  1. Set of 4 LaBella low tension short scale flats for sale, gauges .042, .056, .075 & .100. Originally fitted on an SG I bought secondhand last year but were too dull for a thudbox like an SG so i swapped them out for something with a bit more top end. Product page: https://www.labella.com/product/ltf-4a-s/ 25 notes posted.
  2. Sonicake Sonic passive ABY pedal, works in either A/B or A+B modes changeable via a switch. Footswitch changes between A & B sockets when in A/B mode, has no effect in A+B mode. Completely passive operation, takes a 9v adapter for the LED display (red/green for A/B, yellow for A+B). Boxed with hard velcro on the back. 15 notes posted.
  3. 2 pickguards for a Fender Player series MIM P/J Mustang, one tortoiseshell, one black pearl. The tortoiseshell one came fitted on the bass when I bought it, got the black pearl as a replacement but it has a glittery, 3D-type effect that I wasn't keen on. The black pearl was only fitted for a week or so, both are in excellent condition. Don't have a picture of the tortoiseshell one fitted but here's the catalogue image for reference: ..and the black pearl (more of a dark grey IMO): 20 notes each including postage, or both for 35.
  4. Nano delay pedal with controls for timing, echo & feedback amount, clone of the MXR Carbon Copy. True bypass, requires a power supply as there's no room for a battery. YouTube demo: The velcro's come off since these pictures were taken. No box, 20 notes delivered.
  5. Marshall PEDL-00001 footswitch for sale, compatible with any single-channel Marshall footswitch input. Comes with a 5 metre cable. Why hang on, I hear you cry, isn't that the same pedal Bass Wielder was flogging just a minute ago? Why yes, yes it is, my old footswitch packed in so I got a replacement but it turns out it's the amp that's knackered not the footswitch har har har. Here's a link to PMT's product page because Marshall's one gives an internal server error lol: https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/marshall-pedl-00001-universal-footswitch 15 notes posted.
  6. Boxed as new TC Electronic Prophet delay for sale, digital delay pedal with 3 base modes (1/16th, 1/8th & 3/8ths of a second) with dials for fine control of the timing, number of repeatss & wet / dry mix. True bypass with a soft footswitch, it's the larger top-mounting TCE enclosure not the mini. YouTube demo, once again for guitar as the bass demo TCE put out is truly dreadful: 30 notes posted
  7. These are fantastic octave pedals, for my money the "classic" voice is the best (least "warbly") octave up other than the POG2 which is like 3 times the price, scuffs up really nicely and there's barely anything in it quality-wise. Given that you can mod it eight ways from Sunday via the TonePrint app as well these are head and shoulders above most of the many, many octave pedals I've tried - if you don't need any of the stock functionality you can override any of the dials to control any of the other parameters on offer, even doing mad stuff like controlling up to three variables on one dial!
  8. Lekato wireless system & charging box for sale, two USB-C chargeable dongles with a chargeable carry case. Fantastic for trying out wireless playing without breaking the bank, I liked them so much I upgraded to a Boss WL-50 after a couple of months. Completely eliminates pickup hum / grounding issues at the same time as getting rid of cable drag, and stops you yanking your whole pedal setup off the kitchen table when you're jamming out like a fourteen year old although that may just be a me issue. They pair in seconds and the 6ms latency isn't noticeable to my ears. Decent range on them, not bothered by plasterboard walls but don't get too much metal inbetween the dongles otherwise the signal can stutter. Marketing blumf rates them as having 6 hours use fully charged but I'd put it at half that, they do charge quickly either in the case or directly via USB-C tho. They're very light, and given the 3.5mm / 6.35mm adapters there's an inherent flimsiness to the jacks (and the case lid to be fair) so don't expect to be handing these down to your grandkids but they're sturdy enough for regular use.

  9. Sold a couple of pedals to Andy, paid promptly and confirmed receipt, super easy transaction, recommended.
  10. Boxed as new TC Electronic Thunderstorm flanger for sale, all analogue bucket brigade circuit, dials for rate, depth, feedback & manual tone. True bypass with a soft footswitch, it's the larger top-mounting TCE enclosure not the mini. YouTube demo: 30 notes posted
  11. There's no age limit on pedals! Use whatever you want, it's your sound, no-one else really cares that much! As for fiddling around with settings on stage, that's what soundcheck is for. Some effects are gonna be always on (compressors, preamps, eqs), some are gonna be on for some songs and not others, and others yet are gonna be turned on and off mid-song, but that's what the footswitches are for. Petty much no-one will get on their knees and start turning dials in the middle of a song, and not many will tweak their settings between songs unless there's something obviously wrong somewhere. As for things being confusing on stage, if you can remember when to change from the verse to the chorus you can remember when to step on the fuzz button, that's all there is to it really.
