I don't think Eden will sell a huge number of these... things would be different if it were smaller and 9v powered though, perhaps some market research would have told them that!

A bit late now, but another option would've been to keep the B3K and run it into this which should be out next week!

He's either joking or he's an idiot.

I have a pair of Ampeg SVT210AV cabs, together they're like half of an 810 fridge. I wouldn't want to balance a big amp on top though!

Hmm, no centre detents on any of these according to the listings, the search continues... This place has them! Made by Noble: http://www.bestbassgear.com/pots.htm $18 a pop though! EDIT: And ordered. Consider this thread closed!

I'd tread carefully if ordering one of those.

I've found a couple of candidates for the 3rd one, but no idea if they are DPDT or SPDT switches: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/B50K-50K-Push-Pull-Pot-PC-Mount-Alpha-Gibson-Guitar-Amp-/350353950626?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5192b907a2 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALPHA-PUSH-PUSH-SWITCH-POT-500KA-MADE-IN-KOREA-/361077606312?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5411e707a8

Cheers, I'll watch that one for now whilst I see if I can find one closer to home!

I'm looking to do a passive to active conversion on a Warwick Streamer of mine, and would ideally like to do this without having to drill any additional holes. I like the look of the 3 knobs plus it makes it easier to revert to stock if I want to in future. I have a Darkglass Tone Capsule pre and I've worked out that to do what I want I will need: - 1x stacked/concentric 500K (or 250K) audio (for pickup volumes) - 1x stacked/concentric 50K linear, centre detent (for lo and hi mid) - 1x 50K linear, centre detent, push/pull DPDT (for bass and active/passive) I've been searching a few online stores using the sticky thread in this forum for parts suppliers. I've found plenty of examples of the first type but am struggling to find any of the others. Does anyone know of any stockists that might have these available, or are my requirements just too exotic and these parts don't exist?

I foolishly sold my v1 to upgrade to a v2, then again to get the DI, but the v1 sounded so much better to me. Seemed like the EQ knob positions were set differently and the drive more buzzy than crunchy in the later revisions. Having never actually A-B'd them though, it could be all in my head! Now I am VT-less and thinking of picking up one of these amps when they arrive. I wonder if setting the blend all the way to the left makes it act like a clean power amp, but accepting instrument level signals instead of having to boost to line level?

[quote name='Mark_88MPH' timestamp='1430821513' post='2764805'] Thanks, how about this? http://www.juno.co.uk/products/behringer-so400-super-octaver-ultimate-octaver-effects-pedal/493816-01/ [/quote] Looks like a Boss OC-3 clone. Never used one, they get mixed reviews so try searching to see what the verdict is!

[quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1430819944' post='2764776'] Digitech Bass Synth Wah has a good octave down ( better than the synth!) [/quote] It can't do a solo octave though (OP stated no dry signal) [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1430820455' post='2764780'] I believe the Zoom MS-60B gets praise for its octaver, let alone anything else it can do, and costs the same as a stand alone pedal. [/quote] It is a bargainous unit (the B1on doubly so) but there is a slight delay between what you play and the octave coming through which is enough to put me off using the Zoom as an octaver full stop.

EHX Octave Multiplexer can be had for £47 new: http://www.juno.co.uk/products/electro-harmonix-octave-multiplexer-analog-sub-octave/560441-01 Otherwise you're looking at a used Boss OC-2, Pearl Octaver (if you can find one) or MXR Bass Octave Deluxe.

How about a Pedaltrain Volto so you can use any pedals without having to plug into a wall?

Aguilar TH350 / TH500 would indeed be the place to start!

I have the latest model B7K, I had the B3K years ago but not compared them back to back... But I do know that the 7 does not sound exactly the same as the EQ imparts some colour and a volume boost to the overall tone. Also the latest pedals (both models) have a cut position on the attack switch nowadays, although I prefer not to use it and reduce treble with the EQ instead if necessary.

If you can live without the headphone output, PMT ate knocking out the Orange Terror Bass heads for £350. Great vintage tone but then you'd still need to find a cab... but that Fender Rumble combo for £400 sounds like your best bet.

Only 120V labelled on the input though so you'll need a transformer unless he can build you a 240V version. I'd ask before buying!

+1 on the Pyramids, love those strings. I forgot they are pretty low tension compared to others. I also had a dead E once. Two P basses side by side with 2 sets of them, swapped the sets around and it was definitely that string. Just sounded like it had a foam mute under it in comparison with the others for some reason! I got a whole new set sent out for free though so can't complain.

If you can, give the TIs another go and wait for them to become worn in, you may prefer the sound when they're a bit funked up! Or some foam under the strings perhaps to increase thumpability? Only other option I can see is the LTFs you mentioned - supposedly similar tension/feel to TIs but with the LaBella thump: [url="http://www.labella.com/products/ltf-4a/"]http://www.labella.c...roducts/ltf-4a/[/url]
