  1. That be a Westbury Track II i reckon; late seventies/early eighties model?
  2. We must be mad
  3. You'll love it
  4. Mechanical switching like that does have a little pop as the switch is switching between the circuit and the output jack, whereas Boss and similar pedals have the buffer bypass and are silent, basically because the signal is always going through the circuit. Bypasses vary, cheap ones can be poppy and/or can wear out rather quickly. Contact cleaner may help, but more than likely it is just the sound of that switch, unless it has gotten worse? Even the highest quality of pedals can have switches that fail. I had a both a Darkglass B3K and 3Leaf Wonderlove that both needed their switches replacing, although i think that was due to the builder having a few teething issues with their soft touch relay bypass. Bloody lovely switch though
  5. How much are they worth? Certainly kick started
  6. Smart looking pieces of kit these new Warwick amps

    [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1379487020' post='2213142'] Haha! Yeah I do! I really want a W&C TFR Nah I'm alright for delay thanks but thanks for the offer [/quote] You've had a good try of the TFR, have you? Many, many muff clones out there, i myself have commissioned a custom grand tarkin with Cog Effects that will hopefully end the search for me!
  8. But this is a boutique limited run so it must be better
  9. Sounds good, but i wonder how well it really tracks. Very conservative careful playing at times in that video, i fear it may not be great. Great time to be a synth bass player though, lots of new gear coming out all the time! In terms of cost though, $400 i wouldn't say is that expensive, when you consider the cost of Darkglass pedals and others.

    NBD!?!

    [quote name='Jimryan' timestamp='1379681742' post='2215656'] Because I want the one in my head more, it just means I'll have to get another one of these. [/quote] Careful, consistency in modern Squier basses isn't great, although better than 10 years ago. If you have found a good one, leave it alone and find a not so good one to mod
  11. There was a Status Graphite Groove bass in the classifieds not so long ago, not sure if it is still available? That would be a great choice for the money.
  12. I love the headless,apart from the headless bit.
  13. Dreaming at that Buy it Now price, certainly an interesting bass though.
  14. It looks like it! Mark seems to be advertising them as brand new/unplayed, can't see any other way he could have gotten hold of them?
  15. Worth a go? Entered
  16. Unless you are set on buying new, i would keep an eye out for the old US SUB basses. My first 'proper' bass and i really enjoyed it, great instruments But saying that, heard good things about the new ones too.
  17. Pretty looking thing
  18. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Just quoting the words of Mike Beigel [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Don't necessarily agree! Edited first post for clarity [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]As someone has said, i reckon the 3Leaf Proton has the vibe in modern form. [/font][/color]
  19. I thought the Kanye West track was truly terrible. I don't like hip hop at the best of times, but musically for me it was just such a bad mix full of terribly unmusical ideas. I can only give the man the benefit of the doubt and assume the studio version sounds much better.
  20. Can only echo other comments, as long as communication is clear with the buyer then there should be no problems. I have had all positive experiences in that regard, most recently i had to keep a buyer waiting over a week before i was able to post a speaker cabinet to him. However, made this clear at the start and he was perfectly fine with it I am, however, extremely impatient myself at times and I would be, probably silently, annoyed if a seller agreed to post on a day but didn't post until a couple of days later without letting me know
  21. £675 Collected £800 trade value. Can't see one for sale new for less than £1150 and that wouldn't come with the quality fitted cover so really cannot justify reducing the price. Will deliver within a ~100 mile radius for petrol.
  22. Are you the builder? If so, perhaps you could explain the design? Given the awfulness of the Haz labs reissue, i don't hold out much hope, [b][i]according to [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Mike Beigel [/font][/color][/i][/b]the Q-tron is the closest copy of the Mu-tron sound...
  23. The oxide I had (2013 build) was very high gain as I recall, as with all the IE units I have had (pretty much all). Either the circuit was revised or you have a faulty unit, ask Taylor the question, the answer would probably help your sale!
  24. Really good buy, this. Can't see what the likes of a Wren &Cuff TFR would have over this, the tonal options are great and it's a really nice build.
  25. Is it this one? http://www.thomann.de/gb/warwick_alien.htm Lovely looking bass! Certainly would be the acoustic I would choose!
