I’m glad it’s coming back; it’s a lovely pedal. With Dan Coggin’s involvement at Thorpy I’ve been hoping for something like this for a while.

Harvest Moon - Neil Young Midnight Rider - The Allman Brothers

No idea, but they definitely used tracing paper for the logo!

Looks really nice, love the colour scheme

Mazzy Star - Fade Into You

Any song is open to rearrangement.

Last night was my one and only rehearsal with the band I'm depping with on Saturday. It's my second gig with them and they have several new songs in the list that I've had to learn from scratch. Saturday's gig is at a new venue that they're hoping to add to their growing list of regulars and is, apparently, sold out. So no pressure on me to perform and maintain their well deserved reputation. 😂 They are a very tight band and the rehearsals are hard work without being unpleasant. I like that and it's something I haven't experienced for a few years. I left after 3.5 hours last night feeling that I'd worked hard, performed well and that we'd got any minor issues sorted. Sterling 34HH into the board MS60b with noisegate and tuner and for one song a nice synth patch > Sculpture compressor > Voodoo Vibe > Ampeg SCRDI > HPF > FX return of the a Peavey Minimax > 2x 1x10" TE cabs. Plus I was DI'd into their PA which they requested. On the night, with an added bass bin to the PA, I may only use on TE speaker as a backline monitor.

These look like basses someone will get a lifetimes' worth of pleasure from playing. Just a really nice old-school Stingray, so much fun to be had with that. Three and a half grand-ish is a lot of money, but these basses look pretty good value to me in the current market. A Stingray Special in a nice finish is now over 3k, and compared to Fender Custom Shop basses these EBMM Pino basses are a veritable bargain.

The final and true test of an abstainer’s mettle. 😬

Do you think they bought one and traced it themselves or just used Aion FX's or someone on freestompboxes trace?!

Interesting! I'd have thought it'd be loud as hell - shows what I know 🤣 I was thinking of Paul Jackson's bass Geraldine: http://www.pauljacksonbass.com/geraldine/ - has output per string I'm sorry about talk bass, but glad we have BC!

Thanks this is just what I was looking for, it fulfills the 'Christmas Present' part of the brief in looking more satisfying than a set of 'wires' and being in just about the right price range. The little diamond files from Ali Express are what I would buy myself for a one off job so many thanks to @kodiakblair and @tauzero for their advice too. Let's see what Santa brings

That's great - thanks Silky 👍

Dan Coggins, the original Lovetone man is involved with thorpyfx on this so very much live
