    PM'd [quote name='Kingbassist' post='1107374' date='Jan 29 2011, 05:12 PM']Hi, I'm selling a [b]John East J-Retro 01[/b] Preamp. It's the standard Jazz plate shape, with 3 stacked knobs & jack socket so it can be dropped into any standard Jazz bass. The knobs and plate are all in black. The only difference with this one is that I asked for the frequencies of the treble & bass pots to be the same as the [i][b]Marcus Retro 01[/b][/i]. The treble and bass frequencies of the Marcus Retro 01 are slightly lower than the standard J-Retro, the treble is at 1.5 kHz and the bass is at 40Hz. To my ears the treble has a bit more bite and the bass is a bit fatter. All in all a great retro fit preamp for anyone wanting to super charge their Jazz bass. I'm asking £140 (they retail at over £200). The item is in 'used' but very good condition and is in perfect working order. Thanks, Ian[/quote]

    PM'd [quote name='Kinder' post='1105860' date='Jan 28 2011, 08:41 AM']Hi mate. Whereabouts are you? I'm down in the south west in a couple of weeks. I'm definitely interested in this, I could do with a practice amp for work. If you could PM me your postcode I can get a price for a courier to Sutton Coldfield as well. Cheers! Andy[/quote]

    Yep - they are a fantastic bit of kit. [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1105506' date='Jan 27 2011, 08:07 PM']Amazing little amp. Best a out for the money.[/quote]

    Pics available if anyone is not sure what these amps look like!

    Bought this very recently and have used at just one rehearsal so is in as brand new condition as you can get! RRP is £299 but only asking £195 + postage, comes with original box and owners manual. Great sounding little amp which has to be heard to be believed.

    Lowered price bump.

    Why are we waiting, oh why are we waiting - you know the song I mean!! [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1099133' date='Jan 22 2011, 10:21 PM']Not the full journey by train. A good mate wanted to go see Bernie to so I got the train to Wolverhampton this morning and got there at 8.30, then we drove from there... And he dropped me back at the station on the way home. Still long enough. When I order the 6 fretless I'll let you know though I am however off to see Robbie & the land of RIM basses next Sunday for a few Marseer tweaks and to see some of his toys if you fancy a less intensive day out! Pics will have to wait until daylight... Can't get any decent ones under the poor lighting... Tomorrow. I promise![/quote]

    Sunday bump - if I don't get this out of the house soon my Mrs is going to kill me!!
  11. Gunsfreddy2003
    Friday night bump - thought this might have gone by now. A lot of little amp for not much money!!

    They are like rocking horse doo-da around here! [quote name='gafbass02' post='1095389' date='Jan 19 2011, 05:21 PM']I feel I'd benefit from some lessons, anyone know anyone?[/quote]

    Bump
  14. Gunsfreddy2003
    I reckon between £8 - £10 but I am no expert! If you PM me your postcode I will get a proper price for you. [quote name='TomTom' post='1093384' date='Jan 18 2011, 12:50 AM']How much for postage to west yorkshire do you think mate? could do with a little practice amp.[/quote]
  15. Gunsfreddy2003
    I have had this combo for a couple of years and it has only ever been used at home so is in mint condition. This combo houses an 8" speaker and will handle a 4 or 5 string quite nicely to reasonable volume. They sell brand new for £109 so asking £[s]50[/s] £40 + postage

    Recently bought an M-Audio Fast Track from Shep. Absolutey top man to deal with, great comms and very quick posting. I would highly recommend.

    If you are looking for a good filter sound I would certainly not be looking at an EBS Wah One!!! [quote name='Izze' post='1089734' date='Jan 14 2011, 07:33 PM']Hi, I'm an EHX Micro Q-Tron owner. I think it's a pretty nice pedal, but it's far from being the ultimate solution in the envelope filter universe. I was looking for a good volume pedal and I was about to buy a Boss FV500H, but I thought "what about selling the Q-Tron and buying the EBS Wah One?" The EBS Wah One works both as a volume pedal and as an envelope filter. What would you choose? A standard Boss vol pedal or EBS Wah One (selling the Q-Tron)? [/quote]

    Agreed! [quote name='bubinga5' post='1081413' date='Jan 7 2011, 06:59 PM']Been loving this girls bass playing for a long time...at 32 shes pretty sh*t hot... IMO an unsung female bassist..

