…and Quasar is gone. X Ultra also on hold. Rest still available. -
Finally taking the plunge and completing my transformation into a true modern bassist cliché and going all digital going forward, so the pedalboard needs to go. I’m not going to go into detail about what each pedal can do as if you’re considering it you’ll know, but if you do need further info then just ask All come with original boxes unless stated and have dual lock/Velcro underneath. All pedals used with the ES-5 so have hardly been stepped on. Super high quality bits of kit. Add a couple of quid towards postage if you would, or collection from leamington spa. Darkglass ADAM (Aggressively Advanced Distorting Machine) - £on hold (£499 new) In excellent condition with little wear, just a cosmetic mark here and there. Less than a year old and never gigged, in original box. Darkglass X Ultra - £ON HOLD (£405 new) In excellent condition with little wear, just a cosmetic mark here and there. Couple of years old, always lived on the pedalboard in a case, no issues. Comes with box. Darkglass Alpha Omicron - £SOLD (£209 new) In mint condition, only owned for a few months so very little use. Comes with box. Boss DM-2W - £SOLD (£155 new) In great condition, owned for a few months and very little use. Small scratch on the back corner pictured. Comes with box. SubDecay Quasar DLX Deluxe 8 Stage Analog Phaser - £SOLD Bought this used on the forum earlier this year, in great condition and perfect working order, just a few scratches here and there. No original box for this one. Boss ES-5 Switching System - £SOLD (£409 new) In very good condition, few tiny nicks here and there. Comes with box. Boss TU-3 - £SOLD (£75 new) In great condition, three tiny chips on the top and label missing underneath but everything else perfect. Comes with box. Focusrite 2i2 3rd Generation Interface - £ON HOLD (£128 new) In very good condition, think there is a small scratch under velcro at the bottom, plastic films still in place. Comes with box. Brand New/Sealed Rockboard PatchWorks Solderless Set - £SOLD (£59 new) Brand new/unused solderless patch cable kit, bought with a plan to rewire board that never happened so literally as new.

Thank you!

Thanks buddy!

£2k? Wow, that is a hell of a lot of bass for that money! 2013 was the start of Warwick REALLY upping their game, the instruments built in the last 8 years or so are of phenomenal quality. -
Why would there be an additional charge for such transactions? Is there already for UK - US transactions, for example, and has that changed recently?
-
Even after import costs? Assumed with the handling fee it would hit £100, but yeah in that case it is mighty cheap....if its any good. Certainly right in saying it wont effect Darkglass sales. Be interested to hear an AB, but also a comparison in quality of the build/switches/pots.
-
Don't think I'd ever pay more than £40 odd for a knockoff like this. At £100 or whatever the landed price would end up being, thats 2nd hand B3K money for something that could be utter utter rubbish.

It’s interesting how many struggle with the ADAM. It take a long time to figure out how to get the most from it, hated the distortions at first. But now I have it’s the most important pedal on my board. Do wonder how much being told it’s digital influences subconscious opinion on it, I can’t hear it sounds digital at all, but it’s too high gain as standard even with the update. But I agree, the vintage is definitely on its own in the Darkglass range for those warm tones.
-
How about I cause some more confusion for you…consider the Darkglass ADAM 😉
-
Wouldn't the Ultra just give you everything, rather than needing a separate IR loader pedal and tone shaper?
-
Would love that argument with a soundguy! My word, I'd go full diva. If all venues are likely to have PA support and you use IEMs (or are happy to rely on stage monitors; again depends on the venues!) then the Vintage Ultra would suit you just fine. Sure it doesn't have compression, but dirt adds enough compression on its own, and if you find the clean lacking you can always grab a comp too? Still not a pedalboard. If you don't use IEMs and/or there is a good chance a venue won't have PA support, if you can afford it go for the amp. Don't worry about reliability too much, sure its a vocal minority and darkglass customer services is honestly second to none, they usually ship out a replacement before they even receive the faulty one back, next day UPS.

Experiment with different 4 string gauges, basically! Standard super heavy sets with a 115 may be fine for you, I use a .120 for drop B but I prefer lighter strings. Its all personal preference really.

One more sub and we hit 100! If someone could oblige 😂✌🏻
-
And its now released! Would love to know what you guys think

mmmm. Darkglass as a company certainly ended my search for bass overdrive/distortion, however I can't help but buy every new circuit they release... Otherwise, I rarely get stopped in my tracks, GAS forever haunting.
-
Have to admit, the passive natural full scale with black hardware is a classy looking bass.
-
The Adam, along with the Boss ES-5 and midi, is the heart of my pedalboard now. I use all 6 presets for different basses, different EQs for certain pedals, different distortion modes etc. My only issue at the moment is the noise gate. Being last in line with no key input, I’m finding it needs to be at different levels for clean and distorted to be tight, and at present it’s only a global plugin. Hopefully it will be updated to be assignable per preset on the next update, as its hard to use as it is.
-
Tons of instruments for sale at the moment buddy, hope all is well? Lovely bass. -
Lovely Rockbass, they're so much better than they used to be now, fantastic value for money. GLWTS -
Absolutely love the Alpha Omicron, best/most complete small form Darkglass pedal.
