I’ve recently been gigging my GT10b again. It’s got a really nice set of stock effects. Still sounds decent today. The parallel signal chains are really useful. Compared to the latest L6 and even Boss 1k offerings though the ‘amp modelling’ is a way off as are the drives, but for everything else it’s a good one stop shop.

Bought a bridge from him. Super easy transaction. Great comms and it arrived almost instantly. Highly recommend.

Just purchased a Sans Amp BDDI V2 from Ewan. Super easy transaction from start to finish with great comms and speedy delivery. Highly recommended.

Hey chaps, this bag fits perfectly: https://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-fems-610-mini-strat-gig-bag/921839

Ok, I’ve used it for some trad Irish music, a bit of Jazz and a few acoustic trios to simulate an upright which works pretty well. I also used it a few times to play Fairytale of New York around the festive period at functions for the same reason. I find it really uncomfortable to play with regular pizzicato for any length of time, so I’ve ended up just playing it with my thumb 👍🏻 - that just adds to the uprightness of the sound. All that said, I’ve not taken it to a gig since the new year as it’s just extra baggage (I’m always looking to downsize where possible when packing for a gig) I suspect sadly it has ended up as a novelty item, but you never know I might have need of it on future gigs?

I love the idea of it and it’s exactly the sort of tone I could use on the regular, but could probably do it with separates. The idea of an all in one solution is attractive though. Also, it’s a limited run only available through Sweetwiter, so unless one turns up here 2nd hand I’m unlikely to ever get a chance to test drive it.

Just bought a Boss BCB30x from Ron. Easy as pie with great comms throughout. Highly recommend.

Bought a Boss RE-2 from Andy. Really easy deal - quick postage and good comms throughout. Item as described (new) and well packed. Highly recommend.

Just bought an Xvive IEM system from Paul. Couldn’t have been easier. Prompt comms and postage. Item is as new as described. Perfect!

Nice one, here’s mine which is quite similar - although not quite all Boss:

Brilliant, thank you!

Thread resurrection. Just tried to visit and no joy. Anyone know if it’s available anywhere else?

Tube ready gig rig - back line and cables fits in a cahon bag, bass on my back.

+1 from me. Thanks @gumtown I’ve followed your many years of work over on the Vguitar forum too. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Just picked up an EA Wizzy 10 cab from Clarky. We worked out It’s been 15 years since we last met to do a Basschat deal. Like the last time this was a very pleasant transaction on all fronts. Let’s hope it’s not another 15 years before it happens again.

Just finished a very pleasant transaction with Marc. He purchased my Danelectro Longhorn reissue. I was able to get one on my friends to act as courier to meet Marc and do the exchange for me. All parties were pleased with the outcome which involved a lot of communication and trust, all which worked perfectly. Thanks again for a hassle free sale Marc. Enjoy the bass!

I’m sure I read somewhere that the analogue Boss pedals are always off when powered up and the digital ones are always on when powered up. I could however have miss remembered that? I’ve definitely started a few gigs with my octave pedal on which has lead to some funny looks from the rest of the band!

Here’s mine ‘76 V4B Magnavox era with a matching ‘75 V4 4x12 cab.
