  1. That's really helpful - thank you. It sounds complicated, but I'm sure it will make more sense when I have the amp and pedal in front of me! Thanks for all the info. 👍
  2. Thanks - the enthusiasm you and others had for it earlier in this thread certainly made an impression. Quick question - which foot switch did you buy? It looks like there's several options that are compatible (according to the Boss website). I guess all I'd really want is to be able to mute the amp and call up the various (pre-programmed) effects as and when without having to refer to the front panel. Any idea which pedal would offer the simplest way of doing that? Thanks.
  3. Just also spotted this on the Thomann info pages: "Duty We take care of the custom declaration so you will not have to pay any customs fees"
  4. Bought it from the Thomann UK website, which includes VAT in the purchase price. I don't expect there to be import duties if it's from their UK site, but here's hoping I don't have a nasty surprise in that regard.
  5. Had an accident which resulted in cracking the (glass) front panel of my TC RH-750 last week, which inspired me to cast eyes around for a potential suitable replacement if it were not possible to replace/repair it. Repair be damned - just seen that Thomann have reduced the Katana-500 Bass to £499, a price drop which I've found impossible to resist, even though I've presently no band! But, hell, you can't take it with you, can you? 😁
  6. Having owned this for about 5 or 6 years and having done precisely zero recording with it in that time, it's time for it to find a more appreciative owner, I think. I've owned it from new, but no longer have the box or instructions (online link to those here: https://www.tascam.eu/en/docs/US-1x2_RM_vA.pdf). I don't think it came with any leads in the first place, but if it did they too have vanished into the ether. It's phantom powered anyway, so there shouldn't be any issues when its properly connected. I say I didn't record with it, but I actually did use it to experiment (not too energetically) with Garageband and a couple of other free version DAWs, and it worked fine. It's a very simple AI and may be of interest to someone wanting to dip their toes into some home recording. Price includes delivery within the UK. Thanks.
  7. Fantastic band. Hugely under rated. Championed by no less an authority than one Mr D. Bowie: "One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace. And that is Fanny." Check out their performance of 'Ain't That Peculiar' from the same Beat Club session. Superb playing and musicianship, and harmonies to die for:
  8. I don't have a Sei but I do have 5 Zoots which you are more than welcome to try. These include two Wal-a-likes (a passive and an active 'full Wal' with the Lusithand filter pre), a ZB1000 (based on an Aria SB 1000), a fretless and a passive. I'm in Chester. PM me if you'd like to pop over.
  9. Should have put my hand in my pocket last Saturday! 😁
  10. Yep, the stock was impressive, the prices less so - apart from the mispriced Wal, anyway!
  11. I thought it had some incredible stock - g**tars especially. The owner's Dad told us they'd shifted a '55 Precision a short while before, and sent an Ibanez double-neck guitar out to the states a couple of weeks back too. I was with a guitarist mate when I went in, saw the Wal and said 'let's guess how much' to him. I said about £6k and he had no idea, so you can guess how surprised I was when I was told £3k. I suspect, more and more, that he simply quoted me an incorrect price. If I'd said there and then 'I'll have it', I'd imagine a call to his son to double check would have ended up with it being corrected. Still, who knows?
  12. Hmmm, maybe the guy in the shop on Saturday got the price wrong too then.
  13. The guy in the shop on Saturday also mentioned that they had a second Wal too, that wasn't on display yet. He thought that one was already priced higher, so I'd guess that'll go out at north of £6k if so!
