Update. The truss rod cover was reversed for some reason. I will need new screws. Truss rod cover of Westone Thunder 1A bass by Hywel Cross, on Flickr I removed the strings and cleaned up the sticker (scraped it off with the edge of a CD, then used nail varnish remover). Westone Thunder 1A bass starting to be stripped down for deep cleaning. by Hywel Cross, on Flickr I will remove the bridge and give it a good clean. The electronics look to be in good nick.

Westone Thunder 1A bass (1983) by Hywel Cross, on Flickr The truss rod cover is the correct shape, but is white and has no logo. Weird. Maybe the previous owner reversed it? I will pull it off when I change the strings.

Flickr photo Nice colour. I will post a pic asap. That's what I reckoned about the knobs; they're pretty pricy. The best thing is that it was FREE!!!!!! 😎

I just picked what appears to be a Thunder 1A. One P pick up, two to be and one volume control, with 2 switches. The control knobs are black plastic with numbers, not brass though. The serial number puts it at mid 1983. It's a bit tatty cosmetically but the electronics look tidy and the neck is good. Any ideas why the knobs are plastic? Replacement brass ones are really ££££

Just booked tickets for Behemoth (in Feb next year)

Iron Monkey at The Ruby Lounge. Really great show.

Blood Red Throne at Hammerfest. Awesome live show. Great musicians.

Ooh. My missus has an OCD clone somewhere. I will have to give it a whirl. Nice demo by the way.

I bought it as an alternative to the Vox Amplug. I was not expecting much to be honest, as I remember my brother having a guitar zoom in the early 2000s. It was horrible. This is good though.

I bought one last week for use as a headphone amp and practice tool. I'm finding the drums/rhythms very useful. Excellent value for money.

Bought a Thomann one. It's not half bad. The colour is awful but looks like it will do the job until I buy a Fusion double gig bag.

I've been lurking for awhile, and have posted in a few threads, but figured I'd be polite and introduce myself.

I'm 38, have played bass since I was 14, but concentrated on drums from age 20 to last year. I played drums in black metal bands generally. My bass playing is pretty metal influenced too; I like sludgy, heavy grooves generally. I had sold most of my gear to fund drums (SWR Workingman head, Peavey 1x15black widow cab and some basses) so I had to buy new stuff recently! Basses - Charvette by Charvel 4 string (my 1st bass), Active EMG pickups, EpiphoneToby Deluxe Amp - Tech 21 VT Bass 500, TC Electronic K212 cab Pedals - Dunlop Cry Baby Wah, EHX Bass Deluxe Big Muff, Way Huge Swollen Pickle, Tom'sLine Tuner. Danelectro Fabtone distortion (the old burgundy one!). Little Bear Wooly Mammoth clone on its way to me in the post too. I am thinking of picking up a Harley Benton fretless for a bit of cheap fun. I miss my Status fretless

I just ordered a Little Bear Mammoth Wooly fuzz. Hopefully will play nice with my other pedals.

I just checked out a review of The Moosapotamus 360 fuzz!!!!! Holy mother of god!!! Want! Want ! Want! I want a Wooly Mammoth, but will probably end up with a clone. Can't justify such stupid money for an essentially one trick pedal.

Watching the demo, it seems more my kind of thing than either my Deluxe Bass Big Muff or Swollen Pickle. I really like how filthy it sounds.

This thread has got me scouring the web for a ZVEX Wooly Mammoth clone!!!

Oh man! My Swollen Pickle may be getting a baby brother!

They arrived. Wow. Talk about value for money! The rhythms are awesome, lots of useable sounds, an accurate tuner, and not as fragile as I thought. Still not going on a pedal board, but awesome for its purpose.

I saw this. I just blew the money I had saved towards a Boss bass chorus on a Zoom B1on. Not in the same league but thwre are some nice toys on there; it's for home practice, not live though. I will have to buy a dedicated chorus at some point. I saw an Eden for £55 on eBay yesterday.

And I bought some headphones. Sennheiser HD206. 😐

Iron Monkey, in manchester on April 21st. Tickets were an Xmas gift from my partner. Iron Monkey is one of my favourite bands.

And to think that yesterday, I was only after a chorus pedal for live use. I do t think the zoom would survive long under my feet.
