Getting my subscriptions worth. For sale: my favourite fuzz pedal. Why? I accidentally bought two. An extremely versatile pedal, it can do over the top wall of fuzz as the name suggests but also (and this is how I use it) a more applicable tubey-overdrive sound (think Lullabyes-era QOTSA). Three band EQ with a switch for the mid frequency, volume, gain, blend and a 'blowtorch' button to fosters off the sound guy mid set. Very much "used" condition in terms of wear but entirely superficial. No velcro or gunk but could do with some rubber feets if you're not taping it down. haha donkey. £60 £50 plus postage (Royal Mail or Hermes) and open to trades.

An exceedingly fun pedal but absolutely wasted on me. Practically new, never gigged, will be given a good dust n' vaccum if sold. Works pefectly well for bass as well as guitar, has a modern polytonal mode as well as the classic sound and has two very nice chorus (or 'detune') effects. £110 plus postage and I'm open to trades.

Good communication, quick delivery, well packaged item. Full marks from me.

Used but fully working condition (see pic) with original box and gubbins. Batteries sold separately. Wonderful fuzz pedal, so wonderful I ended up getting two from eBay. Does everything: little bit of grit, tubey overdrive, Muse stuff, synthy stuff etc. The blend control and adjustable mid frequency boost/cut make this extremely usable. Note that it takes an 18v power supply or two 9v batteries. Only looking at trades at the moment, currently rebuilding my pedalboard. I'm not after anything specific but these went for about £120 new so I'll take something used that might have been around that when it was new. Open to offers +/- cash but if you're expecting dosh from me then it'll probably need to wait til payday next week. Will happily add a tenner to trade for an old style Sansamp VT (the blue one). COVID-19 stuff: The pedal, gubbins and box will all be disinfected before shipping and I will only finalize any deal once I'm sure I can post it - don't want to take your stuff then find out I can't follow up. Collection is, of course, out of the question for the time being.

Gotta be Jaco Pastorius for elevating the instrument massively. I learned so much when it came to technique (fretted and fretless) from even attempting to play some of his more famous bass lines.

Free: Marlin Precision Bass in need of a little TLC
jonsparrow91 replied to jonsparrow91's topic in Basses For Sale
No problem. Again I'll be waiting til people have seen pictures and videos but consider yourself first in the queue. Do remember though that it is a precision neck so it suits larger hands better and you might want to give the electronics a good do over before putting it in any kind of important situation. -

You're 3rd at the moment. You haven't seen the resonator. I don't think I can give it away for ethical reasons: the headstock seems to have been repaired with a poorly applied mixture of glue and screws and the resonator cone itself is held in place with the same overly large (and sharp) wood screws so the whole thing is a death trap. (For the record I actually found this in the garage of an old flat along with a TV and a few billion spiders. Pretty sure there are still spiders in the resonator cone.) -

(Pictures/video pending, typing this up at work while I have the willpower) Bought from some dude in Bristol and amputated all the bits that weren't working, stripped right down to a basic precision bass. Pickup routing for split coil pickup and a double jazz pickup (this wasn;t functioning, I think it had rusted up so I whipped it out). Very nice flat n' wide precision neck, varnished but well used so not sticky. I'd dismantle it and keep the neck if it'd fit on any of my other instruments. Electronics need a lot of TLC. While you can plug and play it the pots and output jack are noticeable loose (and in the wrong places) and a new cover would need to be made if you were to gig it. Supplied without strings as this has been my motowny bass of choice for a while so it has either Thomastik Infeld or Ernie Ball flats on it, either way I'll be keeping them. You don't want the funk that's kept in them anyway. I can't overstate how nice this bass is to play but it's been a 'project bass' for about 6 years at this point and I haven't once had the time and drive to do anything with it. Collection from Colnbrook (SL3) ideally. I've no amp set up at the moment (nor the room for one, hooray for VST plugins) but you're welcome to test it acoustic like. Can travel into London if fares are covered but it'll be supplied without a gig bag (none spare). No delivery, I'm afraid, as my schedule doesn't allow me to wait in for couriers.

Cheapey Chinese Spector; defretted/filled/varnished by yours truly; heavily used in the past but now gathering dust. Free to a good home where it might get played. Ideal for anyone wanting to have a go at a fretless without having to spend any money. Action is as low as it'll get without getting farty but it's still a little bit of a strength exercise with one or two very small dead zones. Currently has a set of embarrassingly patriotic strings on it: red, white and blue coated DR Hi-Defs - supplying these free of charge as none of my other basses are humbucking so I can't use coated strings on them without getting static crackles. Electronics are functioning, two passive EMG humbuckers (not HZ series) with vol/vol/tone, there's a second tone knob which doesn't work but both tone knobs affect both pickups so it was completely redundant anyway. Huge chunk of varnish missing from the back, I think I attempted to smooth it down at one point, I don't remember; I got this bass halfway through uni so I don't remember much of its early life. See (pending) pictures for more details. Whoever takes it must promise to either use it or pass it on to someone who. No binning it. Getting rid because it's not getting used and it's taking up space, which is in short supply. Collection from Colnbrook (SL3) ideally.

[size=5]For sale; no trades, thank you.[/size] [size=5][b]1. Mooer Mod Factory - Digital Multi Effects. £25 plus postage.[/b][/size] Good selection of sounds from this box from choruses to ring modulators and other weirdness. I pissed about with on my my own for about 4 hours when I first got it. "[i]Used" [/i]condition with a few scratches in the paint here and there but in perfect working order. [u][b]Needs a 9v power supply[/b][/u] in order run, there's no room for a battery in this little one. [b][size=5]2. Ashdown Dual Band Compressor. £15 plus postage[/size].[/b]A big chunk of metal but some pretty nice tones. Sadly it's no use to me as the fuzz pedal I use is very temperamental and demands to be at the front of my signal chain and, as you can see from the packaging, this compressor is [b][u]only for use with low output, passive instruments[/u][/b] (or else it farts out.) "[i]Very used" [/i]condition with a missing battery cover but still very useable, assuming your bass isn't too hot. [size=6][b][u]Special offer:[/u] Buy both and I'll throw in postage [u]free![/u] It's a pain in the arse to get to the post office so I'd rather not go twice.[/b][/size]

Perfect condition, boxed and price includes delivery. (Pictures soon.) Great little pedal that does it all; chorus, flange, phase, wah, etc. Good for someone who uses these effects infrequently, rather than spending huge sums on one specific effect. Also does some rather crazy sh*t like envelope ring modulation and stutter tremelo. I spend a good few hours messing with it when I first got it but it sadly has no place in my current project. So 30 quid by bank transfer or trades for whathaveyou.
