  2. [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Tech 21 VT Bass Pedal – the one that emulates an SVT, and emulate it it does![/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Been housed on my pedal board so in very good nick other than usual velcro on base. Comes in original Tech 21 tin and has ‘user manual’ which consists of a small card with some recommended settings![/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Used by me as an ‘always on’ pedal after I sold my valve amp to get me that driven SVT tone. However, ive got a new all valve rig now so this is no longer needed.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Collection from Bolton is welcome but will also post recorded delivery in UK for £5[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]£95.00 collected and pics to follow[/color][/size][/font]

  4. Nick bought a set of flats from me. Effortlessly smooth transaction. No worries here
  5. Alex purchased my EHX Muff Pedal in an effortlessly smooth transaction. No worries here
  6. £200 collected to help fund a valve bill?

  8. Yup, im in Bolton and use jack. Locally there's Phil Hartley (uber expensive - £100 for set up and fret dress!!!!), the guy in PMT (never been overley impressed), Andy Tatlock (never used him myself)
  9. [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Sadowsky Black Label flats 45-105 with about 5hrs use on them. Not quite old school thumpy enough for me and my vintage tastes. Lovely highly polished feel and very reasonable tension. Has silver silk that matches the string itself.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Had to unpick the silk a little on the E string at the bridge end to fit my epi t’bird bridge.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Cut for 4 in line headstock[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]£20 delivered to UK address?[/color][/size][/font]
  10. New amp is incoming so need this gone but also means ill potentially have packing materials to enable shipping
  11. Be interested to hear how you get on. Im on a never ending mission with flats! Tried everything from Picato, fender, elites, status, sadiwsky etc. Still searching fir THE one

  14. Cant seem to edit the price but it should read £250 not £300
  15. [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Ampeg SVT 350H Solid State amp in an SVT disguise. Made in USA[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Bought this a while back and it has a few issues that I needed to sort:-[/color][/size][/font] [list] [*]It had no knobs at all. These are very hard to find as well. The ones you always see for sale are for the D Shafts used in the valve ampegs. The 350H has ‘normal’ shafts. As such the knobs I bought (whilst cosmetically EXACTLY the same) are not ‘official’ ampeg. [*]The HT fuse holder was missing – again very hard to find. I found you either has to replace the entire fuse gubbins or search high and low for the correct holder. Eventually I sourced one from USA - £35 for a tiny piece of plastic! [/list] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Once id sorted these issues the amp powered up fine and works a treat. The fan is a little noisy so I also bought a rubber gasket that fits between the fan and chassis. This has quietened it down quite a bit. I do have a replacement brand new fan to the correct specs that ill throw in with the amp.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]The toelx is scraped and brusied. The two ‘biggest’ spots being on the front corners where the wood is exposed. I have coloured this in with black marker and now isn’t too noticeable from a distance. There are a couple of the EQ sliders missing but still fully operational (I use my plectrum to adjust the ones with missing tips)[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]I run this amp with the matching Ampeg 410he and with a VT pedal in from gives an authentic tubey type ampeg growl. Engaging the graphic EQ add’s that chest thump I like.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Viewings and trials welcome. Collection will be from Bolton or I can deliver locally if needed. Selling as ive seen something from our very own Mr.Foxen that has fired up GAS again.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Pics to follow and questions welcome[/color][/size][/font]
  16. Yup, based in Little Lever for my sins
  17. [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Still going through flatwounds to find my absolute fave (found them for my P bass but not my Thunderbird)[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]As such I have the following 2 set available for Trade for other flats (ideally looking to try lightish gauge Chromes, Sadowsky, Fenders etc)[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [b][u][font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Set 1 – Elites Detroit Flats (45-105)[/color][/size][/font][/u][/b] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Had literally 10mins play. Only ‘defect’ is I has to trim the silk at the ball end on the E to fit my bridge. Cut for 4 in line (T’bird)[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [b][u][font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Set 2 – Status Graphite Flats (45-105)[/color][/size][/font][/u][/b] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Had 1 x rehearsal but were too dark for my Jack Casady (so cut for 2 x 2)[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Looking for other flats that will fit 4-in-line headstock. Preferably something a bit more modern sounding than full on thud.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [color="#000000"]What ya got[/color]
  18. [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]My current covers band does Chelsea Dagger by Fratellis and I’m looking for something that will give me a trebly, clanky and [i]slightly[/i] dirty sound but enough bass not to drop out of the song – something sounding like what id imagine a Rickenbacker through a valve amp would sound like.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Ive tried a Big Muff and also a Boss Bluesdriver, whilst the Boss gets close its still a bit too fuzzy. My rig probably doesn’t help too much – P Bass with Flats > Tech 21 VT > Ampeg 350h > Ampeg 410he.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]I get that the flats probably wont help but I do believe that the bass player from fratellis also uses flats on a P albeit through an SVT valve amp that probably helps.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Is there any pedal that would get me close to this type of sound without costing the earth?[/color][/size][/font]
  19. [size="3"][color="#000000"][font="Calibri"]My Japanese Fender PB70 has developed a problem in that the G string machine head no longer holds tune. Im looking for a replacement and will probably end up replacing all 4 tuners. I think it is going to be pretty much impossible to find a drop-in replacement set that won’t involve drilling [/font][font=Wingdings][font=Wingdings]L[/font][/font][font="Calibri"].[/font][/color][/size] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]In keeping with the 70’s vibe of the bass I have seen the Fender Pure Vintage 70’s Machine Heads that look similar but possible with a larger back plate which could obviously prove problematic. I know there a few PB70 owners on here so has anyone replaced their machine heads at all? If so what with, a cheekily, did you keep the originals?[/color][/size][/font]
  20. Yup, I could never get a decent sound out of the 120 either. Took it to a tech and had it all revalved and recapped etc and still couldn't get a decent tone at any real volume.
  21. Hot Covers everytime, waaaaay better than roqsolids offerings, both in quality and price
