Not at all possible. I use a remote 9-volt supply which power all these pedals satisfactorily. When I get it out to use on Wednesday evening I'll take some more photos if anyone is interested.

I'm using a Mooer Firely M6 case. It is very compact, in fact it packs away inside the tool case I use for my cables. They also do 4 and 5 pedal options. They seem to be out of stock in many places however there is currently a Firefly M4 on Ebay at the moment which might suit you well. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mooer-M4-Firefly-Case-Micro-Mini/223484707520?hash=item3408ba02c0

Bergantino EX112 I bought this a couple of years ago from the original owner as I was unable to source a second CN112. I understand that he had only used it at home. Since then it has been lightly gigged three times with a CN112 so its condition is top notch. It comes complete with original Bergantino padded cover to keep it clean and pristine. I don't have any suitable packaging so it's collect or meet-up only. No trade offers please as I have a CN210 incoming.

I've been making, selling and personally using patch cables with Hicon jacks for several years and have yet to have one fail. If made correctly the connector securely clamps on to the outer sheath of the cable and stays there. If you are using very thin cable then you might want to use some heatshrink to increase the diameter of the cable so the connector has something to bite on, that being said I wouldn't use very thin cable. I've been using Sommer Tricone and Vandamme Classic both of which are excellent. Klotxz AC110 is too inflexible and Sommer LLX is too large.

With Hicon jacks I really wouldn't bother.

Oh dear. Like many I had no idea his condition was so serious. I met Colin a few times at SE Bashes and when he popped in to collect some cables. Always pleasant and jovial and a great player to boot. A very sad loss to both his friends and family and our local music scene. RIP Colin

Just played my first full gig with the Handbox WB-100/ Bergantino NV115 rig witthout PA support. I could hear myself clearly without having to wind up the volume too far, it had a lovely warm sound and musician friends in the audience said it sat well in the mix, cutting right though. Bass was a Sadowsky Metro PJ running passive on just the P pick-up with flats. I'm a very happy chap. Just as an aside I think I need a cover for the WB-100. Anyone had one made?

Due to small hands with short fingers I have never got on with a full 44mm Precision size neck however despite that I soldiered on for years with a Stingray 5 without too much difficulty. About 5 years ago I finally gave up on the 5-string as it was becoming too much and went back to a 4 string. Initially I invested in a '73P, 41mm nut, and a '71J, 38mm nut but deep neck, neither of which have ever felt right. Eventually I bought a used Sadowsky Metro UV70 Jazz and a used Sadowsky Metro PJ, both of which have 38mm nuts and are incredibly easy and comfortable to play. A couple of years ago I thought I'd try a Fender Nate Mendel Precision, 40mm nut, as it was supposed to have a smaller neck but found that even that felt too wide. More recently I've added an original Musicman Sterling, 38mm nut, to the stable and that also feels great although the neck is slightly deeper than the Sads. I think it's been a combination of age and slight arthritis in the fingers that have been the cause of my change. Looks like the fenders are going to have to go soon as they never get played.
