[quote name='Lee-Man' post='130642' date='Jan 30 2008, 01:29 PM']Yeah I have a DB680 + DB728. It was the DB728 that convinced me to order the DB680. If I remember at one point the DB728 was more like the thick end of £3K.[/quote] I've played this rig and Man of man I want it but oddly he turned down my offer of a shiny button and a half eaten mars bar. I will be sending my management in the aguilar direction when it comes time to sort endorsements

Thanks for the links I'll check the forum out later I've already seen the other 2 which is where I got most of my information from I'll be on the look out for one of those heads for you

I found one of these at a local music shop in mint condition with matching 1x15 bass cab which doesn't have the original speaker but is again in mint condition. I know a little bit about the amp they were made ebtween 1964-1965 and are 15.5w but most of the people I've found talking about them are guitarists and from what I've read this is clearly a bass amp. So any extra info would be great, I'm going to go try it on saturday and see how it sounds but I'm looking for a decent sounding vintage practice amp and possibly recording. Also anything I need to watch out for? Cheers

I'd say about 60-80 quid I have one of those in better condition and I think I paid 80 for it from Canada but it was from a friend and I paid a little more because he was strapped for cash and obviously shipping has to be taken into account. The 2000's are really rare but the 1000 and 1002 are the most popular due to the price and the PDS20/20 is the one everyone is after. Your best bet to get rid of it would be the Harmony Central Forums then Ebay if you have no luck but I'd ask somewhere between 60-80 since it is a particuarly old one mine is a dark blue you can probably find it in the post your pedalboard thread. I am quite tempted myself but there is a vintage tube amp with my name all over it. But if you don't get any offers over £45 give me a shout

[quote name='Adee' post='129195' date='Jan 28 2008, 12:14 PM']The MXR M-80 is very versatile as it has EQ / Blend & Distortion Good pedal when used in moderation[/quote] +1 But the distortion side has a mid scoop to it which may mean it will get lost in the mix

I wouldn't bother with a blender between the cost of that and the money the LBM is worth you can get a decent distortion pedal. Blending in opinion while adding bass back in does weaken the effect I use to use my blend pedal with a fuzz and blending it made it sound like an overdrive with a fuzzy characteristic and then I'd switch to not blended and it would be rip your face off distortion, same setting same pedal just switching between blend and not and completely changed my sound. Good distortions for cutting a mix depending on the style and how heavy you want to be would be Catalinbread Hyperpak - Cuts like a kinife through butter Tonefactor/Mojo Hand Mule - Cuts like a knife as well but doesn't get as clean as the hyper but can get dirtier (Roady will be selling his soon if your after one) Tech 21 XXL Bass - Heavy distortion lots of sounds Hope this helps

[quote name='Geddys nose' post='127815' date='Jan 25 2008, 03:44 PM']Roland PK-5 > Rack Synth if you just want pedal tones or PK-5 > Sampler if you want Preset passages, I use the Rack Synth method and it does fill your sound out.Also Thomann were knocking out PK5's for £225 a month ago great price! Si[/quote] Best option but hard to play maybe I'm just a co-ord

EBS would suit you more a few more options, I mean they sound very similar but I found the demetera bit punchier I felt it would be better for slap but like I say there isn't much between them so I go for the EBS because it has more features and sounds and in your case you have a lot of EBS stuff already and they tend to interact well together.

Yeah good choices then, the X-blender will be good on the Multidrive, Bassballs and Microsynth. The EBS is another nice compressor that you migth find better for your setup than the Demeter. What style of music to you play?

It's the features mainly I've spoken to Subdecay a lot about this pedal and we've talked about what is good and bad with every filter pedal I've tried. So this on features up and down, Bandpass, lowpass, highpass, sine and saw wave and sample and hold There is no other filter that has all these features the basic circuit is what is in my Gurgle and Moan and it's a really nice filter and the only other filter I've used that can get that dubby fx25 sound but without blowing up your speakers

the Subdecay Prometheus when released in a month or 2. In theory it should be a better filter than most out now and fixes the flaws that the FM4 and Robotalk have
