Put the baby to bed then ducked into the basement and pulled out my bass vi I haven’t picked up in a while.

    The Helix eco system has been just the best since I bought an LT last year. The sounds are great, varied & versatile. There’s so much thought and love that’s gone in to the Helix over the years and it shows. And the new amps they keep adding sound fantastic.

    How do you like your Bass VI? I think mine is rad. Currently have it set up as a baritone guitar, and it’s still a little unwieldy, but I like it.

      I really should give it more love. I bought it after the Beatles Get Back doc came out but rarely pick it up over my reverend or jazzmaster. I was having a blast ripping the bass vi through a tube screamer>muff> twin reverb modeler to get a really raunchy bright fuzz tone. I keep it in e standard but I should play around with other tunings.

        Yeah I’m a long time bass player, got mine years ago to just have something different. Been playing guitar a lot recently and wanted to see if it would do a baritone thing. It’s got a very unique, grindy sound when you add drive. Def a lot of fun.
