Amazing noiseless powerful and punchy pickups

I previously had a set of tone rider p bass pickups in my 1979 vantage vs650b which were a bit meh sounded flat and buzzy as heck but these are like changing the quality from 240p up to 4k these sound good with anything on them as I play stuff that ranges quite far from super overdriven stuff like royal blood to more twangy stuff like primus and these don't disappoint anywhere

Preferred Settings + Usage:

FULL VOLUME FULL TOKE - FOR DISTORTION FULL VOLUME NO TONE - FOR SMOOTH BUTTERY SOUNDS

Such Distinct Style And Tone

This was the first bass I ever got and through our buying and selling numerous basses this is still the standout best bass I've owned, due to its luthite body it provides a truly unique warm tone that I've not found through wooden basses that paired with the pair of pick ups including a DFR-N5 and piezo mounted in the bridge of the bass this bass has a versatile sound, and I've not seen something that looks so weird but also sleek makes this a bass that you need to try and get in your collection

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Whack everything on full

Great first guitar

I mainly bought this thing so I can write guitar parts for songs I'm creating meaning I can get my ideas into notes much easier than getting a friend to do it for me, and as I got mine second hand it has had a p90 slapped into the neck pickup spot which suits my style of tone I like to go for much more than the standard as it is much thicker, of course the iconic looks of a tele is a pro and yeah this thing is a good solid piece of kit

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Whack it on the p90 (if you've got one fitted) tone down volume up chuck it through a flanger

Comfiest strap I've ever used

I have the white version of this strap with blue and red stripes and it is the most comfy and best quality of life purchase I've made for when I'm playing and practicing, the built in pick holder helps me not loose picks at the usual rate I do and due to its alcantara upholstery on the underside it significantly decreased the neck dive of my vantage vs650b which is quite a headstock heavy thing, also it's made of vegan leather so good for the environment I guess and it's just a nice looking strap very eye catching, it also never falls out of the height you want it as it uses 2 chrome screws and a small bracket to hold it up proper quality

Decent lil practice amp

I have this in my practice set up in my room certainly not something I would use for anything bigger but it's a solid choice at having in a house as it doesn't shake everything off the walls like a bigger amp would, a nice clear sound with plenty of tone options can't go wrong with boss, run this with my boss me50 guitar board and makes a good combo

Punchy lil monitor

I use this to run my bases through for when I'm practicing and have used it to play drums through when rehearsing with my band, it delivers a clear and crisp tone which doesn't lean either way towards bassy or treble but I do believe that a bass sounds better through it than a guitar pair this with a cheeky lil multi effects and it's the perfect man cave or practice amp which can be used for any instrument

I'm not a sound engineer

I have absolutely no clue how this thing is leant to work and honestly I can't be bothered to read to 200 something page size 3 font instructions but from what I have used of it, it seems to be a versatile and good sound deal for either personal home studio use with a bit of knowledge Its something that could stronger benefit a home writing musician

Preferred Settings + Usage:

I ain't got a clue

Extremely versatile and vibrant sounding board

I love me a good multi FX and this one certainly is no exception has an absurd amount of boss pedals on it, with a full sized pedal which can be assigned many uses and 3 separate pedals for controlling distortion delay and mod, picked mine up for 40 quid of gumtree and have not regretted my purchase once perfect for guitar and also bass

Preferred Settings + Usage:

The flanger on guitar and bass is so thick and a solid sound, as well as the big muff and metal distortions being my go to

Stunning little multi FX

I picked up one of these for about 40 quid and have not regretted that purchase once, from its retro pedal styling to the vast amount of chunky heavy and wierd sounds you get out this charming lil box, I like to pair it with an overdrive and that's where it comes into its own as the addition of this completely changes every sound giving it a whole other level of tones to play with, any of the sounds can be very similar so takes quite a lot of combing through to find the sound you want

Preferred Settings + Usage:

53 with an overdrive gives heavy royal blood vibes

Great bass thick chunky tone

The aggression you get out of the pickups on these is chunky and growly as a p bass should be feels smooth and stylish to play only downsides I would give it is that it has quite a lot of neck dive from such a long neck and shorter body

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Like to have tone rolled back and chuck it through a muddy chorus for a slightly synthy dig and low thud
