  1. Just a few pedals to sell! All are in immaculate/as new condition (rare studio use only) and come with original boxes etc. Postage included in the price, open to sensible offers. Here's a quick list so you can see if you're interested to save you scrolling through all the descriptions below! [size=3][s]Goodrich Volume Pedal L120 [color=#ff0000]£130[/color][/s] [s]Line 6 M13 [color=#ff0000]£200[/color][/s] Preamp SSl Alpha Channel Strip [color=#ff0000]£450[/color] Eventide Powerfactor (big pedal power supply) [color=#ff0000]£175[/color] JHS Pulp and Peel Compressor [color=#ff0000]£130[/color] Divided by 13 Joyride [color=#ff0000]£150[/color] [s]Buzz Electronics 8-way Looper/Switcher [color=#ff0000]£100[/color][/s] [s]Strymon Bluesky Reverb [color=#ff0000]£200[/color][/s] [s]T-Rex Fuel Tank Jnr (compact power supply) [color=#ff0000]£70[/color][/s][/size] JHS Pulp and Peel Compressor £130 [size=3]Most compressors you see are based off of the Ross/MXR design that yield very squashed high end and a lack of upper end clarity and definition. The Pulp n Peel is not. With the PnP you will find that your guitar's natural color and attack stay in place instead of being forced under a hard and un-transparent squash. Another advantage is its low noise floor and super headroom that allows it to be used as a boost in front of or behind your favorite overdrive/distortion or fuzz. The PnP excels in the fields of blues, jazz, funk and classic rock because of its natural transparency and cooperation with single coils as well as humbuckers. The controls are as simple as it gets with compression, volume and a clean blend knob to dial in your original untouched signal. The idea behind our design is that you will never want to turn it off, and if your looking for the perfect "leave-on" compressor that will make your rig sound like a million bucks, then look no further. Once you have experienced what it does to your rig, you will never be the same.[/size] Preamp SSl Alpha Channel Strip £450 [size=3]With the classic combination of a mic preamp, filter, EQ and dynamics, the XLogic Alpha Channel brings SSL's sonic legacy bang up to date in an analogue channel strip designed to provide the perfect front end to your digital audio workstation. With all the features needed to record great vocal or instrument tracks, the Alpha Channel offers a studio class mic pre and processing based on SSL's years of experience in designing the world's leading analogue recording consoles. A huge proportion of the music you know and love was recorded on SSL, renowned for the superior audio qualities you've heard on countless hit records. That elusive sonic ingredient is here in the Alpha Channel.[/size][list] [*][size=3]Professional ultra clean mic preamp with line level & Hi Z instrument input switches[/size] [*][size=3]'Variable Harmonic Drive' circuit; a Time Machine of distortion characteristics[/size] [*][size=3]High Pass Filter with selectable 40Hz, 80Hz or 120Hz cutoff frequency[/size] [*][size=3]Built in professional quality Analogue to Digital conversion - as standard[/size] [*][size=3]Auto sample rate sensing and self adjustment[/size] [*][size=3]Three band SSL parametric EQ with mid freq Q control and dual LF curves[/size] [*][size=3]Intelligent auto compression that maximises recording headroom and avoids DAC clipping[/size] [/list] Eventide Powerfactor £175 [size=3]Large pedal power supply! The PowerFactor from Eventide features 10 outlets configured in 7 isolated sections and 3 powerful DC sections with 400mA each. Temperature monitoring is also featured so you will never burn out when performing. Three 12V outputs and seven 9V outputs with LED monitoring for each.[/size]
  2. Used G&L L2500, can't go wrong.
  3. EBS make some good little combos http://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/EBS-Classic-Session-120-Bass-Combo-Amp/P3L
  4. Sold Andy my EHX Enigma. Great communication, honest guy, paid quicker than a Victor Wooten slap solo. Deal with absolute confidence folks.
  5. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1362351751' post='1998923'] How aout one of these - pure valve goodness. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/200606-for-sale-dave-hall-dha-vt-1-bass-drive/page__pid__1997631#entry1997631"]http://basschat.co.u...31#entry1997631[/url] [/quote] [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1362352535' post='1998940'] Exactly what I was going to suggest. [/quote] Wow, that's the one! Cheers guys
  6. My band are looking to cover some Extreme-esque stuff - going to be a challenge! So I'm after a OD pedal that will give me a nice med-gain crunch akin to that of Pat Badger's lovely bass sounds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7nlOEnuOfQ I've got a Tech 21 Red Ripper, which is perfect for making everything in the room explode in fuzzy goodness, but not so much for classic overdrive. I'd love a VT Bass/Darkglass/similar, but I've only got a £70 budget! Any help would be gratefully received Cheers! Ben
