Lab Series (Moog) L4 two channel preamp (Aion L4) This is Aion FX version of the Lab Series L4 preamp - it’s got two channels, one like a fender tone stack, and one more ampeg style with a swept mid. That then goes into a saturation engine, the master output and a really musical limiter. It can put out a lot of signal. The green channel is very very similar to the Pearce preamps - and lending it to Ant he got to compare it to his Pearce and Suncoast preamps. Neither of us were going for the Sheehan thing though. Negatives, it’s fiddly to balance the channels if you want clean and dirty (though possible if you bounce it into the limiter) and if you use it in a studio full range I “think” I might hear the led switching noise in the noise floor. Live you won’t hear that. Negatives out the way - Why should you care? The L5 guitar amp was considered one of the closest solid state electronics got to the sound of a valve amp - and it’s an amazing amp style saturation thing, I think it does odd and even harmonic clipping or something and it’s the closest I’ve heard in an analogue pedal to that detailed warm model/captured valve amp in the Helix/Kemper/Anagram/QC whatever. It just sounds good. The price is again cost of kit and knobs and postage to you - if you look at the build docs you’ll see how much soldering there was to put it all together. I’m selling it because the HX stomp replaced it for me. Irn Bru PedalPCB Chop Shop (similar to Fairfield Barbershop) A clone of the V1 Fairfield Barbershop with my own custom Irn Bru artwork. Knobs can be the same as the two above if you prefer. The price is again cost of kit and knobs and postage to you - trust me when I say this lets you avoid testing and sorting lots of SMD JFets to get them in the right spec. It kinda excels at a low gain drive, sounds like the Solid Gold Beta without the bass boost. I’m selling it because my own version of the SS/BS mini replaced it. PedalPCB Low Tide (similar to Fairfield Shallow Water) This is a genius pedal in a 125B enclosure. Lofi modulator, envelope, random vibrato/chorus. Sounds amazing before drive, or end of chain. Watch the video that Zach Rizer made. This is priced… well higher than just the kit as I don’t really massively want to sell it - but it’s not getting used. I would say - it sounds ok with bass (but is very subtle) but stick something like synth/keys into it and it’s magical and analogue and warm and lovely. Broken MXR Bass octave deluxe Right, I bought this off here for the price of postage, it’s got a fault in that the detector circuit is too sensitive and picks up rumble from the bass moving. I had a go and managed to make the noise significantly less noisy by soldering a couple of extra parts inside, but it’s still noisy. Stick it after a gate, or LPF maybe it would be fine, but for me it’s useless for live work. This is a partial feature of the pedal - Listen to Janik Gwizdala’s video where he compares lots of octavers and the BOD he’s got does the same! But it’s also rubbish. So if you want to try a BOD without investing lots, or you think your rig can work around the problem it’s here or you want to just muck around at home…. It might work out? I would say that without the sensitivity problem it’s a killer pedal - one side is a OC2 style octave (synth), and the other a EBS style octave (fat) I repeat again this is broken.

Eventide H9 Max This is an absolutely amazing pedal. Really in-depth multifx with loads of parameters, one of the best reverbs I’ve heard, pitch shift and harmonising things, octave, modulation, delay, synth stuff - all controlled via a really simple to use mobile app and bluetooth. (Or on the pedal if you’re a glutton for punishment) I’ve also been using it to pass on Midi expression and time… and fully midi controllable… It’s great and sounds great… why stick it up for sale I’m wondering myself? Well I went back to a HX stomp, and the kind of music I make means I’m not going to be using the full extent of this… and while if I end up keeping it it will go back on the board, I don’t need it. If I’m being critical, some of the effects are more useful on guitar than bass, but that may say more about my lack of adventure than then pedal! With box, power supply, velvet bag, paperwork, deregistered (remind me) and ready to go. Still has the protective plastic on the screen! Also comes with a really cool custom riser @rwillett made for me, so I could raise the front of the pedal up over the pedals infront, a hot switch pedal and if you talk me into it a patch box (1590a) (and cables if needed) that split the the TRS expression out into the TS for an expression pedal (M-Audio one works fine) and the hot switch Mosky Dyna comp A Dyno style comp with one knob, surprisingly well built inside and compresses well… probably better on guitar. Got on here broken, and then fixed it. Futuristic Retro Champion, Mutron clone (Aion Lumitron) with mods It’s a mutron, built on Aion FX’s Lumitron boards. It does what a mutron should. The Mods are a decay control, so you can get a really slow release, or with HP filter going down, a slow attack style effect, it’s linked to the gain so they are quite interactive. And then the “Moog mod” which basically means the filter is effected slightly differently as you go down the fretboard. It’s subtle. I built it and erm didn’t like it. Loaned it to @ped and @Quatschmacher who said it worked and it was actually just I didn’t like a Mutron style envelope filter! It’s a decent filter but not the best. Priced at cost of kit and knobs and postage.

I have a small board and don't like clutter... so here's everything not on the board and up for sale or trade... There's one (well two) proper good pedals - priced at whatever they seem to be going for at the moment... There's a handful of things I've built myself, priced about the same as the kit to build them would cost. There's a broken/bust pedal, and a cheapo which if you're buying anything else and want it I can chuck it in.... Full detail in later posts Prices including postage....

I can’t believe it hasn’t yet! Likes hens teeth, I think when I was at yours years back I was scared to touch it!

@jimbobothy one you don’t have?
