This is effectively new, it’s been unpacked but never installed. Link to the item on the East website here - https://www.east-uk.com/product/j-tone/?v=79cba1185463. It's an excellent 2 band preamp that doesn't alter the passive tone of the instrument and comes with the bag of tone caps that you can use to change the passive tone. It's a very handsome version with a mix of black and chrome knobs. I still have another just like it on my Squier. Am asking £105 uk posted with payment by bank transfer or Paypal F&F

Equipment failures - always the worst time!
mikegatward replied to Jakester's topic in General Discussion
Did you find the root cause of the Stomp failure ? -
Get the ABZ if funds allow. Then put a Darkglass tone capsule in it

I suspect I have similar talent and good looks 😀

Selling my trusty smooth hound wireless system due to a Xmas pressie upgrade. Bad news is I can’t find the mains power supply but most folk run these from their pedalboard anyway and the appropriate cable is included. The slightly better news is that there is a second transmitter included. However, the jack is quite loose but can probably be tightened by someone familiar with these units. The receiver has been velcroed so there is a little residue on the bottom of the unit. Asking £60 uk posted

Elles Bailey was very good at Leeds Brudenell Club recently. Nice person to talk to as well as very talented

Brilliant - I don’t store the speakers so had no idea there were any fixings on the top. Thanks for telling me.

Really like the idea of mounting a lighting unit on top of the PA speakers but we use Mackie SRM350’S which just have a lift handle. Any bright ideas how I could mount onto that ?. Some kind of giant bulldog clip would be needed

If you lived near me, I’d buy you a pint for that answer 😀 -

Not sure if it counts but best purchase was spending £70 getting both my HX Stomp (L/Mono output not working) and Morningstar MC6 ( switches sticking) repaired. -
Just ordered 2 packs - thanks for heads up

E&M Electronic Services are closing the business. Does anyone know another UK repairer ? Mine has a non-working L/Mono output socket Thanks in advance -
Went to the gig at Leeds Arena last night. Went out of curiosity more than anything but wow wow wow. What a performance from everyone on stage. Colin Greenwood from Radiohead filled in for the regular guy and sounded like he’s played with them forever. Highly recommended if they are still to play any near you on this tour.

Picked this up recently but have concluded it’s overkill for me in a small gig band. It’s in really good condition with no visible signs of wear. Guess everyone knows how powerful these things are so I won’t go into detail here. i don’t have the original box but if p&p is required it will well bubble wrapped and boxed. Price is £700 plus p&p at cost which I think is a fair price. I’ll drive an hour or so if meet up is preferred. I drive over to the North West regularly if that helps. Not looking for any trades sorry.

They’re brilliant on holiday especially if you’ve an Apple Watch Music pauses when you take on put and you can restart from the watch. Phone can then stay out of the sun and not overheat

Anyone tried one of the new Sire semi acoustic basses yet ? Looks promising from the promo vids

Dunlop grippy 1.5mm for me. I take 5 or 6 to a gig with spares on my amp and on a mic stand. I'm paranoid about dropping a pick mid song but I've never dropped one in my life. Guess we all need our security blankets.

Decided to move on this 51 telebass bitsa that I put together for a winter project. it’s a new Allparts Telebass body finished in blonde polyurethane. Neck is an Allparts telebass neck I picked on on basschat that I’ve finished in vintage tint nitro lacquer. Pickup is a Lindy Fralin 51P, bridge is a retrovibe with individually adjusted brass saddles. Tuners are Fender Vintage. Neck is 40mm at the nut and is a nice D profile. Not super slim but no baseball bat either. Cavities are all copper shielded. Strung with a set of Picato flats and it weighs in at a reasonable 9lb 2oz Plays nice and sounds like you’d expect ! I’m looking for £595 and would prefer a meet up rather than post as I’ve no case for it. if postage was needed I can throw in a generic hard case for another £50 Shout up if any questions
