Listing things in one page OC2- £95 *sold* Colourbox v.2 - £350 TRex bass juice - £60 *sold* PT Classic Jr -£70 All prices include postage. No box for the oc2. All pedals have had home and live use but are in great condition. Some duolock on the PT which can be removed. Might add one or two other things but this is it for now.

Yeah I had the CaliTX and loved it for what it added overall not just as a comp. I’m using three lightning boy audio transformer boxes (passive transformers) in line on my board to add in the additional special sauce. Definitely notice the difference A/B’ing with/without. I’d love to give the Euna a go but don’t have the real estate for it and the wee LBA Tx units are easily hidden under the board. I have the MkV Beta too! Good luck!

Nice. I’ll have to check one out.

I might be reading you wrong but I’m not sure ‘dynamic responsiveness’’ is a ‘built in’ feature so much as what happens when you reduce the volume control on the bass or play lighter/softer/harder.

I have an oc2 I’m offloading if that will tide you over 😀

My rule was always keep a board and PSU which could only take X amount of pedals/ power a specific number of pedals… which was tricky as my old and new preamp units were big and my old comp was a big box Cali😳 I might have piggy backed a few things back then! This way both space and power were factors. If I want to try a new pedal I really need it to do more or significantly different/ better than what it replaces. I had a bit of flourish trying some new pieces of gear out about 18 months ago but the core board has remained pretty stable for as long if not longer. Latest addition has been an octave pedal but my singers had a stroke so not sure when I’ll really get much chance to use it!

Yeah with duolock smaller is better. It’s tricky to remove if you go to Velcro proportions!

I’m selling the JHS Colourbox v.2 which Janek chose in his shootout. It’s very versatile and has transformers (2 one on the di out and a second in the 1/4”). Offers up a nice full sound and rhe eq is very flexible and the treble is voiced from 2kHz - which starts in a really nice spot for us bassists. The mid and low bands are also semi parametric so you can dial in a sound very very easily and quickly. Only I’m using a tube based DI and some passive tranformer units I’d be keeping it! DM me if you’d like to know more.

Be good to hear a solo’d demo of this one!

Bass --> FoH with no backline. What preamp pedal are you using?

This might be useful. Many differing price points etc… -
Bumping this after bumping my for sale ad and the Janek di/pre amp shoot out post. Reading back again… Great Work Luke!

Just been messing about on this again as I was asked some questions via dm and thought it might be useful to those who were looking… All eq info at the bottom of this post. Hope folks find this useful! First the treble sounds class. 2kHz at its lowest and in about the 2-4kHz range adds nice top without clack for us bassists. It can add air as the freq goes up but honestly for the bass in about 0700-1000 is where it’s at for me. Lo/Hi gain. The pedal can be clean or varying levels of low gain and break up right to the famed ‘Revolution’ guitar sound - that classic console type break up. If you have a lower output bass the hi switch can really add some oomph and width to the sound in conjunction with the Step control. I’ve a HB jazz with I think ‘original jazz’ Bart’s and this elevates that bass - it sounds great but the added sonic weight is undeniable! It competes with my Flea jazz and going back and forth I can simply flick the lo gain mode for the flea (it’s hotter output) and go high gain on the HB and it balances them nicely- all analogue and can be dialled in in seconds. Into the efx return/power amp. I used this into the fx return on my Fender rumble and it slays. Into a cab ir to FOH and you have those transformers and a magical sounding eq to have a very over-achieving eq/di. I still bring it as a back up but my main pre/di has been bombproof hence the sale. The HPF This starts at 160hz. Some initial thoughts and documentation said 60Hz but it’s 160. Don’t panic though as you can use the Pultec trick of engaging the Hpf at its lowest range (160hz) but boost the bass frequencies below or at 160hz and there’s no loss of low end. The mid control has a massive range too so you can still dial in addition mids freqs to suit your room/mix. See below for the range on the eq’s frequencies: Frequencies controlled by EQ Shift Knobs: Treble Shift - 2kHz to 30kHz – CCW lowers the center Freq, CW raises the center Freq. Middle Shift - 150Hz to 2.4kHz – CCW lowers the center Freq, CW raises the center Freq. Bass Shift - 20Hz to 440Hz – CCW lowers the center Freq, CW raises the center Freq. The Hi-Pass section is enabled by the toggle switch below the Hi-Pass knob. Just flip it up to engage the Hi-Pass knob. The HPF is a 2nd order 6dB per octave highpass filter. The -3dB cutoff freq (the frequency at which the filter starts to act) can be adjusted from 160Hz to 650Hz.

Some do sound more pleasing to my ear than other. I was able to pick out my main gigging preamp as I was making dinner and listening on headphones. There’s certainly some I’d prefer to have than others but like most things on a gig who would know only us.
