i'll take the qtron +, pm'd

i'll take the headrush - will call tomorrow, whens good?

tentative pm about this, where exactly are you based for a pick up? i'm in south london so maybe not too far away.

don't fancy a trade for a boss dd-3 + cash do you? no tap tempo but it's a different delay to play with.

i've got the aguilar tonehammer which will fill your criteria, though will run on 2 9v batteries not 1. great aguilar tone and you can easily pick one up for less than £200.

i tried one of these about 4 years ago in the old bass centre and it was more than lovely, if only i had more space,money,time this would fit straight into my collection. good luck

so whats the opinion on MIJ jazz basses from this era? it seems like a really good price, though i really shouldn't be considering buying it, but it seems like a really good price. ahhhhh, lovely colour combo too, my personal favourite for a jazz. mmmmm tempted, i'm usually happy about being lefty to avoid GAS, but then it's so much worse when something does come up.

the main point people still buy expensive boutque pedals is the fact that they don't just use standard components, i think ZVex in particular may make their own transistors (correct me if i'm wrong). because of this you will never actually get the same tone, pretty close but not the same. cloning is good fun, but unless your good or using a really simple pedal it can be infuriating, my scramble clone took an age to get right, most of the time it was just a volume pedal that could ick up radio!

mmmmmm thinking about getting a qtron plus for the effects loop but this could be a simple mod away, anyone know what the difference is?

oooh i wants loads of these, must resist. there are too many noisebox's up for sale at the moment, fueling gas. need to have a ponder.

my thoughts as well with the lights but was wandering if anyone had actually used it. one of the vids has a set up with a lamp but if you're going to do that you may as well jst get an expression pedal.

i have just stumbled upon the devi ever peep photo expression pedal thing, looks cool and there some noisey toys that may work very well with it.

has anyone else had a play and does it actually work as well as the various vids say it does?

pm'd for the dd-3

oh and the slim maplin connectors are fine for normal guitar cable - my guitarist uses them on his board, i think they may be more space saving than george l's too. you need a soldering iron though.

this place is cheaper than maplins for sockets though they don't do those really slim ones, good for cable too i think.

they can be a bit of a stinger on postage so keep the transactions to a minimum.

EDIT: cable cheap but only in 100m rolls, though 100m for £12 is amazing.

oh i love this forum, so exactly what i needed to know, cheers guys. BotB, you have a PM!

Right the EB-0 has been lying around half done for a good month now, which is at least a month too long, and i need to finish it off.

I have been looking at getting hold of a DiMarzio model 1 but it's quite hard to find one. Also i have recently considered a Darkstar pickup for that vintagey tone. Anyone got any sort of clue where i can find one of these? I could resort to asking Bass Centre to source me them though i have found that ordering specific things through a shop as being a little more expensive than just finding one for sale.

Does anyone know where i can find these?

Thoman did have the model 1 in stock for a bit but not now, and also that shop looks dodgy and there are many stories of woe about their customer service. Any pointers will be great, also if theres another pickup that i have neglected that can do a similar sound (i know these 2 aren't that similar but they are both passive high impedance monsters) let me know.

Cheers

pm'd

oh i very sorely want this but it's so far above any of my available funds that i've completely given up hope.

one day.

Cheers.
Bought a cab off of jack - and he even brought it into central for me, most useful. Great deal, great sale, though had to walk back to my office in the rain - bloody weather.

Now gone to a new home.

Now sold pending etc

Price drop!!!!

now £120, offered it for that price so i thought it was only polite to spread the offer.

I this this may be the only burl top i've seen that hasn't been book matched. It looks really really lovely, the anti symmetry thing is quite beautiful, i can't see why everyone book matches the tops on everything. damn i want to build another guitar.

maybe my self-made buckeyed burl Pro WAL (only the 1979 fretless neck is original) could also tempt and inspire you to build a bass. We tried to copy the body shape of the MKI I owned at that time and realized it with the help of my wife, who's a joiner by profession and luthier Rüdiger Ziesemann of Bassline Basses Germany:

Ok it's now for sale, i've managed to buy (pending etc) a lovely new little cab so this beast has to go.

It's as described above, and lifting it out of it's current hiding place i remembered how much i've enjoyed playing through it. I also realised again why it has to be sold as it took me ages to lift it out.

So here's some pictures, taken at the top of the stairs as that was the best light i could find in our small flat.

I'm asking for £140 as i'm trying to get together funds for the new one but i don't think i can really ask for any more in this condition.

But if you're a man like myself who doesn't really care for cosmetics and clean edges, this is a good deal for a reliable 314 square inches of speaker. loads of punch and bottom end. It sounded very fat when only pulling 120w from my little mark.


Oh yeh and important stuff it's 8ohm, rates at 600w, and has the serial 03681699, which someone may be able to decode

It's pick up only from peckham south london. no post, i've no car and it's too heavy to carry to the post office.
