[quote name='dangerboy' post='310154' date='Oct 19 2008, 11:56 PM']I think some of it is due to the exchange rate - like a lot of other people I've been buying effects from the US when it was $2=£1. Now I'm looking to the UK, so bidding on more here. So prices go up here![/quote] I'd agree with this. Its almost not worth importing anymore. The subdecay quasar i've been admiring for months would only be about £10-15 cheaper to import now, and theres the risk of being hit with import duty on top of it aswell. God damn economy! Seems a good time to sell though.

[quote name='Maximus' post='199996' date='May 15 2008, 10:37 PM'][/quote] Very nice, but do you not find that the moog causes some serious tone suck when disengaged?? From what i've read (although I haven't tried one myself) the bypass on them is quite bad and you may be better off putting it in a true bypass loop... Anyway, my board is still a work in progress (as always), but at the moment it goes: Micro POG > Mini-Chorus > B:assmaster > Pickle Pie > FZ-2 > Echo 600> Compulator > DT-10 Off the board are the Ram Head, Neo Fuzz and Hellbilly, and the stuff I want to buy: Subdecay Noisebox, Quasar, Fembot and Prometheus (when released), Barge VFB-X, Empress Tremolo and 3Xfx Fatman, though this stuff is a looooooooong way off at the moment

[quote name='BassManKev' post='195751' date='May 9 2008, 11:15 PM']hellbilly still available?[/quote] Nope -
[quote name='tayste_2000' post='195633' date='May 9 2008, 06:56 PM']Nah checked I'm wrong, well might be, Bob McBroom just built pedals in what ever was lying around, some hots are red some are random colours but there are only 5-10 of them and some might say hot inside and some might not, either way the hellbilly is rare and a very sought after pedal in the guitar world. Hope this helps[/quote] Ahh cool. Thanks for clearing it up mate

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='195618' date='May 9 2008, 06:29 PM']I'll check for you but I'm fairly sure I'm right.[/quote] If you are, I may hold on to it for a little while... Either way, thanks very much for letting me know about it

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='195540' date='May 9 2008, 04:38 PM']Just to let you know that hellbilly isn't a bog standard hellbilly it's a hellbilly hot I think they made 5 might have been 3 out of the 150 hellbilly's they made. It has more gain on tap I think it might use different transisters but I can't remember, either way it's very very special and rare. Should say on the back plate when you open it up hellbilly hot and a date that bob mcbroom made it[/quote] Really? Heres what it says when I opened it up: Think it says 9-1-05, but I can't make it out properly myself, im terrible at reading other peoples writing... Dave

Only things id be interesting in trading for would be an EHX XO POG, Demeter Compulator, 3Xfx Fatman, Subdecay Noisebox or Quasar... [quote name='Ant' date='Mar 17 2008, 06:46 PM']i see people talking about a hellbaby for sale, but is it still?[/quote] There _was_ a hellbaby for sale, im keeping hold of it for the time being though. Might be up again at the end of this month depending on how things go.. and bump! Back at my uni place now, so I can post things pretty much instantly. Dave

[quote name='BassManKev' post='165124' date='Mar 28 2008, 11:28 AM'][b]odb-3 keeps more low end obviously, as it has a blend pot,[/b] but this thing beats anything ehx have to offer distortion wise, much more out of control than a big muff will ever be[/quote] The pickle pie faithfully retains your low end anyway, so theres not much need for a blend pot IMHO. Its a thick fuzz anyway, rather than an overdrive. Theres some soundclips of it on bass here [url="http://wrenandcuff.com/pickled_bass.html"]http://wrenandcuff.com/pickled_bass.html[/url] The mid switch basically removes the mid-scoop, giving you another range of sounds. I still prefer mine with the scoop, but its nice to have the option of versatility. Definately recommended from me.

still waiting on my tonefactor hellbilly..... I want to pick up an empress trem and subdecay quasar soon too, but doubt ill be able to afford either!!!
-
I want this so much! But alas, ive not got enough for it Great pedal though, whoever gets it wont be disappointed!
-
I'd recommend one of these to anyone. I certainly love mine. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='161200' date='Mar 20 2008, 11:32 PM']Well I will when my Limited edition TB one arrives I think the postman has stolen it[/quote] Cant believe you haven't got it yet.... you gonna start complaining to Royal Mail ??? Good luck....

[quote name='minty fresh death' post='156886' date='Mar 13 2008, 06:02 PM']If your interested, i've got a Vox V847 which has been modded to work better with bass via a cap mod, would you take it in p/x for the Prunes and Custard?[/quote] Thanks for the offer, but i'm looking for money only at the moment!
