  1. I was offered one of there by a local guy in trade late last year. All original and in virtually mint condition. But I declined. Didn't djent...

    Which Helix?

    Had a Helix floor but hardly used it to be honest. Bought Helix native at the same time and it got all the use as I was bandless at the time. Just received a Stomp the other day and I'm extremely impressed. Depends greatly on your use case I suppose!
  3. Hx Stomp arrived yesterday. Only had 20 minutes with it so far... I don't remember the last time I was so impressed with something straight out of the box!
  4. I like the look of that head... A LOT... Does it sound as good as it looks?
  5. It isn't really. If it bothers you greatly just add a little DI box. The B3n is quite a bit better than the B3 IMO, and the spectradrive isn't in the same league as either (again, just IMHO)...
  6. Having been through both... B3n and a jack to XLR converter.
  7. There used to be a funny workaround using plugin boutique where you buy one EZkeys expansion on PB, but the serial number covered you for ANY EZKeys expansion, which you selected on registration in the Toontrack product manager. I think the loophole may be be closed now though... It's how I got Cinematic grand (and another of my EZKeys expansions) for a steal shortly after it was released...
  8. PM'd you Jorge
  9. A very sparkly ASAT 5 string if I recall correctly...
  10. I'll hopefully be looking for a big cab (8x10, 6x10, 2x15, 4x12) shortly if the new band gets a permanent rehearsal space. Only intend to be moving it the once!
  11. Lee has a switch installed that he calls his "producer switch", or "does f4ck all" switch. If his tone isn't working for the producer he flicks the switch (making sure he's seen doing it) and just changes his playing position on the bass to change up the tone. Apparently it never fails to please... There's a video on YouTube of him describing it - I think it's on the Warwick page where he's talking about his signature star bass.
  12. This, but instead of the very 80's Hohner battery LED you could fit a Lee Sklar approved DFA switch!
  13. 36 month 0% at PMT... Sorely tempted to kill rock'n'roll with a nice HX Stomp/QSC K12.2 FRFR rig...
  14. Err... Merchant City Music have the Helix Floor up on their website for £760... It MUST be a misprint at that price!!! EDIT: As you were... Up to £1144 now...
  15. So many awesome basses around at the minute...
  16. SO.MUCH.WANT.
  17. I also use a Focusrite iTrack (but the "pocket" version) with my iPad and previously with an iPhone 6. Works great with the Bias Amp/Fx/JamUp apps and Garageband. Cheap as chips too... but totally relies on your device having a headphone output.
  18. Interesting... I wonder what would happen if you tried stacking 2 iterations of the pre with different curves/cutoff frequencies? I'll have to try that...
  19. Can you stack 2 of the AC pre blocks to get 24dB/octave?
  20. Don't look now, but it's the mini qtron, not the micro qtron, and is much more desireable...
  21. Wish I could afford this right now. The RBV is one of my biggest selling regrets...
  22. A PSA in pedal form...
  23. I've been very tempted by the SR 1206 VNF on ebay at the minute. But then I realise I didn't really get on with the last 6 I owned, and this one would likely suit me even less as I'm a 19mm string spacing sort (18mm at a push!) so 16.5mm is just too tight... But it doesn't stop me wanting it!
  24. Stunning! I almost wish I was of suitable dimensions to carry off a short scale...
  25. "Get here" by Oleta Adams. Pino at his awesome best.
