    If you could only keep one of the Ps, which would it be?
  2. uncle psychosis
    Open to sensible offers and postage is possible!

    I'd go for a second hand Fender, or even a higher end Squier. Stick with the tried and tested J design as the place to start.

    Mulling it over for the last few days, I'm definitely getting one now - busy at work this week so waiting to order it until such time as I'll be able to spend some time with it! Anyone else taking the plunge?
  5. uncle psychosis
    Ahh, yes thanks for reminding me to update thedescription!

    Nice! I can't pretend I know much about Warwicks but the Dolphin really is a cool instrument. Looks like a very nice example and a cool back story too.

    After reading the manual I'm about 99% sure I'm getting one. The overlap between effects slots works for me pretty much perfectly. Only question is if I wait for Amazon to get them in stock, purely because their returns process is so good if required.

    I'd argue that anyone who wants MIDI doesn't want an ME-series Boss unit in the first place. If you're going to control it remotely, then you're kind of defeating the USP of these units and would be better served with a Gx-100 / GT-1000-core which will offer a lot more options to the MIDI fiends.

    The market is people like me - people who like the idea of multifx but who don't give a toss about complex routing, who like WYSIWYG controls, who hate menu diving but who want the ability to add a few different effects here and there. The ME series has long been my favourite of the Boss MFX and I suspect I'm not alone. I'm no luddite - I use Helix Native, and I've owned an HX Stomp, a Gx-100, and god knows how many other effects --- but this seems right up my street. I'm sorely tempted to order one tonight.

    Up for grabs is a (mini) Crybaby Bass Wah CBM105Q. Great sounding wah, but I prefer the full size one. Be warned, the spring on this one is a bit squeaky (a common complaint with sprung wahs). Its a bit annoying but doesn't affect operation in the slightest. £65 posted in the UK please ***SOLD*** photos here: https://imgur.com/a/2gB5sZ7

    I've got one of these, but I don't really use the presets and I am not a big fan of the sound that you hear having no relation to where the knobs are physically set (which is partly why I don't use the presets). Does the VT Bass DI sound the same? (or does a different Sansamp pedal sound the same? I can't keep up...).
  13. uncle psychosis
    No, and I've never seen the point.
  14. uncle psychosis
    You two are really edgy.
  15. uncle psychosis
    A chance conversation with someone about something else has sparked an interest in Stingrays now, so trades/part ex against a musicman considered.
  16. uncle psychosis
    No worries!
  17. uncle psychosis
    Hey, any interest in a part ex / trade for any of these?

    Aenima is my favourite by a mile. Lateralus is the poster child for "glorious moments but too bloated". There's about three tracks too many IMO and almost all of them are too long. I'm one of these weirdos that actually prefers Puscifer, tbh...

    I absolutely love the nickel wound super brights. They were a revelation when I found them. I do wonder if the name puts people off. I don't think they're particularly bright at all.

    Somehow I didnt know that either. I also realised I had no idea what either he or Adam Jones looked like---I like Tool, but I know very little about them for some reason! Carina Round, who is the singer in Maynard's Puscifer side-project, is also English so I wonder if thats just a coincidence or if there's some kind of connection. I very much enjoyed the watch, good video. I did laugh when his tech admitted they change strings during soundcheck and then again halfway through a show. Thats pretty remarkable. I also like the fact that despite having quite a complex rig, there's no MIDI switching bollocks, and I definitely love the fact he's not using any "boutique" unobtainium pedals. Will probably have some Tool on my headphones on my commute tomorrow, although I find the albums a bit bloated. They have some absolutely glorious moments but I think they need a better editor at times.

    ***SOLD*** Hi guys, I bought this on a total whim last week. Its a gorgeous thing, nice Japanese build quality, 32" scale. However after playing it over the last week I've come to realise I prefer my full scale / full size basses so I'm going to move it on again. Yes, I'm a shameless bass tart. It really is quite small --- the body is pretty much the same as a Les Paul Junior (guitar) and from the top of the headstock to the bottom of the body its not much different in size to my acoustic guitar. "the internet" doesn't know very much about these---there's a thread on here from a few years ago where someone went "does anyone know anything about these?" and the answer was "no, but they look cool". Pretty sure they were Japanese domestic market only which would explain that. Complete gallery of pictures here (being slightly cheeky and re-using some of the ones from the dealer). https://imgur.com/a/ojHLARs The bass is 24 years old but is in good condition. Given the age there are a couple of dents in the finish, I think the worst one is the one on the lower horn, which I have tried to photograph. Yours for £250 collected. I can also post it, I have the packing material that it came to me in --- can probably only post on a Friday though (its my WFH day so I can be in for a courier). TRADES wise --- I'm not desperate for trades but something semi-hollow, or a nice J flavoured thing might appeal. Can potentially add cash for the right thing. QUICK SPECS BODY: Basswood. NECK: Maple 3 Piece FRETBOARD: Rosewood with Dot Inlays NUT: Bone Approx 40mm FRETS: 22 Medium SCALE: Medium 32'' PICKUPS: TV4 Humbuckers x 2 CONTROLS: 2 X Volume, 1 x Master Tone HARDWARE: Chrome BRIDGE: Std 4 saddle TUNERS: Gotoh Sealed WEIGHT: Approx 4.1 Kilos COLOUR: Deep Red FACTORY: Fugijen Japan DATE: July 2000

    I remember playing a 4003 in a shop twenty years ago and lamenting the fact that as a student I couldn't afford the £1300 or whatever it was. If only I'd known 😭 TBF, that was the last time I played one. I'm a lot better at bass now, I'd like to see what the 2024 me thinks of them.

    So what makes this "the one" compared to the ones that have come and gone? As a fan of Fender style basses I'm always intrigued as to where the differences lie, because the basic recipe has been the same for 60 years...
  25. uncle psychosis
    I've never been that "into" Spector basses but I'd make an exception for that white one owned by @Paulhauser. Oofft, beautiful.
