I definitely think there are some that I will "miss". I've got two Darkglass pedals that are absolutely phenomenal, for instance. But, there are two things colliding: the need for simplicity and frankly the need for cash. I will, though, do a proper video review thingy with it because as was said earlier these product demos just scrape the surface. Of course, none of them ever say "hmmm, that sounds sh!t" on the synths for example! But, it does look like you could do a better version by combining chorus, Octave and fuzz... So we will see! Mine won't arrive until some point in July.

Just in case... This is the best review I've seen so far.

If that was on quotation marks with Unknown as the source...

I hear you. One of the guitarists and me are very similar in terms of how we strive for better gear and different sounds all the time. But while I'm sure I can hear and feel the difference with separate pedals over good quality digital multi effects I need to simplify and work within the limitations of my gear instead of chasing something I won't reach.
-
I'm done with separate pedals... Thing is I've spent so much time, effort and money building up a pedalboard I was 90% happy with... Oh well, every day is a school day

I've only gone and ordered one 🫡

The MXR DI is a great pedal, excellent choice! I can't speak highly enough of my Darkglass Duality Fuzz. I absolutely love it. I have the older version with more dials and the flexibility on it is excellent for whether you want buzz-saw rough rock bass fuzz or a softer and more modern sounding fuzz to go with other effects to make a synth type sound.

I'm @rr_on_bass if anyone is interested in photos of left handed basses.

BC price £625 I am about to move house and have had to make some tough decisions on my music gear to raise funds. None tougher than this. I love this bass, I don't think they will ever make them for lefties again. It took me months to source the proper hard case and that wasn't cheap. Here it is, up for sale. My lefty Epiphone Jack Casady. With Maruszczyk flats. It sounds incredible, I've only giggled it a few times unfortunately, but the condition is superb. Feel free to make a sensible offer. I also have a leather/ suede strap for it too, also listed for sale. I really, really don't want to sell it. But apparently things like a fridge and a washing machine are more important? Collection preferred. Courier at cost is possible.

Stingray 5 Scratchplate ideas - need some creative input!

Clear perspex, circuit board showing... Find some way to get an LED in there to light it up. A guitarist I played with for a while had this on his strat, looked quite cool. -
£125 posted or £120 collected. Price updated in line with recent second hand sales. Boxed with all the bits. Great quality wireless system with pedalboard mountable charging/ dock station. Absolutely excellent bit of kit. I've used it for about a year and a half now. It's been well looked after, always in a protective pedalboard case. Only reason for selling is because I'm going back to multi FX so I'll be replacing this with the slightly less brilliant WL-20.

There's a music rental place in North London clearing out good, old school heavy cabs on eBay very cheap. Fender 6x10, Genz Benz 4x10s... I've been so tempted but just cannot justify it.

Might sound a bit daft but it could be the angle you're holding the bass at.... Try standing up with it hanging on a strap in a natural playing position. If you're tilting the bass various ways while you play to see where the buzz is coming from it can come and go. What's important is whether it buzzes when in a natural playing position. If it's new, and I know Jet has a good reputation but they are more towards the budget end, it possibly hasn't had the best set up out of the factory so it may need a proper set up. You can either do this yourself (watch loads of YouTube videos, Google, use this forum) or if you're not confident it find a local BC'er who may be kind enough to help

Well, you've all persuaded me. Will be ordering tomorrow. Has anyone got any kind of hard case for theirs?

Would have to be to spend so much time with Lars.

I've over estimated the price. Now £550. Reluctantly putting this beauty up for sale. Bought new in May 2022 with the matching fitted hard case (also Epiphone branded). This is a gorgeous, gorgeous guitar with P90 pickups. However, it's been out of the case to be played just a handful of times in the last two years. I'm a bassist who dabbles a little with guitar so it's mostly lived in it's case unused. I'm about to move house and need to raise some funds so have to reluctantly move it on. It has had a recent set up and fresh new strings. Showroom condition, no dings, scrapes or knocks. Ask for more photos and you shall receive.

Agreed! I tried tapewounds first expecting them to sound great, it came with rounds but I didn't like that...Maruszczyk flats and it's heaven. I've even slapped it a little with those on!

And it's out on the sofa right now... I'm moving house soon and starting to get scared of all the stuff I need to buy. Might be making some tough decisions on scaling back music gear. The HB was so cheap new it's probably not even worth selling. But the JC might go, and a lot of effects, and my electric guitar... Keeping the dog though.
