Well it’s a result of just having a solid board which has all I need. I look at the effects forums and for sale stuff but boring old me is actually really happy with the board and instead of wanting stuff I think I should buy I’m enjoying having exactly what I need. 
 

If the mods wish to remove the post/thread feel free to do so and slap my wrists.
 

I use a pretty decent sized board (there’s two Lightening Boy Audio 2020s transformers underneath along with a Thumpinator too which you can’t see in the picture) so I’m not against effects nor am I trolling. 

Selling a really nice and resonant P bass. The body is a Jon Shuker p bass body fashioned from some nice Alder in a wonderful natural finish. The neck is the “famed” Japanese PB70US-70, impeccably finished and nicer than the Nate Medel fender which has the same spec carve/shape. I’ve owned a fair few P basses and this late 70’s (B carve I think) is my favourite sitting between a P and J with a 40mm nut. The body’s neck joint was tailored for this specific neck so it’s a comfy fit made by one of the U.K.’s best! 
 
A Jon Shuker p bass starts at about £1800 and while this isn’t a full Shuker the quality is there to see. 

A few years back I had a pro luthier route the bass and shield it so I could put in any pick up of my choosing and it’s currently got a Ki0g0n solderless loom with a David Allen 1080P pick up which really sounds great in this bass in a reverse p configuration. 
 

A couple of pics to get you stated and I’ll add more later. Shipping is an option but I’d really rather meet. @Walshy has a man with a van who we could use but that would be up for discussion as a 50/50 cost split. I think I have a couple of scratch plates for this two in reverse p and regular p. 
 

Sorry Scott it’s sold. 
 

I’ll update the thread. 

I might be tempted to list my p bass for sale and see what happens😀

Do you know anyone after a great p bass? 

Here mine sitting on top

of the amp in the spare room after running through some tunes 

I was a big detractor of the DG sound but really enjoyed the AO

Is that the Camden EC1? How is it?

Check the Amos Heller demo on you tube. He gets great tones and shows off the versatility of the unit.

I put a led strip under mine too! It’s usb powered from the fender power brick. Classy!

if I had to sell all my pedals - my one of these would be the last to go.

 

I would be out of tune but I would sound great!

For me it’s the Simone preamp. If I didn’t have Simone this would be staying put. 

Bumpt 

Basswitch is a really clean pre and two bands of semi para mids two fx loops, a boost, two inputs for two bass or you can A/B the preamp on/off transformer in the DI and just a wonderful clean sound. The lows are set low but it’s never muddy or undefined. 
 

I’ve had one for about 10yrs and wouldn’t sell it even though it’s not on my board just now it’s a keeper for me! 
 

I think there was one for sale on the forum quite recently. 

We scope and trawl and hunt and scavenge yet when we take stock on the gig and listen… our needs are 98% met. 
 

Buy less enjoy more. If it’s not working turn it off and enjoy not using it. If it works enjoy it for what it does. If it’s not quite right make the call and step on or don’t step on. 
 

be the antithesis of a forum.

Don’t think so.

 

This topic comes up occasionally about possible upgrades (mods) to Dimension basses since nobody seems to stock the pups off the shelf. There were some complaints of “clicking” when the strings touched the pole-pieces……..but hardly something that couldn’t be fixed by a decent set up.

Or tape

My mate has a 5 string passive USA model which he pipped me at the post on in a local gumtree sale. 
 

I keep wanting to offer to buy it off him as it was only £650

Is this the all mahogany one? 

You should try a Jule Simone. Very impressive sound and feature set! 

That’s why I like it. You can dial it in to be massive 

The duality is such a great fuzz. Could it be described as a sleeper pedal from DG? 
 

I love the range of the unit and am very happy with mine. 

Bump see above post for features and updates

Shameless plug  but this does the warm bluesy drive thing better than most pedals I've tried over the years.

 

 

I have one of these and it’s a cracking pedal. It’s a low gain unit which is very tweakanke to get it dialled in to suit. I’ve used a spark booster and would

place the BetaV as the love child of the of the original Beta, the Spark booster and EHX bass soul food. 

I wonder if many folks are now

gonna consider the HX Stomp as an alternative to the Noble. 
 

It’s great to see the ongoing support and updates having added value for long time users of the HX units. 

Damn my car!

Paddy 777 - did your Caveman Audio Compact arrive? What do you think of it for playing through your amp direct? Cheers.

@Paddy777

If you've got some spare cash also check out the Ian Martin Allison (IMA) patches - his synth ones were fun to play with, but I've never used them live.

 

 

Snap 😀
