Crikey. He's spent a few minutes here and there on that hasn't he...

Beautiful bass too.

I have always wondered why people who don't have never had an issue with a company are really quick to deny the experience of people who did

That's a whole other forum in itself - it applies to everything people find to talk about. "Well, of course, I never saw any -ism at work, maybe you took it out of context." etc.

I can cut them some slack with answering the phone - if one of them is with a customer who is noodling, and the other is in the office on the phone they may not notice it.  If I was a customer in the shop and talking to the staff about something I'd be annoyed if they kept stopping to answer the phone.

I am still patiently awaiting the new website - mainly because when looking at pics of shiny things on my phone it is clunky to navigate.

Yep - me too, phones, hate them for actual calls.

Jez bought my ikkle tremelo pedal and was super patient, despite Royal Mail’s best efforts to imitate asthmatic ants with some heavy shopping.

A beautiful bass but insane prices. The UK in particular is reaching insanity with it's pricing.

 

Import Sterlings are now reaching £1500!

It is worth considering that only 8  ish years ago you could get a USA Musicman Bongo HH for £1400-1500, a Stingray H for £1200-1400 and a Classic Stingray H for £1500.

 

At some point surely people just WILL NOT be able buy.

 

Fender and Gibson are doing the same. 

Some of this is also the exchange rates.

Dingwall Combustions used to be just out of my reach, now they're crazy prices.

What does BFR stand for?

Big Flippin Ripoff! (Best Yorkshire Accent)

Yeah, I had one but moved it on. It went from nothing to very overdriven but I couldn’t get many usable noises from it even with the Harmonics dial.

Thanks for the encouraging words chaps, it really is appreciated. I’ve also got a Barefaced Big Baby II on the way, apparently it’s good for guitar as well so here’s hoping for a real one cab does all solution.

Woah woah woah. Good for guitar as well? Common sense gone all of a sudden...

£13k seems steep!   

 

 

It’s a vintage fender… 

I don’t think you can edit a title without Mod help.

The only real downside to this now is that you get to be the target of the confused: "Why does it matter how heavy the bass is? Why do people always ask?" nonsense on for sale posts!

I'd play a bass made of balsa if it looked cool enough! Airfix colour scheme perhaps...

Oh, my mistake. I misunderstood. Wrong tye

of date…

*hides flowers and closes tab of fancy restaurant recommendations*

Awesome! What an achievement, well done all of you!

Now then!

It still won’t get the bass weights right.

 

3.6 kg is apparently 8lb, 9lb2 and 7.5lb

I refer you to the clothes sizing thread, from which they’ve clearly taken inspiration!

Sold an OC-3 to Andy: quick and friendly process.

Just spotted @Dood’s facebook post about it. Looks pretty clever.

Messages replied to.

OC-3 sold. I’ll work out how to strikethrough text now!

Jinkies!

@Daz39 still after one?

*Cries in impoverished* I’m lusting after plenty of pedals, thanks, but am currently selling rather than buying. It does sound really good on a few demo bids I’ve listened to. SA make some good stuff.

And a 10yr old has already posted a youtube video of them two-handed tapping the Super Mario theme on it…

@Daz39 and @Quatschmacher, thanks! Well I guess that throws me in the debate of C4 vs Future Compact, eh? Lots to read on that from my inexperienced eyes!

Yay. Sorry, i meant to add who made them, blinkin internet needed turning off and then on again!

hmmm just noting the FI will take much more real estate on the board, throw me off into 'bigger than Nano+' territory, sadly.

You can get a smaller enclosure for them if you want.

I was over the moon when I met Lou Barlow at the merch table of a Sebadoh gig. I told him his style inspired me to pick up music again. 
 

He was very nice to me. And liked my story. 
 

Then ten minutes later he came up to me, called me by my name and introduced me to Geddy Lee’s nephew! 
 

I felt special. 

Awesome. Love Lou’s work, top bloke.

I've moved house now and I've seen the mortgage estimates.... please help me out!

All of the pedals are in at least good condition - a couple were brand new. None have been gigged, some have velcro on the bottom from previous ownership.

Pics also show boxes they came in, (some original). No PSUs. 
*Prices include UK postage*

None of the pedals play like butter, nor do they know that you already know what they are, so I'll tell you. One of them is even good for Metal!

Will take payment by Bank Transfer or paypal.

Finally found it: my Feedback thread: Feedback for Daz39 - Feedback

1.

Source Audio Manta: £100 (reduced)

Amazing pedal. A veritable box of mad snakes: filters - low pass, multi peak, phasery bits. Controls for speed, wave type, depth and a combo control to fiddle with drive, resonance, frequency and so forth. Presets and control input for a footpedal too. There's plenty of filter-experts here that can probably get this to make toast. 

Non-original box. (Unoriginal? Derivative?)

2. First of the titchy pedals

Donner Jet Convolution: £15. Clone of the EHX Electric Mistress. It's really good!  No box, so I'll conjure some eclectic packaging.

3. EHX Lumberjack. £35. Mega-Noise-Pedal. Obvs mainly one for the guitar people, but I made this into a pleasing addition to my bass: it goes from low-gain hairyness to fuzzy nonsense. Original Box.

4. Biyang Metal-End: £20. This is err, interesting. I got it as a rather outside gamble on a pre-amp, and it's rather good.  Mid-freq as well as 3 band-eq, the Amp Simulator switch opens up the switches for amp sounds - and there's a good range of usable tones. Also very Shiny. Original Box.

5. Yamaha QT-1 Metronome. £10. I bought this new in err, crikey. 1995. Ticks or tocks (there's a switch) and goes from the laziest of noodles to *insert extreme shredder of choice* speed. But labelled in Italian, so obviously a higher class of time. No Box.

I have supported Wilko a couple of times in times of yore.

 

Guitar heroes? Does playing with David Gilmour count? 😎

We are not worthy!!

Never played with anyone famous.

The only autograph I ever got was John Petrucci’s on my Travelcard in a Denmark St store the night after a gig (Touring into Infinity, ‘98?).
