Betteridge's law of headlines applied to thread titles?

I had to look that one up ha ha 😄

… I’ve forwarded this onto the real shop to see if they know about it!!

Yeah, I think I’ll give it a miss lol!!

the prices are bonkers, they seem too good to be true tbh!!

…. getting a Pigtronix Gatekeeper Micro from Andy asap. It’s one sort of pedal that I don’t own yet. Not really into drives that much, maybe it’s because of the inherent noise lol.

I’ll report back with my findings 👍🏻

... it's been a bit quiet on here of late. I think the pedals might be getting a bit bored 😜

nice, they do indeed look like the more expensive variants. Any pics of the pre at all?

What's the flavour of this? I have the Crimson Red and it's quite delicious for an old school thump. 

… it has a drive element so can break up if wanted/needed. These two I’d say are more similar to each other than either the Silver Peg or Blue 360. I’ve used both the red and green gigging in a Motown band. With the red I can’t get any break up, but easily done with the green.

Hey all, recently bought a Sfx Microthumpinator off Gerry. All went well and would happily deal with again no problem. Peace.

Makes me chuckle a little how many Compact Bass pedals have popped up since this was announced, prices not much less than new.  GAS is a terrible thing!  

… I did mention that at the start of the thread lol! Think the V2 are around £300 or so new, so a V1 for £200 is ok. I’m always surprised how some pedals hold their used values so well.

Thing is I’ll probably end up getting a V2 alongside the V1 I already have at some point lol, I think I like collecting comps 😆

… just a reminder the Beta Bass Overdrive is the Mk 2 version, they’re lovey pedals (I have two of them 😎).

GLWTS.

Just bought a chorus pedal from Stu for a friend. All good thanks 👍🏻

Any thoughts anyone? In a live mix it’d be hard to tell the difference. Recording in a studio would be fine to tell the nuisances. Well, it could also be my cloth ears lol 😂 

…least they seem to have a plan!!

PM’d for a mate 👍🏻

… I know at some point I’ll end up getting one, to add to the collection 😆

… the fact you can use it as a headphone amp is a complete win in my book 👌

Hey all, just bought Nigel’s compressor  pedal. Great process, questions answered promptly and very well packaged and quickly sent (one of the fastest BC transactions from start to finish I think). Wouldn’t hesitate to deal with again, Great BCer 👍🏻

… how long did it take you to do that detailing on the Spectracomp Ped? Also did you need to get authorisation from the TCESCAS 😆 ?

... we should start an appreciation society for it: TCESCAS, has a ring to it lol 😆

Yeah, that’s why I got a few. Someday I’ll try to get to grips with the finer points, but I won’t hold my breath lol!