  7. G&L Tribute series? L2000 or M2000? Doesn't get much better for the money!
  8. [quote name='thodrik' timestamp='1361126641' post='1981484'] I remember a really long thread from someone on here that started with 'OMG, I'm totally getting one really soon!', that went through 'they are working on a prototype' and ended with 'I've decided against it'. Until I see a picture of one I'm treating it as a myth. [/quote] That'd be me They put a basic one together but there were some issues to sort out and due to the queue/getting parts/figuring it all out etc it was going to take longer (waited several months, would've had to wait several more) than I could afford to wait as I had to get gigging with something. What an amazing company though, they understood and didn't charge me anything. Even pointed me in the direction of some suitable off-the-shelf amps from other companies. Can't get better service than that. Anywhere.
  9. Bump!
  10. Correct me if I'm wrong but no-one's mentioned Superstition yet? Must. Put it at the end of the set for our last wedding gig and it was groooovy.
  11. Really sorry for your loss! Must be gutting In terms of basses, take a look at G&L maybe? I recently picked up a USA L2500 and it's great The Sandberg Basic is a pretty cool Stingray-esque bass too. But if your heart's set on a Stingray, get a Stingray!
  12. This envelope filter has got to be one of the most versatile out there, and it sounds ace. This thing can accomplish pretty much any envelope filter sound, with a foot-switchable fuzz/distortion, two outputs for dry/wet signal and an expression pedal input to turn it into the world's most versatile wah! However, as much as I love it, I just can't justify it at the moment as there isn't really an application for it in the music I'm playing. I bought it off here a couple off months ago - it's in mint condition but lacking the original box/power supply etc - just the pedal itself. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrmrA0LwEUk[/media] In terms of trades I'm really looking for an EQ/DI or a good overdrive - but I'm open to anything, not necessarily just pedals! Trade value of around £60-80? Cheers!
  13. [quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1360224832' post='1966845'] Ben, are you sure this sums up how you play? To me it sounds like you answered the question: Two albums that you think have great bass playing. I often am wrong though, and understand that. best, bert [/quote] Sorry, I meant as in those are the players I take most of my influence from, so I guess if I were to sound similar to anyone it'd be them as I try to incorporate their approach to bass playing into my own. The two bands I mainly play in are very different in style, one's more moody and one's a bit more rocky Sorry if I've done it wrong! My brain wasn't running at full capacity yesterday
  14. In Rainbows by Radiohead. To me Colin Greenwood's a great bassist who fits in perfectly and holds it together with sometimes only relatively simple lines whilst still being expressive and just sounding good. And for rockier moments Waiting For The Punchline by Extreme. Great sound.
  15. I've just picked up a USA G&L L2500. Hands down best sounding bass I have ever played in my life. The G&L MFD pick-ups are great! I guess they don't really make huge numbers of instruments (compared to other big name manufacturers anyway) and they're not promoted all that well - website is a bit outdated for one. Great stuff though. The Comanche guitar they do is ace too.
  16. Brilliant delay - very versatile with that pristine TC sound. In very good condition - has been used/stepped on over the years so there are of course the usual few little marks etc. Comes with box and manual etc. Cheers!
  17. In: G&L L2500 Sue Ryder P-bass Ampeg PF-500 Barefaced Compact TC Electronic Polytune Tech 21 Red Ripper EHX Enigma: Qballs Out: Warwick Corvette $$ 5-string Sue Ryder P-bass Crate BT220 Plus more audio gear/cables/cases etc etc. I fear I may have GAS.
  18. I got a TC Electronic RH450 soft-case for my Ampeg PF-500 - sounds a bit illogical but it fits perfectly! Visual Sound One-Spot power supply for all three of me pedals (9v at 1700mA!) Some nice Elacin ear plugs for general use An Ultimate guitar/bass/instrument stand Hurrah for big families Oh and tomorrow I'm picking up a G&L L2500 in a Basschat trade! Merry merry Christmas
  19. I started off playing piano for about eight years before anything else, and whilst I really enjoyed playing it solo, just because it sounds pretty, I never really got it in a band context. I always found the rhythm/bass side more interesting, love a good groove me, so bass is just naturally where I feel I 'fit in' as a musician. I still play piano and there are MANY guitars around the house so I can do a bit of that too. Also handy on synths/producing etc. But bass is just where I feel at home and where I feel I can contribute best to music.
