  1. Cioks DC7 puts out more than enough for any Sushi pedal. Worth noting though, you may get away with a lower ma supply than Nathan states. His pedals have a current draw that's a good 40% more during warm up, once warmed up the draw drops off, so you'd probably get away with it if you don't mind it being a bit iffy when first turned on. There's plenty of chat about it in the T**k***s thread.
  2. To be fair, from that description it seems like a very faithful copy all round!
  3. Same as the 4's really, the NT has a deeper and slightly more scooped tone, the BO has a bit less low end and more pronounced high mids. Its all quite subtle though.
  4. Ocean Blue is a lovely finish, I think its the flame that's really setting it off here though!
  5. No probs. You may be fine with it, but just try it first! I usually have no issue with neck dive, but the BO thumb 5's are something else entirely, especially when combined with how far away the first fret feels on these basses due the small bodies. Conversely, a NT 4 is my fave Warwick despite the mild dive!
  6. Great basses, very unique sound, the most "Warwick" Warwick bass. Main con of the BO 5's is the neck dive. Its horrific and notably uncomfortable, at least on the ones I've owned/tried. I completely fell in love with a mid-00's one I had when playing with it sat down. When I put it on a strap, it was listed for sale the next day. NT models much improved. I haven't tried a post-2013 one so they may have improved it, definitely a try before you buy if live use is planned.
  7. Most of the time people know exactly what they're doing, but I think sometimes people genuinely don't accept what they're doing is beyond personal sales as well. We have people on here argue until they're blue in the face that they're not traders when asked if they need a commercial membership, be it through devious or denial means...I think I saw one of them had a stand at a recent Guitar show 😅

    Nope, nothing. Have you tried messing with levels in the i/o menu? If you're getting white noise out of the box though, doesn't sound right. With a closed noise gate, mine is as quite as you could want it to be.
  9. In fairness, it was extremely predicable it would go this way, especially following your rather tongue in cheek use of the word "bargain" 😅 That being said, I don't think anyone has been rude, its just an open on-topic discussion.
  10. Just a little heads up - no real issues discussing this fella here, but please don't post any direct links to the basses he's selling. He's more than welcome to come on here and advertise them
  11. Just goes to show its how you use it, as there's nothing non-Darkglass about the capability of this one, just a digital Alpha Omega with additional octave and routing.
  12. To be fair, if he's not making a profit on most of those, he's had a nightmare...
  13. I just meant doing that would make it absolutely sure it was the tube 👍
  14. Could that be an indication the tube is microphonic? Try opening up the finally when it's on and connected to an amp and gently tap the tube, see what kind of sound it sends through the amp, if any.
  15. I'm sure if everything came down 10-20% he'd have an easier time of it, but if they've been up for ages then I guess he has the retailer mentality at the mo!
  16. I mean to be fair, that mostly follows the body line/contours 😅
  17. It's all top dollar for sure, but quite a collection!
  18. The only one I can see in that link does? Looking at other pictures of other Retro's, I do feel like it has the new body edge contours? Which may be causing it, or causing the illusion. Either way, its odd that they wouldn't just copy the bass its a reissue of when they did everything else. BUT who cares, they're lovely basses otherwise.
  19. Sorry no not the scratch plate alignment, i'm talking about the alignment with the edge of the body. Every control plate i've seen follows the body lines, whereas these don't seem to?
  20. Do you have a link to any 76 era Stingray's that have the same control plate not following the body curve? Struggling to see one!
  21. Is it because the new ones have the different contouring that's causing it to shift? I would have thought it was vintage spec, but the body shape looks different all round in that pic if you start comparing other things like the bridge position too.
  22. This thread is surreal today 😂
  23. Probably better to compare against other independents and stores that have comparable shipping volume? Bassbros, for instance? Vintage Bass Room?
  24. £5 sounds a bargain for £700 worth of goods to be shipped to you, risk free
