Fer-fer-f-f-fer-um Flippin 'eck!

Let's see what it goes up to...

I might bring my wallet.

Well, I've watched another Ovation one come and go on ebay. But then I was browsing whilst on the train and someone local was selling a cheapie, so I'm now the proud owner of a Redwood mandolin, for which I paid the princely sum of £20. (It does need a new string, though.) Just need to learn some shapes now...

I tried MXR and Boss ones and the Aguilar beat them hands-down. It managed to keep the character of the note played in the octave too. However, the issue with the Aguilar (and analogue ones generally, I think) is the tracking and how low a note you can play on the bass. I do have a Markbass SuperSynth (aka SS), which has an octave function too. I'd like to have a go with a POG; I had a brief go on one when I bought the SS and it seemed OK (but it regenerates the notes).

I'll try and remember to bring along my Agular Octamizer...

Yep - I got to play a little bass with rubber strings, which sounded great!

I hear they're bad for yer 'Elf...

I was trying to help you with an amp gag...

Smokin' !

Lightweight!

Well, I could bring 4 Rickenbackers and 3 copies, so you'd only have to find 3 more basses...

If I've got enough room, I could bring my Elf...

Bring the family - issue resolved.

What would the English know about spelling?

Sounds like a plan!

Yep, especially a "Squire" with a "cheeky" logo. I'd like to have a block seller option on ebay.

I tried out a Darkglass Microtubes B7K V2 Analog yesterday; it came pretty close to the sound I've been imagining in my head: some extra growl/bite rather than a comb & loo roll. It is £289, though... https://www.andertons.co.uk/darkglass/darkglass-microtubes-b7k-v2-analog-bass-preamp-cmos-drive-eq-pedal-with-di

I'd just like to say that I agree with the OP! 🙂 I especially don't understand dealers who miss-spell - what kind of impression does that give if they don't even know the name of the product they are selling?

Man - you can see where the original logo has been sanded off! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Precision-Electric-Bass-Guitar/113210332610?hash=item1a5bdc95c2:g:KVQAAOSwqo5beT0L

"Plays like butter" = you have to wash your hands after playing it.

(Also debating bringing a Minitaur.)

Great for playing Rush!
