  1. Just added a matamp GT150 to my rig! Haven't valved it yet but will do later tonight. Switchable power on the back from 150w to 75w and custom face plate. Can't wait to get it cranked. As ever the guys at matamp have been ace. Top top people.
  2. Small changes to my board, but I dropped the reverb and just use the spring in the volante. I want to use complex reverb pedals but having been through a load, I'm not sure they ever quite work for me properly in my bands context. Not sure how many people use a treble booster here, but the war pig is brilliant. I used it through a cranked amp the other night and it really was wonderful. Anyway, this will be my board for a while now. I don't use the G3 to its fullest, but it opens the volante up for me and makes transitions really easy. I still kinda feel my boards a bit big in footprint....ah well. Stick for now 🙂
  3. Psu adaptor for the gigrig power solution. Supports high current pedals. I'm excellent condition. Happy to post, will take PayPal /bank transfer. Collection from Rushden, or I pass bedford and Stevenage a fair bit. Blurb: The GigRig TimeLord delivers the optimum current to your Strymon digital effects pedals, as well as your Whammy 5. Hear your premium stompboxes the way they were intended to sound. This follows the Distributor in the power supply chain, which provides up to 5 amps of current to all connected adaptors. The idea behind The GigRig power supply is to get the best out of your pedals in a way no other PSU could do. Specifications POWER - 9v in / 9v 550 mA Isolated out PLUG - 2.1mm Centre Neg WEIGHT - 0.05kg / 0.1lbs DIMENSIONS - 8cm x 2cm x 4cm / 3.15" x 0.79" x 1.57"
  4. Managed to have a loud rehearsal tonight as our singer couldn't get fuel...so we took advantage. So nice to open the amp up properly with a lot of speakers. Tonal nirvana for 2.5 hours.
  5. Been on and off of my board for years. In good condition, Velcro on the bottom. Great tool for home noodling, writing or drone/ambient. Looking for cleared funds and happy to post. Any questions drop me a line. Cheers

  6. Serious question, how do you use this set up? ..cabs..application...bi amping etc etc. What a rack!!
  7. Played my first gig out of lockdown with Gévaudan, with the great honour of sharing a stage with @simon88wilson's band Black Atlas during the charity Weekender in Baldock. Top band they are and whilst we're on tone, Si's absolutely filled the place. So much groove and headbanging to those guys. Well worth checking out. I had definitely forgotten a number of things since regular pre lockdown gigging...speed of set up, gig fitness, how dark the stage is, how small lighting provides even more blind spots and small stage spaces. great to be making some racket again and feel like it dated the cobwebs off ahead our next outing in October.
  8. Well I'm sad to report that apparently they don't anymore. Which is baffling as they did 2 nights ago.
  9. Ahhhh! I forgot....I'll get one when I get home sorry.
  10. Yes...I'll get a pic in a few mins
  11. Selling as I've found this is waaay too much reverb for my apparent need. The R1 is such an easy pedal to use, dial in and save presets. Small footprint, full midi capability and nice latch function. I don't think there's many (if any) pedals out there with this power and footprint. There's Velcro on the bottom but in great condition with box and all the gubbins. Owned from new for the last 3 months or so. Any questions drop me a line, happy to post by agreement, feedback in the feedback thread. Cheers Programs Spring - The Spring program emulates an excited spring reverb commonly found in tube amps with loads of transducing drip. Easily go from subtle to full-on surf rock. Experiment with the decay knob to get more than average amounts of reverb not found in traditional amp spring reverb tanks. X knob adds a warm grit to the reverb decay. Hall - The Hall program provides the acoustics of large live sound spaces like concert halls to arenas. Longer decays and higher X knob settings result in a massive wash of ambiance. Shorter decay and lower X settings allow for a more intimate reverb expression. X knob controls the room's size; smaller at lower settings to larger room sizes as you increase X. Plate – The Plate program emulates a smooth analog plate reverb with nice even diffusion inspired by famous plates like the EMT 140. X knob adds in gentle warm grit to the front end of the program simulating driving a hot signal into the plate. BFR - BFR is a no holds barred, big, f____, reverb. This is more than a giant arena reverb. It's a hall-esque reverb with rich and lush decay in a vast cavern filled with choirs of angels. X knob controls the amount of diffusion applied to the multi-tap delays used to form the program. At lower X settings, you'll hear these delays bouncing around for a more textured sound. As you increase the X knob, the delays are diffused, creating a smooth texture, and lifting your riffs and chords into the atmosphere. See ya. RFRCT (Refract) - The RFRCT program allows for lovely, charming, and glitch-like textures hovering over a largely diffused reverb. The Rate controls on RFRCT change how often the glitch effects occur while Depth controls the overall volume of the glitch effect. X knob is used to shape the tone of the glitch effect. At zero, the glitch effect will have a lo-fi, almost tape-like sound to them. Increasing the X knob brightens these elements with more pristine details. Air - The Air program offers a larger diffused reverb with a subtle shimmer but has a more “crisp” clarity to its decay. Explore slow-building sounds that don’t get in the way of your playing. Air complements keys and synths as well. X knob controls the amount of the wind and shimmer elements in the Air program. At zero the effect will be off. Turning clockwise will increase the volume of the air effect.
