IF I GIVE HER ANY MORE CAP'N, SHE'LL BLOW!

It's a homemade mute switch (hence the full name 'Shut The Fucupcakes' ) with a tuner output, and two status LEDs... an nice steady turquoise one for normal, and a bright flashing orange one for muted. 

Now this is the way to sell a body. Exact dimensions of the neck pocket, thus avoiding any uncertainty as to whether the neck will fit or not. Nice one.

Can I appeal to anyone who sells a neck or body to do the same thing please? 30 seconds with a ruler can save all sorts of complications.

Well, I've done the usual thing that I'm sure many of us have done. Got the board sorted, happy with all the pedals and their order, sounding good and working well, no need to change anything. And then change it.  

The old FrankenP'd BDI21 has gone, to be replaced by the Wine Cellar. Why? I just fancied a change, is all. If I find I don't get on with it in practice, I'll have another change. The BDI was a good unit, in fact a great one in its modded state, but I was just curious to see how the Wino would stack up. I'm sure at some point this too might find itself replaced by an A7K or something, but for the moment it's fine. 

The only other differences are ones you can't see - switching and LED changes in the Fucupcakes and the black loop. 

Speaking as the owner/builder of a board that could be described as, what was it, "hard to distinguish from a pallet"?  that looks fabulous. I saw one on farcebook that someone had made from some really exotic woods, and TBH this looks just as good.

I'm guessing you mean this one?

I have no knowledge of these basses but I'm guessing it's a DPDT toggle switch of some sort. 

Patrick bought my EMG pickups. Very quick and easy transaction, lightning fast payment. Great stuff.

I bought Chris' Wine Cellar. (The pedal, not the subterranean storage facility for fermented fruit beverages.)

Dead easy transaction, arrived pronto in bomb-proof packaging. Who could want for anything more? Thanks Chris!

This seems to be fairly typical of EBMM QC standards at the moment. Absolutely diabolical. You get better fit and finish on a £120 Harley Benton.

Unless you've been in a cave for 30 years, you'll know about this thing. There are about eleventy gazillion Youtube videos of people demoing them etc., and they do a better job of describing it than I could.

This is from Behringer's website:

There's also a YT video by a chap called FrankenP, detailing a modification to remove the annoying mid cut that the stock unit has. I've performed this mod and it absolutely transformed the sound.

I also fitted replacement 1900-style knobs which look better, feel better and are LOADS easier to see than the originals. 

The less said about the interior foam for this case, the better...  

Thankfully, easily sorted. 

Can't afford it, don't need it at all, I already have everything I need.

Bought it anyway.   headless bass itch well and truly scratched.
Series S4000 I believe, serial number is 235... I have no idea how to age it though, any ideas? I had no idea these things were so heavy though!
I changed the batteries and one of the connectors fell apart as I unclipped it, so it now has shiny new battery clips   but everything else is perfect. Can't wait to wheel it out at a rehearsal.

I would love one of these. I have no gig for it at all, and don't envisage a suitable one any time in the future, so it would basically never leave the house. But I would love one anyway.

Are YOU having a problem with the weight? If not then don't worry about what others think

This.

I know there's no way I could gig a 13lb bass, but it's not my bass, it's yours -- if you're happy to live with the weight because you love the sound, that's all that matters.

Aye. I've seen far better than this on £70 Westfields.

@Chezz55 is this still available?
