Last week here before I put this up on eBay.

Last week here before I put this lovely pedal up on EBay. 

I'm not sure how this beautiful bass is still here.  I have seen it in the flesh when I bought an amp from Heathy and it looks incredible. 

For Godsake please buy this to stop me getting in trouble at home!

This pedal is in excellent condition.  Surprised it is still here too!

Rats. How did I miss this!

Weekend Bump for a fantastic pedal

These are great little amps. Really loud and a wonderful blues/rock tone.

That's banging! Quite a pleasing (aesthetically and aurally I imagine) setup!

Already have the urge to buy a second SC... Ahh GAS. Where will it end.

It never ends Jack, it never ends.

I guess personal circumstances are relevant too. I made most of the big purchases when I was living on my own and had the spare cash following redundancy/divorce/house sale. Since then i've got remarried and my priorities are quite different to then. 

Whilst I have a bit in the savings, i'd feel immensely reckless and irresponsible to have the same mindset now as a couple of years ago. Yes I do work hard and deserve some fruits of that labour, but I see my resources as collective and the potential of it not solely my own.

I'm finding i'm changing my mindset generally away from 'collecting' anything to a more efficient and minimalist lifestyle. The whole concept with expensive things I've applied to my car as well, going from a 2016 Skoda Octavia (cost £22k) now to a 2008 Mini (£3k). No more £300 a month on 'renting' a car you don't own. Also moved from a large 3 bed bungalow to a 4 bed terraced house saving a bit per month. I am earning the same amount of money as before (if not more) but just ensuring it is spent more effectively.

I'm guessing you're a fan of Dave Ramsay's money makeover then. 

Nobody is doubting you are a decent guy, they are doubting that your scales are working correctly. Those of us that own P Bass Specials (user name hint) will testify that they are incredible but bloody heavy basses.  I had to buy a comfort strap because the old one made my shoulder and back sore. 

GLWTS, she's a beauty. 

I have a heavily modded one (before I bought it) and it weighs a lot.  5kg+

Sounds incredible though.

Lucky Lawrence!

Saw Steel Panther last night at Brixton Academy.  Fantastic comedy glam metal shenanigans.  Sold out too! Best night out in ages.

There is Pirate at Croydon and I’m not sure if Scream has gone. There is a place at Chatham Dockyard which is quite easy to get to even though it’s a bit further away. And Antenna at Crystal Palace. Nothing I’d call ‘local’ I’m afraid :-(. Damn you guy who sold Ascape to Screwfix!

His name was Nick.  Think he probably now lives in France. Although after Brexit, maybe not.

This is a fantastic pedal. Just no more room on my board.

PS - if you lay the SC horizontally rather than vertically the CTM100 fits fine

Yes, but the logo is the wrong way.

Also, 2 stacked horizontally is ok but one just seems wrong!

There would also be a massive over hang with the CTM 100 too!

I would recommend an Ampeg PF500. S/H they are only about £200.  Can practice with them too as the have an aux in and a headphone socket.  Used to use one with a BFSC too. Looks nice with the cab too.

Also the Orange Terror, Randy Jackson Mark Bass or a Ampeg PF50t (all valve) work really well with it too!

I've decided to withdraw this amazing pedal for the time being as it's too nice to sell and they don't come up very often. Sorry.
