  1. Looking forward to getting this on my secondary ‘fly’ board, essentially doing a similar job as the Noble on my main board (ie Preamp/DI at the end of the chain): Si
  2. Kinda what you get with counterfeit goods 🤷‍♂️ Si

    All I can tell you is that my mates one is quiet 🤷‍♂️ Si
  4. These are great, even more gnarley than the originals…and that’s saying something! Si
  5. Picked this up recently and, while it’s awesome, it’s not quite the right sound for the application I have in mind. Comes in original box. Product info: https://www.darkglass.com/creation/microtubes-b7k-ultra/ Just to note, this is the latest v2, which includes Aux in, headphone out, and a switchable cab sim on the DI out. The loaded IR is currently a 2x12. £220 inc UK postage. Try me with trades/part ex’s, I’d be particularly interested in a Cioks DC7. Cheers Si
  6. They’d be easier to get about huh 😂 Si
  7. I’m selling one in the classifieds…because I have 3 haha (kinda 4 actually, but the 4th is a P/J). Si
  8. I just discovered a band called Green Druid (which I’m assuming is a play on Orange Goblin). Really enjoying this album: Si
  9. I don’t know for sure, but I’m pretty sure they were all Ash by this point, could be wrong though. Si
  10. Bit of a feeler, but needs must somewhat. I may withdraw though. 1978 Precision bass in a nicely aged Olympic White: - Original finish throughout - Original pickup & pots - Original scratchplate - Original hardware other than knobs, which are RI replacements - Original thumbrest is included - Pickup ashtray cover is missing. - B width neck - 9.5lbs - Lovely dark rosewood board - Tight neck pocket - Simple gig bag included or you can take a Reunion Blues gigbag for an extra £50 I’d prefer collection/meet-up if at all possible. Lovely bass, in decent condition for the age, sounds awesome and is a good weight for the era. Only interested in an MXR M81 Preamp as a part-ex. Ignore the saddles and janky 80’s piezo here, original saddles are fitted now. Cheers Si

    Don’t totally discount the HB, a friend of mine, who is a particularly discerning producer with a LOT of vintage guitars, swears by his…gets some great sounds out of it with some Tapewounds. I’ve played it, it’s quiet, so I’d suggest others issue are purely because they are cheap and prone to QA issues, not because they are all inherently noisy. Si
  12. For me, this largely hinges on what power module is being used. We’ll see. Tbf, I like the look of the prototype haha. Si
  13. Cute little ‘clean’ board (ie no dirt) to make some giggling use of my 3Leaf Enabler, previously reduced to headphone amp duties at home. Si
  14. Bought a B7K Ultra off JD and all went well, quick comms, very quick postage. Cheers very much! Si
  15. Some interesting thoughts, I’ll pass them on 🙂 Si
  16. Paging @Tech21NYC Si
  17. Thanks, it’s a bittersweet move as they’re a great company making genuinely amazing gear! Yeah that’s a great way to work, loads of options! Si
  18. Ah nice, this is who I work for (for the next two weeks anyway haha). Really glad you’re enjoying it! It’s a bit of a sleeper preamp for bass! Hyper clean, but then add it the Mojo to taste (I loooove cream for that). Tim Lefebvre’s preamp of choice for recording! Si // Cranborne Audio
  19. Purchased a Pedaltrain Nano+ from Alex, quick delivery, quick comms, as described, brilliant. Cheers bud Si
  20. Oh I agree, for US built, it wasn’t immediately clear though, so the price tag was jarring at first. Si
  21. Came out of a 1978 Precision that now has its original pickup back. Fantastic sounding, although I’m afraid I don’t know what the wind is. Interested in potential trades of: - MXR M80 DI+ - Darkglass B7K Ultra V2 £80 including UK delivery. Cheers Si
  22. What is going on with The Beach Boys and pedals at the mo?! Totally irrelevant collab, but everyone doing it?! Keeley just announced this: Si
  23. Abe Laboriel on bass for that recording, little known fact. Si
  24. You and me both haha. Fortunately for me, I don't need a fretless (and yes I've looked into whether it might be possible to fret this haha). Si
  25. They’re listing them on their website for £3195….so they’re gonna need to be hand built IMO. It mentions that they are ‘USA Master Series’, but stops short of saying where they’re built. Edit: Had to dig, but elsewhere on the site it states that “The Master Series lineup is designed and crafted in Southern California”. Si
