[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1467101894' post='3081124'] To confirm, yep, the spec referred to above does say it is nitro. I don't usually get that excited over another P or J, but the colour, fact it comes with what I'd spec (rosewood/tort), the fact it's modelled after a bass and not just dinged for the fun of it, the pickups, and those stacked knobs....all for under £900??! The normal roadworns are more expensive?! None of this makes sense. I have a feeling this will be a good seller. I also think I may break down and buy a bass after a few years off. [/quote] I know, its crazy. I'm so tempted by one of these its, well, stupid.

[quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1467107277' post='3081179'] I guess they thought some folks would like the idea of TU-3 reliability, but with a smaller footprint and always on. But I concur, I can't see why. [/quote] Absolutely, but surely not at a higher price! Ah well, each to their own, I'm sure they will sell well!

*PRICE DROP* FS: Fuzzrocious Greystache £105

Tis tempting! -
[quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1467094948' post='3081066'] This is meant as an option for there Es-8 and 5 or in the tuner out of volume pedal etc Andy [/quote] But the TU-3 would work in these circumstances, as would all the other through tuners on the market by boss, Korg etc. I don't get what gap this is filling?

[quote name='bakerster135' timestamp='1467025356' post='3080509'] Definitely the Darkglass B3/7K and VMT. Don't think I've seen opinion divided quite as much for any other pedal-maker recently. Seems to be either die-hard fans or total haters, and nothing inbetween...I, for one, am firmly in the latter camp! ;-) [/quote] I wouldn't agree that the B7K and VMTD and the Ultra variants are love or hate pedals, they are just too flexible for anyone to not find anything to like about them. Even with the blend all the way anticlockwise you are left with a very musical clean preamp! I suggest anyone saying the B7K is too harsh or the VMTD to middy has not spent enough time with either of them. The B3K and VMT, yeah perhaps more so The B3K has certainly got a tone you can't get away from without external EQ'ing. For anyone who doesn't check out this section often, I f***ing love it

Its just bizarre. I get people want more space, and usually to meet demand companies like TC, Korg etc have released their mini pedals at the same price. This hasn't even got a switch, and its £20 odd more! I have no idea who would buy this? Due to its odd little format, it doesn't save anywhere near as much space as the other mini offerings do, and they have the advantage of a footswitch and the ability to mute the signal chain. Odd move.

Can someone explain why this is so much more expensive than a Tu-3? http://www.dawsons.co.uk/boss-tu-3s-chromatic-tuner The Waza craft one looks cool, and the true bypass switch is very attractive, but otherwise seems like a lot of money, it's not even built in Japan, rather 'inspected'.

The ODB-3 is a great example. A lot of people just don't know how to get the best from it! With the gain all the way down and the blend to taste, bass boosted and highs cut, you get a great bass overdrive tone, without a trace of harsh buzzyness. I thought it was awful at first, but then I realised how to get the best from it! Another one that springs to mind is the MXR Bass envelope filter: gets a lot of love on here, I couldn't stand the thing. Every setting had this horrible auto wah trail-off sound, the kind you get on cheap digital multieffect pedals. Clearly I am in the minority on this one!

[quote name='jacko' timestamp='1466979897' post='3080258'] As has been pointed out, they're not a 3 piece. Dunno why bands like muse and green day don't just make the sidemen full members of the band - they can't do a gig without them after all. [/quote] The 4th Muse guy has specifically said he doesn't want to be part of the band, nor does he want to have prominent position on stage.

Yup, didn't enjoy it. Compare it to the natural festival competition of Muse, no contest! -

For Sale/Trade: 3Leaf Octabvre Mini - Few weeks old As New
Kev replied to Kev's topic in Effects For Sale
All pm's replied to. Lots of interest but as of right now it is available. -
Ibanez was my first thought, loads of bass for the money. Second hand, as always, is key to get the best you can get at that kind of budget

[quote name='artisan' timestamp='1466889290' post='3079620'] Lots of bands with programmed keyboards ! That's not live Music in my book. [/quote] Schoolboy error if your talking about Muse To be honest, more and more bands are using PCs these days as part of their setup. Its just part of the modern game now, it seems that bands want their live shows to sound more and more like the records.

Up for sale is a recently acquired 3leaf Octabvre mini. Exceptional octave in as-new condition having barely been used since purchase! This is a newly released pedal and is a smaller version of the Tim-Tuned 3Leaf Octabvre. Octave pedal that nails the OC-2 and Mutron Octave Divider tones, with a whole host of cool stuff in-between! Blurb:- [color=#000000][font=open-sans, sans-serif] The Octabvre Mini is a modified and miniaturized version of the Octabvre that was designed for bass player and effects guru Tim Lefebvre. It starts with the popular Tim-tuning mod from the original and takes it further with a reworked tone knob that runs the gamut from classic OC-2-inspired thump to all-out sub fuzz.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=open-sans, sans-serif] The new tone knob blends together two independent tone circuits. With the tone knob fully counterclockwise, the Octabvre Mini is a functional equivalent of the classic Boss OC-2 Octaver. As the tone knob is turned up, a fuzzy square wave version of the octave down circuit is introduced.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=open-sans, sans-serif] [/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=open-sans, sans-serif] Comes boxed of course, price includes shipping to UK.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=open-sans, sans-serif] Trades? Try me [/font][/color]

Grabbed a pedal off this rather splendid bloke. No complaints whatsoever, cheers bud!
-
It's been turned down now, the first song was insanely loud, literally couldn't hear the guitar in he chorus! Love em or hate em, they are tight as a gnats arse.
-
Anyone listening? I never thought I would say this, but the bass needs to be turned down! I can barely hear Matts guitar!

[quote name='bassman7755' timestamp='1466705924' post='3078085'] The only people who get picked on are those jumping into perfectly friendly threads and making inflammatory posts like you. If youve got something constructive to say and BF cabs (good or bad) then bring it, if not then take your negativity and cynicism elsewhere. [/quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Thank you for proving my point [/font][/color] However, if you read my post again, you will see my constructive comment. You have deleted this from your quote, for some reason!

Oh good, another one of these threads! Opinion is split, I know a few who daren't say anything negative due to the way any negativity against these cabs always gets jumped on, and somehow the attackers make it seem BF is being picked on!! I would take them up on their trial. Take it, see if it can truly keep up with a 4x10 in a live environment, crucially in tone and the balance of the output (as opposed to simply volume as this is what I see most of the complaints are about) and if it doesn't, give it back Win win really!

Dingwall After Burner 1, 5 String Fan Fret Bass Guitar.
Kev replied to Andy Holland's topic in Basses For Sale
Lovely looking bass, bargain too!!! Looks like this has an upgraded flamed maple top and is one of the older models with the fancy passive tone switch?? GLWTS Quick question though, why are we calling Gary and not Andy?
