    Do you mean the Behringer X V-amp?

    No, it was sort of chorus/delay hybrid. It didn't do either very well, I'm afraid...

    I've just ordered the synth pedal and the updated octave pedal (SO400) from Thomann for thirty-odd quid each....... I'll let you know how I get on

    ...I did, however, buy the multi-effect pedal which was Ebayed within an hour of purchase....

    ...slightly less love for Behringer now as both pedals are now winging there way back from whence they came...
    Synth pedal refused to track unless I hit the strings with a chair leg and the Octave pedal only gave a satisfactory note with everything wound up full.

    Sigh.

  3. I've got some love for Behringer....

    I'm a Music teacher (no sniggering) and we've got three mutli function amps (you know, the ones with mic/jack/phono inputs blahblahblah) in the department. It's no surprise that they get battered to within an inch of their lives almost daily. Apart from the odd broken knob incident (?) they've been as good as gold.

    I use the bass eq on my board and it does the job very nicely. And if a stagediver puts a Doc Marten through it, I expect I'll be able to pick another one up from Fleabay for a tenner, just like this one.

  4. [size=3][color=#222222][font=Arial]Without doubt, one of the greats, but he may be the man most responsible for terrible, atonal, fumbled bass-slappage at Guitar shops the world over. Level 42 records should have had some form of warning on - "This man is a trained and skilled musician - you are not. Get your thumb away from the fretboard until you're old enough to drink legally. Then play nothing but Motown grooves for three years. Then...we'll talk".[/font][/color][/size][color=#222222][font=Arial][size=1][/size][/font][/color]

    [size=3][color=#222222][font=Arial]Those Jaydee Basses weighed a ton, too. He used to fair chuck his about. Respec’ (as the young people say).[/font][/color][/size][color=#222222][font=Arial][size=1][/size][/font][/color]

    [size=3][color=#222222][font=Arial]He came into a record shop I worked at back in the fabulous 90's. Yes he is a lovely, stand-up bloke and funny too...he told me one of the funniest (and longest) jokes I have ever heard. By then, my muso fixation had waned and my L42/Stanley Clarke/Zappa albums were consigned to the back of the cupboard, while I waxed rhapsodic about Mike Mills and Mike Watt. Now I'm older, wiser and considerably less cool, so I can say after many years of denial...I'm a fan.[/font][/color][/size][color=#222222][font=Arial][size=1][/size][/font][/color]

    [size=3][color=#222222][font=Arial]Although badly played slap Bass still sounds like 1000 dyslectic secretaries typing out endless shopping lists.....[/font][/color][/size][color=#222222][font=Arial][size=1][/size][/font][/color]

  5. Happy New Year!

    Up for grabs is a white, single ply Squier Scratchplate. It been drilled for a P/U cover and a thumb rest, apart from that, its all good.

    I don't have the Squier it came from any more, so I can't give you too much info, I'm afraid - getting scratchplates for some models is a bit of a lottery.

    'oo wants it then?
