  1. Virtually unused Pocket Picker - [url="http://www.thepocketpicker.com/Models/models.html"]http://www.thepocket...els/models.html[/url] brought when I was trying the 'Gary Willis' approach, somewhat unsuccessfully.

    Used for a few hours. This is what Dominique Di Piazza says about his pocket picker:-

    "The pocket Picker is an incredible tool that I have adopted, and I now bring it to every gig...I found it to be very useful. I use it while I'm traveling gig to gig by train or car (of course that's when I'm not driving myself), and I can go directly to the sound check and have a great sensation of fitness when I pick up my bass. It also works well when you can't have your instrument with you right before going on stage. Honestly, since I have been using it, I have improved my right hand technique and discovered new patterns that I later reproduced on the bass. I recommend it highly, especially to work on techniques that have a lot to do with string crossing."

    I'm based in West London if anyone local would like to come over and have a try.

  2. Selling my recently purchased Sonuus B2M due to upgrading to a fully fledged midi bass.

    Great tool as a bass to midi converter but now redundant to my requirements.

    Can be connected to your DAW or to a standalone synth with a midi cable.

    Only used for about 1 hour.

    Here is the blurb from the Sonuus website:-

    B2M—Universal Bass to MIDI Converter

    Following on from the success of the G2M, the B2M brings affordable and reliable MIDI capability to bass guitar. We have been inundated with requests for the B2M and we are sure this will bring delight to bassists the world-over. With ultra-low-latency, and unmatched affordability, the B2M breaks new ground in MIDI performance for bass players -- it will even track a low B (which is only 30Hz)!

    Any electric bass guitar can be used as a solo MIDI controller.
    No instrument modifications or special pickups required.
    Robust note detection — minimises wrong notes.
    Very low latency & very fast tracking.
    Fast, accurate MIDI pitch-bend or chromatic mode.
    Built-in tuner for standard bass guitar tuning (4–7 strings)
    Battery-powered with long battery life.
    Compact, lightweight and portable.
