    Good solid transaction, lots of communication. Recommended

    I have for sale [s]1) Subdecay Prometheus envelope filter - £125[/s] 2) Chunk Systems Brown Dog gated fuzz pedal - £150 [s][u]Subdecay Prometheus[/u] This is one of the most versatile envelope filters I have come across with the step filter offering incredible synth options. These have been praised quite a bit in the 'effects' section on this site and talkbass. Here's the subdecay online manual for more information, [url="http://subdecay.com/manuals/pm1.pdf"]http://subdecay.com/manuals/pm1.pdf[/url] and the old product page, [url="http://subdecay.com/prometheus-resonant-filter"]http://subdecay.com/...resonant-filter[/url][/s] [u]Chunk Systems Brown Dog[/u] Bought to give some fuzz to the Subdecay but this pedal is also great as a stand alone. The fact it offers earth shattering fuzz and synth sounds but also combines effortlessly with an envelope filter via a dedicated input makes it a really special fuzz. You can find sound samples here: [url="http://www.chunk.com.au/bd.htm"]http://www.chunk.com.au/bd.htm[/url] I'm not sure if he still does but when I bought it Paul Turner (Jamiroquai) was using one. I still have the original box. For bassists the great thing is both these pedals have no problem tracking and still retain the low frequencies of the bass. Bought all the pedals I need so straight sale only at the moment please! Can be collected from London or posted. [attachment=244521:IMG_1091.JPG]

  6. Mrbigstuff
    Jaco only needed 4 strings......

    Yep, having one bass has been great for me. Having said that I've ordered a fretless but that's completely different (is what I tell the girlfriend)

    What do these sound like? Are they clean or are they aggressive?
  9. Mrbigstuff
    What's the story behind them all?

    I have a Subdecay Flying Tomato that has stopped working. Does anyone know of anyone in London who fixes pedals?
  11. Mrbigstuff
    I messaged Dan for a pedal he had advertised and within a couple of hours it was paid for and shipped recorded delivery. It came well wrapped and works perfectly.

    The guys at the gallery did a great job on a fretless thumb bass I had, when the truss rod needed replacing. It was a neck through as well so they had to take the fingerboard off. When I got it back the action was low and it was a much better bass than what I gave them. They also recently dressed the frets on my p bass and the action on that is now a joy. They're not the cheapest and I find their opening times a little restrictive but you always get really good service.

    [quote name='markstuk' timestamp='1473498552' post='3130686'] Sort of implied don't you think? The "agreed a day to collect it" ..? :-) [/quote] Yep this was how I took it. If he wasn't happy with the offer why would he arrange the collection? [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1473498613' post='3130689'] I'd say here is the money, cash, take it or leave it by a certain period. I'd also leave the window open so the guy could come back later... but then he also runs the risk that I might not offer that money forever and I too, might readjust the price. I would prefer him to have said, no thanks, not enough money, rather jerk you around like that. [/quote] Exactly, he didn't seem to grasp I was leaving my weekends open for what would have been a 6 hour round trip, only to be let down repeatedly at the last minute

    I recently made an offer for a fretless Warwick on gumtree and the guy asked when I'd be able to collect it, and we agreed a day. Anyway he couldn't do it anymore and finally after 3 weeks of him coming up with excuses he's told me he's holding out for a better offer. Is this common? It's the first time I've had it and it's so frustrating!
  15. Mrbigstuff
    I can store it until you sell it
  16. Mrbigstuff
    How much can do you play the sei? If not at all and you would play the others then yes. But i can't see a musicman being anywhere near as nice to play as a sei

    Just got to give a shout out to harvest (guys who make the nice leather bass gig bags). I bought a strap for my dad and when I enquired about stock, I had an email response in 5 minutes in perfect English. It then took only 2 days to arrive after ordering. Of course the quality is exquisite and my dads a happy man! It's the best customer service I've had online, especially as it came from abroad. Well done Harvest and basschatters buy with confidence!

    I'm really liking the look of these basses! How much does a 4 string approximately cost?
  19. Mrbigstuff
    Thanks guys, I think you're right about it being a signal path joint. Its working for now, couldn't see any loose connections but if it goes again at least I should be able to tell someone what to look for.
  20. Mrbigstuff
    Weirdly it is now working fine? I know it wasn't hum because it still made noise even when I had contact with the strings which I thought was the standard test. Oh well, I can now enjoy!!! Might be worth shielding the cavities just incase.
  21. Mrbigstuff
    yeah I've sent Sire an email but I'm not expecting a response on a Sunday. I really don't fancy the workload of sending it back to Thomann. I'm sure if its purely a small electric issue Martin or the guys at the Gallery will sort it, and it won't cost too much. My main problem is I bought it as a bass to play when I visit my girlfriends parents in Stoke on Trent, so it would mean waiting until the next time I come up and bringing a gig bag to take it back to London and then once its fixed take it back up, then bring my gig bag back, none of which is going to be easy on busy Virgin trains. Typical as I seem to be the only person who has had any sort of an issue, there was also a bit of hum from it in passive mode but i thought this would be normal as the pickups aren't hum cancelling?
  22. Mrbigstuff
    nope changed both of them, because when I first tried the active circuit was dead but now it just crackles with no sound.
  23. Mrbigstuff
    No it was brand new, it came on the 7th April but this is the first chance I've had to play it. Shame as its a looker and plays beautifully! Couldn't see anything under the control plate. Might require a trip to the gallery!
  24. Mrbigstuff
    bump
  25. Mrbigstuff
    I have one of those new Sire Marcus Miller basses. I plugged it in for the first time this morning and the pre-amp is just making noise. It works fine when in passive mode so it must be something to do with the circuit. I've had a look under the control plate but can't see any obvious loose connections. Has anyone any idea's?
