[quote name='BassManKev' post='168970' date='Apr 3 2008, 10:38 AM']wouldn't that be a value killer though, or am i missing something??[/quote] Converting the Mutron to work on 9v standard DC? If anything I'd say it ADDS to the value!

[quote name='NoirBass' post='168901' date='Apr 3 2008, 09:21 AM']The GigRig lads have it - the only people I would trust with such matters. and yes the Virtual Battery is the way to go according to Dan. I look forward to its return. Cheers for the heads up tho[/quote] That's cool my friend. It seriously is the best thing to have done. No more batteries, and no weird adaptor. I couldn't be happier with the work he's done to mine!

[quote name='kevin_lindsay' post='168844' date='Apr 3 2008, 06:46 AM']No problem matey!!! Incidentally - it's "Dan" at the GigRig sweetie!!!! hahahaha[/quote] Hi Kevin, it is actually Dave who did all the work with repairing and such - he is the engineer. Dan is one of the designers I think! Cheers

[quote name='NoirBass' post='168456' date='Apr 2 2008, 02:40 PM']Cant believe it - I've been after one of these for ages and then 3 come up in the same week. I bought the first one I saw on here, unfortunately its not working! - However, I have the best engineers in the land currently working on it to restore it to its former glory I wish you two had posted last week, could have saved me alot of bother. Good luck with the sale Noir[/quote] Who might that be mate? I had my other one into Dave at The GigRig, and he resurrected the thing and got it working perfectly on a 9V Boss DC Jack, using a product The GigRig now sell called the Virtual Battery. I was the first customer/tester, the ones in mine are the finished prototypes before they went into production I think! It's just the way of the world mate. It's a scientifically proven fact that as soon as you buy something you want, loads of them pop up straight away! And cheers kev

[quote name='TimmyC' post='168354' date='Apr 2 2008, 12:58 PM']Thanks but I'm going to pass[/quote] No problem mate.

[quote name='TimmyC' post='168347' date='Apr 2 2008, 12:53 PM']Ha, nice timing [/quote] I'm a bassist, after all Didn't mean to steal your thunder though mate! Any thoughts on that Monacor? [quote name='Toasted' post='168348' date='Apr 2 2008, 12:54 PM']Great filter, fair price. I'm sore tempted. I did promise Mrs Toasted no more pedals in April tho... I'll have to bow out and let someone else steal this brilliant deal.[/quote] Thanks Joe, I bet you could persuade Mrs Toasted...It IS a Mu-Tron after all

The Monacor MA-10 Effectmatic is a clone of the Mutron III made in the late 70's, under license from Musitronics. They share all the same controls, and almost identical components and circuitry. The sound is VERY close. It's slightly smaller than a Mutron too. Here is a link to [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=3900&hl=monacor+effectmatic"]Tayste's thread[/url] where you can get some more info, and hear some soundclips! I am offering it at a price of £160 including next day delivery to your door. I have a couple of mates interested, so if you would like it, PM me, and I will put you next in line, should the deals fall through. Cheers. [b]Price Drop: £150 delivered [/b] As you can see, it's in pretty much MINT condition, which is rare for a pedal of it's age!! I should also mention, like the original Mutron III, this unit takes 2 9v Batteries, it looks like 1 in the Pic, but they are actually stacked one on top of the other

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='168298' date='Apr 2 2008, 11:03 AM']This would be a perfect partner for my identical DJ4 but you know what I'm like with 5s Dave [/quote] +1....My DJ4 is white, but I have no problem with inter-racial couples

Ah right. I don't think I can take it after all now (awesome deal on some vintage pedals), so good luck with the sale

Is the Hipshot 1/2" or 3/8"? If its the 1/2" i'll probably take it

I'm really seriously considering this...Not sure I've got the cash to splash though!

Hmm, I probably should have used a smiley at some point to convey my sarcasm hehe! Was just shocked at the amount of 9v Battery holders Looks like a great bass, good luck with the sale!

Blimey....You'll probably spend £1850 in 9v Batteries!! I take it the Pre is 18V, a 9V for the LEDs....And what's the last one for?

Ian - Do you know how much Postage will likely be? Cheers

*Grumbles about lack of cash*

Oooh I don't have a feedback loop at present. I'll check my balance at lunchtime today and see if I can afford it. Pop it on hold for me till then

I want this but have no cash, and not sure I have anything to trade. Anything in particular you are after?
