  1. Music for me is a hobby which sometimes covers it's costs, sometimes gives me a little spending money. Fortunately my main full time job has not being affected by COVID so at least it hasn't been a financial burden with live music effectively being cancelled lately. For me, meeting with my band, playing shows and sometimes seeing our music being appreciated by others willing to part with money to watch us play, buy our music, buy our merch was still valuable as an emotional release and an escape from the daily grind at work and struggles with mental illness. Thats the part I miss the most right now, it's all just reality, my childhood rock star fantasy is on hold. Anyone who also relies on their music as a main source of income has my sincere sympathy, I can only imagine how it would be if i'd been relying on it financially too.
  2. Has anyone got experience with the Enki dual bass cases? I'm currently using the Mono dual case but these seem much more protective for throwing into the back of a van or flying on occasion. How is the weight when loaded? They're obviously alot of money but potentially worth it when Its for about £3k of instruments. https://www.andertons.co.uk/enki-amg-2-electric-bass-case-hard-case-for-2-bass-guitars-aircraft-hold-approved-316117?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9IX4BRCcARIsAOD2OB0fHzwybaYZfXdcn1QP835DzpbeOnvY_sBwNRSc9Mu7DmdR1CF5mqAaAjp0EALw_wcB
  3. Thanks for confirming! I figured there wouldn't be an issue but it's an expensive amp to break if there was some strange way their loop worked or something.
  4. I have a microtubes 900 V2 head, when my band meets for rehearsals at our local place some rooms have a head and cab for bass so I can use my own head, but other rooms have a peavey combo which I can't get on with and can't get my regular tone without the DG head adding some drive. The same for a few support shows we've played with shared backline where the headliner has brought a combo. If I'm confronted with this, what's stopping me from taking the FX send from my head into the return of the other amp, effectively using my preamp into their power amp? I regularly use my head for silent practice just using headphones or the DI with no cab so there's no issue with there not being a load on the darkglass power amp. Can anyone confirm this is ok to do? I'm also assuming the send and return of my amp is post preamp and microtubes?

    Benson Preamp

    Hey, has anyone tried using the Benson Preamp to add some tube growl. I'm wondering if this will be a decent always on pedal Infront of my amp. Just concerned about bass cut or muddiness.

  8. Does anybody know if the send/return on a MT900v2 is midi switchable or is it always in the circuit. I was hoping to move to MIDI control and switch a drive pedal in the loop without an additional MIDI loop switcher which would be overkill for one pedal. I checked out the darkglass suite midi section but only see the channel, compressor, mute and cab sim options. There's one called 'bypass' but I think this is to bypass the cab sim?
  9. Happy to have sold to @pbasspecial. Good communication, quick payment and friendly chap.
  10. Used condition boxed with velcro on back but works perfectly. I've been using this to sculpt my tone for a while and found it more versatile than it's B7K cousin. £135 posted to UK mainland. Collection from Walsall, West Midlands welcome
  11. Mint condition with Orange carry case. Gigged several times but mainly used for rehearsals and in the studio. This thing sounds amazing however you set it. Collection preferred from Walsall though I can meet within a reasonable distance. I can get a quote for UK mainland shipping but would really like to avoid this. "Back by demand, the Orange Terror Bass Head has been enhanced to give you creative freedom and a powerful performance. Closely based on their flagship AD200, the Terror Bass features an all-valve preamp section combined with a classic Class D power amp. This hybrid setup gives you the beautiful saturation and natural breakup of a valve with the clarity and reliability of a solid-state. The redesigned Terror Bass Amp keeps the same control layout as the original, only with the addition of a clean switch for extra headroom and clarity. This is also ideal if you like using effect pedals to colour your tone, which you can connect to the valve-driven FX loop. 500 watts, lightweight design, stunning soundscapes, what more could you want."
  12. Hi is this still available?
  13. Is this still for sale? Pics don’t seem to be working.
  14. Based in Walsall, West Midlands. I’ll post within the UK for an extra £5 Darkglass Vintage Deluxe V1 - £140 Great condition with box and paperwork. Velcro on the back. https://imgur.com/a/bPwWKca
  15. Perfect condition with plenty of cable. collected from a Walsall or £5 postage.
  16. Shipping now may be an option. See post edit.
  17. Sorry I’m not offering shipping right now as Im a bit short of time to gather the packaging and arrange a courier/be around for collection but I can meet within reason for some fuel money.
  18. 34” from some online research. Haven’t got my tape measure to hand to check.
  19. REDUCED £450 ono Sadly I need to free up some cash held in gear i'm not using with my current project. 1979 Peavey T-40 The natural finish is in a very good condition for a 40 year old instrument, a few scuffs and signs of use over the years but otherwise great. I've tried to show the main areas in the pictures. I don't have the original Peavey case but will include a Kinsman lightweight hard case in the sale. All electronics work perfectly, there are quite a few combinations available for real tonal versatility. Independent volume and tone for each pickup, pickup selection switch and phase reversal switch. With the tone above 7 you're in single coil mode, 7 or below is humbucker. A popular mod is to wire so you're always in humbucker so you can be at 10 on the tone for a bit extra brightness but I never saw the need for this so didn’t do it. Set up with D'Addario 45-107 Balanced Tension strings and plays great. EDIT: As it's been requested, i've looked into shipping and to a mainland UK address, if insured for full value. Postage to mainland UK an extra £30 However, collection would be preferred to save the hassle and for peace of mind. I can meet within a reasonable distance for fuel money. Collection from Walsall, West Midlands.
  20. Bombs for Breakfast are a Midlands based Punk Rock three-piece looking for a new drummer to help continue to push the band forward. Debut EP released last year, we're playing regular shows around the Midlands and further into the UK. We're 28 and 31, committed, have a professional attitude, gigging and recording experience, transport and decent gear so ideally would like someone similar. You can check out our music by going to our website https://www.bombs4bfast.com/music or by finding us on Spotify/Apple Music etc.
  21. From out first gig of the year back in January with my Nash PB-57 workhorse.
  22. For sale is my Orange 4 Stroke 500. A great clean and punchy amp, that can get gnarly as you add more compression or increase the mid gain. 4 band parametric EQ for great versatility. I've been using the amp for about 4 months, probably about 10 gigs and it hasn't missed a beat. The only reason i'm selling is because i'm getting my tone from a pedal board preamp now so just need a power amp to run my cab. The amp has been kept in the flight case since I bought it and is in excellent condition, only ever run up to around quarter volume. I will include a 3U gator flight case and 1U spacer panel for the asking price. Due to the size and weight i'd like to avoid postage but so collection is preferred from Walsall, West Midlands or I will happily drive to meet. £500 ono. The only trade i'm interested in is for a new version Bass Terror. I can get more photos once i'm back with the amp.
