No problem, I've just got it on hold for BC'er, if it falls through I'll let you know. -

[quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='467967' date='Apr 20 2009, 11:43 PM']Would you consider posting?[/quote] [quote name='Archetype' post='468798' date='Apr 21 2009, 05:15 PM']Im really tempted by this... would you consider posting? G[/quote] Theres a possibility I would post, it's just I'm not the biggest fan. I'm just currently talking to someone interested, but if it doesn't happen I'll definitely consider shipping. [quote name='dood' post='468164' date='Apr 21 2009, 10:12 AM']For a month old, that is a superb price! I'm really starting to get to grips with the endless possibilities of the Dual Engine on the X3. I like running two seperate rigs, for clean, one dirty and send them out seperate channels for recording.[/quote] Cheers, dood! It was from your recommendation that I got one! I'm only selling on because I quite recently departed the band and I think my best intentions would be to start looking for a proper career. I still have my trusty piano!

[quote name='andy67' post='467500' date='Apr 20 2009, 02:52 PM']Hi mate, I have the original box for one of these - I could send you it? I could also arrange a courier? andy[/quote] If you'd like to do that, I'm happy to go that way. -
Hi mate, I'm quite reluctant to send by courier, plus I don't have any boxes to put it in! One bad experience in the past has put me off I'm afraid.

Start of week bump, with a price drop to £200. Silly price!

For sale is my lovely little practise amp. Not much to say about it really, but it's a cracking little amp. 30w, 10" speaker. CD input and headphone sockets. Perfect for practising in the bedroom etc. Bought new last year, been used about 10 times, never used loud, and in great general condition. Asking for £50 collected, or will deliver around the NW for a bottle of Dr. Pepper. Cheers, Karl
-
I bought this new about a year ago just to dabble whenever I felt the need. Decent condition, but maybe could do with a little clean and a new set of strings. Other than that, it's in full working condition, no dodgy electrics etc. Nice for a little noodle every now and again. Including the South Park strap and a dust cover asking for [b]£40[/b] collected or will deliver around the NW for a bottle of coke. Cash on collection strongly preferred although happy to accept PayPal if you really want.

Here is a 5 month old Pod X3 Live fully boxed with PSU, manuals and USB lead. Theres a few multi-fx around but this is just amazing. Can be used on guitar, bass & vocals. Outstanding versatility, great sound. The tube simulations are really good, and you can get "grit" and overdrive without it sounding digital. Dual tone capabilities (two signal paths) so you can have a clean tone with an amp sim, and then another with loads of FX/distortion etc, and be able to control the volumes between the two. It's a great feature. This Pod is in great condition apart from one of the plastic strips with the pedal functions, which has come up on one corner when I caught it moving it around at a gig. Nothing a touch of glue won't sort out, and I've shown it in a picture. Looking for [b]£220[/b] collected, [b]£230[/b] posted or deliver around the NW for the same price. Cash on collection or bank transfer, will accept PayPal if you're willing to pay the fees . Cheers, Karl.

Have a bump on me....stunning bass, wish I had some money to offer with my Spector Legend 5 as a trade!
-
I'd say it has a lovely tone so no problems there. The bass is a 35" scale, and although you barely notice it, sometimes the muscle memory is a touch out, and might be a bit of stretch if you have smaller hands. I think any 5 string would be ideal to get into playing 5 string, and of course I want to sell the bass, but I'd say, if you can, try a 35" if you've got smaller hands. I'm quite reluctant to post. I see you're in North Herts, I'd consider dropping it off/meeting up halfway, but I don't like posting basses.

Mega price drop for Easter!
-
Sorry to drag up a slightly old topic, but it saves making a new topic. Can anyone with experience of either of these basses comment on the B string? As mentioned before the BTB has a 35" so maybe the B will be a little tighter (my Spector is 35" and the B is amazing), but I really love the look of the SR506 over the BTB and want to trade my Spector towards one!
-
Well the box says "the most advanced guitar pedalboard ever", so I'd like to argue in favour of a yes!
-
This is my new pedal board thanks to 'dood' and the [b]very[/b] helpful and knowledgeable owner of Symphony Music is Ashton-In-Makerfield! Includes the 'obligatory' night shot.
-
Thanks for the comments everyone, especially dood! I guess another plus is that the Line6 editor software is USB too, so theres no extra cost of buying a USB-MIDI adaptor. And it's Mac compatible! I'm off to a music shop to try it out now!

