Okay, maybe my GAS is cured Good ol' Pete looks ecstatic with his at the top of the thread, but then he's sitting down.

Some beautiful stuff here.

They've certainly held their value though it seems! I'd be intrigued to try one but I bet there's a lot that can go wrong with the enormous Bob Moog circuit board in 45 years, and I doubt it's easy to fix.

I've got to admit I kind of want one now.

Great eye - that's exactly it, thank you! I've never had my hands on one but they look fascinating. PM started on a Burns Black Bison so I can see why all the tone options would have appealed to him.

I was watching an old 1980 Parkinson the other day and spotted Pete Morgan (with the Harry Stoneham group) playing a really unusual looking bass. A bit Thunderbirdish but not quite? This is the best view we got of it. Nice jazzy tone. Anyone have any idea what it could be? And if youv'e never admired Pete's work with Harry Stoneham or Dudley Moore - or Blossom Dearie! - now might be the moment...

Gorgeous bass tone on this new Sven Wunder disc from around 35s. There must be more going on here than just plectrum & flats?

A bit late, but I thought this might be useful if anyone else is in a similar position - the Dunlop ECB004 worked a treat. Noiseless.

You're very welcome. I did derail my own thread didn't I!

regular sunday best.

they do make some amazing looking stuff - getting it from Canada ain't cheap but I just had to pick up the T2 as I've wanted a Maestro Rhythm and Sound ever since hearing Melvin Jackson's Funky Skull LP. At the risk of derailing my own thread...

wow that looks well spec'd and I'm a big fan of EBS gear, but on the expensive side for this one use - plus Templo recommend a dedicated PSU for the T2 as apparently it doesn't like multi-output PSUs. Fussy little thing isn't it.

The Templo guys (guy?) advise linear (and a dedicated psu). I had an 18v switching one to hand and voltage leaked into the audio as soon as I turned the tone up. BUT the one I had was center-positive with an polarity reverser extension, so frustratingly I don't know if it was the reverser or the switching nature of the psu that caused the issue. People seem to like the Dunlop one (is it the only option) but I also gather that one can be squealy under the wrong conditions, and this pedal seems particularly sensitive. If a linear 18v centre neg UK psu exists I'd happy to pay a few quid more rather than start buying more stuff to return.

Hi all I just picked up a Templo T2 https://templodevices.com/products/t2-multi-effect which needs 18v to run. But the catch is it needs a dedicated linear PSU, a switching PSU (like the Dunlop ECB004) won’t do. Any recommendations for such a device?? Or even somewhere in the UK that sells the ‘silent’ Fulltone switcher?

this is beautifully concise btw, thanks man.
