  1. Past hour
  2. New simplified layout. Just got the Source Audio Aftershock and it sounds pretty good, it replaces 3 seperate drive pedals. Not got into the software side of it yet as I don’t have the right cable but it’s good so far.
  3. Ordered these bad lads on Sunday. Winged their way over the Atlantic from Canada in four days. What a time to be alive! Plunge Audio Dynamics. They'll get a run out next weekend...
  4. So my bass was attempted delivery today... 3 days after it should have been delivered. Had it redirected to a post office tomorrow, that I'm hoping will work out! I also had multiple delivery windows today which was also frustrating. I did a little research into the mail centre where it spent its vacation and it seems like a blackhole for parcels that go in and never come out. So I'm glad it's finally in a working system!
  5. So many great albums with great bass on them and many I'll check out. If I go right back to the start of my bass journey, Level 42 got me interested in the bass guitar but from there I remember buying three albums quite close together around '87/'88, three albums with great bass playing from the '70s. I bought Heavy Weather and Black Market by Weather Report but the one album I would listen to the most was Stanley Clarke's School Days. It's not just the title track, the whole album grabbed me by the doo doo and I would listen to it over and over again. I was into Stanley's music for a while there, it was a bit hit n miss but School Days, for a mostly instrumental album, BOOM! Just gorgeous.
  6. 2006 Squire Vintage Modified Precision Bass in Olympic White for sale - with some modifications to dress it up like a 70s P bass. I will include the Thomann gig bag with the sale. I have always wanted a 70s P, but as a mainly 5 string player I knew I wouldn't use it that much so I didn't want to commit too much cash to one. So, I found a Squire VM P bass in Olympic white which had a few dings online and then proceeded to create my own. Personally I think it looks great and it saddens me to sell it but I could do with a little cash injection right now. So, the main change is the headstock. The squire details were removed and sanded flat, some discolouration added to age the wood, a 70s decal added and then a vintage amber Nitro lacquer from NorthWest Guitars. I have flatted it back and flatted off the sheen from the back of the neck so it's nice and smooth. Aged string retainer and neck F plate was added (I always intended to add aged tuners and bridge but never got round to it.) Body - it had a few dinks here and there which have been added to (nothing major to be honest) and the bass still has the Seymore Duncan designed pickups, original bridge and tuners. The olympic white has aged and yellowed really nicely and the rosewood board is nice and dark. I know this won't be to everyone's taste but if you fancy a 70s P and don't fancy the price of one, this could be for you! I have included a picture of the original squire serial number for information. Not sure what else to add about the bass. It plays great and sounds just like a P should. The previous owner changed the wiring to cloth wiring and added an orange drop cap to the tone control. Any trial is welcome and I have packaging to post. Will look at quotes and would be happy to share the postage costs.

  7. I’ve just discovered this thread and thought I’d weigh in as I’ve owned an OC2, OC3 and OC5 briefly at the same time! Only the OC5 remains. I couldn’t find a difference in sound between the 2 and 5’s -1 setting apart from a volume difference and better tracking in the 5. I didn’t rate the 3 at all. I also use an EBS OctaBass which tracks terribly but has a great synthy sound and an MXR bass octave deluxe which does the oc2 thing well with an added bonus of being able to blend a modern octaver sound it to give it girth. I’ve tried the Aguilar which I didn’t think has a good sound or tracks well at all. I have a bit of an octaver addiction haha…
  8. Not a bad idea!
  9. But surely nobody is that stupid as to not contact the seller directly? Am I missing something 🤷‍♂️ for example all Bassbros stuff is advertised there but you gotta be pretty dim not to see who the seller is
  10. And again - Wow!!

  16. I know Behringer don't always clone circuits as closely as the cosmetics suggest, some are only accurate to a block diagram level. So I wouldn't automatically expect it to sound identical, though it should certainly be in the ballpark.

  18. 2018 Fender USA Limited Edition Parallel Universe '51 Telecaster PJ Bass in excellent/new condition with all original paperwork, tools and case. Weight: 4.3kg / 9.48lbs. This is a lovely passive PJ bass with an amazing tone, described by Fender as "punchy, growling, seismic and like nothing you've heard before." I agreed when I tried it, hence why I purchased it from new. However, my recent retirement now dictates that my bass collection be trimmed to fund my other addictions. As a Limited Edition it is relatively rare, with a unique set of features which also appealed to me. The translucent nitrocellulose lacquer blonde finish allows the ash grain to show through beautifully IMO. Also included is the framed Fender promotional Parallel Universe '51 Telecaster PJ Bass artwork to adorn your studio/man cave wall. Happy to provide more information or photos on here or via Personal Messenger, just ask. Price is £1500 collected from Bury Saint Edmunds or localish meet up. No trades please, just a straight sale, thank you for looking. Link to Fender video:- Specifications:- Body: Solid Ash. Body Finish: Blackguard Blonde Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer. Neck: Maple with maple fingerboard. Neck Finish: Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Front, Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer Back. Scale Length: 34 inches (864 mm). Fingerboard Radius: 9.5 inches (241 mm). Nut Width: 1.625 inches (41.3 mm). Controls: Dual Concentric Volumes, Master Tone. Custom Shop '60s P Bass split-coil middle pickup, Custom Shop '60s Jazz Bass single-coil bridge pickup. Stacked volume knob, where the top knob adjusts the volume of the Precision Bass pickup and the bottom adjusts the Jazz Bass pickup. Master tone control. Bridge: 4-Saddle Hi Mass Vintage-Style Bass with vintage-style nickel-plated brass saddles. Tuning Machines: Fender® Lightweight Vintage-Style Keys with Tapered Shafts. Fender blurb:- The authentic style extends from the slab body, distinctive single-ply black pickguard to the dual-concentric volume knobs and vintage spaghetti logo on the Telecaster-style headstock — original-era touches brought into the present. What's more, the neck recalls the time of James Jamerson, as it's based on a '63 P Bass profile ideal for funky, thumb-over playing, and the 9.5"-radius fingerboard makes for fast, low action. In all, the '51 Telecaster PJ Bass has the look of the bass that started it all, but several contemporary trappings. The result is a bass that is punchy, growling, seismic and like nothing you've heard or seen before.

  19. Yep, 'twas my Markbass TA503, that I still own. Thanks for the kind words mate.
  20. Behringer Ultra DI Model DI100, brilliant DI for home studio and on stage direct to FOH the rubber edges have some scuffs and bangs but generally good condition. £15 shipped. Thanks,
  21. A well loved and used Boss TU2, it's only just come off the pedal board replaced by the rather tiny Polytune 3 mini. With original box, some scuffs around the housing, definitely not a display unit but everything works exactly as it should. £40 posted sound fair? Thanks,
  22. Thanks you sir! Hope you are well ✊️
  23. Line 6 HX Stomp in used condition bought from this very forum recently for £300 and looking for the same back. It taught me that I'm a very simple person and I made one patch on the HX stomp which was the fantastic Noble Preamp and an FX loop for all my other pedals So I've done myself a favor bought a Caveman BP1 preamp and now this is surplus. No original box but will be very well packaged for shipping, comes with power supply and usb cable, everything works as it should. £300 shipped. obviously more bubble wrap will be added to the parcel
  24. When I bought my 4003, I immediately invested in a set of labelled knobs as the jazz bass style knobs it came with don't look right on a Ric, and I knew I'd forget which knob is which.