  12. Bought a noise gate from Ian, delivered next day with fantastic packaging, great comms throughout, cheers chief
  13. Boxed as new polyphonic octave pedal with up & down octaves as well as dry signal all mixable as stock, and pretty much configurable to whatever combination of voices you want via the TonePrint app. the TonePrint stuff is super flexible, there's a bunch of presets if you don't fancy getting into the weeds, but super simple to get really specific sounds if you do. I've been using this exclusively as an octave up, for instance; octave volume on the middle dial and drive and resonance on the other two. IMO the "classic" voice available via the TonePrint app is the least "warbly" / organ-like (organic?) of the octave pedals I've tried (OC-5, POG, SY-1) and scuffs up very nicely when fuzz is added to it, almost none of that synthetic / echo-ey quality remains in the wet signal. Tracks immediately and accurately all over the fretboard, and handles 4-note polyphonic phrasing. Bass specific YouTube review: 50 notes posted, I bought it for 60 so hoo boy are you getting a bargain here, friendo. Will restore to the stock poly voice settings before sending it out.
  14. Transparent overdrive that does a good job of replicating the classic Motown board sound, this can double as either a low gain drive or a clean boost depending on your requirements. It doesn't get even remotely cronchy or hairy tho; a B3K this is not. Does work well in front of other dirtboxes to give them an extra bit of oomph tho. Some light scuffing to the front fascia and the dial markers aren't as clear as they once were but it's in perfect working order other than that. No box. Obligatory YouTube vid: 50 notes posted.
  15. As new & boxed TC Electronic Skysurfer reverb pedal for sale, three modes (spring / plate / hall), dials for effect level, wet / dry mix & tone. True bypass with a soft footswitch, it's the larger top-mounting TCE enclosure not the mini. Youtube demo, it's for guitar rather than bass cuz the bass demo video for this stone cold dogshit: 25 notes posted.
  16. You are not too old for this sort of thing. This is the most ubiquitous bass fuzz for a reason, plug it back in and have another go. Start with the blend at midday, sustain all the way up and tone at the point it starts "biting" (usually around 1-2 o' clock). It's an absolute banger of a pedal.
  17. Thanks again for the heads up, these were 100% what I was looking for. They feel great with zero string noise, they've bedded in over the last month but have lost none of the high end articulation and sound absolutely fantastic. Can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for short scale half-rounds (or whatever they're commonly known as).
  18. Jim bought a pedal off me, paid and confirmed receipt promptly. Extra marks for being super helpful about some questions I had and for being a pleasure to deal with in general.
  19. Fully herniated L5/S1, treated it so far by building up legs, core & upper back to take as much load off my spine as possible and I use the lightest bass I can stomach (SG). Even with all that the strap still makes a big difference, a standard 2 inch leather / nylon strap gets uncomfortable within an hour where as a wider, padded one can sit on my shoulder for much longer before the weight becomes an issue. Love playing my Jaguar but I end up paying for it the next day if I carry it for a full two hours, so I've been pretty much short scale only for the last couple of years.
  20. Fantastic stuff, will give them a punt then, thanks again.
  21. They look absolutely perfect, cheers chief, in stock in the UK to boot. How have you found them over time, a couple of the comments remark that they settle in to a "mellow" flat sound, do they maintain much of their initial brightness once they're worn in?
  22. Looking for a set of short scale strings with the feel and low string noise of flats while retaining the high end articulation of rounds, if such a thing exists any more. Used to have a set of D'Addario SS XL Half Rounds which were absolutely bang on the money, but it doesn't look like they make them any more sad face emoji. Heard good things about GHS pressurewounds too, but can only find a single light gauge set listed anywhere and no-one has any in stock, boo hoo. Anybody know if these are still a thing? Super annoying that they've got like half a dozen names for the same thing too, doesn't make tracking them down any easier.
  23. Sansamp BDDI knockoff, sounds great, only bought it two weeks ago but I got hold of this new and improved version like two days later, so you, dear reader, get to buy this old and inferior one! ...and the obligatory youtube review: 20 notes posted.
  24. Vox amPlug2 Bass headphone amp / silent practice tool for sale, packaged as new. Plugs into your output jack, has a 3.5mm headphone socket and an additional 3.5mm aux in for playing along to your phone / mp3 player. Comes with a bunch of gain & tone settings as well as some in-built drum patterns to play along with. Amazon page here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/amPlug2-AP2-BS-Headphone-Amplifier-Rhythms/dp/B00NAUKJTY/ And the least annoying youtube video I could find here: 20 notes posted.
  25. Bought a drum machine off Steve, very easy, hassle free transaction. Great comms, was posted first class the day after payment, turned up packaged well and the item itself was in mint condition. Steve also managed the license transfer for the associated software quickly and without issue. Two thumbs up.
