  1. Just playing devils advocate here. I sometimes think when selling we forget that we are also asking someone that doesn't know us to trust us. Trust has to work both ways. Buyers and sellers can be scammed. Yes, the guy seems to be a bit of a time waster, but maybe he has the same feeling as the OP, in that it might be a scam. Tricky situation. I much prefer to only deal face to face for more expensive items, and if i place an ad saying that i stick to it.
  2. Sorry, wrong thread.
  3. Nah, only 86 effects, waste of time lol.
  4. I love my Helix, best swirly thing ive ever owned, but im talking about the TC Electronics Helix Phaser, not that big lump of a thing Line 6 make 🙂 As its tone print enabled its very versatile. Saying that, i will be replacing it with a Source Audio Lunar (or any of the modulation pedals). This allows up to 6 presets, so will do chorus as well as flanger/phase etc.
  5. Thanks but I got a new one so no need for that.
  6. There is a large thread over on TB about these pups. Loads of fans and plenty of info and sound clips.
  7. i just didn't like the tone. Nothing more than personal preference i guess. I thought the P sounded bland and a bit lifeless. Might even have been down to the bass they were in. As i said, once i replaced it with the DP122 the bass came to life.
  8. I had one as part of a PJ set in my Squier VM PJ. Wasn’t too impressed with it to be honest. Ended up replacing with a Dimazio DP122 and was much happier.
  9. People go about things in different ways, why cant we all just get along and not feel the need to bash others. It’s a shame BC has threads like these. Not everyone has the luxury of experience or the ability to just know how to word an ad etc. The way I read that ad is the band already exists, but two of the musicians are being changed. Cant see how that’s ‘forming a band’. People need to get a life and get over themselves.
  10. Want to explain that that? Just so we are on the same page. No bother if you dont.
  11. And thats why i asked 😉 seriously, if i cant get it on my board then what’s the point in having it? I had thought of this, but if I decide to use a different bass then I’m back to square one. It was my first thought though.
  12. Cheers Paul. I’m rather keen on the Joyo at the moment, as it seems a bit shorter. Thats the dimension that is most important to me. Naxos, thanks, both are larger than i can fit without a bit of a shuffle.
  13. Thanks. Ive had two, and loved them until they broke. Ive also got a couple of Snarks and two TC E Polytune clips, so I’m sorted for this type. Never owned a pedal tuner before so i want to get one now, while i still have a need.
  14. We have started doing a coupe of songs where i need to drop tune my E string to D. At rehearsals i use a clip on tuner and that works fine (with the volume tuned down), but I dont tend to keep the tuner on during gigs. So, i need something on my board, with a mute. Having gigged for many years without needing a tuner, i dont feel i want to spend TC money on this, as its purely for my E string. don’t need all those strobe features either. I have good clip on tuners for doing set ups etc. I like the look of the Joyo Ironman tuner. https://www.amazon.co.uk/JOYO-JF-326-Irontune-Ironman-Chromatic/dp/B014HCGBOK/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1535051785&sr=8-3&keywords=joyo+tuner Not only is it cheaper, its so small i can easily fit it on without having to move too much. I know there are cheaper though, but they are slightly larger, so just wondered what the more budget conscious giggers use, and if anyone has any thoughts on the Joyo.
  15. Based on this one comment i went and ordered a COG Knightfall 66. As much as the mini appealed to me i love the idea of the two switchable Gain/level stages. It should arrive this week.
  16. Im going to keep things as they are for now. If it does become an issue ill look in to changing the doors over. I feel a bit more comfortable with using the whole unit rather than a £65 door lol.
  17. Yeah. I decided not to email them again and just get on with it. i have noticed that the new one doesn't work with some of my rechargeable, even though they are all the same brand (that ive used for a good few years). Fine with Duracell though so not a big deal. I was going to switch to using those anyway.
  18. Well I never got a reply from Line 6 (Note to self, dont buy line 6 again) so i ended up having to buy a B-stock transmitter from Gear 4 Music. Cost £65 but as long as it works its cheaper than buying a new system. Taping the old one up was beginning to be a pain for changing batteries.
  19. I’m happy to play at reduced volume at rehearsals, me and the guitarist try our best, but unfortunately my drummer only has one level. When asked to play quieter I’m normally met with a black look and the explanation that ‘any quieter and I might as well use brushes’. Unfortunately he doesn’t own any......
  20. A bit of Blu tack under the knob flange (oor err 😯) should stop them turning unless forced.
  21. I think that's definitely the reason for running the PL at 18v. I read loads of complaints about clipping at 9v with this pedal.
  22. Way Huge Pork Loin works better with 18v 😉
  23. I tired one once and although i agree with you, i dont find i really touch EQ when im playing live so it wouldn't be an issue.
  24. Ive been using a F1 head for years (brought off here). Never had an issue with it and never had to turn it right up. Obliviously thats no indication of loudness as such, but its a head i will never part with (although i have other heads i also use). Ive never used a multi cab setup, so ive only used my amps with single cabs, but ive never had any issue with people not hearing me. I had a SA450 and LMII, and there is a difference between those and the F1, but i find the F1 is a bit punchier. especially on the low notes, but not quite as full and warm, but as i always run a BDDI or similar in front with the amp EQ pretty much flat all of those amps have worked just as well. I would love a F500 though.
  25. I heard they bungled the intro.........
