    Over the past six months or so, I've been putting some more themed pedalboards together for posterity before selling a lot of my pedals (which may have something to do with me clogging up the Pedals for Sale thread). I've finally gotten around to uploading photos here. I know themed boards aren't to everyone's liking but I'm three years into a shoulder injury (although in the final stretch (fingers crossed, without wrenching my shoulder)) and I'm still bass obsessed, so I have to do something. The themes are British pedals, European pedals, Canadian pedals, US pedals, black pedals, and discontinued and out of production pedals. British Pedals European Pedals Canadian Pedals US Pedals Black Pedals Discontinued and Out-of-Production Pedals

    I have a 2022 CLF L-1000 and it's a lovely instrument. It's at the lighter end of my basses and it's a beautifully made instrument. The wood grain on the neck and fretboard are pretty spectacular for what is basically a factory-produced bass. I bought it in matcha green though so that should probably be taken into account in considering how much weight to give the earlier sentences...

    <some selected price drops below - I'm trying to price sensibly but there's not much of a ready market for some of the rarer pedals to gauge against> I've been collecting and pedal-testing solidly since COVID but a lot's been happening this year and it's time to start letting some of these pedals go. All the pedals are in good working order and, for the most part, have really been babied and are in great condition. I'm happy to provide more pictures and details if required too. UK Royal Mail Special Delivery postage is included in the price. I'm not really looking for trades at this point but there are a handful of pedals I'm curious about: COG T-70 v2, Hamstead Subspace GE and Chase Bliss Spectre. Benson Florist (chorus/modulation) - £210 £200 Beetronics Seabee Harmochorus (Star Wars Empire livery) - £250 £215 Thorpyfx Camoflange v1 - £175 £170 Iron Kaiburr (fuzz with switchable tremolo) - £175 Broughton Calamity - £150 SOLD Mask Audio NO Fuzz - £70 £60 SOLD Magic Pedals DA-210 Green (OD/preamp) - £265 £220 SOLD Magic Pedals DA-120 Blackout (OD/preamp) - £300 £250 SOLD Magic Pedals Cthulhu Blackout (one knob fuzz) - £150 £120 SOLD NightOwl Industries Parabellum v2 - £220 £200 SOLD 3 Leaf Audio Proton Mk4 – Royal (run of 100) - £300 £270 SOLD 3 Leaf Audio Proton Mk4 – Sakura EN (run of 50) - £325 £300 SOLD 3 Leaf Audio Proton Mk4 – Alpenglow (run of 100) - £300 £270 SOLD 3 Leaf Octabvre MK3 – Icefall (run of 100) - £375 SOLD 3 Leaf Octabvre MK3 – Miami – (run of 100) £375 SOLD Lusithand Alma Comp MkII - £150 £140 SOLD Lusithand Ground & Pound MKI (with top-jacks) - £120Wrought SOLD Moose Nomad Rev 2 - ££130 £115 SOLD *Hiero BEAD v3 (Brassmaster-style fuzz) - £150 £140 SOLD *COG T-65 - £275 £250 SOLD *EMMA Discumbobulator v2 - £125 SOLD Horrothia Type One - £180 WITHDRAWN *COG R-1 (dual Grand Tarkin and octave-down) - £250 (missing one screw on the backplate) *denotes no box

    I am only human and I quite enjoy putting these pedal sale posts together.
  5. admiralchew
    Agreed. These are brilliant!
  6. admiralchew
    Good luck!

    It seems wrong to ‘like’ this post. I’m sorry to hear about how you feel; I hope you get your mojo back!

    It's been a big week or so for pedals here. Damnation Audio's Big to be more precise. Made in conjunction with Pet Symmetry, it's modelled after the Sanford & Sonny Bluebeard (a brilliant fuzz) and a boost pedal. Like everything of Damnation Audio's I've tried (MBD2, MBD3, Dirtfixer, Spite Box) it works rather well and actually makes me excited to play with a pick. Big-foot-esque blurry photo below.

    It may be worth checking this out in the meantime: https://www.broughtonaudio.com/product-page/fliptop

    I’d be interested in attending too please!

    Yesterday was an exciting one: a pedal I've been waiting for for a couple of years arrived. The backstory is a bit convoluted but I ended up with a 3 Leaf Audio Chromatron that was a little battered and losing its graphics. I reached out to Zac Sweeney at Malaise Forever and asked if he would be willing to finish it however he liked because I love his designs. That was in May 2023. A lot has happened with Malaise Forever shutting down and then reopening in a different form; there were times I wasn't sure I would see the pedal again so it made opening the box yesterday very sweet. I've posted some photos of the finished article below (and, as a bonus, I now have a box for the pedal!).

    That makes sense. In deep dark COVID times (mid-2021 to early 2022) Andertons and PMT were selling new HH Specials at £2,899 a pop.

    Lives up to the claim. Love it! I think that’s the best Doom 2 finish too.
  14. admiralchew
    Haha, it’s true I’ve had boards that would match that description. I’ve not tried an Analogman pedal though and that looks cool.
  15. admiralchew
    What a claim! Love it. Do you have a photo of the whole thing?

    @LukeFRC?

    It’s one of their Teambuilt (so German-made) annual limited models where they change things up a bit in terms of spec. It’s the bolt-on LX model and has a black korina body and Bartolini soapbars in it. Here’s a demo (playing at 2:09 onwards):

    I have pau ferro on a fretted Warwick Streamer and on the Fender Jaco fretless jazz and I like it a lot on both. In fact, I liked it so much on the Warwick that I was giving serious consideration to using it on a custom bass. I loved how warm the tone was, albeit it’s difficult to discern how much of that is down to the fretboard wood and how much is down to other factors.
  19. admiralchew
    Looking forward to seeing it! I hope you love it!
  20. admiralchew
    That is a real work of art.

    Hi @Bleezar, I'll DM you. Both the TK-421-X and Volt Thrower are really excellent bass-tailored takes on the RAT but given I have a Volt Thrower for sale I don't think it's fair to give a run down of each on this sale thread.

    I’ve used Aitken Audio (https://www.aitkenaudio.co.uk) in Sheffield three or four times when getting pedals mended and I think Neil at NRG (https://shop.nrgeffects.com) does some repair work too.

    A nice ode to the Prunes & Custard.

    The COG pedal looks very involved! What does it do?
  25. admiralchew
    Thank you for setting me on my way with it! I hope all’s good for you.
