  1. Constantly disappointed by all classified section hunting except Basschat! Issues with both FB marketplace and Gumtree this past few days...

     

    Why advertise something for sale and not respond when someone expresses interest in what you're selling within an hour of the ad going live?

      I feel your pain regarding this issue, sadly I've been disappointed with Basschat classified sale this week. 😢

      Nothing to do with responses, but still, disappointment is disappointment.

  2. I don't think they've actually been released yet
  3. Until they improve the paintjob on the "burst" models they can keep them...
  4. Has anybody with experience of these basses tried a Markbass Gloxy GV5 by any chance? Not the prettiest basses around but they sound pretty killer, have my preferred P-bass body shape and they're well under budget...
  5. I'd be on the lookout for a Roland Bass Cube if I were in your position. Lots of sound options. You should be able to pick up the Bass Cube 30 for under a ton I should think. I've no experience of the others on your list I'm afraid, but I'd stay well clear of the Spark.
  6. Considering a 5 string Jazz guys and kind of have it narrowed down to either a Lakland DJ5 or an Elrick NJS5. No chance of road testing either before buying - Northern Ireland is truly a bass wasteland... So has anybody got experience of both these instruments? I've previously owned 4 Lakland Skylines (JO4, 55-01, 55-02 dlx, BG5) and love their 5 string neck so I'm leaning that way myself, but could do with further input! And maybe suggestions of alternatives in the usual Basschat style! Preferably a passive 5 with 70s pickup spacing, 18-19mm string spacing, available used for around a grand. I've already considered a Sire V5 but I'd need hands on before I'd go that route.
  7. Yeah the lack of plugin compatibility kills it for me. I suppose I could capture my fav Parallax sounds but... meh...
  8. I suppose it depends on whether you want to select from a set list of effect/amp/IR blocks or a huge capture library!
  9. Interesting... https://neuraldsp.com/nano-cortex
  10. I'd have this in a second... if the Irish Sea wasn't between us that is!
  11. When you say the Muff and Darkglass were too much, what do you mean? Too much distortion? Which Darkglass did you try? My go-to distortion pedal at the minute is the Darkglass Alpha-Omicron clone by DemonFx.

    Line6 Helix

    The HX stomp CAN do it, but it's awkward in how you have to set it up and you're restricted to 8 processing blocks total (used to be 6 but an update upgraded it!) and doesn't have XLR ours. You need to go to the HELIX LT for that. Go the whole hog...
  13. I would have paid 499 for it even with the issues. The only one that'd bother me is the bass control and it's a simple fix, but YMMV
  14. Never heard of this, but now I'm interested and the kits are out of stock!
  15. Exactly the same here, such a great tone and fantastic playing...
  16. I assume from the number of controls and the labelling that the pedal on the top right is a Mastotron clone?
  17. Do you have normally have PA support?
  18. Not often you see used 3leaf Audio pedals for sale in little old Norn Iron... Would have been rude not to...

  19. Love the body shape but yeah, probably neck dive. Bigger issue for me is no "bridge" pickup (both pickups too far north for my liking). It'd probably be a no for me...
