I have struggled to sell anything on FB/Gumtree etc, but via comm sale at BassDirect, everything has gone in a couple of weeks at a price I wanted (more than FB !)

Unfortunately I'm in Ireland and there isn't really Bass specialists in Ireland like Bass Direct. There are equivalents to Gumtree but I find I end up dealing with tire kickers that basically want stuff for free.

No doubt it looks different. Not sure on the usability of the sounds, for me at least.

I’ll never get one as it’s very expensive and you are right about it’s potential useable sounds being limited to none, judging by the demos so far.

I'm finding that adding items to a wishlist is providing me with an automatic "cooling-off" period. I look at the list a month or two later and the moment of GAS has definitely gone for several items. 

 

that's a good idea generally - It stops the impulse and somehow writing it down helps think it through properly too.

I'm waiting to buy mine used off Bassfan, so I should be safe for a while too. 

 

It all started with an FI...

you’ll be in for a long wait … we’ll be in the 2030’s thread I reckon

 

They might have sorted out the chip production back log by then, with a bit of luck.

The new FI Mk 4 with a decent visual UI will be out.

And you'll be going through your George Clooney phase...

And this recently released on bass. I've skipped to 7.28 so you can hear how it sounds:

 

 

I don't remember being more disappointed with the sound of a pedal.  Its aesthetically marvollous, but sonically plebeian.

I thought you said pretty much the same thing about several Darkglass pedals recently?

 

No wait! I'm getting you confused with everyone else 😁

Just checked, and I didn't even allude to how expensive and overpriced it may be 🙃
