    You're gonna get a hundred different reccomendations from a hundred different users, but it sounds like you're looking for more of a low gain OD, perhaps even dirty boost territory, the Bad Monkey is great for this, at low gain settings it adds a lovely tubey warmth and growl, but it can do more full on OD as well, without actually having tubes which would cost you 3 times as much. Mine was modded by one of our members, silent fly, and I love it, but it's really up to your own taste/budget. The cream Pie or the Barber LTD special recipe are some pricier boutique options too, there's plenty of choice out there

    stupid geography, this sounds just right for me, but i'm down in canterbury in term time and york in the non-term time, oh well

    This sounds pretty interesting, definitely my kind of thing, but what kind of commitment are you looking for? I'm fromyork but I'm at uni canterbury, I'll be back in york over the summer, are you just looking to get some songs written or have you got gigs in mind?

    [quote name='Rowbee' post='466820' date='Apr 19 2009, 05:11 PM']Forgive my ignorance but is the XO the latest model like the one on the EHX website? Is it true bypass? That's pretty important to me.[/quote] Sorry you missed out, yea the XO is the newer small one shown on the site, the general consensus is that the old one sounds better, warmer and more analog, but it has a terrible bypass, is the size of a small island nation, and uses a non-standard power supply. The new XO one apparently (I haven't played one) doesn't sound as good, but it's small, true bypass and takes 9v, so i spose it's a matter of choice, one thing i'll say is the bypass on the old one IS terrible, very noticeable, if I'd kept it I was gonna do a true bypass mod, apparently it has a true bypass switch, it's just not connected for true bypass, but if you're not good with soldering you could just get a truebypass loop pedal, they're pretty cheap

    and sold, pending usual

    Deciding to part with my Microsynth, it's a great pedal but I wanna try getting a synth sound with separate pedals. It's the older big version, got the box and I'll include the 24v power supply, it's in great condition, a very light scratch on the top but that's it, works perfectly. I'll get a better pic up tommorow: Yours for £125 posted, I'm looking to replace it with a mid-range octaver (oc-2 or something similar) and a decent filter (discumBOBulator or bottom feeder, that kind of stuff) so i'm very open to trade offers

    There's always the junction, bit out of the way from town though, and the bands aren't always to everyone's taste, haven't been there in nearly a year though, it may have changed a lot, used to do a lot of good gigs there though

    If you feel handy with a soldering iron, you could knock one together yourself, there's a post with some schematics up in the forums somehwere edit, found the link: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40389&hl=schematics"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;hl=schematics[/url]

    Shameless bump
  13. bobbass4k
    Hey, I'm looking to trade my cool cat, it's a great pedal, i'm just not getting any use out of a chorus, so I'm looking to trade it, ideally for a flanger or a phaser, but i'm open to other things I'd consider letting it go for a decent cash offer, but i'd prefer to trade crappy cameraphone pic:

    Sold, pending usual

    And replied, On hold pending sale

    One last shameless bump, PLEASE don't make me sell it on evilBay people, but if it's not gone by wednesday that's where it's going......
  17. bobbass4k
    for minimum size, catalinbread is the way to go, i think the v8 is the only fuzz they do, they're bantam sized and apparently still very good, if you've got a little more space to spare, you should give devi ever a look, most of their new stuff is mxr sized and there's more fuzz flavours than you can shake a stick at. but that would look strange.
  18. bobbass4k
    I was thinking about building one of these for my cherry pop (very high gain gated sounding fuzz) a while back after reading the stickied thread, my workloads died down and i can spare the money for the supplies so i figured i'd give it a go, but I'm a little stuck on the circuit, so anyone got any ideas/schematics? I assume it's just a few transistors and resistors. I'm not bothered about it being variable or having a footswitch, my bass has 2 passive soapbars and a 9v active preamp

  20. bobbass4k
    No one? This is cheaper than you'll find one on evilBay with none of the horrible headachey feelings evilBay creates Oh well, bumpage

    Compressor advice

    bobbass4k replied to neilb's topic in Effects

    Trace Elliot's dual band one is highly regarded among bassists, It sounds very good, and can have quite an effect on the signal, but can still do subtle and transparent, it compresses the low and high frequencies seperatley which is very useful I just happen to be selling one (shameless, I know) in the For Sale: Effects forum if you're interested, I could even record some sound clips if you're interested

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='445697' date='Mar 26 2009, 09:12 AM']bobbass how come your chorus isn't in your feedback loop?[/quote] It doesnt like it for some reason, just buzzes, it does run on 18v, and the looper's a real simple homebuilt passive jobbie, they just don't get on
  23. bobbass4k
    Couple of new arrivals, still no actual board, but y'know, can't have everything, crappy camerphone pic: The chains not obvious from that, it goes: Bass/Guitar > XP-100 Whammy (dry out) > Craptastic tuner Whammy (wet out) > Crybaby bass Wah > Feedback Looper (Send) > EHX Microsynth > Cherry Pop Fuzz > Modded Bad Monkey OD > Feedback Looper (Return) > Cool Cat Chorus > Trace Elliot compressor > Boss DD-20 delay > headphones/amp I'm selling the Trace compressor, It's great, but it's shown me that i just don't need a compressor, so I'm flogging it in the effects sale forum if anyone's interested

    Another shameless bump for a price drop, now £75 posted
  25. bobbass4k
