  1. My mum is very generously taking me to New York tomorrow, where we're going to see Ron Carter at Birdland Jazz Club, then off to Minneapolis to see Paul McCartney(!) Ian Allison is doing a clinic at The Guitar Shop NYC, but we have to be at the airport right as it starts 😭
  2. What's the story on these? They look pretty cool! Spied this on Reverb: https://reverb.com/uk/item/92525158-yamaha-broad-bass-bb-vis-short-scale-solid-body-31-5-scale-mij Short scale (ish) Yamaha form the 80s.
  3. I've never used the original but I've been using the Doom 2 for about a year now and it's super musical, very easy to dial in on the fly. I'd also say it struggles to sound bad.
  4. I've had issues with underpowered pedals causing noise over the last few months, the most recent being the CMC Audio Protoype V2, so I bit the bullet and bought a Gen X 8 from Gigrig. It has six 500mA outputs and two 1A outputs so I figured it would solve all those issues. And I was right! Its more compact than if I added a third high current adapter while still providing all the current my board needs.
  5. I just took delivery of a CMC Prototype V2. It's a great tube/amp sounding low to mid gain drive, with some great tone shaping controls. Similar to the OG Jive in some ways (though a less fuzzy character), but with more control over the drive sound. I apologise for not providing pictures.
  6. Selling this as I hardly use it, and have stepped away from weddings, so don't need to recreate those sounds anymore. Only gigged a few times, so in near new condition. Comes with original box, power supply, USB cable and user guide. Would consider partial trade for a Way Huge Pork Loin. Postage will be £10 to mainland UK
  7. This is from the first batch(ish) of this version back in 2020. Never used live and in near new condition. Comes with box and papers, and velcro on the back. Would consider trading (full or partial) for a Way Huge Pork Loin, or a Sushi Box tube DI pedal. Postage will be £15 to mainland UK

  8. Selling as I swapped them out for Zen Blades. They're a couple of years old but are working fine. They are the Bartolini P2 size. Reduced as they've seen some use: £150 I'll include postage to mainland UK.
  9. This version feels like it is aimed at guitarists and/or bass players who want to augment an already overdriven sound. My sound has more in common with Pino Paladino, Mike League, James Jameson et al, so I didn't find it to be very useable. I still have it just to have it, but I may end up selling, or keeping it in the hopes it becomes a sought after curiosity in the future.
  10. Copy cat 😜 I got a shell pink one delivered in March last year, it'll be on his Insta if you want to see what that looks like. Viv doesn't go in for a crazy amount of options, but you could get a matching headstock, I think he still does ash and alder bodies, and binding. https://www.wilcocklondon.com/order-form
  11. Love the look of this one! What kind of music do you use the front pickup for? I only use it solo'd very very occasionally. Rounds are sacrilege on a Wilcock but it does sound great so.... we'll let it slide this time 😉
  12. I have a Black Vehicle overdrive. It's got the driven amp sound down, plus a really flexible boost circuit that allows you to control how much pre and post gain it adds. Lots of sounds on tap. My only criticism would be that it is a single mix knob, rather than a dedicated dry signal control.
  13. What kind of Warwick is that?! Also, bass blaster looks awesome.
  14. Viv Wilcock makes a short scale with a 51P pickup. I believe he calls it the 51-P!
  15. I'm surprised it took this long! That's my pal's "Gamer Neckbeard" face.
