[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1340269777' post='1701872'] My bank balance can't afford it. Not without selling other stuff. I have indulged far too much over the last year or two and now I'm more play, less work there's no way that's going to happen. What do you think? £450? [/quote] 450! thats why i sadly dnt own any moog pedals! thw missus was gonna get me a ringmod but that feel through after we couldnt find a second hand one! andy

sheps bank balance is getting scared!

nice

no presets so there out even if the are nice! andy

[quote name='RandomProddy' timestamp='1340207571' post='1701086'] Yes it can I have a few different minirack effects for this reason. Does the job and usually cheaper... [/quote] how are you swtiching them from the floor? sperate swticher? andy

dude joe bonamassa is awesome! blues is about the guitar really man! but the bass in bonamassa's stuff is always very cool!

still looking for a dubster or super 12 to try out near plymouth andy

[quote name='mike257' timestamp='1340066473' post='1698722'] Can your budget stretch to a used Line6 M9? Tons of reverb sounds, and definitely has the wacky, ambient out-there bases covered. Guitarist I know uses one for all of his 'verb effects and gets some amazing results. Obviously, it does tons of other stuff too, so will find multiple uses if you're an effects-heavy player. If they're too far out of your budget, the M5 has (as far as I know) all of the same effects on board, just in a much smaller footprint and is less easy to hop through presets on the fly. [/quote] im not sure what the m9's are going for now second hand? andy

[quote name='RandomProddy' timestamp='1340044149' post='1698232'] You can pick up an Alesis Microverb for about 15 - 20 quid on Ebay - it's mini-rack style but worth playing with.. [/quote] im guessing this can't be swtiched from the floor tho? andy

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1340032625' post='1697933'] I think it took a knock during shipping... Something kept not quite engaging right. Like every 10th time I turned it on it was missing half the gain. Ry's going to check it over for me and send it straight back out. Wicked service. I'll have it back in no time. Thinking about a Broke Dick Peanut Gallery to replace my Fulltone Bass Drive now. Apparently they sound immense when you a Stache into them... [/quote] i see, that is good customer service!

[quote name='bassickman' timestamp='1340105481' post='1699071'] Yeah. Would you say Would you say it's too gimmiky?! Or is it a nice niche that will work ona pro level? [/quote] im guessing you mean the tube? nope it does add a certain flavour to the sound, but it wont give you drive like a proper tube pre amp might. yeh the amp is a pro piece of kit! lots of pros using them. alternatively if you ment the momark stuff, it def not! you basically have all the markbass amps plus you can do custom combinations! i would have gone down this route if i had the money but i needed to get a powerfull head for around 400 notes and so i grabbed a second hand lm500 for that. try one out you might find yourself finding you like the solid state pre? in which case you can grab a lm3 for about 350 secondhand! andy

the 500 is loud, but then i am running through my 610! but i have it at about 12'o'clock? so theres still a little bit more to go. really nice clean tones, you can also add a little edge with the tube pre, not distorting but just a bit of edge. really nice amp! i dnt need the 800 but if you have the money why not get a more powerfull amp? and the 800 is i think pretty good value! although i might be tempted to get a momark head as its about the same price and you then can basically have all the markbass heads on tap as the modules are pretty reasonable! andy

[quote name='simwells' timestamp='1340040758' post='1698148'] Is it a specific reverb style/sound you're after or just as much variety as you can get? Personally I use the Hall Of Fame which is very popular and I love, personally I don't feel it can be beaten for the price. No presets but a huge range of sounds can be made with it. [/quote] i want a lot of dif reverbs, from wacky to norm, the hall of fame is good but i dnt wanna be going down and changing setting during a gig! and i do want to go from the extreme to subtle reverb. so presets would be nice!

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1340034642' post='1697987'] Iron Ether Nimbus. Do not pass go, do not collect £200.... though obviously it lacks presets. The Eventide Space has to be the ultimate choice! [/quote] nimbus is nice! but its nearly the price of the tc. i know iif i had 350/400 quid id nab the space without thinking about it! but it would have to a really cheap secondhand for me to afford one atm min! how much can you change the markbass reverb can it get really weird like the space? i know the space also has delay and modulation even distortion. andy

i love reverb! and im looking at a few pedals can't afford my first choice the eventide space, but ideally i would like something with presets so i can change the verb. so unless you guys can think of any others im looking at the tc nova reverb, the markbass reverbero or possibly just getting a mutli effect that has banks but i doubt the reverbs will be as good as on the reverb only pedals!? i know that tc have some pedigree with this type of sound but the downside is that you only have 2 presets? compared to 10 on the markbass and probs alot more on lets say an me-50b. also i really like the modulation that you can add on the tc which you can't do on the others! just looking for ppl who have these pedals and what do you think of them. thanks andy

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1340022667' post='1697703'] Doubt mine has even got back to the US yet! I have it's measurements though so I can make space if it doesn't come back before the big move. Are you having kiddy paint, stamped or blank? I assume you are not waiting for a painted one? As soon as the Xero and Frantabit land I'm on it like sonic! [/quote] why did your stache have to go back?! or did i miss something? andy
