I imagine copying a schamatic without knowing what it's doing?
-
Talking of your trigger warning-The metering is apparently on the inside of the pcb!
-
While this is correct - the OP is about secondhand basses
-
So 25% item cost is a good yardstick I imagine that years of being in EU means we instinctively look for secondhand gear there, when importing from the US might be more cost effective now
-
In answer to the op - I think it’s ((( cost of guitar + cost of shipping ) x 20% VAT ) x 2% duty ) + any courier fees for handling the item [royal mail is £8]
-
I’ve been thinking the same -
I had no idea you could buy a bass guitar in 1936!

Taking the guitar from an artisan made craft product into a mass manufactured commodity was a massive change. -

soul food ... I think that's horse based... we tend not to eat horse

that's been on Basschat years back

That was quick! -
Basschat? You also need to leave someone with a deposit that’s the value of the bass …. kinda

I doubt anyone cares, missing parts ordered, avoided buying another PCB for either the 1590bb or 1590a enclosures I have floating around... I did however spend a lot of the last couple of evenings with the laptop on KiCad, remembering what Gerbers are moving traces around and hopefully coming up with a PCB that will work this time. About last time I laid up my first and... it didn't work (partly the circuit, partly the PCB, partly me not knowing what I was doing) so I had another go - hopefully it will work! I find it crazy that for the price of a pint at the brewery down the hill I can get 10 PCB made up and posted to me. In the mean time Disssa will have knocked out about half a dozen beautiful pedals.

If you looks around the forums some of the best analogue chorus for for bass seem to be... EHX small clone Walrus Julia MXR bass chorus Tech21 bass boost chorus Providence Anadime bass chorus. Cheaper options like valet on aqua flow, or various analogue chorus from nux, joyo etc The first is easy to find, the next two less so. There's an anadime for sale here... If I was looking for a chorus right now that's what I would get, heck I'm tempted to get it and compare it to my bass boost chorus and see what I like the best. I've only just noticed you're not in the UK so this link is slightly less useful... In the digital realm you've got things like TC electronics corona chorus - which might do toneprints - or depending on your set up the zoom ms-70cdr could do chorus and everything else if you wanted it too...

Musikding are out of 2n5457 Anyone got one kicking around before I get on eBay?
-
From DIY building pedals... a pedal has a LED and then a resistor to control the brightness - if you make it too bright the LED can easily use way way more power than the audio circuit. I would remove them first as part of your problem solving and working out the power consumption.
-
is the green light also running off the power supply? How power hungry is that?
-
Trying not to buy a new bass, but is this too much modding?
LukeFRC replied to DDR's topic in Repairs and Technical
If the choice is between spending money on modding vs spending the same money on a different instrument It’s not giving in to GAS- it’s long term saving money -
I’ve seen gut shots of the bassbone v2 is that the one you’ve got? it’s through hole parts so fixable
-
I guess a cost of living crisis also helps keep GAS under control!

Are they Radial’s service engineers? Maybe see if radial have someone they recomend- mainly because they will be able to get the schematic and or service manual
