Yeah it's wonderful but I'm considering a Noble pre amp - have my whole rig on my pedal board type set up
Thanks for the comment

What a coincidence - despite my recognition that I really prefer SS, I too have been thinking very seriously about a Noble to use with Fender style basses! I'll let you know if I pull the trigger (and the Agi 680 really is a tremendous pre in every way!)
I had one of these before I moved to Millennia - the DB680 is a staggering pre - beautiful if you're looking for valve tones (it took me a long time to realise that I wasn't!)
Brilliant - thanks very much for the details - just love Lakland necks and very cool that they've accommodated 35 in a compact package. Tempting - can't see this lasting long - superb quality throughout
I've played a Gibson Ripper for much of the past 35 years - inspired by Patrick Djivas of PFM (currently in the UK for two nights after a break of nearly 40 years). Have a listen to Chocolate Kings for a bit of Ripper clank. Djivas was reckoned by Pastorius to be the world's second best player too
SOLD pending payment - An almost new set of TI flats - 9 weeks old but with just four or five hours of play. Cut for a Fender P or J. Silks in generally good condition but some minimal fray/wear at contact points. Shipped in the UK for £20
If you get a chance, audition an AER Amp One - an extraordinary unit. 200 watts and a 1x10 but the performance is genuinely staggering. I've seen a lot of players just bewildered at what comes out of an unassuming and compact (but heavy) little box. There's a lot of DSP and filtering going on but it's not just the power - the tone is something to behold (pure and transparent and very capable of an old school vibe if necessary). The compressor is excellent too. They come up on here for around £650 to £700 (but fairly occasionally)
This is a rig of exceptional beauty - I'm amazed it's still here. Possibly the biggest bargain on BC just now. Maybe advertise on a guitar-oriented board? The amp is fantastic for guitar
