ped

I looked into this very thing when I was buying a small combo. I ended up buying a Eich BC112pro which has a clever system using a metal rod which locates into a bracket on the back. This allows quite a sharp angle. Very clever design (the rod snaps into a holder on the bottom) Now if you could find a rod to locate into the edge of a port or some sort of reinforced divot then you might be able to create something similar, like this https://www.paniquejazz.com/product/the-stick-minimalist-amp-tilt-back-stand/ These look good too, I much prefer the idea of something like this as opposed to a bulky stand (which seem to be universally poor quality and/or awkward to carry) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Standback-Portable-foldable-Amp-Stand/dp/B000HHUHBI

I will just chime in to say that I have been using Elixir nickels for years, on everything - I find them very fresh sounding and with a warmth that I didn't find in the steels, which I bought by accident once. I found the steels a bit less even and certainly there was an upper mid spike which I wasn't used to.

No I don't think so

When I was searching for Musitronics and Lovetone gear, I got a good sense of the pricing and noticed some units lingering on Reverb and similar sites for years. I made a fair offer on one of them, but the seller responded quite aggressively, insisting he knew the 'market value.' That pedal is still up for sale—and in the meantime, I've owned three others.

Sounds great, nice playing too.

Ah my mistake - I assumed it didn’t because their octavider didn’t either. In that case the off switch is quite useful, assuming it works in the same way (and I’m not making that assumption too!)

It’s not as big as a real one! Typical of Behringer they’ve copied the on/off button but as it doesn’t operate with a battery option the switch is pointless whereas it’s a really useful addition on the originals (you can keep the bass plugged into the pedal and it won’t draw power).

Aye it was partly/mostly because the wanted forum was a magnet for scammers. Lots of people were approached by people saying they had what the member wanted - I guess asking in public you're leaving yourself open to that. We also had to stop the ability to reply, otherwise people would use it to circumvent placing an advert, so it was a bit awkward, whereas now people can discuss potential leads and links to help the member looking for the item as much as they like. It's quite effective because between us we can find just about anything!

Email sent - I think you didn't get the new password reset due to our outbound notification email problem. Sorry - hopefully now sorted!!

The wanted forum requires a supporting member subscription

Looks like the finish was stripped on that one. But, best sound ever, well who can say no

Who is HW?

I like how they've used a Haz pedal in the article as an example of the 'real thing'. Who writes this stuff? Musitronics seem very badly run as a company, and you could argue that this goes back to the root of the problem in the first place. They always seem quite grumpy about 'copes' and yet don't seem to offer anything themselves - or, if you can get your hands on one, I think they've failed to tap into what people like about their original pedals.

Here's a little Meatball demo (after about 1 minute) I have it set to quite lively, no attack, here. Generally I like it to be quite subtle but responsive to any extra dynamics. At about 2:40 I use the Bassballs for a synth sound which works well in almost everything, becoming one of my favourite sounds even though when I first tried the pedal I thought it was ridiculous.

He’s copied my Thunderstangbacker!

Let me k ow if you’re interested https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/505720-blackstar-u500210act-stack-2x10-1x15-£550/#comment-5362182

I’ve got (and I’m selling) the 500w 2x10 and powered 1x15 extension. I’ve used it life quite a lot and it sounds fantastic. Only selling because I don’t need such a big on stage sound at the moment. I’ve found it really flexible, full sounding and ‘3D’ sounding (for want if a better word). Previous amp for context was a mesa 400+. I haven’t used the effects that much but they’re nice to have. I tend to use quite a clean sound and these have tons of clean headroom. I have always quite liked the combo format, too - and they look great on stage!

Yeah I had one a while ago and found it very noisy. Could have been a defective unit or maybe a problem elsewhere but I think I sent it back.

Check out the Bassics BPA 01. There’s one on Reverb now. Expensive maybe but top quality and will hold its value.

Sorry about this guys. We’re hoping to have this resolved soon. We’ll update you here asap.

Definitely some of my faves there

Today I am announcing that we’re changing the name to the American Bass. Make it so.
