I have Lekato ones and they're absolutely flawless. Do like the look of the Harley Benton one too.

Sorry I missed this! Yes all is stock except for the @KiOgontone pot switch which I just like.

Fair enough, clearly I got lucky - or you didn't

Same

Absolutely not picking a fight but wondering what is wrong with the tuners? I've never had a problem with mine.

I've ended up with the Fender Downtown Express. Which I've used for a straight to pa rehearsal and it performed admirably. The OD isn't quite to my taste but all else is ace

Looks the dog's doesn't it? I have to say an FX loop should be standard. On any preamp pedal.

Paging @scrumpymike

I am much more concerned the organisers may be out of pocket. Happy to contribute to a whip round if this is the case

Oooh, looking forward to your review

Mike and his family work so hard to bring this event to fruition. Without them I would spend another day typing conversations with distant strangers here on Basschat. Instead I got to meet some of those people in real three dimensional life. I got to geek out about pedals with people who care about them like I do. I got to share stories, to sit and eat wonderful food with folk who felt like old friends within minutes of striking up a conversation. I got to try instruments I'd never seen or heard of, to show off a couple of mine and to compare the dimensions of two tiny amps with men who care as much as I do about such things. This didn't happen by magic. It happened through hard work, an awful lot of time and dedication from @scrumpymike and his family. You made my day, and I am truly grateful.

What a man. Thank you Mike.

I love my Boss Synth. I have come to realise that the ball ache of using a computer to alter a sound is a huge stumbling block for me Also the individual context of a band or room always calls for changing on the fly. If this is an SY1 but with saveable, easily changeable presets, then I'm in. £280 new. Hmm.
