I really didn't like the EX-7 - It didn't seem to track too badly, but A) I tried it with guitar, and B ) the feel of the treadle under your foot really wasn't the best. The WH-4 [i]feels[/i] better, but the sweep range is really limited. The WH-1 has the largest sweep range of the lot, tracks superbly, and ultimately, just sounds a bit warmer and less cold and digital (despite being a digital pedal itself). If you're after a Whammy, and want the best performance from it, I really would recommend saving up the pennies for an original. It's soooo much smaller than the re-issue too. My face actually did this the first time I saw one in real life:

Digitech Whammy £121 Digitech Expression Factory (EX-7) £100 Digitech RP350 £119 I understand that the Digitech Whammy can do a little bit more of the EX-7 and RP350 in terms of intervals but there is no comparison between the Whammy and the other two regarding the other functionalities. RP350 is for guitar but if it works like the other Digitech multi-fx units, as far as the cab/amp models are switched off, it works great with bass. Apart from the Whammy included in the RP350 there are reverbs, modulations, delays… The distortion functions of the EX-7 can be switched off leaving a pedal with Whammy + other 6 expression-pedal functions. I am wondering… what’s the point on buying the Whammy when with the same money (or less) I can have much more? Am I missing something?[/quote] The Whammy has about 20 Pitch shifting and Harmony functions? The EX-7 only has the 2 octave sweep mode IIRC, and the RP350 surely won't have all the features of the Whammy either. Not to mention it's probably more sturdy than the RP350 too. Edit: Just thought I would say, I've owned the WH-4, I tried the EX-7 in the shop, and I currently own a WH-1, which as Ant says, is indeed King.

Will take pics of my gear over the weekend, as there will be a new acquisition to the family

[quote name='BassManKev' post='177810' date='Apr 16 2008, 12:50 PM']higgie i just dug out that looper pedal you sold me ages ago and with a quick bit of soldering, its working again woooop[/quote] Nice one Kev!

Red Onion can most certainly make you one. It's just an A/B Box and a TB loop in one pedal. I would recommend www.loop-master.com though as the prices are great and so are the products.

There is clone of the Boss Slow Gear called the Guyatone SV-2 Slow Volume. I have one that I might sell, as I don't use it that much. If you're interested, PM me!

My Bass teacher has a Squier JV Jazz bass that used to belong to Jack Bruce. It is the nicest Jazz bass I have ever played. It's fiesta red with a tort guard. It's by no means perfect, little nicks and dings etc, but there is just something magic about it I have a feeling that the spirit of Jack Bruce is trapped inside the pickups

I'm in Chingford. Could possibly make it. I have 2 Mutron III's, an Akai Deep Impact, an original Digitech Whammy, Demeter Compulator amongst others that I can't be bothered to list

[quote name='The Funk' post='174970' date='Apr 12 2008, 03:04 AM']Apologies in advance for dragging up a very old thread but I just received a vintage Mu-tron III in the post yesterday morning courtesy of TimmyC. All I can say is bloody hell, that is the sound I have been dreaming of for years. Amazing.[/quote] I recently acquired A second Mutron III - I was going to sell it on, but I decided to try running one of them with the filter going down, into the next one going up...Let's just say I'm looking for a board that can accomodate 2 Mutrons
