  1. [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. ***
  2. [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.
  3. 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.
  4. [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!
  5. [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!
  6. 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!
  7. [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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. A 2x10 I'd love to hear.
  11. [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.
  12. Thank you And yes, great pedal. Liked it a lot!!
  13. Any more ideas of straps that allow the body to breathe a bit - but are also nice and wide?
  14. [quote name='andybassdoyle' timestamp='1468963316' post='3094795'] I got to have a noodle on this at the weekend. Fabulous, fabulous neck and beautiful to play. Sadly not for me due to a childhood phobia of custard but someone will be very happy. Of course the Dood is a gracious gent so deal in total confidence... [/quote] Awww Bless ya chap! Funnily, I'm not a fan of custard! - Unless it's those really nice Custard Cream biscuits.. Anyway, it pains me to think that I might have to sell the Combustion first; I'd really rather not entertain shifting other kit. No one interested in this AB1 at all? A lot of bass for a big discount over a new price AND no 9 month wait for a custom order. (This isn't a standard model)
  15. [quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1469007312' post='3094977'] Bump,just shows how bad the market is [/quote] Some serious bargains on BassChat that just aren't selling. Not sure if is just BassChat or the wider 'market place' in general.
  16. Think I paid about £40 for mine on eBay. Maybe I was lucky lol!
  17. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1468999115' post='3094895'] one of them must of realised they are wrong so are staying silent [/quote] They're all on eBay looking for a cheap LS-2!
  18. Just for my future reference: UPC/EAN: [color=#000000][font=roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]609722149648[/font][/color]
  19. You're a star! But yes, you are right - shipping is a killer! - I got in touch with Gotoh a while back as one of the washers on a tuning key had split. No problem, it was 89p for a new one. Shame about the £10 shipping from Japan!! The local (sort of) distributor wouldn't get one in.
  20. They are very similar to computer keyboard button switches from the past, but again, Ive only found versions with short stalks.
