Helix HX Stomp - pretty much unused since purchase a couple of years ago. I don't really use effects or models at all. I'm the second owner. The first, a guitarist, appears to have placed the unit on a combo or similar as there's some fine marking (shallow scratches) to the bottom of the pedal - I've tried to show these in the images. The rest of the case - sides and top - appear to be entirely blemish free. I have the box and all original mains leads/instructions etc. As I haven't used the unit other than to try it to check that it works (and very briefly as an interface), it doesn't have the latest firmware as far as I know. I suspect that updating is a fairly straightforward task. Collection in central Manchester is possible or I should be able to ship with insurance for around £10. Any questions, please just let me know.

Just incredible really - if this was in the UK, I'd be struggling. Superb in every detail

Apologies for the delayed response and thanks very much - I'd concur entirely, this is probably a relatively bright cab and may not suit those looking for a thoroughly vintage tone. It's sort of a good all-rounder but errs on the brighter side in terms of voicing. It's certainly very light - almost laughably so for a 2x10 and is extremely robust and sturdy

Thanks for this and I have to admit, I've struggled to find spec's too. I know that the speakers are Celestion neo but that's about it. To me, the cab has a fairly modern voice, though I only use 'modern' voiced basses, and nearly always active. The cab doesn't have all the poke of something like a Berg HD210 (but nothing does in my experience), or the up-front presence of a Wayne Jones 1x10 or 2x10 cab - in all, I find it fairly even, modern and efficient (and very easy to transport). Apologies, I know this isn't much help and if I find anything further, I'll post here.

Hi Bernard, I’ve PMd

Breathtakingly beautiful - the finish is stunning and love the case - pity the latter aren’t more widely available. I’d love this but no way I can justify the purchase. Good luck though I doubt you’ll need it!

Nostalgia! I remember well the time that Barrett's had the distribution deal for Wal and will have walked past this bass in the shop many times (and very possibly played it) back in the early '80s. This looks lovely, though I've had enough Wal's to know that they really don't work for me. I actually preferred these Pros (especially the 'E's) to the Custom models. What a lovely example, despite the changes, and took me back many decades!

I played some of these back in the day and found them to be superb instruments - a real premium feel and finish - great necks and great J tones too. The finish on this one looks spectacular

Fabulous gig bags - I've been using an F1 bass bag for years. Very comfortable handles, easily stowable straps, and surprisingly light for the level of protection on offer. I've just picked-up the guitar version for a couple of shorties and a headless Status SII. I'm very tempted by this but have no real use for it... though I can think of a way to manufacture one... Great price too IMO!

A matter of standpoint and opinion really (and I tend to concur with Thomastik here), though an opportunity to lift an outrageously lovely bass to the top

Very surprised indeed this is still around - stunning looking, excellently spec’d bass at a bargain price (IMO), and from one of BC’s absolute gentlemen. It wouldn’t be here if I could cope with long-scale.

It seems like a few of us are heading in the same direction! Shorties and lightweight (though I've made more progress with the former)

Thanks - I hadn't really thought of this and would prefer a sale, though it depends what's on offer! I have a few preamps, and only play short scale if that helps - I don't tend to use effects either (though I'm not sure if any of this helps!)