*sigh* I like the look and features of both these units but even with a list of pros and cons I can't seem to decide. [b][u]Zoom b9.1ut[/u][/b] [b]Pros[/b] [list] [*]Cheaper - around £279 [*]Z pedal - effectively two pedals in one for controlling effects [*]Tube - could sound a lot smoother [*]Better EQ options [/list] [b]Cons[/b] [list] [*]Only for bass [*]Footswitches. Problems across the current gen Zoom pedals, they go dicky after a while and can't be fixed without replacing microswitches (a big soldering jobby) [/list] [b][u]Line6 Pod X3 Live[/u][/b] [b]Pros[/b] [list] [*]More extensive modelling (mic position etc) [*]For guitar and bass (and mic) for when I go over to the dark side [*]Good user support and streams of firmware updates + the ability to share patches over the internet quite easily [*]Dual tone - could have a clean bass with EQ and then a "dirty" tone all in one patch. Seems to offer greater flexibilty over the wet/dry blend on the Zoom. [/list] [b]Cons[/b] [list] [*]More expensive - around £369 [*]No tube [*]Seems to have a few audio drop-out/USB issues which only a reboot can solve. [/list] Has anyone had experience with both and could offer their opinions? Or anyone who's used either of these pedals offer some opinions? Proper stuck between the two, and I like to have something set in stone to "aim" for saving. Cheers Karl

Extra pics now added!

D'oh, my local shops don't have any boxes left over, which is a bit of a shame

[quote name='Bassmurf' post='425757' date='Mar 5 2009, 08:33 AM']Dammit..if only I lived near Wigan![/quote] I'm going to nip to the local music shop and see if they have any boxes. I could ship, I'm just always reluctant to incase anything happens!

For sale is my 4 month old Spector Legend 5 Classic in Dark Cherry. Excellent condition. 35" scale (very nice B string), EMG-SSD pickups, Spector TonePump Jnr with treble and bass controls (boost only) and 2 volumes. Gorgeous body, very comfy when played. I believe the string spacing may be 16.5mm but can't remember off hand. Only selling because I want to get back to basics (I.e a 4 string), but get the strangest suspicion I'll regret selling this on! I'll be looking for [b]£200[/b] including a Warwick RockCase, collection only from Wigan (or may deliver for a small amount of petrol money).

[quote name='Peter Train' post='425572' date='Mar 4 2009, 10:06 PM']Great Review and great photos. I've got a vintage V940 I bought of another bass chatter and I love it. It's infinitly better than the cheap fender copy I first bought. The guy that teaches me bass makes bass guitars and has played it. He can get much better sounds out of it than me and he thinks I've got a bargain. I'm now thinking about another bass and this looks more of a bargain than somehting like a rockbass corvette which is the other I quite like.[/quote] Glad you're enjoying the bass mate! Just had another look at the V1004DX and I'm sorely tempted. Expect to see a Spector Legend 5 up for sale tomorrow morning!

[quote name='redstriper' post='424316' date='Mar 3 2009, 04:58 PM']Flatwound strings and a piece of foam under the strings by the bridge, then EQ out all the treble and upper mids and most basses should give you what you're looking for - an Epiphone EB-O will do it on the cheap.[/quote] How would flats on a jazz/precision sound? If I sold my Spector with little money I could acquire a Squier VM Jazz & Precision (I also want to go back to 4 strings).
-
I adore a smiley face EQ as much as lots of people seem to hate it. I hate the sound of mids, I like a dull, undefined tone, which makes me wonder why on earth I have a Spector and also makes me wonder what bass I should actually be playing. Anyone care to help?
