Great pedal and rare as hen’s teeth. Good price too.

*PRICE DROP* I'm offering my Shift-line Buzz A+ v.2 Bass Drive for £150 posted in the UK. It comes boxed and is in fantastic condition. Some of the pictures show white spots of dust that I only noticed once I'd loaded the pictures onto my computer. The folks behind this pedal made the Shift-line Olympic MkIIIS and definitely know a thing or two about making pedals. They are extremely difficult to get hold of (as I found out) as they were available from St. Petersburg and now, if they appear all, they appear to be coming from Kazakhstan. I've been A/Bing my gain stage options and decided to stick with my MBD2 as that gets me closer to the sound in my head. As always, please let me know if you would like any demos; it's almost worth asking just to hear the poor quality of my playing. Ask for pick playing if you want a real laugh. As per the web page: "Bass and distortion go hand in hand — at least, that's what we believe, and many bass players seem to agree. The A+ Buzz has found its place in bass pedalboards all over the world, and now it's time for a new and improved revision: the Buzz V.2 bass drive. The new version builds up on what made the Buzz so popular. The strong core sound, great dynamic response, and simple controls with a wide sweet spot are all present in the Buzz V.2 — but now they are joined by an improved EQ section along with separate volume controls for the dry and distorted signal. And due to the top-mounted jacks, it's now even easier to fit into your pedalboard!"

I'm offering my IdiotBox Effects Blower Box Bass Distortion for £110 posted in the UK. It comes boxed and, aside from the high quality dual lock velcro on the back, is basically in the condition I bought it in. This thing is loud, excellent and has its own incredibly long thread on a well-known US bass forum. I opted for the silver version in the larger casing rather than the smaller green (and, for a period, purple) enclosures because I just think it looks better and cooler. As per my Eras listing, I've been A/Bing my gain stage options and decided to stick with my MBD2 as that gets me closer to the sound in my head. As always, please let me know if you would like any demos; it's almost worth asking just to hear the poor quality of my playing. Ask for pick playing if you want a real laugh. As per the web page: "At first the Blower Box was my attempt to capture the classic Voivod Blacky sound on the Nothing Face album. They are my favorite band of all time and Blacky is my favorite bass player of all time. I was lucky enough to get Away to do the graphics for it and even got the whole band to sign the first VERY limited run of 15! But it turned out to not just be a pigeon holed "specific" tone pedal, but a KILLER bass overdrive/distortion beast! One of my main goals was to make it sound great no matter what setup was used. Small thin practice amp to monster rig. Controls are Top Left - Volume, Bottom Left - Distortion, Top Right - High cut/boost, Bottom Right - Low cut/boost. The low boost brings tons of beef and the high boost adds the snap. This thing KILLS on guitar and synths also! All feedback on this sucker is 100% positive and I couldn't be more stoked!!!"

I'm offering my Walrus Audio Eras Five Stage Distortion pedal for £110 posted in the UK. It comes boxed and, aside from the high quality dual lock velcro on the back, is basically in the condition I bought it in. It's an excellent (and striking) pedal but I've been A/Bing my gain stage options and decided to stick with my MBD2 as that gets me closer to the sound in my head. The finish on it is stunning - a kind of satin metallic, if that can be a thing. In the photos, the right side looks like it has a small dark mark at the top but it seems to be the dark undercoat shining through a bit more rather than any dink or ding. Please let me know if you would like any demos; it's almost worth asking just to hear the poor quality of my playing. Ask for pick playing if you want a real laugh. As per the Walrus marketing team: "Eras is a no apologies, high-gain distortion that’s ready to chug, shred, and palm mute with tight response and multiple clipping options. Use the Blend knob at max for a full distortion onslaught or roll back the Blend knob to creatively stack and mix other dirt pedals placed in front of Eras. Great for bassists that want to blend in their dry signal as well. Anywhere you set it, the Eras is ready to deliver a diverse world of speaker ripping sounds. The Eras features a five-position rotary knob that offers the following gain states: I. Tight mode with a slight mid-cut, LED hard clipping, and internal volume control. Fastest response, great for palm muting. II. Tight mode with a slight mid-cut and silicon hard clipping. Smooth with added compression. III. Dual clipping mode with a slight mid-cut and both silicon and LED hard clipping. Rich & full with added sustain. IV. Rhythm mode with a deeper mid-cut, LED hard clipping, and internal volume control. Scooped mids, tight response. V. Rhythm mode with a deeper mid-cut and silicon hard clipping. Rhythmic, warm and full. Think of each position as a different “flavor” of the pedal. Blend in dry signal or other pedals in combination with the gain states for a near-infinite amount of distortion sounds."

I'm selling my Boss GE-7 Equalizer for £15 posted to the UK. It's a little weathered from use but works fine. It doesn't come boxed but I'll find it a suitable box and make sure it's well wrapped. If you'd like a replacement back-plate to make it more pedalboard-friendly (made by custompedalboards.co.uk), I'll throw one in for a couple of quid extra.

I'm offering my Frederic Effects Green Russian Fuzz for £55 posted in the UK. The pedal is in great condition but does not come boxed (I'll find something suitable and pack it well). As per the Frederic Effects website: "Fredric Effects clone of the green box Russian Muff. This circuit differs from the later black box Russian and is identical to the Red Army Overdrive. The Green Russian circuit is perhaps the most sought-after of the transistor muffs." There is a good bass demo of the pedal on the Frederic Effects website for those curious as to what the pedal sounds like. I would also be happy to provide sound files on request. High quality dual lock velcro has been applied to the back, which I would be happy to remove at the buyer's request prior to posting.

I love this fuzz. I have a few too and this one is fantastic. For those tempted by it but on the fence, Hondo Felder put together a good review on YouTube that will convince you!

PM sent for that too.
