Only recently put this together after holding onto various bits for a long time.... it looks, feels and sounds amazing... but, for my gigging and playing, 5 strings is my preference, and I do have another similar 4 string... Links to pics below; Squire Vintage Modified Body in Olympic White Genuine, 70's Dimarzio Jazz Pickups KiOgon control plate/wiring harness USA Hipshot Lollipop tuners Fender USA Bridge Northwest Guitars Neck 80's ESP scratchplate Dean Markley Strings Pic here in my studio; [url="https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ba66wBP6acyTaTmD2"]https://photos.app.g...66wBP6acyTaTmD2[/url] And here at a gig; [url="https://photos.app.goo.gl/wwGuj4HVfMPxdpzo2"]https://photos.app.g...Guj4HVfMPxdpzo2[/url] There is a piece of paint missing just below the neck route on the body, but otherwise in great condition. Realistically, would want setting up how you like it as its only recently been put together. Looks awesome, sounds like a 70s Jazz! Only trades I would consider would be for a lower end 5 string - Squire VM P5, Sire 5 string, Yamaha BB, Sterling by Musicman type thing (with cash, or not depending on the bass in question)... if there is something you have that is similar and may interest please get in touch. Also happy to do a straight sale for £400 shipped, or listen to offers if you are keen. PM me! Will add better pics tomorrow when I'm in the studio.

Hi All, Big pedal sale - have re-evalutated my approach to pedals, and invested in a new board to see me through the various projects I'm involved in. [size=5][b]Eventide H9[/b][/size] I got this at the start of the year - its amazing. Really convinced me that modern day multi-fx/digital-fx now sound awesome, and have moved on a lot - but, I gig a lot, and am starting to find the way you edit sounds a bit limiting, and I also run some big signal paths, so this sale is part of simplifying that. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Pedal is immaculate (has been on my board since new) and comes with box and all other bits as when purchased new (PSU, bag etc). Will also come with a 3 button aux switch (I have been using this to move patch selection up/down and activate the tuner) and a suitable jack lead to use this (costing £25 & £15 respectively).[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This is the Core model, but I will transfer my Eventide account to the buyer which includes Pitchfuzz, Crush Station, Eq & Comp, October, Q-wah and some other algorithms (these cost $19 each).[/font][/color] [url="https://goo.gl/photos/bouVYk2ZkpU2q3d97"]https://goo.gl/photo...uVYk2ZkpU2q3d97[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Cheapest I can find the H9 Core is £369, then add £40 for the aux pedal/lead and £100+ of algo5and this comes in at over £500. Looking for £350 Inc delivery. [/font][/color] [b][size=5][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Boss ME50b[/font][/color][/size][/b] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Bit of a classic I think this pedal! Really easy to use, giggable sounds, and still available to buy new. Basically works like 3 individual Stomp Boxes, that you can then save patches for, so you can cycle through mini 'boards'. Great condition, with genuine Boss PSU, and I will also include a Boss FS-5U that you can use in various ways with the pedal to cycle through settings.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Looking for £130 posted[/font][/color] [b][size=5][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]DHA VT1[/font][/color][/size][/b] Great pedal to use as a pre-amp, or even an overdrive, but I now have a valve amp for studio use which is where it was being used. Plain steel box version, with labels in handwritten black. Great condition, with original PSU (these can be a bit funny with PSU's so this is good!). £55 posted? [b][size=5]Boss LS2[/size][/b] Great pedal for splitting signals and doing different things with them (clean/dirty, clean/fx etc) - great for the Royal Blood thing too. Gigged, with marks, but very presentable, and very giggable. Can also be used to supply power to other pedals with a daisy chain. £50 posted? [size=5][b]Danelectro Black Licorice[/b][/size] Fun little pedal that sounds surprisingly good! Octave and bass controls makes it quite usable! £15 posted? Open to offers on all of these, will put them on ebay in the newt couple of days if no interest here, so would rather take an offer here, and save ebay hassle/fees! Discounts available for bulk purchases, and happy to meet if mutually convenient! All pedals as described, but happy to send pics - PM me!

