    [quote name='tredders' post='1279725' date='Jun 23 2011, 03:41 PM']Could well be interested in a swap - does this also do slightly less full-on fuzz? I'm thinking more of warm, valve, mild overdrive? All of the Youtube videos seem to show mahoosive fuzz, which isn't really what I'm after. However, if it does slightly more subtle, then it'll do for me, I think.[/quote] It's really quite a full-on in your face fuzz pedal that's great for bass, but it's quite flexible and imho does a reasonable impersonation of a valve type overdrive. It might not go quite as mild as you may like as 'mild' is quite subjective! I also have a Boss delay pedal that's off my board at the moment if you fancy one of those?

    I'm thinking about selling my Earthbound Audio Supercollider if you fancy a swap? Like this, but in green -

    [quote name='2x18' post='1278174' date='Jun 22 2011, 09:46 AM']All good basses but different soundwise and feel! Strongly suggest you try them first if possible -- I am sure if you ask nicely any Basschatter local to you that has one would let you try them out! Will.[/quote] Yep, get down to a bass shop or local basschatter and try them. They will sound different as well because of the acoustics in the shop and the rig you play them through. If you're undecided on which 'sound' you want I'd choose the one which felt right / the most comfortable in your hands to play - Happy Shopping!

    There's been quite a few threads about the Orange cabs - this one says what you need to know - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=124993"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=124993[/url]

    [quote name='Steff' post='1265169' date='Jun 11 2011, 06:00 PM']I think I've tried a WT550 and it wasn't bad at all, but that was with another speaker cabs I had by the time. Gotta check if it does 2oHm though.[/quote] It does 2 ohms

    Ever tried an Eden? - I had a WT550 - an excellent, powerful and versatile amp with fantastic EQ - A WT800 might be your nirvana?

    If they really wanted to be radical they would let you change the titles of the songs and edit the tracks to change the lyrics. Much childish fun to be had!

    It might be worth asking Steve about the cost of a custom build - you'll get exactly what you want - [url="http://www.stevesamps.co.uk/wp/"]http://www.stevesamps.co.uk/wp/[/url]

    [quote name='ahpook' post='1235250' date='May 18 2011, 09:30 AM']i thought questions about the price of the item on sale here were meant to be dealt with by PM. [i]5. If you believe the price of the item is too cheap/expensive, then please PM the seller as to why. Do not ridicule or undermine the seller by posting how much you think it's worth or how much it can be gotten for elsewhere, the laws of supply and demand will determine if the item sells at that price.[/i][/quote] You are right!

    I'd normally go for a blue - but the red looks a whole lot better there.

    Calling Mr Bongo....... come play with me If I can't trade them I'll put the Stingray up for a straight sale and head down the Bongo shop for a new one!

    I only picked this up earlier this year and it's a great bass - better than described in Challxyz's original selling post - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=120090&view=findpost&p=1102108"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&sho...t&p=1102108[/url] Gigged but in very good condition, 1 small ( 5 p size) chip on rear of body, come with MM case. Will add more pics if required & when I can find my wife's digital camera! Newly strung with DR Sunbeams which have only done about 10 gigs. I'm only selling it because the band I've just joined do a few numbers where I need 24 frets and my hands are too small (and I'm just not that good!) to play a 6 string. What I'm looking for in particular is a Bongo 5. Nancy Johnson very kindly lent me his Bongo 5 and I got on with it really well - so Bongo me! I like Black / Stealth / Black Sapphire etc with rosewood necks HH or HS or H and am looking for a more or less straight swap but happy to talk. Bongo me please!

    I've always secretly wanted an hour in private with this guy: Although it's purely sexual.............. Anyone know who he is or has his number?

    I wonder if there's a Sue Ryder shop in Hemnesberget? He might get lucky!

    [quote name='Paul S' post='1184848' date='Apr 1 2011, 03:05 PM']Interesting - I haven't read about this - does the LM tube do something similar to the Trace Elliot 'Valve Drive' thingy where you can overdrive it? Thanks Clarky. I've pm'd Alex so let's see what he says.[/quote] You have a choice of solid state or tube preamp with a 'blend' control to dial in the warmth and a gain knob to pump it all up. IMHO there's a little less boost/overdrive than the TE offering. I was also quite impressed with the Genz Benz Shuttle amps and also the Orange Bass Terror - but it's up to your ears really
