  1. Also, I've never tried it, but EHX do an "Analogizer" Pedal which I guess introduces certain filters to eliminate the unwanted square-wave distortion digital pedals can add. http://www.ehx.com/products/analogizer
  2. Hi I have a Frantabit and love the Bit Depth fuzz sounds too. There are many ways you can try to decrease the high end. 1) buy a Xerograph or another Low Pass Filter, 2) run a sub octave into the Frantabit with the dry signal turned down 3) running the Frantabit into my DHA valve overdrive tames it a lot so it sounds more like a grainy fuzz or a broken radio The one disadvantage I find with the Frantabit is unless you have a high output signal or a boost pedal or a compressor/sustainer infront of the frantabit the Fuzz sustain decays quite fast if your planning on drawing out the note. You most likely already know this. Have you tried the Oxide? Apart from the "fwapping" attack noise some people are not keen on, the Oxide can come pretty close the Frantabit unless you really like the extreme Bit Depth crushing noise all the anti-clockwise. My recommendation then, try finding a cheap second hand DHA VT1 pedal to try out?
  3. Going on Holiday between 23rd and 27th this month so wont be able to sort anything between then
  4. Ive just bought an EHX Clone Theory second hand from BassChat. In very good condition. Trouble is im having trouble fitting everything on my pedal board. Hoping for a straight swap with a Neo Clone (not Nano) if anyone is interested.
  5. Yeah GAK was were I got my Vintage White BB414 for £200, mind you it was a while ago now
  6. Sean bought my Big Al bass off me with the swiftest of payments and flawless communication. Pleasure dealing with ya!
  7. I remember the days when the BB414 cost £200 brand new. Like my one did.
  8. I can understand people paying hundreds for an original pickup but why bother paying hundreds for an bit of battered wood? do people still think the wood changes the tone that much???
  9. Thank you everyone for your interest, I am afraid a sale is now pending.
  10. A year ago when I bought this bass new I was blown away with all the sounds and thought I would never need another bass. As always, needs change and I have come to the conclusion that less is more. Well in my case, I use so many different effects and switch between synths I need a simple bass! This is a year old Musicman Big Al 4-string bass in White/White/maple. It has been gigged weekly but well looked after. In very good condition apart from a couple of scuffs to the top of the headstock and 2 tiny marks (the size of a pin head) on the back of the neck. Currently strung with DR Sunbeams 40-100 (3 weeks old). [url="http://s77.photobucket.com/user/EcoMatt/media/992799_10151704638373570_1566337247_n.jpg.html"][/url] Detailed pictures to follow shortly. As I have my eye on another bass already I am putting it up for sale at £1000 in a bid to sell this quickly before the one I am after sells. After that I will raise the price to £1200. Ask away any questions regarding the bass.
  11. The youtube demos do make this pedal sound immensely fantastic. If I hadn't just bought a DHA VT1 I would of seriously considered this... GLWTS!
  12. no need to be sorry I already have one imported a 2nd hand one from USA via talkbass for the same price.
  13. ha new record? Xerograph possibly sells in 18 minutes?
  14. Ah man timing! I just bought a new VT1-EQ-DI-STD in the new blue design. Love Dave's work, I used to have a VT2 which does the heavily distorted thing your after as if it were Jack Bruce's old Marshall back in the 60's. GLWTS!
  15. Ok many thanks everyone, I will wait until the end of the day and then do as suggested.
  16. They seem to have a fine trading record here. Just a bit odd they made a offer and haven't checked it for 3 days.
  17. Hi there, Someone made a successful offer but hasn't replied back for 3 days now. How long am I suppose to leave it until I move to the next offer? Cheers.

    gone

    Might be worth asking Alan what pickups he installed, or recording some sound examples to help people get an idea of the pickups.

    SOLD

    Fantastic pedal at a great price! this review sold it to me: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/threads/tracking-with-that-aguilar-tlc-compressor.627547/"]http://www.talkbass.com/threads/tracking-with-that-aguilar-tlc-compressor.627547/[/url]
  20. *****SOLD***** custom finished Iron Ether Subterranea. Taylor hasn't taken any orders for 5 months now. I got this in December before he stopped production therefore no noise bleed issue. Moving this on as I got so into synthesis I bought a Novation Bass Station II. [url="http://s77.photobucket.com/user/EcoMatt/media/SubT.jpg.html"][/url] Mint condition, never gigged. £170 (includes P&P in the UK). Only trade I'd be interested in at the moment would be a "DHA VT1 EQ BASS DRIVE" in black or unfinished metal. Just missed one today on ebay for £90
  21. Any one fancy swapping a black Big Al SSS Scratch plate for my white one? (I Just made up a trade price for the post)
  22. bump yes still for sale, send me a Pm if interested thankyou

    True Low Pass filter

    Of course a modded EHX microsynth is another one I can think of but they are like hens teeth.
