I'm out. It was a humble pedal wot done it - an EHX Big Muff if you must know - bought off a fellow Basschatter. I'm ashamed of myself for being so weak but a small part of me is gloating - such a great pedal for such little outlay....these things just work so well with bass. I can now relax, buy some more gear and try again next year.

I bought a EHX Big Muff pedal from Mark and as he is local to me, we agreed to a face-to-face collection. Communication throughout was perfect with responses to messages being received almost instantly. Great pedal in good condition and a pleasant exchange. I would deal with him again without hesitation. Highly recommended. Thanks again Mark - it was good to meet you.

Well, close call today. Contacted a seller on here about a pedal that went up for sale but I was pipped at the post by another purchaser. Phew - still in!

Looks great in Olympic White but I would consider changing the black plate for tort 👍

Still in - why do I read this thread then go straight to the basses for sale section???

Yep - I’ll have another go this year. 2nd time lucky! Already got more than I need so should be easy.

Fixed 😁

Active bass? If so, is the battery on its way out?

This is the second time I’ve posted on this page. The first was back in 2020 where I purchased what has become my ‘go-to’ bass (Sadowsky Metro Will Lee) and now I have just received a Shiftline Olympic mk111 valve pre. The Sadowsky sounded ace before but now it sounds ace with bells on. Once again, quick delivery, well packaged, great communication. This could become a habit!

Just bought a Levys strap from Lawrie - excellent transaction with good, timely communication. The strap is in great condition. All good and highly recommended. Thanks Lawrie.

For years I used the green Tortex picks (0.88mm) which sound great and suit some of the more upfront and aggressive stuff I play - then a mate gave me one of these to try suggesting they get about as close to a finger style tone as it’s possible to get with a pick. Took a bit of getting used to but yep, the tone is definitely there. Horses for courses, I use both for different styles of playing, as well as fingers of course.

Just bought a Cali 76 compact bass compressor from Chris. Great communication throughout. The packaging was bombproof and the pedal is in excellent condition. No issues and I wouldn’t hesitate in dealing with him again. Highly recommend. Cheers Chris.

Nothing to add that hasn't already been said. A hugely enjoyable afternoon where I met some great people and enjoyed listening to some great music. The afternoon went without a single hitch. Everyone turned up at the right time, brought the gear they said they would bring and there were no equipment failures Even the beer was to top quality. This is what happens when bassists organise things!
