    [quote name='Thor' timestamp='1469272912' post='3097085'] Bugger! I used to play 5's all the time but have reverted back to 4's for the last 12 years or so....I'll wait for pics then to be properly tempted. :-) [/quote] It's in amazing condition, as new save for the brand new hardware that has been added. The pickups and electronics have not been touched or upgraded, I should add. They are amazing already! Ok, I'll do pictures in just a sec!

    Oh sorry! Ha ha! It's a five string!
  3. Both my Quad Capture (another thread) and this my Duo Capture EX for sale.

    This isn't something I was planning to do but, as you will have seen on my other Dingwall thread, I need to clear some debts, including a hefty car service recently. It is a white combustion with maple neck and black pick guard, but has also been upgraded to all-black hardware including premium US Hipshot tuning keys NOT licensed. You will also get upgraded Dunlop Strap Lock Buttons too! The jack plate dish is also black. (Or I can change to Schaller locking buttons if you'd like) [size=5][b]HIGH RES PICTURES LINKED BELOW[/b][/size] I will add a hard case too. Combustion Series II Specifications: •New Dingwall made in Canada FD3n Neodymium pickups •EMG USA BT07 3-band pre-amp •Dingwall USA strings •Alder body - White •Maple Fingerboard with rolled edges - 37 - 34" scale - £45 option •Bone nut •Banjo frets •NOVAX® FANNED-FRET SYSTEM™ (see below) [b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£1000 + Shipping (comes with a hard case and sent in a shipping box for safety)[/font][/color][/b]
  5. [quote name='leroydiamond' timestamp='1469257586' post='3096945'] These sound really interesting. Where did you get your moulds done, and at what price? [/quote] Well I have EBS_Freak and TonyF to thank for pointing me towards the rather awesome Custom IEM Company! http://www.custom-inearmonitors.co.uk They took care of the whole ordering process as well as being able to actually audition all of the top trusted brands. Prices have changed a bit since I got my moulds done but the great news is that my ear profiles are held digitally on file now so if I want to upgrade (which I have done) then no need to go back a second time, unless I want to of course Ear Plugs tend to be around the 140-180 mark I believe depending on where you go - but I truly believe if you get a good set they are worth every penny. I use mine all the time - hmm maybe they'll even work with 'the wife' lol!! The A8 in-ears I can't wait to try!
  6. I love the idea of a four band parametric! Wish more amps used them!
  7. I've just retired my ER15's (The ER bit in the ACS model name is the company Etymotic Research who make the filters. Also known as Elacin or Hearos) They've been brilliant for years but I've just received some brand new 64 Audio ADEL technology earplugs. Very excited about them as they go a few steps further to saving hearing on top of the already superb volume control of filtered plugs. I can't bang on enough how important decent ear plugs are - and when you 'go moulded' you'll never go back! I'm just waiting for my new 64 Audio ADEL A8 IEMs to appear soon too!
  8. [quote name='Delberthot' timestamp='1469134659' post='3096106'] Have you tried Roland UK? I needed a load of bits to repair a pedal a year or so ago and they were really cheap [/quote] I have now yes. £8 - Still steep for a £1.50 push switch but cheaper than a new pedal I suppose. Will order when I get a mo.
  9. I've got a set of the rather awesome 64 Audio ADEL ear plugs too! - They're here already. Will post some pictures very soon.
  10. A really nice transaction with JK, lots of information, up to date tracking and really good up-close pictures of the item. Came shipped in a hard case but also properly packed inside a shipping box too. A little extra effort went a long way and is appreciated! Thank you!
  11. [quote name='Doman' timestamp='1469102237' post='3095730'] You don't want to. It's more a matter of few months than few weeks, so glwts. If it will be up by then i'll contact You. [/quote] Awww Doman, well I hope that you manage to get sorted as you need and should the AB1 still be available, shoot me a line! No problem. *** For those interested, I could entertain a small amount of travel if need be. I'm also down in London around once a month too for meet ups etc. ***
  12. [quote name='Astoroth' timestamp='1469142909' post='3096160'] Hi All, {snip} I am though interested in maybe changing the valves as Dood suggested, I don't use the overdrive that much on the amp cause I think it's pretty poor so maybe some new valves might beef that up. Thanks! [/quote] I haven't ever used the drive section on the Kilo. I've never been able to get it to do what I would like.
  13. Stunning! Love the look of the Z3! Have played a 'Sklar' and loved it, haven't had the opportunity to see what a Z3 is capable of yet.
  14. [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1469099250' post='3095688'] I have one of these, solid bit of kit. That price is a steal! [/quote] I've seen that these units with the VS Preamps on board really hold their value, so in this case, yes - It's a give-away!
  15. [quote name='Les' timestamp='1469097900' post='3095671'] Assuming it comes with the power supply and cables I'll have it please Dood [/quote] Power Supply, Cables and undamaged foam, yup it certainly does!
  16. Nyargh!! he he - Why is it when I'm in dire need to sell kit such nice amps keep popping up for sale! I don't expect this will hang around long!
  17. [quote name='Doman' timestamp='1469037159' post='3095314'] Sorry mate. If I could afford it right now I'd already snap it. That's exactly what I'm after. But I can't. At least at this time. [/quote] I can take a deposit to hold it for a bit.
  18. I went with the 8 battery 12volt version because I knew that rechargeable batteries only supply 1.2v - so, I gain from having two extra batteries in there but 1.2v x 8 = 9.6v. My pedals are getting the power they expect.
  19. There are times when it feels like it is a bit of a pain to plug in power, so I invested in something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-2A-Battery-Box-AA-Battery-Clip-for-8-Batteries-with-DC-Cover-Switch-/291425322546?hash=item43da4d8632:g:biEAAOSw7aBVDQoh You have to make sure you get one with the correct output polarity (or in my case re-solder the power plug cable inside the box) I then bought 8 Panasonic Eneloop rechargeables. I think I managed to do the whole lot for under £20. I now have a stable battery back that I can drop on most pedal boards. It has been a few rehearsals now and I haven't recharged yet! I like that the box also has a power switch. So if this were attached to your board too, then a flick of a master switch will turn everything off. Further more, when it comes to recharge, you won't have to remove a single pedal.
  20. A 2x10 I'd love to hear.
  21. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1469055316' post='3095496'] Try running a cable between the send and return sockets. Those sockets are switched and are a weak point in many amps. [/quote] The Kilo has multiple loops - so it's worth checking them all. From what you are saying Astoroth, it might not be the preamp out/power amp in sockets. Then after that, (if the jumper doesn't fix) have someone (if you're not happy with lifting the lid) check all PCB jumper cables. (remove and reseat). Next up, replace the valves. You needn't go mad on buying the best of the best, but some good quality valves from the likes of Watford Valves will probably improve the sound of the amp too.
