    Yeah I'm looking forward to the "post-fettled" version!

    Actually, if I had the cash I'd have it anyway as a modding platform. Always wondered what a Vigier P bass would be like... The ultimate P!

    Bargain. Best basses I've ever owned. My Excess 5 string blows me away every time I play it. I'd have had this if I didn't already have a Roger Glover signature...

    New low for a courier yesterday. Thomann order was left at the end of our shared laneway in the snow. 200m from our house.

    Well done DHL...

      Your cat sign for it or summit? :D

    Wish I hadn't already spent a clean fortune this year... I'd be all over this one!

    I believe you can load whatever IRs you want using the Darkglass Suite. I never needed to for my purposes. EDIT: Website confirms that 3rd party IRs can be loaded onto the Element using the desktop version of the Darkglass Suite

    I'd second the Element suggestion. A brilliant bit of kit.

    Beautiful!

    Brilliant wee Swiss Army Knife of a pedal. GLWTS!

    Just received an HX Stomp XL from S'manth who responded to my wanted ad. Smooth throughout and I'm very pleased. Sort of deal that makes basschat what it is!

    Currently planning out an ampless setup. Stomp XL on its way. Currently thinking "Bass > HX Stomp XL (with Tech21 dUg in loop 1, Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon in loop 2 with presets MIDI controlled) > PA/IEM (and possibly an amp running a homemade shaker platform)". I may go "Bass > HX Stomp XL (with Tech21 dUg in loop 1, DIY TS-50 preamp in loop 2) > Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon (with presets MIDI controlled) > PA/IEM/etc." depending how the TS-50 and MIDI control of the Darkglass turns out. I've too many amps knocking around so there may be a cull there and just replace the lot with something FRFR, probably QSC. For personal practice I'm just using a single studio monitor at the minute and it sounds excellent.

    Certainly looks like the best balance of cost v function for what I'm looking for... Sizeable piece of hardware though!

    I've been using a Mooer L6 for loop switching for a few months and it's a great bit of kit, but I've recently got my hands on a Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon and would like to start switching presets on it along with other pedals so I'm looking for suggestions for a pedal switcher with MIDI capability. Only used a max of 4 loops so far so not looking anything massive. I'm already aware of the Boss ES-5, but I'm not looking to spend 400 quid, thank you very much!

    Since Dan Lakin has been co-designing their recent offerings surely they could come up with something a bit better than this?

    £1.8k. Never popped that limit and don't intend to unless I found "the one"...
  16. Bigwan
    Comes down to one thing. Cost.
  17. Bigwan
    No mention of scale on that ad...

    Mustang sounding great!

    I built a clone of the Fat General (Pedalpcb General Tso) and it knocked a Cali76 CB off my board - like you I prefer something simple, set and forget, as far as compressors go. The CB is an AWESOME pedal, but the Tso could get the sound and, more importantly, the response I was looking for from a compressor with fewer controls, and allow me to free up a fair wedge of dough for other pedal projects.
  20. Bigwan
    Your description of your ideal compressor describes the ThorpyFX Fat General to a T... Just to muddy the waters a bit Ander!
  21. Bigwan
    With all the short scale love going around I'd love to see a U7/U9/U10 version with roasted neck, etc.
  22. Bigwan
    That's stunning!

    I think it really depends on condition and originality. You could try giving Andy Baxter a call for advice - his website advertises that he offers free appraisals.

    An iPad/laptop running a synth plugin and a second hand behringer FCB1010 that you can program to act like a keyboard would be the cheapest option I can think of... and learn how to tap dance! I don't think you'd get very close with the pedals you're looking at to be honest. You'd have to play the keyboard parts instead of the bassline for a start...
