Selling the sister unit to the famed B3n

Great multifx unit for guitar. Amp and Cab sims are great for recording.

Bought this in April 20 from Andertons  and  hasn’t been used live. No Velcro attached etc.

Looking for £100 posted. Ships with box, power supply and a nifty generic padded bag (13 quid from Amazon!)

Very odd, as the HD cabs aren't real heavy weights anyway (by comparison). Having a quick scan, it only looks like they are lopping off between 3 to 5 kgs compared to the HD's?  Also, they seem to have lost the 4ohm - 8ohm switch on the 112 which I think is the best feature these offered.

Wonder what the price on these will be.

So, I’m after a bit of advice. I’m looking at upgrading to a Helix (or maybe the Boss unit) from my existing Zoom B3n.

Only reason I’m looking to do this is that as much as I love the Zoom, it’s quite limited when recording. Live, it’s just about perfect in terms of usability (and useable tones!)

I’m not looking at busting the bank, so realistically it’s looking like either a Stomp, Pod Go or the Boss 1000 Core.

I like the look of the Pod Go, as it seems like it has more practical usability as a live unit, but lacks the more sophisticated features of the other two.

After reading endless forum posts, it seems that parallel routing may be the deal killer for bass (which the Pod Go doesn’t offer)

Is the lack of this feature a deal breaker for bass? How important (in real punter terms) does this make? And how easy does anyone find the Stomp (or Boss) to use live?

Sorry if this has been covered...I have searched but have only found quite a generic overviews. 

Cheers!

Dang @la bam, you turn over some serious gear dude 😂

Makes me feel ok about any GAS I have!

This is so cool and good luck with the sale bud. 

All of them seem to have a fantastic sparkle finish that you can’t quite see in the stock photos on the site. There are a few “live” photos being posed and the colour looks fan bloody tastic

that blue with the roast maple neck is the nuts....

Some interesting basses being put out by these guys this year....

Quite like the Blue 4 and Green 5'er

Pity no pointy headstocks though! 😂

Hi Mate

Is the price inclusive of shipping to the UK?

Thanks

If you aren't sure what this is, basically its a big a**e battery to power 9V guitar pedals without needing to be connected to the mains. Its been specifically designed to fit snuggly underneath the Pedaltrain pedalboards, so works well with the Nano and Mini boards to create a really portable pedal board solution.

Just a heads up, this doesn't work well with digital pedals (which is why I'm selling to move to a power brick). If your pedalboard consists mainly of analogue pedals, it will last ages on a single charge.

Has velcro strips on (which I can remove if you like). Will post with both daisy chains and USB charger. 

Looking for around £30 posted.

Now £25 posted. 

Will check those, will let you know

Height of pickups?

I have adjusted up and down a bit. Still the same. The various string volume is really noticeable when just using the P pickups. Really big between the B and E.

still can’t understand why the 4 is massively louder overall 🤔

So, I have 2 basses. Both running EMG’s in a PJ configuration. One is a 5 string and one is a 4 string. The 5 has a 24v power supply and the 4 has an 18v supply. 

However, the 5 is substantially quieter then the 4. The 5 also has really uneven string volume. 

The only other difference is that the 4 has the BTC tone stack where the 5 has the passive tone pot.

Can anyone offer any suggestions as to why the 5 has so much less headroom?

I find this post a little bit worrying. We don’t live in a overly litigious country quite yet, but it seems that the OP is floating the idea that barefaced has been massively negligent in some way. 
 

Where does this end, what’s the end point? Do we start suing Valve head makers for putting backs out? do we start going after Ernie Ball because when I changed my strings the wire poked me and drew blood? 

I think it’s a slippery slope.

If the cab had electrocuted you simply by plugging in, fair play, go after them.  If you lifted it maybe where it shouldn’t have...then there is a design flaw that probably needs looking at but not to the point of veiled potential legal action.

Apologies if I’m coming across as too dismissive. I’m just putting myself in your position and wondering how I would react. 

Had it fired up next to the Laney today for some Bi Amp recording. Some serious power 💪

So, kudos to Andertons. Sent my amp back under warranty (for the second time) and their supplier said I can have a brand new one! 

So, a brand new (non rattling) ABM 600 arrived this morning in the post. Very happy.

I like the newer colour scheme and curly font. 

Strange thing though, this one doesn’t seem to have as much “Oomph” on tap as the old one. Have to have the gain right up and volume around 9 o’clock to start getting some air moving where the old one   started pumping with both dials around 6.

Not a major stress as I can drive the input a bit more with a pedal.

same great tone though....🤟

Hi 

would you post?

Also try Sickamps in Harlow. Super helpful and friendly. Helped me massively with a Jet City GUitar head that had been modded badly. Ended up emailing Mike Soldano and everything to get it sorted.

Pedaltrain Mini and Volto purchased on Monday, delivered Wednesday! Excellent comms and a fair price. Excellent seller.

Thanks. I'll take it!

I can't seem to send you a DM?

Hi

Could  you please let me know what the dimensions of the board are? 

Thanks

What’s the resistance on these? 4 or 8 ohm?

I use some 8x10 classics at the rehearsal rooms, with either my Ashdown ABM or my Laney Nexus Tube head. Like Lozz196 says, they are so bass heavy it's crazy. Have to roll almost all low frequency eq off or its really "swampy". Especially off axis. 

I reckon the Ampeg "warmth" everyone mentions about is down to the cabs based on my experience with them.

Hi,

Is it 4 or 8 ohm?

Hi Bill

It’s not the cabs. It was the first thing I checked, using multiple cabs. Also happens when the head is not on the cabs. 

the fact that it’s not volume specific too. Happens when playing certain notes.

definitely seems to come from the cooling fins inside.
