    A couple of absolute bargains. EBMM 5 string stingray at £1300 brand new Ashdown CTM 300 for only £729 (RRP at 2 grand IIRC) Used Ashdown LB550 for £263 couple of others too https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/sale/bass-guitars Man I wish I had some money!

    Selling my (I believe) unique ThorpyFX The Veteran Si. Why is it unique? Because it has gold footswitches and a purple / mauve-ish chassis. When I bought this new from Adrian Thorpe he called me and informed me he had run out of the usual colour chassis and would I consider a different colour chassis. I did. @ThorpyFX can verify this if you need that. I'm moving it on simply because I need some good vocal recording mics and I need to raise money. Comes with the box and instructions. It's a fantastic pedal but needs must. £170 ono including Special Delivery in the UK. If you want to collect if from Northants I can knock the postage off. ta

    I have lost the power supply to my Rockboard XL I am annoyed.

    Black always looks better than tort. Tort is for deviants.

    I do wish EBMM would update the Sterling to be lightweight like the ray. OR at least make the SLO neck available on the Ray all the time.

    Weird isn't it! I've had 5 string Rays that have been lighter.

    Depends on the individual preset. Even among the crap on the Helix there are some good ones.

    I use wet & dry paper. Really really fine grain. Not going through the finish, just removing the gloss. Nothing needed afterwards.

    @Al Krow How good is the SY-1 just as an Octave?
  10. fretmeister
    That looks like a bargain!

    Mono for me. I tend to use the Mono Sleeve. It's lighter weight than the Vertigo although not as rigid. But I never put it down anywhere.

    The Hotone Thunder Bass is great fun. 5W and it sounds like a SVT. With a good cab it’s surprisingly loud.

    Billy puts epoxy on his, presumably he’ll have to still do that because metal covers will be horrible if the string touches it.

    TecAmp Puma 300 (not the bigger ones though) Demeter VTBP-M-800D (amazing amp that. I sold it. Idiot.)

    I quite like the existing scratchplate but is I was going to change it then BWB would be my choice. I don't like the feel of metal plates and tort is only for deviants.

    From what I gather this effectively is an OC2W

    Selling my lovely Marshall SC20H to raise funds for my home studio. I'm the first owner and it's only been used in the house. I bought it in June 2019. It's in excellent condition aside from a scratch on one of the corner protectors. Full specs are here: https://marshall.com/marshall-amps/products/amps/studio/sc20h Basically it's a 20W (switchable to 5W) JCM800. It sounds amazing alone, and even better when the proper 800 thing is done - with a great drive in the front end. But the low input is surprisingly nice for clean tones with a strat. Collection only from Northants. £525 ono seems to be the going rate for a used one. __________________________________________________________________ Also selling a Jet City 2x12 cab - "JCA24S+" model. (Snappy title!) STOCK PHOTO I'll get a proper pic later. It's a stereo / mono 2x12 that also has an XLR output on it with a speaker sim for recording. I've never used that feature. The cones are "Jet City Custom Eminence" - I have no further information. It's only been used in the house and it's in near perfect condition. It works very well with the Marshall. Collection only from Northants. £120 ono. If anyone wants them both a deal can be done.

    Can't see a bass demo yet, but hopefully not long.

    My word! I appear to be having a tingling moment! Im going to need a 3rd 5 string, aren’t I?

    @therealting well? Ive discovered some costs cutting. The J pickup is a right noisy bastard when recording. Might have to get it shielded properly. Or swap the J for a stacked one.

    I've tried it at home with a G70 and a G75. They are among the lowest latency units available at 1.5ms each. Most wireless units have a fair bit more than that, but ultimately most latency is not really any different than standing a couple of metres further from the amp. If there is a modelling unit as well (Helix etc) then the ADA process in those units also increases latency a little. My main concern is that using 2 units means 2 separate freqs in use and a bigger chance of interference. Overall though, I didn't see the point. Bass to board - yup. But board to amp as well? It worked with my 2 units but it was more faff, more batteries, more charging, more risk of something going wrong than a simple cable.

    It's just a shame that Chappers has destroyed his cred over the last 6 months. All over the web if you want to read about it.
