    I don't have space for all these toys! :)[/quote]

    it´s not about space here, it´s about the money ([url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCkLEo-DT1Q"]by the way ... "money" ... great bass-line[/url])

    [quote name='Ghost_Bass' post='852300' date='May 31 2010, 02:44 AM']I bought from 3Leaf, it was the cheapest option at the time ... with shipping and customs taxes mine costed 225€... Didn't regret it at the moment but now the new MXR looks like a cheaper and very reliable option...[/quote]

    ok, thanks for the info!

    Since there is a summer sale for the 3Leaf Groove Regulator right now (till july 13th) i just ordered one
    this morning .... for 179 U$ + 30 U$ shipping + x € taxes/customs. Spencer, the guy from 3Leaf, is a great
    guy to deal with, he is also an active poster on talkbass.com ... i have much sympathy for those small
    one man(?) boutique pedal producers.

    BUT the MXR M82 will be my second choice sometime from all the reviews i have read, heared and seen.
    I believe only one envelope filter on the board is never enough, each sounds very different, i love to have
    choices.

    Bass Whammy (£310) last price drop (sold 21/07/10)

    [quote name='umph' post='875257' date='Jun 23 2010, 01:04 PM']i've seen some go for up to 800 on ebay, the prices have been getting nuts lately[/quote]
    i also watch those crazy(?) prices, BUT did they really sell for that price?
    most of the time those auctions with high starting prices or "buy it now"
    end with 0 bids.

    [quote name='gnasher1993' post='875309' date='Jun 23 2010, 01:48 PM']I agree, Basschat is probably not the best place to sell it. I'm pretty sure you'll get your £500 on ebay![/quote]
    yes, i agree ... go for ebay and sell it international, maybe Justin of TOOL
    will buy it as a backup pedal. my guess: 420 GPB maximum.

    i also have a brand new in a box whammy .... this thread makes me
    digging for gold ..... but i will keep it till prices go up to 1.000 U$.

    wow, 299 U$ (list 499 U$) .... good price and i hope it´s also a GOOD bass for that money.

    But i expect (as always) higher prices here in europe.

    [quote name='Prime_BASS' post='872345' date='Jun 20 2010, 02:12 AM']If I did look to get one of these squiers I'd add a series switch, change the pups to something more vintage voiced, badass the bridge, also change the guard to black and add some more chrome (covers, plates. Whatever really)[/quote]

    wow man, thats a lot of modification ... think about custom build jaguar :)

    I also would think about BadAssII bridge, in black. I will buy the Squier VM Jaguar for sure.

    some dude at [url="http://www.shortscale.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=34824&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=20"]shortscale.org[/url] posted a price 450 GBP he said, later he mentioned 400 GPB .... i talked to a Fender guy in Germany last week, he told me 300 - 350 GPB (converted from Euro) ... i think that price already included tax.

    ( a ) so, that VM Jag is an active bass? can you tell from the given specs if those pickups are ok?

    ( b ) what about the bridge? a black BasAssII bridge would look (and also sound???) killer on that bass.

    ( c ) other modding ideas (hahahaha, ok - little early .... lets wait and hear the bass first)

    Did you buy it straight at 3Leaf USA or what is the best place in Europe to
    buy the Groove Regulator to save shipping/tax/custom fees?

    think about it fast now. if i sign up, then i would go for the 150U$ (118 €)
    plan.[/quote]

    [quote name='LukeFRC' post='780045' date='Mar 19 2010, 07:41 PM']i built my own SFT clone- its amazing. I've no idea what the others are but a +1 for a SFT (or approximation of one)[/quote]

    Can you judge how close the clone sounds to the original SFT pedal?

    Since the Catalinbread SFT ranks very high on my GAS-list i´m also
    considering building my own clone cause i like the idea building your
    own thing and save some money.
    So which layout did you use for the clone? That one from "madbean"
    on freestompboxes.org?

    Cheers & thanks
