Kev Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) iv decided that in my major cutdown of effects gear that this is the latest pedal to get the chop. It is a fantastic unit, which creates lovely valve tones and crunch and with the 3 band eq with mid Q control its very versitle read my full review of it here, as well as a picture: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21764"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21764[/url] basically selling as i think im moving more towards solid state sounds again (i used this as an always on preamp rather than an effect), and i don't use it for the high gain sounds it can produce. At the moment it is loaded with the Mullard 12ax7 tube in good condition, plenty of life left in it, im sure you all know about this probably being the best 12ax7 ever made, and can only be bought on ebay for £20+. il also include with the sale the orignal electro harmonix 12ax7 that came standard with the pedal. I think dave sells these £145 new, so my price will be [s]£120 shipped[/s] Now £110 shipped including BOTH valves. if you dont want the mullard (for whatever crazy reason ) and are happy with just the electro harmonix tube, i will sell for [s]£110 shipped[/s] now £100 shipped very much interested in trades, something synthy or a high end fuzz i would be interested in, certainly nothing subtle let me know Edited August 14, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassy Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've got a prunes, but it's a keeper. Great pedal for recording with, but gets a bit too fizzy live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassBalls Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hey Kev, how different is the sound with the Mullard 12ax7 tube? Does your sound break up easier? Is it a higher gain sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) i talked about it in the review its a lower gain sound than the EH, sounds far better than the eh imo, bottom end is very well defined, and its not as sparkly as the eh is, which is definatly a plus from me. the valve just has more character and every note rings crystal clear basically the best way i can describe the difference is that the EH just sounds 'cheap' next to the mullard. turning up the gain it goes into a valve distortion quite nicely, thats how im currently using it now, but i dont really need that sound, hence the sale Edited August 13, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MananaMan Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Er.... Not to sound funny or owt, but you're selling this for £120 second hand. In your review you say you bought it for £120... Not to say I'm not interested tho, cause I am... dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) the mullard valve supplied with it cost me £23 on top of that, which means i spent £143 for it, and the pedal is in the same condition as it was when it left dave hall, mint. considering that im selling for £25 less than dave hall does new, without a 3 week waiting time, and the best ax7 preamp valve you can buy, id say it was a great price please pm me with any more price queries next time Edited August 13, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 bump, had some interest but nothing solid yet price drop to £110 shipped including both valves and the power supply, or £100 without the Mullard, i will NOT go any lower than this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