  12. Dropped to £350 now Hi, I acquired this in a trade about a year or so ago....might be longer as lockdown seems to skew my memory these days. Since owning it, I've used it at home only for practice and a bit of home recording. It's got a few superficial marks that I've tried to capture, but in great working order and sounds really really nice. Reason for the sale is I'm looking to get another all valver. Sale includes the amp, soft case and user manual. Features are noted below together with a few pics. I can meet in and around Wellingborough, bedford, Stevenage areas. Also happy to post subject to agreeing the rate and method. Any questions drop me a line. I have feedback in the feedback thread. Cheers FEATURES •STM 900 - 500 Watts @ 8 ohms; 900 Watts @ 4 ohms • SMPS and Class D power amplifier design • Class A Six Stage Tube Preamp (3 x 12AX7A Tubes) • Modified Passive Baxandall EQ for the Lows and Highs • Active Tube Driven Mid EQ • Selectable 3-Position Mid Frequencies: 220, 600, 2.5K HZ • Input Mute • Hi Gain switch • Master Volume • 3DPM™ Power Management • Patent Pending P.H.A.T topology • Full Direct Output Interface • Effects Loop • Headphone Input • Aux.

  13. Matamp is my personal first choice. UK based, hand built and customisable. Hiwatt are also still in production I believe on the higher cost end of things. I think bugera still offer an SVT equivalent? (I might be off the pace on that though). In addition to the above, Traynor are a Canadian brand that pop up from time to time. Not sure if you can buy new still and Verellen (US based) I think have just made the decision to stop production. Marshall vba400 is a Goliath but only a few about second hand. Aguilar have some second hand market valve offerings, as does sadowsky (sa200 - pretty rare). There's some amazing trace Elliot heads in the used section still I think as well, and I think Peavy did a valve amp run a few years back. Vintage heads are still worth a look with big iron, depending on how loud you need them...soundcity, selmer, burman, sunn, etc. What features, sound and volume are you after?
  14. Latest iteration....my fuzz is still under discussion in my head...otherwise this is covering everything I need at the mo and nearly settled I think for the current album writing
  15. Tentatively listing this...no I'm not I'm keeping it because I really like it so no-one can buy it!!! I love the pedal but it hasn't pushed out my Wizard fuzz even though it gets really, really close. I'll no doubt pick one up again when cash is a little less tight. Great condition, all the apparel included. Velcro on bottom. I had it on my board for a few months and it's had a bit of home use. The clean blend is wonderful and there's a tonne of drive sounds all the way up to fuzz in here. Pairs really well with both tube and solid state heads. Used and endorsed by high on fire bassist Jeff Matz. Any questions let me know, manufacture blurb below the pics Cheers MBD2 is the long awaited follow up to our original MBD-1 MOSFET Bass Distortion. The heart of the MBD2 the same bass-loving distortion as the original, but with a few enhancements customers begged for (and, up until recently, we’ve looked down from our chunky enclosure high horse and said, “No”). Those enhancements include a smaller enclosure (with top-jacks of course!), an external boost switch capable of adding 20dB of gain to transport the internal MOSFETs into Valhalla, silent bypass switching for quiet stages (what are those?), and of course, a sexy new look. This compact evolution of the MBD circuit can fit on smaller boards so you no longer have to decide between crushing bass distortion and your Altoids tin.
