As an alternative to Stellartone, there are one or two suppliers of fixed, or custom made varitone switches. I have an Artec badged item I put in my Guild Starfire and I have had one made by My Humble Workshop https://www.myhumbleworkshop.com/ (also on FleaBay) that I used to replace the push button tone controls in my Nordstrand Acinonyx. The latter is the best option IMO, if you have the room to get it in your control cavity.

We control all scene changes with midi via Ableton. Though the WIDI is currently misbehaving, so I’m running a cable to our rack.
-
What do you connect with Widi Jack? Have some midi switcher?

Man I have the same Anker battery, it's great now you are giving me an idea!

I used to use the Cali76, HX Stomp and Capo board. Now I take the Anagram and a Tuner. And the tuner is not really needed, but I also mix my IEM through the Anagram so I prefer to have a separate mute function

This was discussed a lot on a recent thread. I made a point that is largely ignored but that I still think is relevant: TLDR version: the lower the amp power for a given volume requirement, the more speaker you need. So an Elf is more than you'd ever need into a 2x12. But the smallest possible setup will want a power amp whose power is limited only by the thermal and excursion capabilities of the best high-powered drivers. Long version with example: If your ultimate goal is the whole rig including speaker cab being as small and light and loud as possible, the best way to achieve this is a premium driver being pushed near its (reasonable long-term) limit. That usually means a single-driver of either 10 or 12", with a power handling between 400 and 600w RMS, because that's what top-end drivers are capable of nowadays. And mostly they're 8 ohms. If you drive something like a Monza (probably the best single 10 cab on the market) with a 200w/4ohm amp, you'll be driving it with ~130w at max output (8ohm). Meanwhile that driver will take 600w AES and has very high xlim, so you're probably near 5dB off its true capability which is a significant amount. You could make this up by adding a second cab/driver (+6dB at the low end), or by using a higher powered amp. Now it might be that one cab is loud enough, and indeed the Monza is likely pretty good in that respect because it's relatively large for a single 10" cab which buys you more volume in the power-hungry bottom octave. But it might not as the efficiency of this otherwise exceptional cab is pretty standard for a 1x10. Or indeed you could make an even smaller, lighter (no comp driver/horn, lose 10-15l volume) cab with an equivalent driver and make up for that low-end volume loss by driving it harder. The difference in weight and size between 200w and 800w class D amp is modest, maybe 1kg at most and a few cm either way. Adding a second cab or even just a second driver adds a lot more volume and weight than that. You pays yer money etc.

Beautiful condition 2001 Fender 5-string Jazz (MIM) in Midnight Wine (like a darker Candy Apple Red) with a replacement black pickguard. Strap pins are Schaller, but straplocks not supplied. Weight is around 4.6kg, and is nicely balanced (no neck dive). Note that this is passive, not the more common active MIM 5-string model. There are no discernable dings anywhere on it, and only a little play wear at the top of the pickguard. Lovely setup and action, with a new set of Elixir strings. Comes with the original (white) pickguard (virtually unused) and a Gator ABS hard case. These don’t appear often, so pricing is difficult but I’m hoping £525 (including postage) isn’t unreasonable. -
Looking to trade my Barefaced Three10 in excellent used condition. I am the second owner. Complete with original barefaced cover. Especially interested in a barefaced supertwin t in similar condition, or a barefaced BB3 Photos to follow -

Exactly. Line up all the effects I use and hide the ones I don't via the software, and then scroll through them on the footswitch. So much quicker! -
Downsizing my various rig combinations and going more analogue in keeping with my advancing years !!!!!

Seemed safe from losing my job but that’s firmly in sight again so reduced to £1900. -
Yes no problem -
I had a Varitone on a (righty) Ibanez ST924 I was given by a client. It was much like the Tonestyler mentioned several times above, as it switches between various capacitor / resistor values (I don't know a thing about electronics) and doesn't function as a regular treble rolloff. I thought it was incredibly useful on that bass, and had a LOT of impact. That bass has a regular passive tone control too, and combined the range of sonic possibilities was ginormous. Wonderful bass! It now lives with my (righty) guitarist, who's very happy with it and uses it in his band with other teachers at the school he works at.

The mate booking ours is in Stratford-upon-Avon. I guess it's IP sensitive too...

Ah, very cool. Gets way more out of that pedal I guess then.

Really? I just got two excellent seats on the side, a 1/3 of the way back for £175 each + fees.

Perhaps when the ticket sales come to 3 million pounds a gig you might think about a tech!

Limited edition only 50 made I believe, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong! Gated fuzz with two channels, channel 1 bypasses the tone pot and channel 2 includes the tone. Plus it has clean blend so you can quite a few different sounds out of it. Does that really spitty Velcro fuzz sound very well! There’s a couple of videos on YouTube showing what it can do. It’s not on my board anymore and I’ve been toying with selling it for a while now, mostly just with it being a limited run and it’s pretty cool but ultimately I just don’t use it these days and the money could be put to better use elsewhere. Annoyingly I don’t have the original box, must’ve lost it during a house move, but it will be packaged up securely. Price includes UK postage, cheers -

Hi @Noyzbite yes, still here. -
The "hole" near the attachment arm, isn't a blemish.... it's for adjusting the neck angle. I should have mentioned in my first post, that the necks on these are removable, for packing down smaller for taking on tour / air transport etc. But the beauty of the system is that you can finely adjust the neck angle to set up to your preference, and it's really quick & easy to do.
