F/S - EHX Bass Metaphors and pedal power supply

Moving on my bass floor setup as I'm unlikely to be playing live in the near future - consists of an EHX Bass Metaphors preamp/DI box: [url="http://www.ehx.com/products/bass-metaphors"]http://www.ehx.com/products/bass-metaphors[/url] and a Rothwell Stompjuice 600mA power supply. [url="http://www.rothwellaudioproducts.co.uk/html/stompjuice.html"]http://www.rothwellaudioproducts.co.uk/html/stompjuice.html[/url]



I'd rather move these on together as I haven't got the power supply for the Bass Metaphors (which it needs, although it'll run off any standard 9V pedal supply with the right capacity); the EHX unit draws 200mA, so you've more than enough juice from the Rothwell to power a few other effects units as well as the Metaphors. Oh, there's a reverse-polarity and a 1/8 inch jack connector for esoteric pedals off the Rothwell too.

Should you want them separately it'll be fifty quid apiece; a hundred squid will get you both units along with the 5m balanced jack-to-XLR cable I've made up tied in with a 5m power cable for the StompJuice; this'll allow you to run from the balanced line output of the EHX to any power amp using the Metaphors as your sole preamp (feeding the gig soundman the XLR out from the pedal), or if you want the cable rewiring I'll put a balanced XLR on there.

What you've got here is pretty much your entire front-end on a pedal, with the options to feed an amp or not as you see fit, with power for a good few other stompboxes (there's a cable for old-school jack power sockets, as well as one for reverse-polarity from the Rothwell); I'd be keeping it like a m*****f***er, but vehicle problems preclude this...

If it's still here come the end of the week I may well take it, there's an ebay listing for a bass I'm interested in, probably can't justify them both :). Don't hold it on my account.
