  1. Paypal preferred, cheque OK though. No trades ta.

    The near-legendary [b]Akai Headrush E1 Tap Delay/Tape Echo Simulator/Looping Recorder[/b]
    The Headrush has 3 modes:
    Loop Recording: can record a single loop up to 23.8 seconds long or an overdubbed loop up to 11.9 seconds.
    Tap Delay: the maximum tap tempo delay time is 23.8 seconds.
    Tape Echo: designed to simulate a 4 head analogue tape delay ("Copicat"). Each 'head' has its own output, so you can send multiple signals from the Headrush to multiple amps or mixer channels.
    Mint condition. Only ever used for a bit of experimentation at home, has never left the house. Boxed, with original power supply and blurb.

    [b]Hartke VXL Attack tone-shape preamp[/b]
    What they say: [i]"Hartke's VXL Bass Attack Pedal is a tone-shaping pre-amp that doubles as a direct box, featuring the famous Hartke Shape Circuitry. The two-button style stomp box has a three band EQ for adjustments of Bass, Treble, and Bright controls, plus a Harmonic control that emulates the warmth and drive of a tube so well that you'll never want to turn it off. The Hartke Bass Attack Pedal gives you the ability to finally get the sound you want, and everything in between."[/i]
    What I say: totally unused. In fact, it's still sealed in the original plastic bag. Thomann want £85 plus postage for these, but you can get this one for

    [b]Yamaha OC-01 Octaver[/b]
    In very good original condition. Bit of a rare bird, this -- in fact, this is the only one I've ever seen. Identical to the Korg OCT-1, and you don't see many of them either. Sounds utterly superb, better to my ears than the 'classic' Boss OC2. It certainly tracks far better than any other octave I've tried. Nobody in the world seems to have the first idea what the 'polarity' switch does... it doesn't seem to have an audible effect anyway.
    I like this one a lot.

    EDIT: unfortunately I appear to have accidentally deleted the pic. So here links to pics of similar pedals. I will reinstate my pic when I get home later. Sorry..!

    That'd be partly down to the fuel duty hike too. Daylight bastid robbery. :)
    And my weekly rail season has gone up by nearly 7%.

  4. I'm generally happy with the reviews (although if I see the phrase "dialled in" used once more, I shall scream). And unlike a lot of people, I like the idea of interviews with lesser known players -- I'd far rather see that than yet another interview with Stuart Zender.
    Proofreading still requires major attention though. Far too many elementary cockups are still getting through.

  5. First:
    Höfner Artist II -> Phoenix PHA1 amp -> Custom Sound 4x12 cab

    Current:
    Shuker custom/Status S1/Wal Pro IIE -> Genz Benz Shuttle 6.0 -> 2 x Nemesis 1x15 cabs

    I wish I still had the Hofner.

    I've still got mine.
    I get a big nostalgia rush every time I pick it up. My goal is to finally make it giggable again, it's got that fabulous 'woof' in the sound that you only get from clunky short scale 60s basses. I also need to get hold of a replacement plastic logo for the headstock, but the last one to appear on fleaBay went for £62... :)

  6. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='1064867' date='Dec 20 2010, 06:07 PM']I ask only because they've approached us about sponsorship and say they've been getting a lot of traffic from Basschat. I'm really curious to know why, I can't see any obvious connection.[/quote]
    I'm struggling to resist making any sort of comment about heavy metal...

  7. I use a bit of chorus (Boss) and phase (Ibanez) in a couple of places, to add a bit of colour. I use an old Yamaha octaver on a couple of tunes, and some really filthy nasty distortion (Ibanez Phat Hed) on occasion. I also have a Korg tuner and a Boss volume pedal.
    Thinking of getting a Bass Pod XT Live to replace that lot, and give me some other possibilities.

    You might well find that your bass needs a 'chinese 4mm' key... i.e. anywhere between about 3.5 and 4.5mm without actually being 4mm.

    [size=1]ps. I still listen frequently to your Kirby Dots album... mesmerising stuff.[/size]
