    Jad Freer Capo

    ... And, of course, I started selling some of my precious valued pedals in search for the perfect tone - not fair to hold out the Capo to that premise but hoping it'll get me closer, and free the real estate to let me get a C4 Synth lol. Looking around in Reverb to check the Capo, 'similar products' highlighted the Chase Bliss Brothers - 2 gain stages, each working as Boost / Distortion / Fuzz - simpler EQ, no ID, but also a combined mode to stack A into B or B into A. At risk of hijacking the thread, has anyone looked into this? Seems like they are indeed comparable - the Chase Bliss feels more like a distortion pedal than the Capo is in terms of DI for sure, but worth your thoughts!
  2. I'm trying to simplify / rejig my board, for tuner + C4 synth + Capo + Compressor. Hence, my pedals below are up for sale - I'm not desperate and the comp is a feeler - I may change my mind and keep them so go at them whilst available. Add a fiver for postage: * £230 Blackstone Appliances Mosfet drive: The star of the show - super rare, great overdrive/distortion, with 2 channels and capacity to shift the EQ from flat to scooped, separate gain distortion levels for each with knobs that won't make you wonder whether your settings are busted - can adjust easily with a nail or a pick though. Anything from adding a bit of hair to actual distortion is possible. Works a treat on bass and the brightness/depth can be adjusted via plug in capacitors and trim pots on the rear - I never felt the need for that tweaking though. SOLD. * £160 ZVex Vexter Wholly Mammoth - as the name suggests, a massive, gated fuzz tuned specifically for bass - amazing when combined with the Blackstone, but just great on its own really. SOLD. * £130 Fuzzrocious Lil Fella - distortion to fuzz depending on gain, comes with a gate engaged on the switch - crunchy tone, super organic, able from low drive to metal * £160 ZVex Instant Lo Fi Junky - chorus perfect for lo-fi / introducing odd noise with three wave signals flickable on switch... lots of depth/compression from 80s chorus to vibrato. * £70 ThorpyFX Fat General Clone - a feeler since I love this pedal, but I could be interested in other comps potentially - tone enhancing, always on pedal - I just love it but open to a change if anyone is after this. Like I said I love this pedalboard and you can tell it's been crafted with love, lust and GAS - happy to keep them but I'm interested in trades with a C4 Synth, POTENTIALLY a Source Audio Aftermath or a cool compressor but ideally trying to get funds for a Jad Freer Capo.
  3. Unopened set of Ernie Ball slinkies 45-130. £20 posted Unused Labella 760M 52-110 £30 posted, cut for Fender with lots of wrap around post - bought them off a basschatter who said bought them new a week ago - tried them and gauge is just not for me. can do swaps for Labellas 43-104 or 45-105. Best, Ander.
  4. Argh! Interested, but need to look how does it compare to the Lil Fella!
  5. Would totally get this if I could - instead I had to do with the tattoo version! Bump on me!
  6. Jono offered me his fender vintage precision pickguard. He reached out to my ‘wanted’ post and packaged it perfectly. Film was still on, fast delivery - can absolutely recommend! Cheers @Jono Bolton Ander.
  7. DM'd.... hopefully we can agree a price! @Hydra19

    @EmmettC you’re not helping me save monies! 😁

    argh! I’m strapped for cash and have so many other bits to sort, but I’m not sure that I’ll hold out for much longer. Conversations with the JF team have been great too, and I feel like comp + c4 + Capo is as minimal and versatile as it gets. I play mostly neosoul/Motown and cranked up (metal'd up 😆) punk rock… C4 for textures, ala octave, synth lead, pads, chorusey stuff, and done.

    Aha! I love the darkglass clank but my gripe with DG is that it eats bass from the EQ all the time, making it thinner sounding. the Lil Fella is better in that end but I’m still to find a distortion that does me the same fat thick bassy tone as my clean…

    Also I'm quite liking this for a saturated tone, around 4:08 :

    Well! I am back bringing some goodies - being the instagramslut™ I can be at times I took advantage of a post from Jad Freer's insta on 'DM us with any questions!' I have to say they were super nice and answered my questions... Mattia was happy for me to post this here: So in essence, yes it can do pretty high gain, not sure it gets to the level of Darkglass but still... It could well replace my current gain stage (Blackstone devices mosfet OD, woolly mammoth, lil fella) to purchase a Capo for similar sale value of those... and leave space in my mini board for a C4 synth to put on the effects loop. That and a compressor and you'd have a pretty mighty mini board eh? The links Mattia referred to: Not maxed out And this is 2:08, with gain at about 1-2pm on both A and B sides, potentially could work out for me squeezing it a bit more:
  13. As title… perfect condition, 3 different waveforms too. would prefer to swap for a c4 synth but happy to sell too.
  14. Great news, my other gear sold so retiring this - it was a short window gladly!

    Hard to do so when I’ve all of youse seducing me with your gadgets!

    oh. Uh oh. Gawd. Oh. It does have a good heavy grit eh…? Dang! The second tone sounds amazing for the type of distortion I like. Damn… I think I’m in trouble. It could even do fuzzy bit I can see from there…. how wide is it? Like an Alpha Omega/B7k kind of thing? this could potentially replace the woolly mammoth, Blackstone Mosfet and lil fella and almost pay itself that way……… Could do mini tuner, el capo and c4 synth (c4 would do chorus, octaver, filter and synthy lead stuff of course). HMMMMMM….!!!
  17. Ah indeed, I love these roasted maple necks - Feels to me like MM was the first one to introduce these in production, and to me they the most consisten part of this model, super sturdy and lovely to the touch! And ultra dark ebony board always!
  18. Thank you! I do think is a good steal...! Discontinued colour too, just lovely.
  19. Haha! I just need the money to get my ol' 5HH Cruz Teal back in my arms is all!
  20. It really is, a model LPB full whack American P bass... did I say discontinued colour? I genuinely hope all my other bits sell before this so that I can keep it
  21. FEELER: Seeing as my fav squeeze may be available to me again, and don't want to make the current owner wait more than I should, this gorgeous, tremendous P Bass is available. Nitro Finish, lake placid blue, covers on installed perfectly measured etc. Strung with Daddario Chromes. The step behind a CS Journeyman it's been called - CS 63 pickup, 1.75" nut - 4kg. If my other basses sell (MM SR Special Cruz Teal 4H, Fender AO Jazz 60s) I'll keep this. I could take cash my way in exchange for a nice P Bass, but especially a JMJ in blue.
