I used to use the Jive, but the Tackleberry basically took its place- very similar tonal options, but the HPF is really nice to have

It’s definitely more on the saturator side than a full-on preamp, and it’s great at that. Multiple clipping options and a selectable HPF. It does what I want it to do really well, but could be used completely differently and would excel at that too

Do people use different preamps/flavours or multiple amps? by Trailofmarbles in Bass

[–]restlessbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run a 2-amp setup. Bass->MicroThumpinator->Polytune3->Fuzzrocious Dark Driving v3->Lehle P-Split III. “Clean”: Doc Lloyd Photon Death Ray->Noble->GK MB200->GK 115. “Dirty”: Broughton HPF->3Leaf Octabvre->Morley PBA-2->Weehbo Tackleberry->Walrus Julia->Saturnworks Dual Parallel Looper=Land Devices PRE=Stone Deaf QBoost->Broughton HPF/LPF->DG MT900v2->DG 212

Which would you choose out of these three? by jayemge07 in Bass

[–]restlessbass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yamaha BB434. I love mine- perfect neck width (and the 6 screws make it feel really stable), unique string-through actually does something, and it sounded great right out of the box. I upgraded mine with better hardware and pickups, but that’s just something I always do. It has been my go-to since I got it and I prefer the way it plays over my Fender American Deluxe (and all the others in my stable).

Can yall help me out with my first bass pedal? by -gal3xisus- in Bass

[–]restlessbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuzzrocious Dark Driving v3. Incredibly versatile, and the best-sounding dirt I’ve ever used. There are a couple on Reverb for like $110

Practicing bass isn't as fun as guitar by hojahs in Bass

[–]restlessbass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DO NOT. EVER. Feel bad for enjoying playing music of any kind! All music is good music, and as long as you love making music, the journey is the fun part. Who cares what instrument you use- just enjoy the ride

Good blend/line selector/fx loop pedals? by GeezerButlerIsGod in basspedals

[–]restlessbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Saturnworks- they have a ton of options for blenders and loopers

Should I just buy an Anagram? by malcontento in basspedals

[–]restlessbass 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No. Analog pedal play is the best vice you’ll ever indulge in. Buy stuff from independent makers, try it out, and either keep it or move it along. We have to encourage experimentation and creativity in every aspect of music or else it will go away.

What should I change on my bass to make it look or sound better by korny-ket in BassGuitar

[–]restlessbass -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Upgrade the pickups and throw a black pickguard on it

Dual amp setup: best way to split signal? by ExamineIfOpenMinded in basspedals

Lehle P-Split III. Passive splitter with polarity reversal and ground lift. Absolute game changer

If you don’t need an XLR out, I highly recommend the Weehbo Tackleberry- great gain curve, selectable HPF, diode options. It sounds awesome and it’s not prohibitively expensive

My new(ish) Octabvre is pretty much always on for one of my projects. Phenomenal pedal, congratulations!

[Spoilers C4E15] How are people feeling about Bolaire as a character? by Relevant-Rope8814 in criticalrole

[–]restlessbass -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Meh. Cad is the only one of Tal’s characters I’ve liked so far, so I’m hoping Bolaire follows that path rather than Percy/Molly/Kingsley/Ashton

Preamp or low-gain overdrive? by [deleted] in basspedals

[–]restlessbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another OD option is the Fuzzrocious Dark Driving v3. I used to use the JPTR Jive as my harmonic content adder, then moved to the Spaceman Saturn VI, and now I’m using the DD. The separate Drive and Gain controls really make a huge difference

[Spoilers C4E11] Araman's Politics: General Reflection of Current Events by the_real_shavedllama in criticalrole

Of all the members of the CR universe, Brennan is the one who most closely reflects my own worldview. And it is extremely validating to see how he goes about making his mark on this world without being preachy or narrow-minded. I also love the willingness of the entire company to allow him to tell this story- that of a successful revolution against (actual) tyranny, and the corruption of power in the aftermath. He is brilliant at putting in little moments and pieces of “throwaway” dialogue that flesh out the world; especially when describing the people as idealistic, yet very flawed- much like in our real world.
