Shouldn't you be using the Pan blocks as opposed to the Send blocks? The send blocks are for the (Send L/R) outputs on the pedal not the L + R outputs. Pan your mod hard left and the pitch hard right?


I also ran into a bit of an issue with using the send blocks. I was trying to send a split signal out to my Meatbox via the send output (L) and trigger the function with FS1.

So far I found that having the block 'off' and Dry Thru @ 0 would send signal to my Meatbox. Seems a bit backwards to me...

That makes a lot more sense! To be honest I hadn’t even clocked the Pan blocks, I’ll give it a go tomorrow but seems like a nice simple solution 😊

I was trawling through eBay’s sold listings for Squier basses to see how often fiesta red classic vibes come up (extremely rarely) and spotted this. Looks like someone was in the right place at the right time and managed to nab bargain of the century, provided its genuine - JV P in fiesta red for 150 quid. 

From now on I’m checking daily, you never know what might pop up!

Erm - I don’t know for sure but what happens if you turn dry thru down to 0?

Thanks for the help, but with a bit more farting around I've got what I needed.

It seems putting either a Send L OR Send R (only works when using one at a time) gives just the pitch shifter coming from the headphone out on the left of the Stomp, every other output still gives a mix of everything, but I can work with that.

Is it just me or are the Sends a bit broken or a bit arcane in trying to figure out what will send stuff where?

I'm wondering can anyone help me? I've got a simplified version of my problem here, I want to send just the pitch shift to one output and just the ring mod to another. I've put a send L after one and a send R after the other but every output on the Stomp is giving me the same thing - a mix of both. Is it possible to do or am I missing something completely obvious?

I've mentioned these on here before but give the Warwick Red Label strings a go - mega cheap and they're pretty good IMO

Hey @knicknack did you get my PM?

If postage is an option I would be interested in the Sandberg?

All sold now - cheers

Got one...great for home use...may not be the best amp for anything larger than your local pub gig but the tonal palette is excellent, as you'd expect from Ashdown.

Great VFM combo. 

GLWTS

Yeah, I think the best use is at home for practice, it's about the right height to sit on and noodle away 😁

Bump & price drop

Smaller Ashdown practice amp that I used to use in my bedroom and on smaller gigs, been sat gathering dust for a few years now, sounds pretty decent and could keep up with a tame drummer, it’s actually quite heavy despite the small size.

The rubber on the handle has come off but the metal holds fine, it’s been like that for ages and hasn’t been a problem.

Any questions or more info just ask.

 Collection on the Wirral or I would be willing to drive a bit to meet up.

PRICE DROP now £75

ABM 500 III Head - Withdrawn for now

MAG 4x10T Deep 50

Toneman 1x15 Deep 50

The head and 4x10 are in pretty tatty but working condition as they’re a few years older than the 1x15, I fell out of love with the sound of it and definitely fell out of love with carrying it all around. But when I busted out to take these photos I was pleasantly surprised with how good it sounds, really rich warm tone, sounded great with my Squier P. 

The 4x10 has some white spray paint on top and the front cover is sort of hanging off. The speakon connector was recently replaced by yours truly, the soldering isn’t exactly he best work but seems to be ok, I tested it and wiggled the wire round a bit and it didn’t crackle or cut out, and I put casters on the bottom to save carrying it too, not exactly heavy duty but good enough to push through a pub.

If there’s anything you want to know just ask.

Collection only from Wirral CH46 but I would be willing to drive an hour or so to meet up, if you want to come and hear it in action I could book a local rehearsal room so you can give it a proper blast.

Just this weekend I put Warwick Red Label strings on my Sandberg, I think they sound great - really bright and defined.

Can't speak to the lifespan of them though as they've only been on 3 days but could be worth a go for less than a tenner 👍

Bought a Tecamp Puma from Enzo, great guy, great communication and fantastic to deal with. 

Would recommend!

Having recently acquired a Sandberg VM5 I can't afford in an effort to reconcile my gear I'm having to let go of a couple of other basses to get my money back.

Next up is this great 6 string Yamaha, this is a fantastic way to have a go at 6 string bassin' if you haven't already, I just found it wasn't for me, great fun messing round with chordy stuff at home and seemed to get on with it fine in the confines of my own house but tried to take it out gigging with me and my hands turned to jelly and I was reaching for a 4 string at the next oppurtunity. Nothing really bad to say about this bass lovely low action and I've found it great to play when my brain wasn't turning to mush.

Active electronics - 3 band EQ, Volume & Pickup pan.

Weighs just under 11lb/5kg.

Any trials welcome, I'm based on the Wirral, if you have questions let me know.

Should be able to post if needed.

Having recently acquired a Sandberg VM5 I can't afford in an effort to reconcile my gear I'm having to let go of a couple of other basses to get my money back.

So here we have a lovely 42 year old (birthday October 23 1975) Gibson G3. Possibly the coolest looking basses in existence in my opinion, but for my 4 string needs was always losing out to my Jazz. It's a player's bass so it's a shame for it to spend most of it's life hanging on a wall apart from the occasional noodle at home. Pretty nice and light, at least lighter than the Jazz bass and sounds ace especially played with a pick. I've got the bridge cover + screws somewhere too I'll dig them out and add them to the photos.

Now for the slightly bad side it has a very slight twist in the neck which I believe a lot of these basses suffer from, but doesn't affect the playability whatsoever and I haven't noticed it at all when actually playing it. I've tried to photograph it but if that photo doesn't suffice let me know and I will try to get a better one.

Weighs about 8lb

Any trials welcome, I'm on the Wirral, and postage is an option as I've kept hold of the box my Sandberg came in from Thomann.

Any questions let me know - photos here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qnJXmEDd0CootsTFyQBIZT_c0qxMYGjM

I’ll come up, I’ll bring my Sandberg VM5, Gibson G3, Yamaha TRB1006J and a few pedals 

Been meaning to drop a line in here for ages to say I’m up for it.. hope I’m not too late! 

Thanks for the help, probably best to give this a miss and wait to get a proper one further down the line

This has just popped up on Gumtree.. [url="https://www.gumtree.com/p/double-bass/double-bass-b-h-400-1-2-size/1265743450"]https://www.gumtree....size/1265743450[/url]

I've been looking to get started on the double bass for a while now, would this be any good for a beginner? I'm worried about the 1/2 size or would that not make much difference in the end?

Surely for £100 it's got to be worth a punt... surely?
