Evenin', So it looks like I've bagged myself an Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe and understandably I'm very excited to have a play with it when it comes in the post. Clearly, the way to get the most out of it is to use it in conjucntion with an expression pedal. The Moog EP-2 seems to be the weapon of choice! Any got any tips for where I can best pick one up? They don't come up very often in the classifieds on here unfortunately. Absolute Music looks the cheapest at £40.99 delivered ([url="http://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/store/index.php/moomgmfep2/p_2926.html?utm_nooverride=1/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=Google%2BShopping"]http://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/store/index.php/moomgmfep2/p_2926.html?utm_nooverride=1/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=Google%2BShopping[/url]). Anyone know of anywhere cheaper? Or alternatively can any of you effects denzions be tempted into selling me one on the cheap . Cheers, Rich

Just read through all this, best of luck finding a bass. I'm sure I'll have a go at something like this myself at some point, sounds like good fun.

2 M9s live, what is this madness?!

I keep coming back to this stuff, very impressive. More than anything though, I'm so surprised that you can get such a good live sound out of the M9, especially on the gain, filter and octave sides of it.

Shouldn't see why that would be a problem, every scene can be configured to have whatever you want. So create the patch which you like, save it and then set it up again with the same settings but the parameter in question changed as a seperate scene.

I want to say yes and be almost romantic about it, but hell no...not one bit. It was a terribly set up Stagg BC-300 in a godawful matt-black finish. I passed it on for about £80 and I almost felt bad taking so much for it. Funnily enough, the one I'm wrestling with inside is my second Bass, an Epiphone Thunderbird, which I've played on and off for about 5 years now, still in near mint condition, despite being gigged and travelled with a lot. I want to shift it to put some money towards a nice fretless, but it's nice to have a cheaper 4 string with me at uni, and despite all its' shortcomings I've become very attached to it. Seeing them go on the forum for around £150 makes me tempted though, I just don't want to be in the lurch without a Bass while I find its' replacement.

Not my bag, but I get why some like them.

Wow you really got that one on Gumtree for a steal of a price.

I use a set of the Fender Roundwound strings, with TW E and B strings. Great sound and a good price.

I've got to say, the Zoom B3 is sounding more and more tempting by the day...

Oh wow that was unexpected. I now feel more hungover...

I really want myself an Analogman Mini Chorus with Deep mod and blend. I keep missing out on them when they come up for sale!

Quick search shows that the OneSpot has around 1700 [i]mA [/i]of power on tap at 9V DC. Add up all the power requirements of each pedal and if their sum total is under that figure, you should be fine. The Octavius has a draw of 155 mA, which isn't rediculous, unlike say the double Boss pedals which are around 300mA on their own!

Looks fantastic, I was dubious as to how the pink would fare, considering I <3 Olympic White, but you've really pulled it off.

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' timestamp='1328220133' post='1524123'] Might change the MuTron for something smaller and lighter - GR2 maybe? [/quote] Proton!

Looks like a nice cheap (and space concious) way to enjoy the sound of a tonebender. I for one am excite.

Great idea, but I really don't think they had to go there. I mean it'll be wonderful for pedaltrain mini and nano users but aside from that I can't see anyone complaining about the size of the regular Polytune.

Oh god that nearly happened to my pride and joy over Christmas. I almost had to ask myself the ultimate question: What/Who do I love more - my bass or my girlfriend?!

Perhaps it's worth shooting sfx an email about a custom build? There's lots of his custom work about on BC and it seems well priced and good quality.

WORLD'S LARGEST TUNER IS LARGE. What is the switch like on it?

Or you could just modify the bassline to play in standard tuning? If you really need that low C thump, you could use an octave pedal and play the line one octave higher on your fretboard. I know that you would get a completely different feel by not hitting the open strings, but it would require no alterations to your bass.
