Geester Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) This is a great tube compressor either for live or studio applications. It's about six months old and I still have the original box and packaging including the bubble wrap..! [url="http://www.ehx.com/ehx2/Default.asp?q=f&f=%2FCatalog%2F02%5FHome%5FStudio%5FPerformance%5FProducts%2F04%5FBlack%5FFinger"]http://www.ehx.com/ehx2/Default.asp?q=f&am...FBlack%5FFinger[/url] Bit of a long link I know but it's worth taking a look to get all the details, it really does do what it says on the tin. I'm looking for £80 plus postage, it is in 'as new' condition and you won't be disappointed. Paypal is fine and if you want to come and pick it up even better. I'm based near Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire (PE28 3YX for multimap purposes). Cheers and thanks for looking Edited January 14, 2008 by Geester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Dave[/quote] I can answer 1) for you; It makes my Stingray 5 sing. Adds really nice tubey warmth too with a turn of the pregain knob. The two light settings for compression; led and lamp; allow for a nice versatility, especially with the "sqsh" function affecting the lamp mode which provides high levels of compression that are still wonderfully musical thanks to the valves. Works really well live too, it's really powerful. You might find some people complaining about the pedal creating noise through tweeters, but if you have a variable tweeter you'll have no problems turning it off. The VLE feature on my mark bass combo sorts this out for me =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geester Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Many thanks to 'theosd' for such a comprehensive answer, couldn't have put it better myself. It is still for sale, I've had a couple of sniffs but nothing firm..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
