WOW!!!!! That’s an in depth response! 😂 I think I may have bought a faulty Katana GO 😳

Owned from new for around 12yrs, I bought this from Thomann and had it set up for Rockabilly. It definitely feels a step up from the entry level basses and I have used it live a lot. Most of its life has been more of feature in my living room though. The last couple of years I have been coming to terms with the fact that I need to sell it. Space is at a premium, it rarely gets used and I am of an age where the EUB seems the easier option. The specs are here Thomann link if anyone is interested. I added a pickup which has been useful - a David Gage Realist. People often call it a copper head. They’re industry standard and normally about £120 used. Mine is included with the bass at no extra cost to you. There is a tatty (by my high standards) gig bag and the strings are currently Gut-A-Like vintage ones Gut A Like strings You’ll see I added a few stickers. These should be fairly easy to remove. I’m happy to do it, or I can leave it. Equally I am happy to add more pictures. It’s currently lent against the wall in my place in Hungerford, where I am Sunday to Thursday evenings. Postage looks too hard to do so it would be a collection. I have gotten it in a Peugeot 107 before - not comfortably, so perhaps don’t bring the family if collecting!-

These are great and I am only selling as I just upgraded to the BCB-90x. It’s set up with the daisy chain all in place. You just need to add your pedals and patch cables. Cut for six Boss sized pedals. Price includes UK postage. Check my feedback and buy with confidence. PayPal or bank transfer preferred. -
I’m a big fan of Boss pedals and have just re-done my board. I went a bit mad recently and have a fair few that are surplus to my requirements. All are boxed (initially the OC3 was listed as unboxed but I have since found the box) and only the super overdrive has Velcro on the bottom. I would grade these as at least 9/10 in terms of condition. Prices include UK postage. Boss Octave OC3 - £85 Boss Tuner TU3 - £70 Boss Super Chorus CH1 - £75 Boss Super Overdrive - £60 Boss Bass Overdrive - £80 I looked around online and believe these are priced to sell. Check my feedback thread and buy with confidence. PayPal or balance transfer preferred.-

Above and beyond tech support and first class service from James. Another reason why this Basschat community is so valuable to us all. Thank you. Much appreciated.

Here’s a very good condition T-Rex “The Fuel Tank” Chameleon. A great piece of kit that hasn’t seen much action. Loads of leads including a doubler lead that gives you 18v from 2x9v outputs and this Fuel Tank gives 12volt options too. IEC lead included (not pictured). -
Thanks and this was my first thought. Unfortunately, the wire is old (the bass is a '75) and the snap appears pretty clean. There's a little bit of protrusion from the exit hole into the cavity but not really enough for me to be able to remove the shielding. I'll take a couple of images and post this evening. Maybe somebody with high level soldering skills and a lot of patience and the right knowledge/tools would be able to effect a solder-based repair. My soldering skills aren't bad but getting to the original wire may be beyond me. The lack of natural light in Manchester isn't really helping either. I'll attempt to get some good shots later today and post in the hope that somebody can suggest a technique/approach that might aid in circumnavigating any more extreme options. Thanks again to all, the advice is much appreciated!

just tried it with my bass, not bad, it adds a bit of overdrive not as much as the BD121, but that was too much for me anyway
-
Yeah I agree very nice sounding cabs albeit heavy for lifting I recall GLWTS -
That’s never occurred to me, top tip!

Yeah I don't think using different frequencies on the crossovers is a good idea. you can easily end up with a gap in the frequency response which is audible and hard to get around. Far better to just use the sub's crossover. The response of subs is often far from flat but a 24db/8ve crossover is going to keep a lot of problems under control. I know I set a bad example in the past but that ws in the absence of any sort of crossover, if I'd had one I would have used it. By all means experiment with aux fed sus but I still think your best result will be to use the built in crossovers, it aids set up times too once you have the relative levels set between subs and tops.

I think that by 'noise' we mean pink noise, electronically produced random noise filtered to mimic music content. The idea of hundreds of watts produced by 50 bass players all playing different things... No, wait,that is a Bass Bash 😁

Great condition, light home use only. Very good tracking. https://www.boss.info/us/products/sy-1/ -
Great tuner with lots of options and a brilliant display (with assignable pretty colours too ). Home use only, great condition. https://www.petersontuners.com/products/stroboStompHD/-

I bought this a while ago but then I changed my mind and it was too late to return it See all details about the preamp here: https://www.darkglass.com/en-gb/pages/tone-capsule-manual and here: https://www.darkglass.com/en-gb/products/tone-capsule Basically, it's a 3-band with lows at 70Hz, low mids at 500Hz and high mids at 2.8KHz with very easy wiring assembly. -
This stereo pedal has three distortion types, can save up to 3 presets as it is without any additional gear. It can, of course, be used with the Neuro hub etc and MIDI for maximum control and maaaany more presets, but I never really explored that, the pedal does all I wanted as it stands. The Neuro app, however, is very handy, as it gives you access to many parameters. The way I used it was to create the basic overdrive/fuzz sounds using the app, and then just rely on the unit's physical controls to adjust drive, blend etc to taste. It's essentially 3 dirt pedals in one, and you can modify each until you are bored . It can run two of the distortion engines simultaneously, and blend them, stack them, or output them in stereo. It can do too many things to mention, so if you're not familiar with the Aftershock it's probably best to have a look at this: https://www.sourceaudio.net/aftershock-bass-distortion.html and this (the demo focus a bit too much on the higher gain sounds, but it's excellend at low gain sounds too): It has heavy duty 3MM velcro on the bottom, which of course can be removed. The original rubber feet were never installed and are included, as well as the cable to connect it to your phone to use the Neuro app, which gives you access to a huge array of parameters. -
I had mine in a 1x10 cab and it was actually brilliant, blew it with a massive peak of high frequencies doing silly popping rather than over excursion with really low bass. It dealt with a full band practice but couldn't handle my p155 poor Flea impersonation. Managed to replace it with a Basslite scored for under £30 off eBay back when they weren't also crazy expensive.

Cheers m8 yeah I can't use a plectrum to save my life but I love muting like this, especially with a filter, so you can lift off and let certain notes ring or trigger the filter more than others. That's one of the reasons I really like the lovetone, because it is so responsive to your input and sounds good whether it's sweeping a tiny bit or a lot. Others I have tried could sound indistinct when sweeping low, or produce an uneven response.
-
Despite being bandless and not having picked up a bass for about 4 months I'd still be in the market for a BBVIS or BBVIIS. I missed out on the last one that popped up.
-
The pickup is old and I was given a newer one for my 5-string by my luthier who is the kindest of souls. The Spirocores were on the bass at point of purchase (that's what it said on the website). It is definitely a bargain, though. I just hope it is cheap enough to turn the head of someone who is up for 'having a go'. - Today

Spirocores and a Realist Copperhead - you are almost giving the bass away for free! If you lived closer and I was single I’d be snaffling this up sharpish. GLWTS somebody is going to get a bargain here.
-
I used to have a Peli alike case for mine. I almost liked the case more than the bass! Those wheels.
-
This is very true - total disaster not confirmed yet, I just assumed it.
-
You have my sympathy. It does point to that speaker not being suitable for, well, anything, except as a large and very expensive paperweight.
