  1. Becoming inspired to give flats a go, though the main 'Ray gig is with an Evanescence tribute, so not quite the vibe! 😅
  2. It is interesting that we all hear different things. For me, you've just named two bass types that stand out most from the sonic hole! 😅 Whereas I find most two pickup single coil basses disappear unless they're really dialled up.
  3. Started out bass life with a SUB being the first proper non-"cheap" bass I owned, spent the next 18 years owning pretty much every type of bass imaginable and never being satisfied, and for the past year I've landed back with a 2016 PDN StingRay and it just ticks all the boxes for me now. The Specials are also wonderful basses (and share much of the PDN spec). I went through a period of trying other older Rays and concur with the other issues noted on here, but the newer ones are very, very much worth trying. Most Ray's I've played have felt like overly harsh sounding boat anchors, but not so with the newer stuff.
  4. Reduced to £325. This is more than worth it for the fuzz and filter circuits alone before all the bells and whistles!
  5. Take the head out and there's your cab! If space wasn't at a premium I wouldn't be moving it on, its a brilliant bit of kit and looks great too. And, like busses, there are TWO for sale on the forum at the same time, the 12inch is the classic but I'm sure the 15inch is ace too, can't go wrong.
  6. So assume this is a no, I'm not going to help 😅 https://www.facebook.com/share/p/17qsDtrm3N/
  7. Its pretty incredible they have kept it going for as long as they have on their own, I assumed they had been bought by a big player decades ago. Its a very niche product as a core instrument I can't see why someone wouldn't buy the license to use the name and build these going forward, but I can't see anyone saving the business.
  8. Looking to sell my Mesa Walkabout Scout 112 valve combo. I bought it with every intention to use it, but in reality all gigs I'm doing at the moment are all IEM/FoH jobbies and it's only current use is in the home, which of course its overkill for! Would like to hang on to it, and happy to if it doesn't find a home, but the money would be better invested elsewhere. In very good condition, some minor scuffing to corners, a scratch on one of the amp handles and a corroded screw on the bottom radiator but otherwise in beautiful condition. All works perfectly and sounds fantastic. Comes with its original cover too. Of course, this model is the one where you can slide the Mesa head out and use it with whatever rig you please if you fancy it, and the price for the head alone is great! I can't imagine needing more volume at most gigs, and the low end is absolutely HUGE. I'm not going to post this so will happily arrange to deliver or meet somewhere depending on distance, I'm pretty much smack bang in the middle of the country. Trades, I'd consider modern PJB combos but that's about all amp wise, open on other gear. Cheers!
  9. Standard practice, every time I have pre-ordered something it seems they become available on general sale elsewhere before I get mine, complete waste of time. Bass Direct and the Gallery both had free stock available last week, not sure if any are left now.
  10. Legendary analog bass synth pedal from Chunk systems. Long discontinued and very hard to come by. These units were only handmade between 2008 and 2012 in Australia and sadly the maker disappeared and no longer makes any pedals. It's effectively the legendary and sought after in its own right Brown Dog Gated Fuzz and Agent 00 Funk (which both sell for almost the asking price separately!) in a single pedal, with a VCO and a digital control interface. Unlike modern synth pedals, the audio circuit is 100% analog and the digital elements are just to change and save settings and presets. Around 300 were made. This one is loaded with the last firmware version and has a mix of factory presets (including those made by Jamiroquai/Paul Turner) and my own. I can leave everything as-is or reset the firmware so only factory presets remain, either way I'll include the SD card with everything loaded on. Part of its legend/charm is it's not great to use interface(!), but you get the hang of it. Highly recommend using this website for tips http://www.cgraham.com/chris/music/bass/octavius_squeezer/. Also linked on that site is a spreadsheet I made to document presets, both factory and custom. Pedal is in very good condition, few marks and scratches here and there commensurate with age, works perfectly. No box or PSU, works off a regular 9v regulated supply. I'll try and remember to grab some more pics soon. £350 £325

    Always a good sign! I think that's the setting I like as well, so I'll hunt out that one, ta! I like the idea of having a compressor block that doesn't have any of the variables available to adjust, so I can't be tempted to mess with it. So if it works, brilliant stuff!

    Is there any more detail about how V2 is able to capture compressors? Kean to try it out when I get chance,there's a bunch of Cali 76 captures, but can't get my head around how it may work??
  13. Just seen, £2k?! #triptochichestercancelled
  14. But wait, there's more... Coming in a couple weeks.
  15. Do you catch a price? Most decent Ric copies are selling for completely daft money now, but perhaps an old school shop may be more realistic...
