Lol. I remember my first band too.........

I got turned on to these guys a couple of years ago by a singer I work with. Our 3 piece even gigged this tune. He nailed the rapping too. Great fun.

One of the advantages of socketing is being able to easily mod the pedal. And I'd rather fit sockets than fry parts. Sounds like a no brainer to me. Thanks.

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1386601772' post='2302011'] Get to it! Si [/quote] Lol, give me a chance! I've got to find my soldering iron, probably chuck it out and get a decent one, and buy a kit. Anyhow, this is going to be a January project. I'll have a lot of free time as the gig front is looking mighty lean at the moment. A couple of questions - I've been reading about solder. Is it possible to get hold of pure lead solder in the UK, as it melts at lower temps. I've read that it's banned now. Or am I stuck with lead/tin solder? And, is it worth getting sockets for IC's and transistors so I don't fry them with higher soldering temps if I have to use tin/lead solder. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself here, but I've done a lot of reading today and they're the two main questions that have cropped up so far.

That was entertaining.

I'm not daunted by the wiring on this. I have already rewired a couple of my own basses, and although I'm new to building pedals, I like to think I'm technically minded enough to cope ok. Hopefully it won't be a one off thing either but I'll take it one project at a time. Thanks for the supportive replies - I'll let you know how it goes.

Here's my board as it stands at the moment. It's ever evolving, but I'm pretty happy with it at the moment.

I'm thinking about starting building my own pedals in the new year. I've seen a BYOC bass overdrive http://buildyourownclone.com/bassfx/bassoverdrive.html and I'm wondering if anyone here has built one of these? The You Tube demo sounds ok. I love the blend feature, that's a must for me. Or, any suggestions for anything similar? Bearing in mind, this is my first attempt. Cheers.

Welcome Ed. I've enjoyed watching your vids for a while now. And please, don't stop showing me how I can keep spending too much of my gig money on nice gear.

Welcome Rik. Enjoy the banter here [quote name='tredders' timestamp='1386362971' post='2299422'] look forward seeing you spending a fortune on the sales forums, like the rest of us! [/quote] Ah, so it's not just me spending too much here. I'm not alone, lol!

I suspect that 'contact Apple' really means 'this device is f***ed, please replace with an iPad immediately'.

I've had no bother taking pedals through airports. Just don't have batteries in them.

Any idea which Darkglass is he cloning?

559 now.

I googled them and found http://www.u-sound.net/?body=sale.php Some great paint jobs. There are a few reviews on You Tube too.

That sucks Dave. But, something will work itself out, you just haven't got there yet. Have the month off to figure out what you want. And go get it.

I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm voting now

If I remember correctly, SFX are in Wimbledon.

I bought a Fuzzrocious OSD from Peter. Another example of a great BCer. Very friendly and great comminucation. He gets my thumbs up. Thanks Peter
