Preamps, if you use one on your pedalboard is having one in your bass therefore redundant? especially if its of far lower quality?
Depends – preamp on the board is set and forget. The one on your bass is much more likely to be adjusted in the heat of battle.
In all honesty though, I would go preamp on pedal board over preamp on bass. You can use it with more instruments and get tubes etc. I like to use them as little amps in boxes.
Excellent points! My preamp pedal is essentially my amp, I go into my interface and then use torpedo's wall of sound for power amp emulation and CAB IRs

Picked myself up a Sterling Sub Ray 4 today, in lovely sea foam green, will get pics tomorrow when the light is better, neck feels really nice with the satin finish, just like the higher end EB guitars I’ve played… just need to drop the action a touch and she’ll be a runner!
Had one for a few years, it’s my main bass. Don’t ding it, the poly is an inch thick colour is the same and it’s awesome
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Going to try running my bass preamp into the effects return of my little joyo JCM800 style head, with the 8" cab I built, wonder if it will do as a basic practice rig when I can't be bothered firing up my computer to play through that...
