    I'm selling my EBS Valvedrive DI pedal bought new from Bass Direct. It's the 9v version with a UK power supply. I've been able to run it fine on my pedalboard with a 1- spot power supply. It's in as new condition with original box. It's a great drive pedal and I've really been in two minds about selling it. The only thing I don't like about it is that it can take a while to warm up (like a valve amp). For me this was OK if I left it on all the time, but not satisfactory as an occasional effect where it needs to work immediately. £180 posted. Thanks for looking!

    [quote name='project_c' timestamp='1463604535' post='3052814'] 100% correct, I own a whole house and it's smaller than that room Still I think cases do need a rethink, they look nice but what are they for? [/quote] Thanks for the room compliment. It is a nice room - converted loft in a London house. And the rest of that house is swamped in family cr@p! I only posted for a laugh. To raise a chuckle. An antidote to the "Wals you can't afford" thread if you like. But I take your point. The Hiscox's get used a lot, and they're the only ones I trust. The rest are just there to protect the instruments in the house - from kids, dog, falling objects etc.

    [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1463588925' post='3052645'] I don't want to worry you, but I think one of those cases is for a saxamophone [/quote] Yes…my baritone. Schweeet isn't it

    Cases! Wa-hey! Hiscox, Berkeley, Fender, Stagg, SKB, Miscellaneous and Hobbycraft... [url="http://s712.photobucket.com/user/lapolpora/media/IMG_2308.jpg.html"][/url]

    It's still for sale under a new listing: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wal-MkII-Custom-Series-5-String-Bass-/152008384348?&_trksid=p2056016.m2518.l4276 There's something really dodgy about the bidding pattern on this. I don't know the story but my alarm has been rung. Be careful...

    [quote name='PJS' timestamp='1457205503' post='2996392'] Lovely basses. What sort of tones does the bridge pickup produce on the Elite? I've always been curious but have never tried one with that pickup arrangement. [/quote] Thank you! The Elite bridge pick up on its own is super bright and trebly. Way too much and totally useless in the realm of P bass tone. However a little bit of it blended with the neck pick up gives the bass a sheen and presence and really compliments the classic tones available from the neck pickup. It adds brightness, but in a different way to the tone pot. [quote name='Jackemmings' timestamp='1457109975' post='2995499'] Such a lovely Rob Allen. [/quote] It is. And has a tone that matches I have a lot of basses and play different styles of music. This is the one bass to rule them all.

    Hi, what string gauge are these?
  15. lapolpora
    No it's not. I'm absolutely looking forward to it. I've been listening to their first album this week - absolutely incredible! And fast becoming my favourite band.

    Gone! I've given it away to a friend.

    I have a spare ticket for TesseracT tomorrow night at Koko in Camden. It's an e-ticket so it can be emailed. And it's standing room. Anyone up for it? Any takers? It would be a shame for it to go to waste... Message me! Derrick

    Still here? I'd have it - if I didn't already own the other one! Honestly if I had any money left over I would buy it just so that nobody else could have it. For the few that don't know him, Beedster is a gent and a BC legend. Buy with confidence. And don't dawdle! Just pull the trigger...

    I bought Steve's Alembic Rogue. He's a fantastic guy to deal with. Gave very specific photos and details as requested. His packaging was excellent too! An absolute credit to Basschat. Derrick
