Sean.Robinson Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Hi, ive had this for about a week having bought it from bassmankev, but ive just found out i have a little less in my bank than i thought and must sell this to go towards a part ex on a EBS Fafner. I agree totally with what kev has said about the pedal, it is a brilliant pedal but im rather against the prospect of going into debt. Here is kevs original listing and review (if he doesn't mind me using them) Listing: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=25557&st=0&p=261537&#entry261537"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...mp;#entry261537[/url] Review: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21764"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21764[/url] The pedal is in absolute mint condition. As i have only had it a week and only had a chance to use it once (due to a neighbor on nights) im asking for the same as i paid £110 shipped. This includes both the Mullard and Electro Harmonix Tubes. Edited September 2, 2008 by Sean.Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BassKS Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 what's this guys? where is this great piece of equipment failing you? Just curious as Bassmankev was completely in love with it on one of the reviews and shifted it in less than a month.... Any clips available? Say on a Passive P with drive and just EQ'd....

I cant remember kevs reason for getting rid of the pedal, though i can see why he was in love it, i think its in his listing. The reason im selling is im doing a part ex for a fafner which has a great EQ and a tube drive function. While the drive on the pedal may be superior i cant justify going into debt for it when i could make do with the fafner's drive function. Hope this helps Edited August 22, 2008 by Sean.Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exile252 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I'm really liking the look of this. I could possibly buy this when my paycheck comes through next Friday, just hoping time flies till then hehe. Btw, is it one of a kind as it says prototype? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean.Robinson Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 To be honest i dont know, id make the same assumption as like you say it states it on the front, hopefully kev is paying attention to the thread and if he wouldn't mind will answer it Thanks Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 it was the second one ever built, and the first one in a custom colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exile252 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 So, it is one of a kind? mhm, that just made me take one step further to saying "I'll buy this on Thursday" hehe. Roll on Thursday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 indeed it is. and remember it has mullards in it, which would set you back a fair bit alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exile252 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Oh yeah, was wondering are you able to put any tube in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean.Robinson Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 As long as it is an ECC83 type then yes. It originally had a electro harmonix tube, and now has mullard, though both are included in the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinnyMike Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Can you tell a difference between the mullard and the Electro Harmonix tubes with this pedal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean.Robinson Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 Hi, i havnt compared the two directly so im going to copy kev's reply to the same question if thats ok: 'the mullard is 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinnyMike Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 ooo. Reason im asking is because iv recently aquired one of these beasts. maybe a valve change is in order thanks to tese insightfull words from kev. Cheers for that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
