yeah just giving them a listen through now, cheers

I'd love some rough clips of these, that would really help! Unfortunately I'm down south England so not too close. I wont go for the octamizer then, I'll look out for the octabvre, however not seen a ON on sale much.

so would you say that the okto/octabvre is better to go for than the aguilar octamizer? Im set on getting a mastotron, and probably will go for a manta

The email account that was sent to me was maudio133gmail.com my message was the same with a nice cog t16 photo... which I still want hah

No worries, you don’t think I’ll be at any risk at all for emailing?

Changed my password and 2 step authenticator on, hopefully send him the email in my excitement wont cause me any backlash In mine he said he had a Cog T16, which i've been looking for a while

Great... well I'll see if he replies with anything

same here.. I sent an email, theres nothing he could do with just my email is there?

Ok thats good then ha. I'd love a T16 if I could get my hands on one without the wait time to get one made, but I'm unsure if thats possible. I think I can manage without the octave up for now possibly.

Thats great, thanks so much! Well since this i've carried on researching which hasnt been productive in getting things actually done that I need to... However, i've been looking into the synth signal chains etc and decided to make my next purchases a fuzz, octave and filter. What I had in mind was a octamizer (as i've found one for a good price), a mastotron and possibly a SA Manta as my filter due to seeing a lot about them being versatile on here. I did really like the look of a t16 Cog but they seem quite hard to come by and I'm needing to get my board ready to gig before end of next month really so id like to get everything ready prior and use to it also, to find the sounds I like and can use.

Hi, So I've begun my journey of creating a pedalboard, so far I have the board, voodoo labs pp2, tech 21 vt bass di, spectracomp, xotic bb bass. I'd love to also add some pedals that will allow me to produce a good synth sound, as well as an octave pedal and chorus for more chord like things. I've delved through many of the pages on these different areas but not necessarily found any clear idea on what works well together with the pedals I have already and what works well regarding the pedals that I'm looking for. For info on what I play, I have 5 string Yamaha BB 435 (at the moment) and a Fender Jazz classic 60s MiM. I generally play a mix of more modern music (hence looking for synth like things) to rock (nothing heavy) so I'd like some versatile pedals that would cover this range. Thanks for any responses, Ben

Thanks guys, it was my phone though ha. Really appreciate the support in trying to fault find but was my own mistake!

It ticks about every half second, but think it was my phone interfering with it

Yeah I’ve tried in multiple places, I’m not sure what the frequency is sorry

Hmh ok, so how would I go about testing this to find the fault

Hi, so i bought a fender jazz 60s classic Mexican made a few months ago, playing more recently I’ve heard it makes a ticking noise whenever it’s plugged in, sometimes just without playing and other times when I play it comes through. This happens playing straight into the amp and at any volume. I wouldn’t think it’s technique issue as I’m not playing down towards the pups and also does it when I’m not even playing. I’m quite stuck into what it could be, I’ve tried all the basic troubleshooting like changing cables, no phone in pocket etc etc... any help will be really appreciated or any other questions needed please ask! Thanks, Ben

Hi, I purchased a 435 back in August, struggled for the same reason as you as I couldnt find reviews. However I went for it, i'm really pleased with it, good value for money, good B string, I play mine through an VT tech 21 di and sounds great.

I brought have a BB435, very nice, obviously necks a bit bigger being a 5 string, but is really nice, smooth play. And to me its light, much lighter than what i've played previously. So I reckon the 734 would be very similar.

I went for it and purchased a BB435, it should be here tomorrow, I'll let you know how it is.

Ok, i'm keeping my eye out for one

I'm torn between the BB1025x, BB425x and the BB435

I phoned some of the music shops near me and they have them in stock, so there are some floating about

Hi, Looking into getting a new bass, and leaning towards the Yamaha BBs, was looking at getting a 425x, but I'm debating whether to go for the 435 instead. He anyone played the 435 or the 434 or other and knows how they compare to the previous series? I know I should probably try one for myself but it's quite a drive to the closest place so I'd like to have an idea before making the drive. Thanks for any feedback!
