    NPD - filter fun

    AndyTravis replied to ped's topic in Effects

    I had the FX25b (about 3 of them) - I preferred the QTron, but wish I’d kept the last FX25b as a variation on sound - much more “quack” than anything I’ve had. Current MXR Auto Q seems to do a bit of both, so I’ll live.

    Agree on G&L. Musicman have upset me, I’m not talking to them 😂

    Bought a few shandies in. Also bought a bass on the same night and then I’ve gone and bought a preamp pedal, and a pedalboard and looking for an overdrive and tuner pedal… I need to top the pot back up because I have an impending refinish to pay for. Lovely LR baggs Preamp with inbuilt tuner. Solid top, brand new Elixir strings just on it, and some spares in the included padded bag which are just standard 80/20 bronze. Shipping will be risky. I’d prefer collection or a ‘man and van’ collection which would be £50 in UK. They’re £450 new, the chap I got this from had had it a month and couldn’t get his head around the deep sound and stretch of the neck compared to his standard guitar. As a bass player…it’s a doddle to get around on.

    nah, much like the orange bb. This just stays.

    That’s stunning.

    This is my “stingray” comes in at just over 7lbs. Unfortunately, they’re scarce as can be…took me 20 years to find one.

    Gav has recently bought a Yamaha BB from me. It was brisk, and lovely. I’ll stop now, otherwise he’ll rip his pants.

    Never owned a G&L… Which is a regret. and a surprise as I’ve had millions of fender and musicman basses… I thought it may have been this one…
  14. AndyTravis
    And I’m going to say…1981 L-1000
  15. AndyTravis
    It’s a G&L… the dot on the back of the head tells me that…
  16. AndyTravis
    It’s a bit bigger than that. 27” scale B-b it’s like a super jumbo jumbo
  17. AndyTravis
    Oh well. We’re now the proud owners of a baritone. I had a band get together at the house yesterday. Drank my body weight in Elvis Juice and agreed to buy one from A local Facebook seller

    Zombie thread: just bought one of these 😂
  19. AndyTravis
    Well, there’s a “message Trav” option…I’m booking a courier for the white one to collect Monday…the red one could be with you on Tuesday. I’ve got boxes and bubble wrap everywhere 😂😉
  20. AndyTravis
    Having a nightmare getting an old bass back… it’s in South Wales, guy won’t trust couriers… my man and van can’t do it. really stuck. It’s a 4 hour drive for me each way. is anyone near who would be amenable to collect - and wait for a courier to collect? happy to ship boxes etc and packing materials. I just can’t drag the kids out for 8 hours in the car without a week long holiday being involved…

    About 10 years ago was bottom (they didn’t do a 224x) - equivalent model is 434 these days. White is sold. Red still available

    Just sat messaging @bagsieblue welling up, some amazing stories. “Kermit” the bright metallic green Ford Ka, covered in bird poop. And the subsequent revolving door of Mini’s - had nowt but trouble with them, but kept on buying them! Nearly bought mine actually 😂 Our last deal was a few months ago - he came to my rehearsal space, the sat nav took him to a separate car park…he was rarely late. Phone rings… ”Andy. Martin…er…anybody home?” He really was a bloody great bloke. The world is going to be a bit less fun. Mrs T has just relayed a story - he was finishing his shift one evening and popped by Iris’ ward - “hiya Mrs T, do you need anything from the shop before I get off” - just a brilliant person. He didn’t have to do that. Humpf. Really sad.

    Will miss this ”MB1 😎 - Local Bump…”

    FFS! Martin and I go back about 10 years!! We bought and sold each other so much gear it was a borderline joke. When we had our youngest in hospital (Martin was a hospital Porter), he was there - and brought his left field humour to keep us going - he checked in with Jen and I as well as saying hello to family and the kids. “I’m yer dads mate…I buy all the bass stuff he regrets” 😂 What a bloody awful shame. gutted.

    Yeah. But they also elected to make the 424/1024/2024 in black/burst/white - so from a minor distance the £400/£800 and £2000 model all looked the same… They get so much right, and so much wrong. the Pacifica guitars get some weird and wonderful colours/flame tops etc… bass land…Nope.
