  1. Past hour
  2. Ivwas going to keep this, but literally no room on the pedalboard.
  3. Matt has just helped me out with some parts for a broken machine head. I’d speculatively posted in the wanted section looking for a little screw, which he just happened to have. However, he also mentioned he’d had one where the screw had sheared off and when I checked mine, the threaded part of the screw was indeed sheared off and embedded in the capstan post, which he also happened to have. He sent exactly what I needed and this has saved me a whole load of trouble in the process. What a legend he is and a shining example of the generous spirit that is the Basschat community.
  4. Up for sale is a pedal that's been a staple sound on my board for a long time. The Emma Okto Nojs is a very dirty/synthy pedal, and a whole plethora of synth tones can be had with this! Just add filter and Analog synth heaven. It's two pedals in one Octave - this is a very deep and plummy octave, it has a filter, so can go very deep to buzzy like a sawtooth wave, it does the OC2 thing well. It tracks very well, and has the internal "bass" setting, which i think helps a bit more. Fuzz- this Fuzz is in two parts, the first is a very dynamic synth Fuzz, with a subtle octave up sound as you play higher up. This sounds very similar to the 3 leaf you're Doom currently going for tons of money online, great for Moog like tones. It also has a fuzzy square wave tone an octave down, with a volume and colour (tone) so it can be used alone or in conjunction with the normal Fuzz sound. When Fuzz and octave are switched on together, they run in parallel for a cleaner more dynamic synth tones. It's in fantastic condition, with a pretty blue Octopuss orgy on the front, and with the original box. £100 incl UK only delivery
  5. So @neepheid time spent away from desk is money lost that he cannot spend satisfying GAS
  6. 'Deviant Drums', free edition...It will run in the free Kontakt 8 player: Deviant Drums FREE Edition – Chaos Tones
  7. The Mesa Subway D800 is a rare amp, made in the USA and capable of 800 watts into 4 or 2 ohms (you select 2 ohms via a switch). It has all the power you need, is lightweight and capable of some lovey sounds via the voicing control. The EQ frequencies are just right and The Deep switch is more usable than on any amp I have used, so why am I selling? I need some money and this will bring in more than my other amps. It comes complete with the flight case shown, as well as a power cable and speakON lead. This amp is £1100 new. What else can I say? The switches and pots all have a feel of quality, and you can see at a glance whether you are muted, have DEEP selected or have selected the active/passive option by the LEDs above the switches. I bought this some months ago from a fellow bass chatter, and I am selling at the price he asked of me. If you would like any more pictures of have any questions, please let me know. Collection preferred, but I expect postage and packing to be about £15. I will charge P&P at cost price. Mesa say of the D800: PURE MESA BLOODLINE COMPACT POWER - At only 5.5 lbs (2.5Kg)., a little over 3 inches tall and 10 inches wide the Subway delivers 800 Watts of power to command any venue from a small club to a large concert stage, yet fits in the pocket of your gig bag! Built around a combination of signature circuits ranging from our classic tube models like the vintage Bass 400+™ and more recent Bass Strategy™ 8:88™, to the MOSFET powered accuracy and mid-focused definition of the Big Block™ 750 and M9 Carbine™ the new SUBWAY D-800 embodies the best qualities from the entire MESA Bass lineage and unveils a unique new voice all its own. CONTROL OVER POWER MUTE AND ACTIVE/PASSIVE switch allows you to tailor the input headroom to your instrument. The MUTE switch silences the signal from the INPUT jack to the SPEAKER output, HEADPHONE output and DI output for silent tuning. Tone shaping in the SUBWAY D-800 begins with the Front Panel INPUT section, which is comprised of the INPUT jack and two switches; a MUTE and an ACTIVE/PASSIVE switch for tailoring the input headroom to your instrument. The MUTE switch silences the signal from the INPUT jack to the SPEAKER output, HEADPHONE output and DI output for silent tuning. Convenient Indicator LEDs are provided on the right side of the Front Panel for all switched functions. DEEPER STILL Still not enough bottom you say… we listen and obey. For all those who need that extra huge Tone, we’ve included a DEEP switch that further enhances low end and puts an unmistakable sub-low component into the mix. 4-BAND EQ Further Tone shaping is handled by our 4-Band Fixed, Rotary EQ Section comprised of BASS, LOW MID, HIGH MID and TREBLE Controls. While the BASS and TREBLE controls deliver sweet, musically useful regions of low end fundamental and top end clarity, it’s the two powerful overlapping MID Bands that allow pinpoint accuracy when sculpting the important attack region and body of your Tone. LOW MID fills in the higher bottom end and determines fullness and bloom, while the HIGH MID helps you define how your sound tracks with the drums and where you want to sit in the mix. With these four controls as your foundation and the VOICING control as the finishing touch, or even vice versa, any sound you desire is only a quick twist away. FIND YOUR VOICE While VOICE controls have appeared on several MESA Bass designs, here on the SUBWAY D-800, we opted for a continuously variable rendering that allows fine-tuning of your sound from a more “flat” response to a radically scooped midrange sound with the lows and highs boosted. This sweep-able version of the VOICING control allows near infinite shaping and let’s you decide the degree of “sauce” that’s right for your individual Bass and musical style. CONNECTIVITY Pro features are abundant on the D-800 Rear Panel and all of your interfacing needs are provided for here. SPEAKON SPEAKER OUTPUT jacks allow sturdy connection to the enclosure of your choice. An IMPEDANCE switch allows you to optimize the SUBWAY’s mighty output power for a variety of speaker configurations and wiring schemes. Regardless of your impedance requirements, the SUBWAY delivers its authoritative power and great Tone in full measure. PRACTICE PRIVATELY, PLAY PRIVATELY. OUTPUT FOR ALL DIRECT OUTPUT - A standard XLR D.I. OUTPUT provides switching for pre/post routing, mic or line level output and a ground switch to aid in curing ground noise problems when interfacing with other gear. A HEADPHONES OUTPUT is provided so you can enjoy the SUBWAY’s great sound without disturbing others. Further inspiration is available for solo enjoyment by connecting pre-recorded music, a sequencer or a drum machine to the AUX Input and playing to accompaniment while using headphones. A comprehensive DIRECT OUTPUT section is included in the SUBWAY’s platform so you can share your Tone with the world of recording and/or reinforcement and provides a full set of options for your D.I. needs. The standard MALE 3-Pin XLR is controlled via 3 mini toggles that determine both SOURCE (PRE or POST) and LEVEL (MIC or LINE) as well as a PIN 1 LIFT option on the XLR to aid in curing Ground noise problems when interfacing with Consoles of all types.
  8. Oh well..... Up for sale is my recently acquired Markbass combo. I bought this only a few weeks ago and used it for one gig and a couple of rehearsals. Very happy with it, plenty of power as a stand alone without the use of an extension speaker. I did take one but it was not required. It got me thinking about downsizing my amplification but as none of my other Markbass cabs are moving my hand is forced to try to move this on. It's in super condition and comes with the cover. Should my other listed stuff sell, I'll be keeping it. Collection from St Helens Merseyside or possible meet up if not too far. No trades or offers please.

