Fairfield Barbershop Millenium Overdrive £120

[adamg67]

So, I am being strict with myself now and selling things that just aren't getting used, even if I like them. That applies to this pedal, it's a Fairfield Barbershop Millenium, like this: [url="http://fairfieldcircuitry.com/products/the-barbershop"]http://fairfieldcirc.../the-barbershop[/url]

It's in great condition, with its original box and instructions.

These pedals work really well on bass, really transparent with no loss of low end or change in tone, just the overdrive coming in on top. The drive is what I would call rough, in a good way, which I think is what makes this pedal a bit different to some of the others.

There don't seem to be many decent demos (there are a couple that make the pedal sound pretty bad) so I've tried to do a quick one of what it sounds like on my bass, Ibanez 456 with flat wounds through a Sansamp in Ampeg mode: [url="https://soundcloud.com/adamgx/barbershop-1/s-5syeU"]https://soundcloud.c...rshop-1/s-5syeU[/url]

The demo is all with the tone switch central, ie no high cut, but there are 2 high cut settings as well for a dark sound. It's just a quick run through the sounds I was using with it. Sorry about the very boring bass line!

Looking for £110 posted in the UK.

Quick bump for a box of bassy dirtiness.

It's in BD20 if anyone wants to collect, I will knock off the postage cost.

Final price drop, £110 posted, otherwise I might try it on the ebay as it's good for guitar as well.

I've just tried this on my guitar, and it is no longer for sale! Yes, it keeps the bottom end, but it sounds much rougher on bass, and much smoother (but not in a dodgy hair metal way) on the guitar, really nice sound. I've got it running into an Amplitube Orange amp and it sounds amazing, even with a pitch shift (after the barbershop).
