  1. I'd seen that too but got an email from Andertons saying it was the 26th of June's hoping its another order.
  2. I've got an Atom on order from Andertons since April but it's been delayed til the end of this month. Hopefully it arrives on time as my band has a pretty big gig in July 🤞
  3. In short yes. Most of the weddings I do these days are with one band and its mostly soul/R&B?pop stuff, so not much need for phasers and delays and fuzzes. All its got is my Noble DI, an Octabvre, a drive of some sort and C4 for the two synths sounds on the set. The board I use for my originals band (jazz-ish) has all the weird stuff on it: fuzz, delay, chorus, filter. I occasionally take it out on cover gigs if the set is more wide-ranging.
  4. I like the look of these but, like a lot of short scales, they've placed the bridge very far into the body. This always puts me off, because it negates what is, to me, the point of a short scale: a shorter reach to the lowest fret.
  5. This guy will make you one for about £50, in either canvas or vinyl: https://www.hotcovers.co.uk You just need to go to the custom order page and use one of the PDF templates to do the measurements.
  6. I can vouch for the Julia. The blend knob is really useful and the ability to vary the 'Lag' allows for some great tones.
  7. How's the Broadcast on bass? seems counter-intuitive to have a low cut 😅
  8. we have broncos at my work and they're great. very playable and actually sound pretty decent.
  9. I had the Latent Lemon silicon and I liked it, though the Malekko won out. I'd bet the germanium is worth trying.
  10. And my interest is re-piqued! Seems damning if the nut needs filed though? take the strings were horribly high at the first fret?
  11. A little disappointing, I was pretty excited about these. Maybe it'll come out better in the full review.
  12. I only have the silicon, and if I did I wouldn't let go of it 😂 Latent Lemon do a germanium clone though, about £200 I think.
  13. That was my fear 😭 I can't seem to take the circuit board out, it feels like it might break.
  14. The 'Fuzz' knob on my Malekko Diabolik seems to have a short dead spot towards the upper end of its travel. Its Probably only a millimetre or so wide, but at that point the volume drops to almost nothing (just a touch of fuzz coming through) and it clicks as you turn through it. I've unscrewed all the screws on it to try get a look inside and/or clean the pot, but the way it's built the circuit is locked in there even with all the screws taken out. Anyone with more electronic experience than me seen this before?
  15. its for a Malekko Diabolik, think it was up for £140.
  16. I sold a pedal on another site but it fell through, can I resurrect my old for sale post?
  17. Can't believe its still here 😂 I love mine, great bass.
  18. There's space for a standard Boss size pedal, so I could use the Jam Pedals LucyDreamer, it has 2 drive settings.
  19. how many gain stages/drives are people using on their boards? I've had three on my big board for the last 6 months: JPTF FX Jive as a low amp-like drive; Origin Effects Halcyon drive as mid-level cranky drive; and some kind of octave fuzz (Tru-Fi Super Fuzz, Tru-Fi Colordriver, JPTR FX Add Violence, among others). Yesterday I decided to rewire the whole thing to have just the Halcyon and the Malekko B:Assmaster, as its my favourite fuzz pedal (it's a big pedal so I can't have the Jive). Now I'm worried I don't have enough drive sounds 😅
  20. Update on my situation: I put in a claim through PayPal and within 24 hours had a response for the seller saying they had raised a complaint with DHL, and earlier today I received an email saying DHL were going to contact the driver to find out where it ended up. Fingers crossed!
  21. Last time I ordered from Anderton's (a month or 2 ago) it was delivered by DPD. I wonder if they switched courier because of complaints...
