    Nice bass - where are you based, are you in the UK?
  2. dannybuoy
    Answering for him, it's the 500!

    No he won't cos I picked it up from him this morning! Fantastic bass, it's definitely a keeper and my Precision is sitting in the corner feeling sorry for itself!

    I'm selling this Ibanez EW20ZWE acoustic guitar. It's only a 3 months old and in as new condition, but it was a bit of an impulse buy and I'm not really playing it as my fingers don't like playing on it's skinny strings! It's the best looking acoustic I've ever seen, and reviews often say that this is the best acoustic guitar you can get for under £300. The preamp on it sounds amazing, and it even features a balanced XLR output so you don't need to use a DI box if using it live. There's also an on-board tuner! It comes with the original box, spare bridge piece and pins, manual, etc. SOLD Here's some reviews (for the same guitar but in different wood finishes as I can't find any for this exact model!): [url="http://www.imuso.co.uk/directory/reviews/electric-guitar-reviews/ibanez-ew20ase.htm"]http://www.imuso.co.uk/directory/reviews/e...nez-ew20ase.htm[/url] [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar/product/Ibanez/EW20AS-NT+Exotic+Wood/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...xotic+Wood/10/1[/url] [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar/product/Ibanez/EW20/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...banez/EW20/10/1[/url] And photos:

    DHA - DI

    Love those slaughterhouse paintjobs!

    [quote name='bigjohn' post='477109' date='May 1 2009, 03:38 PM']I've got a DHA VT1 bass overdrive that I might be willing to part with. It's basically a valve, and a gain knob, input / output levels and true bypass. Simple but very effective![/quote] These are awesome too, I had a VT2 before I went on the quest to downsize my pedalboard. But for low gain grit I haven't found anything better.

    I have a 121P combo in good condition with a cover and am tempted... But then again I really like the convenience of it... Hmmm...
  8. dannybuoy
    VT Bass is a good candidate. I use mine to make my Markbass amp sound like a dirty Ampeg. I also have a modded Bad Monkey, and running that into the VT sounds awesome.
  9. dannybuoy
    She will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine.
  10. dannybuoy
    Have you got it set for high or low gain? High distortions and fuzzes can make your bass drop out the mix pretty easily, but if you're droppiing out at low gain grit settings then maybe you should try another pedal. I've not tried the Multidrive, but my Bad Monkey does the opposite - the tubescreamer style mid-boost really makes the bass stand out in the mix.

    PM'd also!

    I played my first ever bass on Denmark St, some fretless acoustic, whilst out shopping for an acoustic guitar. That converted me, and I went back the following week looking for a fretless electric, and ended up with a Yamaha RBX from the Bass Cellar. Staff were pretty grumpy though! Went back a year or so later looking for a Squier Vintage Modified Precision, and not one shop in the area had one. I could have ordered one in for £250, but thought why do that when I can get one online for £180 delivered? 'Tis the way things are heading, these shops can't really compete with online retailers. I have never bought a pedal from a store either, they are always massively overpriced. For instance the last purchase I made was an EHX Nano Small Stone for £38 online, and it's £60 in some shops! I just pop in to look at the merchandise, or buy a pick/cable/book if I need too these days...

    This [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=4066"]Servisol spray glue[/url] from Maplin is meant to be pretty good (seems to be out of stock though). I bought a can when I was going to make my own board but ended up buying a Pedaltrain so I've never even opened it. If you want it, gimme a fiver and I'll send it to you!

    They pop up quite regularly actually (on here at least, maybe 1 every couple of months) and typically go for around £150 - £175.

    There's a Demeter Compulator schematic on freestompboxes.org and Baja, the guy who reverse engineered it, designed an optical limiter which he reckons is even better. Just a thought in case anyone wants to try rolling their own!
  16. dannybuoy
    If you go for a pedal tuner, the Korg Pitchblack owns. It's true bypass too, so it won't mess with your tone.
  17. dannybuoy
    That's a proper bargain that is. I don't have/use a rack but if I did I would be chewing your arm off. Colour matches my Markbass too!
  18. dannybuoy
    Which is precisely why I went for the Diamond - it can run at 9-24v, the higher the voltage the higher the headroom. It distorts when run at 9v when you really dig in, but at 18v (using a Diago 9v - 18v voltage doubler adaptor tip) I can't get it to distort even if I boost into it. The Maxon CP9-Pro+ has a similar voltage doubler built into the pedal. It's not just actives that can cause a problem with some comps, abusive playing on a hot P-Bass is enough to clip most 9v comps too.
  19. dannybuoy
    I thought you sold the Moog to Dosi?
  20. dannybuoy
    I've got the Diamond Compressor and it's the absolute dogs danglies. Very quiet, lots of headroom and a nice smooth compression that lets the perfect amount of your attack come through. There's a bass version coming out that has better low end retention (ony really necesary on a 5 string) and a different voicing for the EQ (which I don't use anyway):
  21. dannybuoy
    Minus point for Carbon Copy (or VT Bass depending on how you look at it)... The CC has it's power socket next to the input jack, and the VT has it's power next to the output jack. I want to run these pedals next to eachother and I can't use my funky new EBS pedal connectors to get em in nice and tight as the power plugs get in the way! Suppose I could shove my tuner in between them...
  22. dannybuoy
    Anyone here tried the Peavey VB-2? Heard some good reports of them, but they barely get a mention in the whole 'which valve amp' discussions.

    Got any pics?
  25. dannybuoy
    Well, the Bass Centre site has a tick to say they have them in stock, and they're London SE1 which isn't far from me... Tempted to pop in!