You need a computer to adjust sounds, but that's part of the attraction for me. Set sounds, the use the aux pedal to select, and the pedal to activate. It means the pedal is small and mega powerful, but not hindered by awkward menus/onboard controls as seems the case with most multi-fx in my experience...

Looking at the possibility of moving on 5his amazing piece of kit... Largely, because whilst it is amazing, I'm just not using it to its full potential in my current gig! If you aren't familiar with this pedal, Eventides tagline kind of sums it up... 'Every pedal you need in one' Pedal is immaculate (has been on my board since new) and comes with box and all other bits as when purchased new (PSU, bag etc). Will also come with a 3 button aux switch (I have been using this to move patch selection up/down and activate the tuner) and a suitable jack lead to use this (costing £25 & £15 respectively). This is the Core model, but I will transfer my Eventide account to the buyer which includes Pitchfuzz, Crush Station, Eq & Comp, October, Q-wah and some other algorithms (these cost $19 each). Can upload pics later, but in the mean time here is a link to one on my board; https://goo.gl/photos/bouVYk2ZkpU2q3d97 Cheapest I can find the H9 Core is £369, then add £40 for the aux pedal/lead and £100+ of algo5and this comes in at over £500. Looking for £375 Inc delivery.

Hey All, Would love to hear what people think of this little project I've been working on - its a 4 track EP of Motown/Soul influenced tracks. I've played bass and recorded vocals on all of them, along with writing, recording, mixing etc - and have used a selection of musicians I've played with over the years; https://soundcloud.com/alexjandthegreeneyedcrush https://www.facebook.com/Alex-J-The-Green-Eyed-Crush-1330310363743822/ Just the one track for now - will release the full EP over the next couple of weeks. Would love peoples thoughts, and likes/shares would be massively appreciated if you like it!

Up for sale is this absolute beast, and quite unusual Fender head. Check the specs out below - its amazing - 1200W at 2 ohms, and 800W at 4 mean its got more than enough power for any situation. The tone is just insane - its the epitomy of the dreaded 'H' word. And the similaritites in layout and tone between this and the Thunderfunk range is written about all over the web! This one has been with me for a year or so, in my studio. Come to the realisation that for what I use it for its overkill, and the investment could be better used elsewhere and on some more useful kit. Its in great condition - see pics, with the rack ears slightly bent and some slight rack rash. Happy to courier, or look at the possibility of meeting up - Im based in South Devon, but gig weekly - predominantly across the South of the country, but sometimes further afield. As ever - any questions, please get in touch. Price includes delivery. [url="http://s1067.photobucket.com/user/aj5string/media/IMG_20170427_220708_410.jpg.html"][/url] Fender's marketing speak about this; [color=#000000][font=Arial, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][b]The cornerstone of an earthmoving bass rig![/b][/size] Merging the easy-to-use front end from the 400 PRO and the extreme power of the Bassman 1200, the 800 is a toneful monster that puts total tweakability at your fingertips. It delivers 800W at 4 ohms and 1,200W at 2 ohms via either Speakon or 1/4" connectors. The anodized silver faceplate is easy to read and is flanked by heavy-duty chrome handles. Tone is handled by a 5-band EQ that includes a 3-band semi-parametric EQ with on/off and gain control. A Room Balance control compensates for extreme acoustics. Other controls include an Enhance switch that emphasizes highs and lows, a variable compressor, balanced XLR output with pre/post EQ switch, ground llift and level control for line out, mute switch, tuner output, effects loop, and one-button footswitch for EQ.[/size][/font][/color] [size=5][b]FEATURES[/b][/size][list] [*]800W at 4 ohms ; 1,200W at 2 ohms [*]Speakon and 1/4" connectors [*]Legible anodized silver faceplate [*]Heavy-duty chrome handles [*]5-band EQ with 3-band semi-parametric EQ with on/off and gain control [*]Room Balance control compensates for extreme acoustics [*]Enhance switch emphasizes highs and lows [*]Variable compressor [*]Balanced XLR output with pre/post EQ switch [*]Ground lift and level control for line out [*]Mute switch [*]Tuner output [*]Effects loop [/list]
