[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1382088668' post='2247660'] ... and as if by magic, it has been dispatched with a tracking number, the very day I asked for the refund! I got another apology and a small refund. [/quote] Yay! With any luck mines will be shortly then since it was just after you.

This squeezer looks and sounds interesting.... EDIT: But not the price. Ouch.

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1382051803' post='2247447'] I think Eventide could use the tech in their Pitchfactor pedal to do a pedal that is better. [/quote] Don't say that - I'm already heavily gas'ing for one!

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1382006847' post='2246577'] Well, after no response to my last email, I feel I have no choice but to cancel the order. I've asked for a full refund. It's especially annoying as I had bought a new power supply (one spot) and patch leads (OBBM) based on this promise of delivery. :-( [/quote] I've not had a reply back with my request of it being shipped before the 25th...

I actually regret selling mine. I've used various synth pedals - but the Deep Impact nailed everything I wanted. Got the MarkBass one now, with a the BSW also. IMO as much as I love(d) it, the kinda money is mad. Saying that, I did sell mine for about 475 delivered. Not that long ago neither. I'm such a capitalist scumbag

[quote name='johnDeereJack' timestamp='1382002600' post='2246494'] Spencer at 3Leaf has a new fuzz called 'You're Doom' coming out. Here's his post on TB: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f36/3leaf-audio-club-episode-2-a-957647/index25.html#post14996868"]http://www.talkbass....ml#post14996868[/url] [i]"[color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]It's essentially the opposite of the Duality. Here's how I look at them: The Duality takes traditional idea of a fuzz and executes it in a totally unique way, while the You're Doom turns the idea of a fuzz on its head.[/font][/color][/i] [i][color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]You're Doom responds to your playing dynamics. You're Doom plays well with other pedals and doesn't care if your bass is active or passive. You're Doom sounds like a square wave came straight from your pickups.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]It's called a "dynamic harmonic device" because it's just that - extremely sensitive to dynamics. You can "play it" the way you would play an envelope filter or a compressor."[/font][/color][/i] [size=4]Too many nice pedals coming out..![/size] [/quote] I like the sound of this too. Sounds like it'll be a right dirty bugger.

Ohhhh can't wait for clips!

[quote name='oggiesnr' timestamp='1381558305' post='2240593'] Unless you really must have the item then I think it's refund time, if you must have it then you'll just have to wait it out. I also agree it's totally unacceptable, if they're not meeting deadlines it's their responsibility to inform you, it shouldn't be your job to hassle. Steve [/quote] I've said I want them shipped by the 25th. If not, i want the refund. Can no longer say i'd refer them. Pedals are good but this lead time/constantly being told they'll be shipped that week is mental. All caused by them putting another unit into production...

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1381517874' post='2240290'] Just means I can't paint it though. lol [/quote] Ahahahahahah!

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1381502691' post='2239985'] It is a chunk of alder (a bit of scrap from WoodyRATM's bass actually) which is cut slightly smaller than the hole, then padded out to a tight fit with felt strips for protection. I then split it and hinged it and found a gate hook in my odds and sods tin for the lock. As an original concept, I'm quite chuffed with the idea. With it's dual function, even more so. [/quote] Purple Beastie saves the day in the end haha! Looks amazing dude. I'll see it in action proper on the 31st.

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1381502960' post='2239990'] Thanks. It's Utile... a relative of mahogany. Here are our (revised) tour dates. We also have a wee Scottish tour at the start of Nov. [/quote] I love how you go London to Stoney!

[quote name='marcus bell' timestamp='1381508907' post='2240116'] just thought it looked pretty to be honest, im not really looking to buy just yet anyways, the main aim is to eventually get a kingbass artist again, but saving up around 1500 for a second hand bass seems a million miles away if im honest... sucks to be poor [/quote] Natural Warwicks are very nice on the eyes I had a lovely one in a stained blue. Was lovely!

[quote name='wilsc89' timestamp='1380237110' post='2222819'] I used to do all my dropped tunings on a 5 string, why retune when you can just play the 3rd fret instead on the B. Ultimate in laziness. Also seemed to make It sound, I suppose tighter would be the best way to describe it... [/quote] What about those who either a ) don't own a 5 string b ) don't get on with them Xtenders are great. Need one for my Purple Beastie

I don't think these would work on pedalboards?

Pricey for a Rockbass...wow....

[quote name='tommorichards' timestamp='1381496245' post='2239870'] higher ground? [/quote] I was going to suggest that too. Every bugger and their gran always goes "Oh you're a bass player - can you play higher ground?"

[quote name='mildmanofrock' timestamp='1381491152' post='2239755'] It's not just Barefaced that I see coming up in the classified either. There seems to be an equal number - if not more of Aguilar, Markbass, Mesa Boogie and the like. Bassplayers seem to overthink their gear. [/quote] We also like trying new toys On topic:- Try some BF cabs before selling yours, see if they fit your sound etc. Personally (note that word!) I love my BF cab, I think it looks lovely, sounds brilliant with my setup and doesn't make my eyes water when I've to move the bloody thing. I do prefer the cloth grill though. But I've always liked the silvery look - even with the Ampeg cabs. If you like them, and you feel they could replace the Bergs (I've only used the 610 once and it was brilliant!) then order a BF cab. If not, and you're not into the sound; keep the bergs and be a happy camper [/thread] also - if you're ever this far up the road, more than welcome to try the S12T/V. I'd assume there are many closer though!

[quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1381456577' post='2239468'] Edster, any idea where to go for a setup in Glasgow? I only know Strung Out do it for £65 but that's not including your new strings. £80-£85 seems a bit steep to me, but I don't know how that compares to other places. [/quote] If you're willing to travel to Aberdeen, Give Rich (Ou7shined) on here a shout. Great setup and he'll be able to look at the neck what not. My bass has a thicker neck than my lakland but still insanely (if not more) comfortable to play - he made the neck

I've sent another email to find out if I can expect these or not.

[quote name='eude' timestamp='1381415505' post='2238761'] Hey Tom, thanks for chiming in, much appreciated! I'll look out for a secondhand LS-2 then. Cheers, Eude [/quote] Give it a few weeks - you can get mine hahah

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1381413584' post='2238716'] So did I, but as you can see, it didn't happen [/quote] That's pretty shady.

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1381412237' post='2238685'] I know who you are on about, and get to the back of the queue, I ordered mine before you :-D Mine was ordered on 1st Aug with a 3-4 week promised timeframe. He has been replying to emails : 2/9 - "Sorry, it will be shipped quite soon" 17/9 - "Sorry, shipping today" 3/10 - lots of apologies, an offer of a refund or shipping in the next week. I went for the latter. Still waiting...... [/quote] Hang on - thought yours was shipped already?
