  1. Interested to see this too Si
  2. Oh man, this with D'addario flats will be awesome. Don't tempt me, I only just got down to 3 basses haha. I had a black/black/rosewood E series a few years ago (the serial prefix after SQ), and it was just brilliant, probably one of my very very few regretted sales. This will be an awesome P-bass for someone! Si

    [quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1465566325' post='3069336'] Those Xotics look amázing! How do they sound? [/quote] Really great to my ears, musical and intuitive preamp, great passive sound, I'm very happy Si
  4. [quote name='Darkglass' timestamp='1465630584' post='3069709'] Thanks! We'll start shipping these early next month! This one's a tad clearer and tighter in the low end. I just regret naming these series "Vintage". The Deluxe 2 and now the Ultra can get some pretty classic sounds but they can also go super aggressive. I'm mostly off forums these days (working on the amplifier and some other, perhaps cooler stuff) but I really look forward hearing what you guys think about this pedal. Regards, Doug. [/quote] I did think it sounded like it could go more aggressive than the standard VMT. Sounds great man!! Si
  5. I just finished up recording an album at home for a singer, I simply plugged my Precision with flats into one of our (I work for Focusrite) Clarett 2Pres and it sounded fantastic. This isn't a sales pitch at all, but just an example of getting the right instrument, strings and interface for the project you're doing, and you don't need much else. When I sent the completely un-produced stems to the mix engineer, he commented that all he needed to do was to put on a light compressor on them and it sat in the track wonderfully. Si
  6. Silly that this is still here, beautiful bass (with a really comfortable neck might I add) for not much money at all! Si
  7. What's the budget? Because if you really want to commit to a travel bass, then the Fodera Imperial Mini-MG would be great........and empty your bank account lol: http://fodera.com/imperial-mini-mg Si

    Here's my Xotic XJ-1T 5 'Lightweight' [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/23hkv4l.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/34j9f2v.jpg[/IMG] Si
  9. Find a retailer who has one in stock, and ask the weight?! I don't think you're going to get an accurate general answer simply based on how many they make, best to base it on the actual instrument you might buy. Si
  10. Yeah, interesting, that goes way more distorted than the standard vintage right? Si
  11. [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1465276368' post='3066655'] Mine. We hooked it up on it's own with different leads and power supplies and no dice. Not tried it back at home, but I should imagine it will be going back. [/quote] Weird, not heard of DG Pedals going down before. Hope you get it sorted Si
  12. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1465246448' post='3066530'] I keep getting visions of that Darkglass suddenly coming to life and emitting the most appalling sounds ... [/quote] Who's was that after all? Is it back working or had it genuinely died? Si
  13. Another fantastic and successful bash! Thanks to Mick and all involved in organising it. Also, if you had photos taken by my dad, please can you drop me a quick pm so I know who has what coming. See you all next year! Si
  14. A couple of interested parties, but still for sale currently Si
  15. Cheers guys, will check them out Si
  16. Hi all, Does anyone have any recommendations for fretboard stickers? Specfically after some clay dot style markers, although would settle for MoP style too. Many thanks Si
  17. This is the same as mine (albeit different paint job and fingerboard wood) and I love it. Someone grab a bargain, these Lightweight XJs are lovely! Si
  18. Yeah I'd put Maruszczyks on par with Masterbuilt Fenders I think. Si
  19. I have an XJ-1T 5, albeit the 'Lightweight' model, and they're just bloody lovely GLWTS Si
  20. [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1464692109' post='3061408'] Really need to see and play one of these up close. I'm guessing a retail deal would put them around £1300 plus... and that puts them in another league..? [/quote] Mine will be at the Herts Bass Bash if you're thinking of coming Si
  21. It seems that Adrians prices have gone up a little, but still worth it in my mind. I asked for Dark Rosewood on my build too, isn't as dark as ebony, just looks like nice rosewood after a good oiling. Si
  22. Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm sure it will go to a good home, slow market or not, it's just waiting for the right player It will be at the Herts Bass Bash in Hatfield this coming Sunday if anyone wants to check it out. Cheers Si
  23. Meh Just looks like a Carvin, which is what it is essentially Si
  24. [quote name='austinrick' timestamp='1464382670' post='3059137'] ....Arrived perfect, set up and tuned a 1/2 step flat. [/quote] So it arrived out of tune Si
