  1. TBH, I didn't even try it as the DHA valve pedal arrived first and I loved the sound. If it ain't broke ... I just sold the TC still-boxed/unused on the Effects FS forum for a barg price 🙄
  2. Superior Bass Works. Synthetic gut like strings https://www.bassbags.co.uk/product/deluxe-double-bass-3-4-set-of-strings-gut-colour/?gclid=CjwKCAjw7anqBRALEiwAgvGgm41gUbaLgACZgWFKi1EKH1IezIXGOiOfVhdenQvqtbyANRKN3WmZuxoC5zgQAvD_BwE
  3. Just to close this thread (or at least my contribution to it), I really liked the DHA VT-1 Std valve pedal but quickly decided I wanted to replicate the sound through a 'one pedal solution' valve-driven preamp/DI (preferably with 9V capability) so I could take it on ampless/house rig gigs. So I took a punt on the latest (9V driven) EBS Valvedrive and it fits the bill beautifully. Funnily enough the 'modern' setting sounds better to my ears than the 'vintage' one (which errs a bit on the muddy) but - at least for me, through my solid state Acoustic Image amp - this nails warm Motown as well as creamy OD (I am not interested in high gain distortion). Thanks to all who contributed in this thread. I have ended up with a setup that works for me, although I realise it won't be for everyone. Cheers!
  4. Replied, TC Sold 😁 DHA VT-1 Std still available
  5. Not tried Blast Cults but how about Presto Nylon Ultralights, gut like, nylon-wrapped feel and steel wire core (so mag friendly)? Relatively cheap too at about £115-120 including post, eg Thomann https://m.thomann.de/gb/presto_nylonwound_ultralight.htm Video:
  6. Following advice on the forum on attaining a Motown warm/tubey sound, I bought these two pedals. I only opened the DHA VT-1 (the TC is still boxed and unused) but liked the valveyness (actual word) so much I decided I needed a full valve-driven preamp/DI pedal for ampless or house amp gigs. Hence I have just acquired a new EBS Valvedrive pedal and am very pleased with it. This means the two OD pedals are redundant and so I am putting them up for sale. The TC is completely new/unused and boxed still. Cost me £38. Save about 20%, yours for £32 posted. Can send pics if needed but its in a TC box! * SOLD * The DHA VT-1 cost me £40 and I would like the same (including delivery). Comes with 12V power supply unit and I also bought a reverse polarity adaptor for it so it could potentially be used on a regular 9V circuit (there are mixed views on this on the forum and I didn't actually try it out, so don't take my word that it definitely works!) Here is the previous FS thread and the pedal looks the gnarly same!
  7. "currently setup beautifully with La Bella 760FL flats."

    EA combo: there's an iamp350 combo on eBay thats been there for many months (£345 plus £15 delivery) so would probably take an offer. Looks in need of a good clean-up but thats all.
