    Are these both spoken for? I’d take both if not!

    I’ve got a load, still in the cellophane! Give me a day or two to dig them out and get some pictures. I have some 1590BB as well, can’t remember which colours but i’m sure there’s an orange one there if that tickles your fancy

    What can I say about this pedal that hasn't already been said? Super cool and unique filter used by Flea and lots of other people. No other filter I've come across sounds quite like this little green beast, and it also does the famous "dub trick" of turning your bass into a subby monster by turning off the sensitivity so the filter doesn't open. It's been well used in it's ~30 year lifetime with a few bumps and scrapes in the finish, but all is working as it should. Somehow the notoriously "difficult to keep hold of" battery door is still intact on this one! No velcro, and rear sticker with serial number still intact also. Really cool pedal that I owned a number of years ago, and wanted to revisit it out of nostalgia! I've had my fun with it here at home, and now it's time to pass it on. Boss to 3.5mm power adaptor included. Looking for exactly what I paid for it from here a few weeks ago: £60. Add a £5er for delivery, or can be picked up from Ickenham NW London.

    Job lot of Lava Tightrope Solderless cables. 28 cables of varying in length from approx 2 inches to 2 feet, plus 1 long (2ft ish) George L's cable that I found in a drawer that i'll throw in. Most worked fine the last time I had them on a board, some probably need to re-assembled (haven't got the time to test them all at the moment). A couple scraps of used cable that can be trimmed/reassembled into new cables, and one purple bit of cable that has never been used. These are super simple to put together, there's plenty of videos on YouTube of the process. Will include one of the cable stripping tools as well. £200 + postage for the lot. The current Lava cable sets are £60 for 10 jacks/5 cables, so this is a pretty good deal.

    If that was a 5 string, I’d be posting to say that I wish I could afford it! 😂👍

    Regarding trades, i’d definitely prefer cash, but i’m always open to hearing potential offers in case it’s something I really want! I could do some recordings over the next few days possibly. Rest assured it sounds like exactly like you would expect it to!

    Original V1 Aguilar Octamizer - Pretty good condition considering its age! My favourite octave pedal of all time. Works perfectly. Only selling as I have two, which just isn't necessary with the way I'm going gear-wise. Grab a bargain for what is, in my opinion, the best octave pedal out there. £85 posted, or collect/meet nearby Ickenham UB10.

    Up for sale is my immaculate Funky Puppy. It's pretty much as new, with probably less than 2 hours play time on it and not even got velcro on the bottom! I used to own both Chunk Systems pedals (Brown Dog Fuzz and 00Funk Mk2 Envelope Filter) years ago, and wanted to revisit the sounds for nostalgia's sake. This pedal is a combination of both in one box, and sounds exactly as I remember them. Super cool to have the "Link" function on a footswitch (the original pedals had to be connected via cable through a dedicated link jack). The envelope gets pretty wild, and the fuzz covers everything from gated and synthy to fat and heavy. Combine an octave pedal with it, and you are in synth heaven! Only reason for the sale is that I have too much gear, and not enough time to play with it all! The Really Good Pedal Co. site will give you all the info re controls and specs. These are not being made at present (I believe the builder is taking a break), and if they were, you would also then pay shipping, import duty and VAT from Australia like I did, so I think I've priced this pretty fairly. Either of the Chunk pedals this is based on go for well over that alone! Asking £250 + postage. Based in Ickenham, NW London if you want to collect/meet nearby.

    Best overdrive/distortion i’ve come across. Does everything from clean boost/eq to all out fuzz, and does it well 👍

    My mini "Essentials" board from a recent function gig I did. Loving the Neptunium! Gigrig Generator underneath, mounted on a Rockboard Duo 2.0

    Precisely this. If the Amp is imparting an integral part of your tone, then it stands to reason that you might want certain effects to colour the tone you’re getting from the front end of the amp, ie delay, modulation etc. If the amp is literally just amplifying your board tones, chuck it all into the front of the amp.

    Met Peter today in Sheffield to buy his SA Spectrum. Hand delivered to the venue i’m playing, and a nice chat about pedals and synths! Top marks. Thanks again Peter!

    Yes should be possible with the MC3

    If you went with a Morningstar controller, you could plug the expression pedal into that, and then the expression would be sent via MIDI. The CME could plug into the Morningstar, which would just become part of the MIDI chain

    What an excellent deal! If I didn't already have two of these I'd be biting your arm off! This won't last long.

    That's my take on it. The "Growl" knob is the "pokey/synthy" type of octave, the "Girth" is the more organic "fat/sub" kind of octave. Really useful having them on separate knobs and being able to fine tune the amount of each. The Aguilar Octamizer does the same kind of thing, but they are combined onto one knob as a "filter" that goes from subby and fat, to more synthy and pokey as you dial it up. Both pedals are fantastic, and I really like the mid boost switch on the MXR. I went for the Aguilar and love it so much I bought a second one, like Steve said, for being able to have blended and sub only options at my feet without having to change settings.

    Would prefer to sell all together as one unit at the moment. Will be going up on eBay soon.
  22. Higgie
    If it's anything like my my old original Musitronics Mutron III it inverts the phase, so a clean blend can actually make things worse, unless you have something like the Xotic X-Blender that has a polarity switch to flip it back again!

    Bought Ken's Moog Little Phatty and he was absolutely great to deal with. Top bloke!

    Here we have probably the best value for money rackmount mixer/IEM rig there is. Inside the rack is: Behringer X32 Rack Behringer S16 Stage Box Behringer P16D The rack case has had an IEC input mounted on one side, so you can literally take the rack lids off and plug power into the side, and you’re ready to go. 32 XLR inputs, 16 XLR outputs across the 2 units (Mixer/stage box), as well as various 1/4” Aux ins and outs. The P16D can be used with Behringers powerplay monitor units, allowing musicians to have stereo monitor mixes without taking up any of the XLR outputs. Add your own router, and everyone in the band can connect to it with an iPad/iPhone and the X32 app, allowing everyone to mix their own IEMs, and the sound man to mix FOH from an iPad out front, drastically reducing sound check times. Also a great unit to have in the studio to record and track multiple instruments. It has the USB card installed so it can be used as a 32 In/32 Out audio interface. Used with a laptop you can record your live gigs, while still taking care of FOH and everyone’s monitoring. It really is a great bit of kit! I’ve used X32’s (not this one) on all levels of gigs, from small functions to large theatres, and they are exceptional value for money. This particular unit has only done 3 gigs with me since I bought it, and was originally a “backup X32” rig of the guy I bought it from. I bought it to use as an IEM rig for a project I was involved with that never ended up doing much live stuff, and I kept it around just in case as it’s such a handy bit of gear to have. It’s in excellent condition, with the only thing of note being the little tab on the XLR Input 8 being missing. The input still works perfectly. If you or your band are looking to take the plunge into the world of IEM’s, you can’t go wrong with these.

    My favourite cab ever! Wish I had a use/space for this as i’d nab it in an instant. Whoever buys this is in for a treat!
