     ...101914 could be a date** in US format:  10/19/14 = Oct 19 2014  (The date the PCB designer was messing about with the silkscreen layout?)

     

    I seem to remember that people producing the Masters for pressing Vinyls used to 'sign' them with their Tag/Date

     

    (**They've been very specific in using 17 biits to encode something - it doesn't conform to the pattern: 8, 16, 32 bits of data bus width; 17 is a prime no., so it's not a stream of equal-width encoded characters or symbols, eg ASCII, Unicode, etc., so either its just random gobbledegook ...or, 17 bits was the minimum no. bits needed to contain the value of the number: 101914)

     

     

    Seems most likely explanation to me.  I think the BSF was released in 2015 IIRC, so that might well be when the PCB was designed.

  2. Do not eat this Bass soul food.

     

    BTW, the binary has no ASCII value an Unicode is the French C with the squiggle underneath. The dec is 101914. 
     

    whether that adds more information to the warning I don’t know.

     

    I have to find out so I can eat whatever it’s advising me not to.

  3. I had the pleasure to be the first person on BC to deal with Paddy.  Bought a Panda Audio Future Impact synth pedal and the transaction went flawlessly.

     

    Deal with confidence.

    These pedals are amazing. There is a learning curve though which some people can't move past but we'll worth the effort. GLWTS.


    Luckily, the presets are decent and the app easily lets you put uploaded (and rated!) patches on the pedal for easy recall.

     

    want the Bruno Mars 24k magic sound? There are about 3 versions, you don’t even need to tweak any parameters.

  5. Really a superb synth and about as good as you can currently buy in a stomp box format. 
     

    6 presets available using switches in the unit itself. Download the desktop or mobile app to tweak them or download community created patches.

     

    Incredibly easy to use but about as tweakable as you’d ever want. Tracking is very good too.

     

    This is in “as new” condition, as far as I can see. Not a single mark on the pedal itself, all accessories present and still in their sealed bags (including rubber feet).

     

    £195 gets it delivered to your UK mainland address.

  6. Recently bought off basschat but not gelling with it for some reason.

     

    Suitable for both guitar and bass, this is an immensely rich analogue synth pedal.

     

    99 presets available or hook it up to your computer with the included midi to USB cable and either create your own patches or download community created ones.

     

    Velcro on Bottom, no rubber feet. Has tiny chips on either side’s edges, as seen in pictures.

     

    £185 delivered to mainland UK. 
     

    Only trade would be for another synth pedal, try me.

  7. Pointless Faux leather case with culturally insensitive depiction of Native American. 
     

    inside is a delightful selection of just over 20 plectrums of varying thicknesses.

     

    Unwanted gift. I know; hard to believe right? Yours for the price of large letter postage, about £3 IIRC.

  8. In case anyone still follows this…

     

    4 years on and still my gigging rig. Have replaced the amp with a GK MB 800, using the rack tray shown on a previous page.

     

    I sold my extension cab cos I never used it, this will handle the vast majority of gigs on its own even some outdoor gigs without going through the PA. I also usually have the bass part of the EQ turned down. I barely ever get the amp’s volume above 9-10 O’clock position. Especially as we all use in-ears now so can always hear myself without having to turn up and therefore start or participate in a ‘volume war’.

     

    it is still not the lightest at about 24kg total but the castors go a long way to help. I’d get bigger castors but the probably would fit in my car any more.

     

    If I were to replace it with anything, it would probably be a GK 1x15 or 12 combo but it would have to be substantially lighter. But I think we’d go completely ampless by that point. We’ve done that many times already on small gigs.

  9. Recently bought this off of eBay. It had been taken off a new bass to be replaced with a fretless neck. Still has the plastic film on the Tuning heads. I bought it but I haven’t done anything with it so offered at the same price I bought it for.

     

    No marks or chips, anywhere other than at the heel where I’ve pointed this out. One slight issue is a little bit of thread left in the tuning peg, probably from the swing tag. does not affect turning at all.

  10. If the battery is till OK, I'll take this. I just need a web browser to control my monitor mix.  We've got one of those fancy mixers that let each of us in the band do that. 

     

    EDIT: Just seen that PaulThePlug has offered to take it, so will naturally get to the back of the queue.

     

    About a decade ago, I had to  finally gave up on Linux advocate / evangelist.  I just lost my faith that it would ever be desktop ready.  One guy at work still holds the faith, good for him.

    Possibly install a linux distro? Though personally I find life is too short for Linux...
