Thanks Rowbee, yep this one went pretty quickly, the classic vibes are great value for money, even if you buy them brand new, so second hand ones don't tend to stick around for too long.

nice one, pm replied.

bump.

I've just bought myself another Warwick, so in order to stop my girlfriend from giving me funny looks, I've decided to sell my Squier Classic Vibe Jazz bass. It was bought brand new from the Gallery a few months ago, it's in great condition, plays beautifully, and sounds extremely close to its' Fender equivalent. Strings are HiBeams, also fairly new. (see Ed Friedland's review of the Classic Vibe series on Youtube here: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6Cd98DH__U)"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6Cd98DH__U)[/url]. Retail price is around £250, I'm looking for £175 plus postage. And as usual, if you're in London, I'm happy to jump in the car and deliver it at no extra cost. You're also welcome to collect it in person.

many thanks Jonny, reply sent.

the Accelerator section is basically just a glorified Gain / Saturation Control. There are 2 knobs, the first one uses the valve for genuine analog tube warmth and dirt, the second one is for solid state style gain, it's a bit like having a modern and vintage amp rolled into one. According to Zoom, "Combining the raw processing power of the ZFX-3 with the 12AU7 tube accelerator produces richer harmonics and organic tone. By adjusting the mix balance, the thick characteristics of the 12AU7 tube and the striking clarity of the ZXF-3 can be adjusted so that saturation is natural and focused." ps. I am also open to trades if anyone has a small cab, something like a 112.

yep. it does about a million more things than I need, I personally just used it for the tube accelerator and the preamp and the cab simulations.

I had this for sale here brand new and unopened a while back and it didn't go, and in the end I couldn't resist and had to have a mess around with it, I ended up keeping it and doing some recording and jamming with it. It's an awesome piece of kit, the preamp section and the built in valve are excellent - but I still can't justify keeping it. It was bought for me as a gift and I have all the gear I need already (if anything I need to downsize rather than add to my already cramped studio). My original asking price was £190, but seeing as it's been opened and used a couple of times I'm happy to let it go for £175 plus P&P. The retail price is still around £280 on these, this one is well within its' warranty, it's around a couple of months old, and comes with original box, manual, exactly as it was when it arrived. If you're in London you're welcome to collect it in person, and if you're not too far from central London, I will even consider jumping in the car and bringing it to you. I am also looking for a small cab, if you have any cabs you'd like to trade let me know. pics below, any questions give me a shout. [attachment=30274:b9.1ut.jpg] [attachment=30273:inbox.jpg]

yep, the Corvette $$ definately doesn't need any bottom end boost. it took me a while to figure out how to get the right sound from it, the key for me is to subtract from it, and not boost any of it, apart from maybe around 1k to bring out the high mids a bit. but i tend to eq out the boomy bit just above sub level and anything clangy at the top almost completely. anyway i digress... both pedals are now *sold*, many thanks to everyone involved.

In answer to your questions: - nope the Tone Hammer doesn't come with a power supply. (but as far as I could tell it doesn't eat batteries like some other pedals). - comparing the 2 pedals: They have very different characteristics so I'm not sure if I can make a direct comparison, but here's what I thought: the VTBass sounded brilliant with my jazz bass and it does a very respectable impression of the classic Ampeg sound, but it's good for loads of other things too, I found it pretty versatile. I now primarily play a Corvette $$ which IMO doesn't need the Ampeg beef so much because the bass is already very boomy and growly, so since playing the Corvette as my primary bass it hasn't had so much use. (I have to use a Boss EQ with the Corvette to surgically remove all that boomy crap, but it's worth it). The Tone Hammer is a very solid and chunky pedal, it's well built and sturdy, it feels and sounds 'expensive'. It's very analog sounding, and I used it as a DI box at a couple of gigs, which made my bass sound suitably growly and fat through the PA. It can be used as a gentle EQ and tone-shaper, but with the AGS switch engaged the Gain control goes into tube overdrive mode, which sounds subtly fuzzy at low levels, and raw and dirty when it's turned up. Sounds amazing if you play with a pick and like a raw but confident and tight bass tone. (In fact this pedal made me wish I wasn't so sh!t at playing with a pick..) This is all just my own experience and opinion, but I genuinely think they're both cool pedals. I would definately keep them if I didn't need a new amp.

Apologies for the crap photos, both pedals are in perfect condition, both bought brand new, I'm sure they need no introduction, they are both fantastic pedals. I need to get some money together for a new amp soon so unfortunately they need to go. Aguilar Tone Hammer - £120 (*sold pending usual*) Tech21 VT Bass - £100 (*sold pending usual*) I'm in Central / North London, if you're nearby I don't mind doing a drop-off, otherwise please add cost of postage too. PM if you need more pics / details / etc.. [attachment=28974:vt.jpg] [attachment=28975:th.jpg]

pre-ebay bump, i'm surprised this hasn't gone yet.. few more days then it's off to the bay.

mini bump

yep this thing is a beast, i wish i could justify keeping it

I have been given this as a present, this thing is ace but I have no real need for it, and I have my eye on a few other things I need more urgently. It's absolutely brand new, still in the box with full warranty, it sounds fantastic and has a huge amount of sounds and options, the amp modelling is excellent, it also comes bundled with Cubase LE, you can just use it as an FX unit or connect it to your computer and use it as your main input for recording at home / in the studio. The retail price is somewhere between £280 - £315, I'm looking for £190 plus postage which is a BARGAIN - grab it now and save me the bother of having to put it on Ebay.... Alternatively if you're in London and want to save on postage costs you're welcome to come and collect in person.