  16. Awesome recording interface to get your signal from your instrument to your DAW. Very simple plug and play and delivers outstanding crystal clear results. Reason for sale is I've expanded my home set up. Price includes postage, and net of any fees. Unit is in pristine condition comes with USB cable. Any questions drop me a line. Thanks
  17. Good luck with the sale. This is probably my favourite pedal on my board at the moment. No need for two sadly. Wonderful wonderful delay in my opinion. ✌️
  18. That's why I'd like a smaller board....to stop that kinda talk!! 😂 ....but there's always a cab SIM/DI or put the freeze back on for a laugh....
  19. I really like it. I tend to live in the higher end of drive distortion to fuzz most of the time. The clean blend on this sounds really nice (it's a fully integrated sound where many I feel you can hear a split in signal...buzz over the top) - I think Dunwich amps helped in the design - and there is spades and spades of low end available. It can go from light drive to fuzz, but I think it shines on heavy overdrive/ distortion territory. There's some great shaping ability with gain boost and low end saturation. Previous drives that I liked and had for a long period include the mountainking megalith, cog tarkin. So I'm not in to the light drive camp as my amp does that duty. I've flipped a load of other fuzzes and distortions but I think this will stay for a good while on my board. Jeff Matz used one on a high on fire record with his verellen, but I think it has broad scope for a plethora of styles and tones.
  20. Few updates to this incarnation. I've dropped the h9 as it was waaay too many effects for my band and needs and I ended up after much exploration using only the reverb. So I decided to replace it with the walrus Audio R1 which so far, so good - small footprint, midi enabled, nice latch function and the algorithms so far feel like they fit my goals. I've also added a treble booster - War Pig by mustard effects. Sounds glorious through my matamp. I need to sort the expression control still as haven't programmed that properly yet, and the cabling has gone from as good as I could do it (shoddy) to a car crash! Im really keen to try and get this into a smaller board but probably won't manage it. Still, happy with the sounds and layers its delivering!
  21. Now £380 including postage In great condition. Velcro has been removed. There's a small chip in the paint where one of the feet goes. I'm looking at moving this on as it's far more pedal than I need. Comes boxed, with psu, and all the gubbins. It is an original Max, not upgraded/ algorithms purchased over time to max it out, so it comes with ALL the algorithms available including the H9 dedicated. The app is brilliantly simple and intuitive. Midi is really straight forward and the soundscapes you can create are amazing. Collection preferred either local or I get to Stevenage, Bedford, shefford areas for a meet up. Happy to post at agreed cost and method. Happy to take PayPal but would need fees covering please. I also have a gigrig evenflo power adaptor available if you're running that power set up. Price to be agreed. Drop me a line with any queries, bit more info below. Thanks for looking. https://www.eventideaudio.com/products/stompboxes/multi-effect-processor/h9-max The H9 Max can run all of the effect algorithms from our TimeFactor (delay), ModFactor (modulation), PitchFactor (pitch shifting), and Space (reverb) pedals as well as some created just for the H9. True analog bypass Real-time MIDI control Power supply included MIDI via DIN and USB Fast accurate tuner included Expression pedal and AUX footswitch input Sync to the beat with tap tempo or MIDI 52 EFFECTS ALGORITHMS There are 52 effect algorithms, and more than 500 presets available for H9 that include reverbs, delays, pitch shifting, chorus, distortion and everything in between.
  22. My guitarist would absolutely love your taste in amp brand! Nice looking rig ✌️
  23. Sweet!! I'll listen out for you at soundarc...shouldn't be difficult to miss! Are you running the dod into the megalith? Still got a hankering to try that pedal....but happy with my drive section at the moment.