    Agreed although over on TB I told him not to call it Proton as that is the same name as a very dodgy make of car over here!! I would have gone for ProTron instead as it sounded a bit more Mu-Tron ish. Guess I just have to decide what to complete my vast filter collection with now, Soundblox BEF, 3 Leaf GR2 or 3 Leaf Proton? That is the only real downside with the vintage Mu-Tron that it takes up so much space on board and is bloody heavy too. [quote name='sshorepunk' post='1081665' date='Jan 7 2011, 11:45 PM']Looks like GR1/2 and Proton will be a good match, two different animals, simplicity of the Mutron vs a cooled down Meatball! good vibes on these cos the guy listens to what people want!

    I agree I think I have a very bad case of Filter Fever!! I think that in the end I will sell some on but I kind of want to try as many as possible to make sure that I am not missing "that sound" somewhere!! Mind you the Mu-Tron is pretty damn hard to beat. Really like the Aggie Filter Twin it gets pretty close to the Mu-Tron and being able to blend an up/down filter together gives a much fuller sound. I am pretty happy with it and would recommend it. Did you know that 3 Leaf are about to release a Mu-Tron clone called the Proton? Never used a Boomstick - any good? [quote name='sshorepunk' post='1081377' date='Jan 7 2011, 06:22 PM']You appear to be turning into a filter freak, my friend :-) Hows the aggie filter? Got a boomstick bottom feeder here and waiting for the 3 leaf GR to arrive from US, seems to be taking forever! Tony[/quote]

    Bought an Aguilar Filter Twin but might still find the funds for this as it sounded good in the demo! [quote name='itswac' post='1080279' date='Jan 6 2011, 07:08 PM']Gentelmen, After a great deal of pushing on our part we've finally gotten the Soundblox Bass Envelope Filter listed on Thomann. Sorry that there was such a delay on this! Sadly, we actually lost a few European customers because of this... The link is: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/source_audio_soundblox_bass_envelope.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/source_audio_soun...ss_envelope.htm[/url] If you have any questions about the BEF, send them my way! Cheers, Will[/quote]

    Just to correct Bub's spelling (Eumir Deodato), could also try T-Connection, The Sound Stylistics, Nils Langren, Pleasure and JD73 as a few more ideas. [quote name='bubinga5' post='1080593' date='Jan 6 2011, 11:37 PM']Pretty much what has been said above, some great suggestions there..... i could add Incognito, Jeff Lorber..Ive been getting into Eumer Diadato lately, hes wicked.. Norman Brown.. My particular favorite is Maze...just back to back greatness!...Or some of the later Bobby Womack is great..[/quote]

    I have been following the development of this pedal over on TB and am really looking forward to hearing some sound samples. I thought that the sounds from the prototype were not up to much really if I was honest but I am sure that Spencer will get it right as the GR2 seems to be such a big hit on both sides of the pond. In November I finally got hold of a MusiTronics Mu-Tron III so I would like to A/B them and see if he has been the first pedal builder to actually clone the sound successfully. [quote name='sshorepunk' post='1074978' date='Jan 2 2011, 02:00 AM']3 leaf are known for the Lovetone Meatball clone, the Groove Regulator, it's just moved into it's second incarnation as GR2 There is also a Mutron III clone on the way, called the Proton. Not available yet, but looks like they are in production and may be available for pre order soon [/quote]

    No - not see it anywhere over here yet. I called the UK distributors before Xmas and he thinks that it will be at least March until we see them over here. You can buy them online in the States from Amazon.com and a few other but would then have to pay import and duty and VAT once it got here which would probably make it quite expensive. Seems stupid to release a product get lots of talk going about it and then not have it for sale - I think they have got something wrong there. If you head over to TB there is some good fedback on it - at least they have it over there the swines. [quote name='molan' post='1073369' date='Dec 31 2010, 01:12 AM']Anyone spotted the Source filter for sale anywhere yet?[/quote]
