Great demo, thanks for putting it together! Nice playing and clear narration, too. I have an HH in speed blue and love it. I’ve recently been moving to a 5er but the HH Stingray Special was my largely unchallenged number one for a long while. I typically found myself using either the classic Stingray bridge pick-up only or the two inner coils but I appreciate the flexibility. I’ve read about others having issues when playing slap; I don’t really play enough slap to have suffered with it but other’s mileage may vary. Thanks again for the demo!

Congratulations to whoever beat me to it! I was in under three minutes but that’s too long in Cog world. They’re absolutely worth it though. Thanks to @GrammeFriday for making them available, too.

I recently bought a bass from Chris and he was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He answered all of my questions about the bass (and I had a lot) and had clearly looked after it well. Had a nice cuppa and said hello to a dog too!

Wow! Fantastic! PM sent regarding the Tarkinfall.

Another vote for the Broughton. Josh makes some great kit and his mastery of HPFs and LPFs is arguably how he’s made his name. He just gets them right. He usually posts and gets it to the UK in about a week but not sure if it’s different near Christmas.

@jimbobothy wow! Nice minis board. I like the ordered nature of your line-up too. Separately, this thread is terrible for GAS.

Loving the shelves @ped! I was playing my Prunes & Custard yesterday. It’s a very odd beast but quite cool, not least because of the Datsuns song about it that I listened to on repeat when it first came out. I use the P&C as a kind of tone thickener so everything sounds fat and lo-fi. I’m not sure that’s what it was intended for but I like it a lot.

Thanks for the heads up @Quatschmacher! I appreciate it. Happily, another BCer was kind enough to sell a Knightfall 66 to me, but someone will be getting an excellent pedal at a good price if they go for it. I’m still in the lookout for a T-70 and R-1 though! Hopefully Tom will produce some more at some point. @Sibob that is a thing of beauty!

They stayed up for about 40 minutes before seemingly selling out again. Hopefully Tom will keep producing them regularly.

T-16s live.

It’s back in at Bass Direct by the looks of things.

There’s one in the classifieds now!

Does anyone know if there are substantive differences between Mini Tarkins that have LPF and HPF switches that have up/down positions versus those with up/middle/down?

I’m here to help 😉

The big blue one. I’ve been considering a few other of their pedals too. I’m interested in the Subversive Propaganda and a couple of their drive pedals. Both units are well made and sound great. They take up a lot of real estate and have side jacks but I mainly use them on a desk too so cramming them into a pedal board matters less to me.

I picked up the FTelettronica PLL and Envelope Follower a couple of weeks ago and have been impressed by both. I was fiddling around with the Envelope Follower yesterday evening and it’s very flexible and very wet (as opposed to croaky) sounding. I’ve not played a Meatball though so can’t say how close they are. I’m planning to spend more time on it over the next couple of days and maybe try it with a different bass; I tried it with a passive bass and had to keep sensitivity at max and dig in to get it to trigger as much as I wanted but when it was dialled in it sounded great. FTelettronica were great to order through and the pedal arrived in less than a week.

Thanks! Starting with a T-16?! Bold! Judging by some of the other threads I’ve seen your pedals since then have been equally good. It tracks incredibly well. No glitches down to G#/Ab and is extremely subby. Plus I had a T-16 toy as a kid so happy days! Thanks, Tom!
