for how I use it.
I also Tick Tack with a Baritone  through the same rig.  The full Duane Eddy.  He used the baritone version of the Danelectro (hardboard) Longhorn bass (the lipstick pickups are unique for the twang) and the flash Gretch on stage.  Regrettably, sustain and compression pedals, although similar in principle don't quite work out like that.
Look to Northwood Hills for your specialist / boutique pedals and power supplies.  Next to the Met line station.
Enjoy trouser flapping goodness from your rig.  You are at war.  Your lead guitar needs to fear your power.
Remember, the bass player needs to be a bands proper musician.  A reader, fully understanding chords and harmony as well as rhythms.
Can you sight read Hymn book bass lines and identify all the chords and their inversions.
The lead wails, the front man struts and drummers are only partly human.  Find a good keyboard player and pair up.
Finger pads with the left hand and learn how to damp your strings with your right hand as you play.  This is difficult.
As with harpists, your tone will become cleaner and brighter as the RH  fingers harden up.
Don't be afraid to use round or compressed wound strings for brighter slap bottoms with grounds or even flats for the top.  Popping is very toppy.
Taper Bs and Es are easier to intonate.  Have you a note / frequency chart?  You will need it.  Dropped Bs are in the realms of lowest organ notes.
Hope this helps.  Try not to go too deaf.



Look to Barefaced Bass for your cabs.  The alternative needs tame bodybuilders.
