  1. So much stuff I'm looking forward to trying....I might just swap like a mad man every week which I used to hate guitarists doing! Gallien Krueger Fusion 550. Gallien Krueger Fusion 800S. Bugera BVV3000. Electron Green Fender Precision. Spector Holoflash Legend 4. Orange bass collection entwistle tribute.
  2. I think to have an active account (which allows you to buy or sell) you have to have those details with them.
  3. I've had the "you're now not allowed to buy or sell" email as I wouldnt give them my bank details. Absolutely no way is any third party site like ebay having access to all my bank details and permission to deposit and withdraw at will, what they like, when they like. And that's before even mentioning the safety aspect of them having the details on file ..... which every big business seems to loose every few years in a hacking attack...
  4. I saw this early this week. I dont know anyone who has gigged one though. On paper it's a great deal.
  5. Good luck! We are after an 80s keyboardist too at the moment -- nightmare to find one!
  6. I made the decision after lockdown to be in as many bands as I could feasibly manage, and enjoy all the experiences i could. All will turn out for the best for you in the end. Keep your options open.
  7. Hi all, These have come out of a new bass collection power bass (great basses). Only removed as I tried some gzr emgs. Hardly used. Great p bass tone. When removing i did remove the foam and springs, but i will include what i salvaged. Also i cut the bridge earth wire, so you'll need one of those, but if it's a straight swap you can just leave the one in from your existing pick ups and solder it to these pots. For clarity, these dont come with knobs, but i can include some at request. £35 delivered.
  8. Hi all, I'm having a huge clear out before everything restarts again and anything I've not used goes. This is a brilliant, brilliant pedal. It takes a bit of getting used to, but when you do its superb. Basically an Ampeg svt emulator. A very very good one. I've had them all - Ampeg DI, scr, Helix stomp and vt di and this is hands down the best. Comes boxed, in excellent condition - just a very slight ink slit on the p of the peg writing. Note - it does not come with an adaptor. £110 delivered.
  9. The thrill is in the chase. Even when we find the perfect tone, we pretend we havent, just so we can buy and experiment with more gear...!
  10. I could be tempted to part with it, as my gk is my main amp. This was just for the odd jam and to scratch the valve itch.
  11. Yeh, me too. I always keep an eye open, but thought they'd all long gone. So I'm happy to have got this one.
  12. No, I think the tech said it was always happening even when using the jacks, but the Speakon fuse reacted more quickly and recognised the issue and therefore deliberately failed.
  13. Just gave it a proper loud 2 hour blast at the studios. Flippin great sound!!!! Very, very very SVT. Very happy. Now, just got to sit here an hour to let it cool down before I can move it!
  14. Had it checked by a guy who used to be a top ampeg tech. He said the amp sounds great and is built great too. The main issue turned out to be the valve prongs were a little too short to connect 100% solid all the time so they were slightly moving and causing arcing in the end which did the fuses in. All fired up and sounding great now.
  15. Picking it up from the techs today. Theyve fixed it, so should be all singing and dancing by this afternoon!
  16. I still want an ampeg svt classic or svt 2. Even though I know I dont need one, or want to lift one, or have the maintenance on one.... but I still want one.
  17. I love hot covers. Very helpful and friendly. Great covers too.
  18. Frustratingly it's still at the tech's, they still havent even had a look at it yet to let me know what's wrong.
  19. A fortune! That's if it hasn't been damaged before. I dont know why they would remove all the valves. Seems odd.
  20. Ive seen that myself this week. I think that's the VBA all valve amp, not the DBS hybrid. It's a weird listing, as it says it works fine, but doesnt come with valves?!

    Ashdown Drive

    The originAL preamp pedal for some reason has this. Youd think its be the same as the abm pre amp section but it isnt (well, mine wasnt anyway). It has much much more drive and break up in it. So much, it was difficult to tame. But sounded great.