  9. You're joking, Leominster's in a different time zone to me never mind Cardiff. 🤣

    So sad to hear of Terri's passing, we had many exchanges of 'banter' in the early years and though I never met her, she seemed a lovely person. Condolences to @Tinman and all those around him. R.I.P. @Mrs Tinman
  11. Cheap to clear, never used, brand new, checked working 100%. great for all sorts of things, comes with jack adapters as well so you can use them as i do as AUX out of the desk to your stage monitor, wireless monitoring.... cool ! i have 2 pairs to go this is for just one pair, let me know if your after both pairs can post for £4.90 first class royal mail.
  12. Postmodern classic - love it
  13. ….and of course if you installed a pair of Dimarzio model Ps in there the adjustable pole pieces would have it covered anyway 👍
  14. Been going through this by Burning Spear today, I’ve got all the notes but keep drifting ahead of the beat and need to slow it down
  15. Could i be curious and ask what you ordered
  16. Good call, but I'd suggest trying the Sadowsky preamp pedal. I have one and it's the more flexible option.

    Yes, she was always so positive and upbeat. And their double-act was a proper laugh. Oh god, poor Pete. I can't begin to imagine how he must be feeling.
  18. Today
  19. Hi all, Here we have my Fernandes Gravity 5x. Bought last year as a back up to my Warwick, but now being sold as I'm trying to move away from 5s and am looking for a different sound. There's not a lot of info out there about these, as they seem to be quite uncommon. It dates from 2008 and is made in China. Twin single coil pickups with vol, vol, tone. Simple as it gets. Tonally it's got a quite aggressive sound, the twin Jazz pickups are really high output, with a really punchy sound. You'll note the front pickup is moved towards the bridge compared to the usual J/J set ups, definitely gives it a funkier, mid-rangey sound. The tone pot is effective all the way round, giving a wide sweep of different tones (and a really funky rear pickup sound). B-string was the biggest surprise for me on this bass. It's very taught and defined, better than many other basses I've had at 4/5x the price. It's in 9/10 condition. It recently had a brand new input jack installed and plays very cleanly across all frets. A nice first foray into a 5 string for someone, or a great reliable, good sounding backup. Weight is a lovely 3.9 kg. Collection from Moreton in Marsh, which is located on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire/Warwickshire border. Will happily meet up within an hour's drive for handover, or a bit further for a small petrol contribution (purely due to the low cost of the bass). Thanks for looking!
  20. Thanks - I was mainly interested in the process and how the order comes out. Let me know what you think when it arrives
  21. Thanks for your comments-yes a truly beautiful looking and sounding bass.
  22. Anyone here play Eton Rifles regularly? I play quite a few fairly challenging songs with my band but for some reason I am struggling with the bass run in the verse from the D to the high E on the G string, sometimes I play it really cleanly and other times it's a bit sloppy, it's a bit hit and miss as to if I play that part cleanly with no slop or fret noise, any tips?

    And it's me and my limited abilities not the setup of my bass
