These are really sensational sounding basses, and very versatile too. This one's a beauty, GLWTS/T !

MARSHALL BB-2 Not to be confused with the original Bluesbreaker pedal, which was essentially a preamp-in-a-box - this is a dedicated, dual-mode overdrive pedal. "Boost" mode is a transparent-sounding clean boost, designed to push the front end of your amp harder, while "Blues" mode gives a much more shaped (and saturated!) tone, reminiscent of the original Bluesbreaker amps being dimed. I bought this pedal back in something like 2010. It was my main distortion effect for a while, and did a handful of gigs with me, but as I've experimented with new effects and different amps, I find myself using it less and less. I still have the original box and user's manual, which are a little worn in places (see pictures); the pedal itself is in excellent condition. Only one thing: the controls originally had black position indicators painted on them, which have mostly rubbed off over the years. Up to you whether you leave them as is, or paint some new ones on! Price includes postage to mainland UK. If you'd like it sent to a different country, drop me a PM. Open to sensible offers!

An absolute bargain to be had by someone here - I bought this very recently off another Basschatter and so I am just selling it for what I paid but I could easily have added £100 to the price and it would still have been worth it I think. These have legendary status, and justifiably so! It’s a 3 channel EQ with parametric mids, a bright switch, a colour switch and also a knob to control the amount of colour (essentially a very sweet tube OD) there is also a boost mode but I haven’t really used it. There’s 1/4 out and also DI out, it does a beautiful clean sound - so fat and warm with amazing clarity, and in colour ‘mode’ you can have as much or little of the saturation as you want to dial in. If you already know what this is I don’t have to sell it to you - if you don’t then give them a Google and have a look at TalkBass etc and you’ll see how highly regarded they are. I wish I could keep it but I’m skint and having a bit of a cull! Comes with two brand new spare tubes too! Grab an absolute bargain - £55 shipped!

Lost my motivation...

For sale is my IK Amplitube Tonex Pedal - this is the full version which includes the Tonex Max software. This has amp & cab captures (rather than models) of very high quality, and there is access to thousands of user generated captures via Tone.net, Also recently there is a new “bass edition” pack out which came out with the mini Tonex one pedal which is available to purchase separately for this model This is a super high quality amp capture pedal - there thousand of different amps with all different types of gain stage, it also has modulation, compresser and tuner as well. This cost £399 new - this is a bargain at £130 shipped - it will come with new product codes from IK Multimedia to register it as a new pedal, and it’ll be all de-registered at my end Pedal is in good condition, it’s had some gigs but no dents or cracks - runs off any 9v power supply, only issue is I’ve lost/used the box! I have sleeve from the outside of the box which I’ll send, but I don’t have the physical box (it was plain anyway I think, with the sleeve around it having all the writing etc on) I have factored this into the price. It’s a really great bit of gear that I’m not using much as I’ve slimmed my main board right down, and it’s the time of year where finances start to bite a bit, so as always I’m letting It go to a Basschatter for a very good price I think - you won’t get much better in terms of capture quality and if you’ve always been on the fence about giving Tonex a go, this is the perfect chance without forking 400 notes out! Price is £130 shipped

Sire P7 Antique White. These basses are great value for the money with features you'd expect from a much more expensive basses. The previous owner replaced the original knobs with chunkier versions and lightly sanded the neck so it now has a nice satin feel to it. Collection preferred but I could possibly source some packing materials if you're prepared to arrange your own courier.

Line 6 Pod Express Bass Pedal No velcro on the bottom, only used a handful of times. Great little unit with some very useable effects and preamps. Has a built in tuner and can be used for home practice with the headphone out facility. Excellent condition. No PSU or USB cable.

Up for sale - an Electro Harmonix 24v Bass MicroSynth. Full of analog goodness. Not just good - good for you!! If you're looking at this, you know what it does. Definitely leagues better sounding, and feeling, than the smaller 9V versions. Hard to put a price on this - some insane £900+ prices on eBay. Quite a few in the £600-800 range. I think £325 plus postage is more sensible.

For sale is my Master Effects Super 800+ Preamp/DI, it comes in the original box and is in ‘as new’ condition. These are handmade in Canada and can only be bought directly from Master Effects, I paid £210 for the pedal, £55 delivery and about £50 in duties/fees etc so you’re looking at over £300 to go and get on along with a 3+ week wait. The pedal itself is in a very solid metal enclosure and the quality of it is excellent The preamp itself is an excellent recreation of the Gallien Kreuger GK800RB amp, it has a 4 band EQ, gain, master volume and 3 contour switches - low cut (this is mainly used when going to the very high gain settings sith the boost engaged to get the “Rails” tone - allows you to go very high gain without the bass frequencies being overwhelming) mid contour (mid scoop with slight boost of lows & highs) which is a very nice funk/slap tone and high boost (boost of frequencies over 1khz adding ‘presence’ and definition). It runs off any normal 9v power supply - no special high output requirements or anything like that The boost function is a second gain stage which I think is after the preamp/eq - I think that’s what it is anyway! But what it does is basically recreates the famous “Rails” tone made famous in the 80’s & 90’s - you can dial in just a bit so you have a nice biting clean tone with a touch of hair to it so it cuts through the mix, all the way to HIGH gain which sound absolutely epic, and in conjunction with the low cut, isn’t ‘too much’ at all - it really does sound good I’ve had the original GK Plex preamp and a couple of others and this is far and away the best one of the lot, however needs must at this time of year, I’ve got things to buy and I’m using the GK amp sim on my stomp now and running a very small pedalboard on a nano+ and although it’s nowhere near as good as this, it does the job for now, and finances don’t allow me to keep unfortunately as I’ve got bills to pay and Xmas to sort! I am selling this for a very good price as I need a quick sale - this is an absolutely fantastic sounding preamp, genuinely A+ with the added boost function meaning you have the GK Rails flavoured OD on tap as well Price is £150 shipped! (This is less than half what it cost me to import it from Canada in October!) Grab a real bargain Video Demo👇(Demo is of the Super800, not the 800+ which I’m selling here - the sound is the same, but on the 800+ you have a footswitch for the ‘Boost’ function which is where you can get the famous ‘Rails’ tone)
