  1. Can't help but be disappointed that the two new products were just revamps! Find it a bit odd they bigged it up...
  2. My first Boss pedal, released 2002. Other than replacing COSM with AIRD, not a lot has changed.... I dunno, I think for those who want to go the multi fx route, there are a ton of options out there with proper interfaces and signal chain routing e.t.c., whereas this just seems so old hat, like from the days when Boss didn't really have any competition. Just seems bizarre.
  3. Seeing a multi-fx processer with that many physical knobs in 2024 is wild, the release honestly looks about 10 years out of date. They kinda already did the budget GT-1000 with the Core version, what's the market for this?
  4. Up for sale I have something a little unusual! It is a clone of a Fortin Zuul noise gate pedal, built by a small Australian builder in very low quantities. The quality of the build is exceptional, picture can't really do the dark artwork justice, and having owned a Zuul before, can confirm it nails the action. Choppy aggressive gate with a haunting silence between notes (probably inspiration for the art!). It has the all key input (side chain) so you can trigger the gate with your clean signal, and has a side chain through like the Zuul +. For anyone using high gain bass distortion and plays anything remotely djenty, this is ESSENTIAL to get the right effect. I bought this as the Quad Cortex I use doesn't have the sidechaining function and the gates are a little loose for me, which I've been battling with for a while. Of course, literally the same week I bought this pedal, Neural DSP announced that sidechaining was being introduced for the noise gates in the next update.....you can't make it up! SO yes, as much as I want to keep this pedal because of how cool it looks, in reality it just doesn't offer enough that I don't already have with the QC, so it needs to go. £95 plus a few quid for shipping, depending on what service you want. The cheapest Zuul will set you back over £200, so enjoy this bargain!
  5. Is it me, or is the Classfieds slower than ever at the moment?  Noticing a LOT of stuff hanging around for ages that would have been snapped up not so long ago...

      I have taken to putting stuff up on eBay as well. That's pretty dead too. Loads of watchers, no actual offers (apart from the occasional absurd lowball chancer, eg £600 for my vgc black/black/maple US Jazz)

      Haven't used EBay in a while, whenever I was buying I always thought pricing was optimistic...agree with Clarky on the 'chancers' though.  Currently selling my JMJ and FB market place is a joke....full of the 'I send handler to collect these item' crowd.

      I have given up for now and withdrawn the two basses I was trying to sell on both BC and eBay. Reason being I spend too much time checking in and bumping and - on eBay - answering idiots!  A kind of relief to not keep wasting time ... and I am sure the market will return to something like normality at some point

  6. I wanted this bass SO much last time it was up! Still do! I'll need to move something first though, I take it from the OP you're not in the market for trades? Cheers
  7. Mad price, sure you didn't mean for that to start with a 2?! Hopefully gets snapped up by a player and not a flipper!
  8. I think in honesty it's too bad to be AI, or at least, it's AI from multiple prompts. It just looks like copy/paste from here there and everywhere. Be good if the owner chimed in though, as it's all looking a bit ropey however you look at it.
  9. Can you quote some? I'm not seeing anything that would differentiate AI over just bad unoriginal writing borrowing pieces already written.
  10. There's nothing too glaring there really, to me anyways.
  11. Those who are talking about the strings, you don't get them until month 5 so that sounds about right. Not about to send strings out until you've at least covered the cost of them! Any links to any articles? Can usually spot AI articles a mile off.
  12. Joking aside, as much as I love Nate's playing, his bass demos are actually entirely useless for this exact reason. Everything sounds overwhelmingly like him, and the techniques he uses overpower anything unique about the bass itself. I just wish influencers would just stick to playing the most basic riffs, or recognisable riffs, so you can really get a feel over what the bass can do, not what they can do.
