Finally found a 5 string I'm going to keep. Sire M2 5 String.

Finally found a 5 string I'm going to keep. Sire M2 5 String.

I've purchased 3 other 5 string basses before from a cheap LTD PJ bass to an Ibanez BTB745 (which i really wanted to like) but there would be playability issues with all 3 that had me return them. Recently got a Sire V5R and was impressed by the quality for price so thought I'd give another 5er a go (and this time with a 35" scale!) and landed on this. So far it plays and sounds amazing right out of the box. I may need to raise the high side of the pickups a smidge, but other than that, it's damn near perfect.

NPD: EHX Stereo Electric Mistress Flanger/Chorus

Just got this guy in today after finding a great deal on a used one on ebay even though it arrived seemingly sealed in a plastic bag with instructions/warranty info within the original box along with the power supply. It sounds so much better than the joyo chorus I was using and ive actually never had a Flanger pedal before so it'll be fun experimenting with some different sounds. Also will play some The Cure songs obviously

Want to hear some opinions on Reverb/Delay combo pedals.

I'm looking to improve my board bit by bit and my most recent endeavor in an attempt to do this is to look for a good sounding Reverb and Delay combined into one pedal. Currently I have that Soniccake Levitate pedal, but I'm already getting tired of it. In my preliminary search, I saw the Keeley Caverns v2 pedal and the EQD Dispatch Master. They're about at the top of what I was hoping to spend, but if other good Reverb/delay pedals have come along, please feel free to give your opinions!

Thanks in advance!

NPD: TC Electronic Choka Tremolo

Have been wanting a decent tremolo pedal for a bit, but i also wasn't looking for anything too in depth so imagine my surprise when I see that somehow I have a $30 off reward from Guitar Center and saw these pedals were about $32 so after paying $7 after the coupon and waiting a few days I got this guy. So far i really dig the warm sound of the tremolo compared to some other pedals I've had in the past. Glad to have found out about this pedal. They have another tremolo around the same price, but I liked the sound of the Choka better.

NPD! Earthquaker Devices Sunn O))) Life Pedal

I always loved the Rat distortion pedal so when I heard the Life Pedal, I thought it sounded like the ultimate version of what I wanted a Rat to be so I had to have it. I'm not even familiar with the artist(s) Sunn O))), but the Pedal sounds heavenly in a super saturated, sludgey way. Also as a bonus I finally got myself a decent power supply for my pedals so I can get rid of my sketchy Joyo one that is getting way too noisy for a supposed "isolated" power supply.
