    Love this idea for a website, this is going to be mine at some point next year! [url="http://s1087.photobucket.com/user/mike_woodhouse89/media/my_custom_sandberg_zpscd9e2300.jpg.html"][/url]

    Sorry been working at Bestival over the weekend, now back to reality and all PM's replied to! It looks like splitting this is the best option so I'll amend the original post with individual prices for collection from my home town in Croydon! If people want it posted I'm sure we can sort something out.

    You have a P.M

    Ha, if it was my gear I would trade it all for bass gear. Unfortunately it's the bands so cash is king this time i'm afraid!

    Hi guys, ***Price drop to £450!!*** So my band has split and it's time to get rid of our P.A as we no longer have any use for it all. It's all in working condition, some have cases and so are in better condition than others. This is perfect for a band touring the pub/club scene and the prices are listed with the photos Pics: £450 - RCF's - Little bit of cosmetic wear from being lugged about in a transit. These are loud and paired up with the db sub, they work a treat!

    No that's only when it's in standard mode. If you know what setting you're amp's supposed to be at (Or by just googling it) it looks like you can custom set it. So you can have your valves either running slightly hotter or colder depending on what you want out of them.

    Hi all, I've recently had my AD200B re-valved and the tone and gain breakup level has completely changed! Obviously that's down to a multitude of reasons like different valves, different bias levels etc.. And I'm not saying it's changed for the worse as it still sounds badass, it's just 'different' After having a word with my regular tech and having a browse online about valves, biasing etc.. I stumbled across this: http://www.orangeamps.com/products/accessories/amplifier-management/divo-ov4/ From what I can tell, this basically manages your valves and keeps them on form all the time. It also looks as though you can swap out the output valves independently without needing matched valves in pairs or quads and you can go a step further and have completely different valves in your amp for different tonal possibilities I.E KT88's paired with 6550's. Does anyone have this installed in their amp OR have any experience with it?

    Thanks for the interest everyone but this is now sold!

    [quote name='longtimefred' timestamp='1366041666' post='2047627'] [sup]dude, dont suppose you could comment on how the od and eq compares against the Para Driver could you? i have been sniffing around one of these or the B7K but struggle to test them out anywhere. I have a Para Driver already you see. This grinds up quite nicely but im really interested in how clean these things leave your original signal whilst adding the filth! [/sup] [sup]Nice one. [/sup] [/quote] Sure man, I've always found the dirt on the B3K to be much more aggressive and cuts through the mix without tweaking far easier than the paradriver. Although the paradriver is a great OD in it's own right, once you compare it with something like the B3K in a live situation, there's no competition. I've actually completely sacked off the drive section on my paradriver (as you can see in the photo because I preferred the aggressiveness that the B3 had) On the other hand, for recording I go the opposite! The B3k is almost too aggressive straight out the box so this is where my paradriver's drive comes into play a bit as it can replicate my Orange tube sound quite well. Although it's not the same (let's face it, you never can find THAT illustrious tube sound without an actual tube amp) it's close and if you want a much softer, warmer driven tone, the paradriver can give you that very well. Hope that helps mate.

    This beast isn't currenty not getting enough love on my pedal board as I have found the sweet spot for grit on my Orange amp. It's in good condition, has velcro on the bottom and has been on my pedal board since I got it. Comes with packaging/papers etc.. I am really after a compressor and the MXR looks like the winner. So if anyone has one I would do a straight swap for it. If not, £170 posted. Best, Mike.

    I've never owned a Little Mark III as such, but I have used Mark bass extensively for 4-5 years. Don't bother with the filters, they sound great when practicing on your own but I always found just like a few posters have said earlier they suck out mid's BIG time. The trick with these bad boys are to dial in a bit more mid's using the low and high mid controls and kept everything else pretty flat (whilst taking into account the room and it's response to your bass cab) that way you will keep a lot of you natural bass tone with a bit of extra to punch through the mix. Basically just use your ears during sound check and have a play with the bass and mid control (Whilst the full band is playing). You should start being able to hear it ping out a bit better depending on the balance you get between the low and high mid controls.

    Hi guys, So I have an Orange AD200B paired up with an Orange 4x10 & 1x5. When I first got this amp it would output crazy loud dB volumes then the preamp and master were set to maybe half. (12 o'clock) Now, I'm struggling to get half the volume when the master is set on full and the pre amp set to about 3 o'clock (Any more and the preamp valves are driving to much giving me distortion) Any ideas what the problem might be? Could it be a classic case of one/all the output valves being shot? How can I tell if it's a valve? OR Could this be a much more serious problem? Best, Mike.
