FS Tube Works Blue Tube

[Kev]

Okay, i know this is a fast turnaround even for me, but i bought it as an 'always on' pedal to warm up my tone with a bit of valve action, but i think i actually prefer my Mark Bass head clean, so thinking of trading this one for something else.

Lovely little USA pedal, designed by Butler, who also made the Tube Driver of David Gilmour Fame. This pedal has a very similar design too.

No low end loss at all, sounds very nice at low gain, bit too harsh with gain cranked for me. To be honest if i put a 12AU7 in this instead of the 12AX7 i would probably prefer it, but not sure if i can be bothered! Very quiet for a valve pedal, providing you have decent shielded cables. Has had its foot switch replaced at some point.

In great condition and even comes with the original instructions and warranty card

Only bought from ahpook last week, sure he wont mind me stealing his photo:

Trade only for now, if i ask for cash it will just be spend on beer and curry so id rather see if anyone has anything to trade! May end up keeping it and giving it a new valve if nothing interesting comes along...

Just so we know what value pedal you're after, how much would a theoretical sale price be?

[jonsparrow91]

Well I've got a Weeping Demon Wah, if that sort of thing interests you?

[BTS_Spacebass]

Got a boss SYB-5 I would trade for it?

Could be interested, i have a concern though but will discuss via pm

Mulling over a couple offers but still available!

[Kev]

Really suprised at the lack of interest here. This pedal is not too far away from the sound quality of my old Mesa bottle rocket, which I sold for around 4 times what I bought this one for....

[Kev]

Okay, cash it is then.

Don't wanna lose a penny on this as it's a valve pedal for pocket money

£35 plus shipping

[Kev]

Lack of interest has amazed me on this one

This will probably go on eBay next week

[tayste_2000]

How much for shipping?

[Kev]

Il have a little look at the box it was sent to me in tonight when I get in and see what it says, I imagine it will be around the £3 mark

[Kev]

Heavier than i thought, £5.24 royal mail first class recorded.

[BTS_Spacebass]

Has this gone yet?

[Kev]

Nope, although i have a Boss ME8B on the way so im not sure il need to invest in an syb-5 now, sorry dude
