I have a soldering iron that has been used once. One Christmas, my daughter got a toy tattoo gun as a present, but it didn't work. When I opened it up, I could see that one of the connections had broken, so I bought a £12 soldering iron from B&Q and fixed it. Never used it again. As I recall, the tattoo gun also only got used once. 😄

I now think I know what I want... Either, set up a "memory" e.g. U0-01 with my base sound and then U0-02 and U0-03 with the variations on that like chorus or drive... OR set up a User memory with all three buttons engaging different effects. Positives and negatives to each but this is the kind of thing I was struggling to understand how to get working. I've just been through the guitar patches now with my electric guitar and they're fantastic. Some really usable ones, even when the more weird effects are involved. I'm disappointed Boss has put absolutely zero effort into the Bass presets because the GT-10B from years and years ago had fantastic, usable bass presets and loads of them! If Boss brought those back as downloadable patches for the GX I'd be first in line.

Looks fantastic....any idea of spec, e.g. weight, scale length, string spacing, fretboard radius, pre-amp functions etc? -
Done.

I'd video reviewed the original Session combo about ten years ago and more recently the newer Mk3 30W version. I think as a little practice amplifer it's a cracking unit. Of course, it has a small speaker so don't expect window rattling low end, but it has a nice rounded tone - and didn't sound boxy in my studio. The Mk3 also has a bluetooth input, handy for jamming along to your mobile device's music selection or a practice app like Guitar Pro. I'd appreciate a like, share and a positive comment on my video *as a reviewer I am allowed to say what I want, no one sanitises my produce before it is released.

Cheers! Yeah, if I were still gigging regularly, I'd be clinging on to this amp. But I'll be keeping my Little B*ast*rd 30 for recording - probably my joint favourite with the CTM-100! - so I can't really justify keeping both of them. -
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! -
This? Renault Master,

Hey Barabas (and all) thank you for being patient! For a few reasons we've experienced a lil delay in getting reviews out, but I can confirm that I have submitted my full review and my edited (and produced) video to the magazine! The review includes both the Monaco and Silverstone II so you can compare the two! I can see them both having their place in a wide range of situations and they easily deliver the sort of sound that I demand behind me.

@SumOne did you have that introductory lesson? How was it? -
Purchased a rather lovely bass from Tony. Super smooth transaction - international not a problem. Great communications, bomb proof packaging, the whole process was better than I’ve had from many “pro” shops or dealers. Deal with Tony with confidence, he’s good people. Thanks again friend, I love it (maybe not the colour 😄)

I know she had been very unwell, but this is still very sad news. 😢

Fender Rumble Studio 40 combo amp: https://uk.fender.com/products/rumble-studio-40 Only ever used in home studio, don't think it's ever been out the house, so in really great condition. I *think* I've got the box and manual up in the loft, but haven't had the chance to check (so let me know if it's a dealbreaker before buying, just in case...). Collection only from Kingston upon Thames, KT2. -
Bought this recently but the wife says it messes up her 'feng shue'! It's a big cabinet, in great condition although I have no amp so cant run it up....it would shake the shed to bits I reckon! 800watts. If you wanted to bring your amp, you can test it...without upsetting the neighbours!. New over £1000...if you can find one....buy this for £400.00 or I will consider swaps for a decent bass or anything else really. 20251112_155359.heic 20251112_155403.heic 20251112_155409.heic 20251112_155428.heic 20251112_155431.heic

It was slow with the 15W antex, but doable with patience and a 4mm tip. I did it many times in the past.

Out of curiosity what is the neck heel width? I'm wondering if one of the Aurok necks might fit. The Z7 I tried in Andertons was absolutely killer, better sounding than both the rays I have. But I have a profound dislike of that lower horn shape. -
Great instruments ❤️❤️

I am thinking about separating my bass from my monitors and going through a small amp rather than everything going through the monitors in my practice room. My current set up includes a valve preamp that really gives a nice growl on the bridge pickup on my J style bass, not distorted or overdriven, just a nice Jazz bass tone. Anyone have any experience with the EBS session range? I picked that one because it’s all analogue. I guess I could go with my current preamp and have a small FRFR, but like I say my practice space is quite small so big speakers are not suitable. Any advice or ideas please, and thanks.

Belatedly learned this morning of @SamIAm's death from @miles'tone. Really upsetting, Sam was a whirlwind of life, ideas and good humour. Looking at the McMillan page I realise her surname was Margerison which is my aunt's maiden name. It's not a common name so there is probably some relationship. RIP Sam - hope you and the big Maker are having fun.

They're also wonderful to play. After playing my '87 JD Thumb, I just had to have it, even though it cost about six times what I got for my tatty Precision in part exchange. -

As much as we found out is here. Such a shame...
