Wren and Cuff do a range of muff derived fuzzes some specifically tweaked for bass and with blend knob to mix is a clean signal too - the Pickle Pie B is their take on the Way Huge swollen pickle/ EHX big muff. Sound demo's on the youtubes. Worth a look!

Bought a pedal, paid promptly and was a genuine nice bloke in any correspondence we've had. Enjoy the noisemaker

Bump for added fuzz pic Demeter is a very well made quality pedal. Just been used for some recording on guitar (and with the boost engaged for some bass parts) Not using the drive with bass and for boosting I just got a W&C PPB which takes up less room on my pedal board. Willing to listen to trade offers or p/x plus cash my way- Ideally I dont want to be adding cash to any deal.

Yam hand sold....... Interest in the fuzz and for the guys requesting pic's & video I'm on night shift until next week. Won't realistically be able to get and sound samples until then but I'll update this post when I do. Or you could take a punt if you think a monstrous facebleed fuzz would suit your needs

OK some stuff for sale Basically got these pedals for some recording with the band for different tones and textures for bass and guitar. Don't really do a lot of pedal hopping live so have my basic two pedal set up sorted and wont be needing such a huge array of options live. Demeter FOD: distortion and midboost pedal. Got this recently more for recording than anything else. The mid/phat switch is a great feature- kinda an 'always on' type boost can be sutble or OTT but adds nice presence to your sound. Drive is very valve like but doesn't do crazy. Both drive and boost together can really give a huge sound but not menatl fuzz/filth. Also has a two way mode switch - £102 posted UK Fuzz- modded DODGrunge pedal. This is a much more aggressive pedal than the FOD. It starts out mad and stays angry! The Grunge was always know for its huge amount of low end output and works well with bass. Stripped back finish on the casing with custom pink LED. £47 posted UK Ernie earplugs yam hand feedback regenerator: SOLD Bushy Bison: SOLD Pic's available from next week as the band are experimenting with varying combinations of these and other pedals and I don't have them to hand. Cheers!

Tried one of these at GG last week. I really liked the tone and felt it sounded warm with the drive up a bit. Didn't play about with heaps of settings but you can tell the flexibilty is there (I've some experience recording with the TH preamp/di). I didn't have time to A/B with anything an was playing through a DB cab with the tweeter at about 9 o'clock. Seems like a great compact package and is really too light to believe.

SOLD: Music Man Big Al Special Edition Dargie Delight II
krispn replied to DeepDee's topic in Basses For Sale
Big Al's are one of the best basses out there - I'd put the feelers out on mine a few weeks ago but only cause a USA dark star p/u bass became available but really I don't wanna shift the BA. The neck is too nice plus it really does get every sound you could want. I'm recording just now and I have tones for every possible part I need. In one song alone I have experimented with a Big old school neck pick up tone for intro and verse. It's not so much mudbucker as full bucker. Got the definition but that big warm neck pick up sound. For the chorus I switch it to p bass just to poke up in the mix a little and the same for the break section. In the odd meter proggy bit it's classic p bass and for the little lead sounding bass part I go for MM modern punch. Its not as much of a mess as I make it sound but fun experiment. Once it's all mixed down I'll try and get a clip up This is one of those basses everyone should play at some point. Totally fab! Good luck -
Bit of a hijack but Im using a Bushy Bison woolly mammoth clone into a yam hand feedback regenerater which gives me a great fuzz plus the ability to add in the craziness from the yam hand.Ultimately its not a sound than works in context for what Im actually playing live in my main band just now but it could be someone's perfect sound. Im gonna sell it soon but if you wanna her what the yam hand can do with some volume control manipulation I can pm you a you tube link. Effectively you can 'tune in' the yam hand and get synthy tones on top of your foundation dirt sound. Great potential and super simple to use - stomp on it and tweak your volume knob slightly Like I say gonna sell tha as a set - pm for the big info. thanks g

Just back after jammin' with a covers band and I got every sound I needed. Upfront humbucker tone, classic P bass, even bust out a bit of slap with all pick up buttons in the down position for some Big Luth/Marcus Miller on Never Too Much. Smokin' hot! Get in touch for more info or any questions needing answered. -

More pictures as requested including the neck pocket and the lovely curved heel at the base of the neck. Bass can be demo'd if your local or able to get to Edinburgh. You may struggle finding one in local guitar shops - very few in the country. The neck profile is like a Sterling though so if you can get your hands on one of those you'll have an idea of how it plays. -

I can honestly say this bass is amazing. From the neck profile and finish which is to die for (especially if you like a jazz style neck) to the sheer quality of the build. The pick ups are silent and the eq is more flexible than an Olympic gym team! As for the styling that's an individual thing but this bass is very comfortable to wear on the shoulder - they basically cut around a standard bass so the position on the shoulder is not affected by the shape of the Big Al - at its core it's just like wearing any other well balanced bass. It's actually better balanced than a lot of basses out there with no neck dive. Tonally this has one of the best P bass tones I've played (especially for a rock band with round wound strings) and the passive tone knob woks beautifully and just like you'd expect, it's a slap machine and you can get a huge jazz bass bridge p/u tone especiallyin active mode with just a smidge of eq tweaking. With flat wound strings the BA in the neck p/u sounds delicious (and once you add the middle p bass pick up it gets BIG) - great for playing acoustic gigs (with the bass amp'd/di'd of course) providing a deep rich tone, very supportive and for the classic rock tones that made us all lust after an EB-0 at some point and play Sunshine of Your Love endlessly . The with all buttons either up or down its a classic MM style sound - not identical, it was never meant to be, but sonically, unmistakably coming from the EBMM stable Say what you will about 'Big Poppa' but EBMM continues to push the boundaries of bass manufacture in terms of design and features. Thank Christ some one is...no wait thats unfair Fender just released that 70's block neck P bass (that they never released in 1970 and the jazz pick up'd p bass and p p/u'd jazz bass??? I'll get pic's tomorrow promise but it looks just like the one in the links posted in the original post and in Turk's. Both the links posted give a really good insight into what this bass is capable of but I'm hunting down a Darkstar'd bass in an exotic, distant land! Thanks -
Ok so a feeler as I know there have been efforts to shift these basses on here with limited success! Big Al SSS maple/vintage sunburst - £1150 includes hard case and candy and can ship with flats or rw strings. It is the African mahog not alder body. Fully active (4band eq) or passive (vintage tone control) This bass will do almost any sound you are after and is a monster Basically seen something available in the USA which is quite rare and a bass I've been after for a while - time is tight so any takers get in touch Pic's to follow

Gareth, Have you always played with JFMBC? You guys are fantastic. A few years back my humble wee band played the first ever live gig in the Spring and Airbrake, you guys were gigging in there the next night! Oh and I've seen your campsite sets at Oxygen a few times too ) Brilliant both in the performance and the idea to get a bit of pre-festival groove goin'. I'f I'm not working I'll swing by and say hello! Just checked and I'm on night shift that week Mr Dick, The perf board might well be a better idea - I never even thought to consider that. Cheers for the suggestion. Gavin

Yeah I can see the looks I'll get in Maplin's with my Northern Irish accent here in Edinburgh. "Gee us a bag 'a Ferric Chloride mucker!"

As it says above I have a couple of copper image etches (I've no idea if thats the correct name for it) that I'd like to have etched. I'd be willing to contribute to the cost of having it done - I'm thinking about getting a kit but was looking to give 'self building' a go first before buying a heap of gear to do the job. If anyone can help PM and I'll get in touch for a chat. Cheers G
