Dood Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I bought this swiss army knife pedal for my 'project rig' before I took delivery of my Hartke gear. Poor ole thing made it to a psuedo pedal board temporarily - but I soon took it off again as I didn't need it. The pedal is in it's original bags and Tech 21 'tin', with all instructions, protective plastic cover and even the sticker is unused!!! The pedal will work as a complete preamp solution straight in to a power amp - and certainly does 'BDDI' as well - and a whole lot more. Definitely a swiss army knife! £180 INC delivery Price reflects condition. [url="http://www.tech21nyc.com/products/sansamp/paradriverdi.html"]http://www.tech21nyc.com/products/sansamp/paradriverdi.html[/url] [quote]This floor version of our RPM rackmount provides the same detailed tone shaping possibilities for any signal source. It is particularly useful with acoustic, electric and bass guitars, and upright bass, either direct to a mixing console or with an instrument amplifier. The Para Driver DI gives your instrument a natural warmth and presence, as if miking it through a tube pre-amp. The SansAmp circuitry eliminates the harsh, unnatural harmonics of piezo pickups, while the Drive control offers some tasteful edge -- just a little or over-the-top. Actual size: 4.5” x 3.5” x 1.5” Weight: 12 oz. Phantom power operable, or utilizes an optional 9V DC power supply (Tech 21 Model # DC2), or 9V battery (not included). Sample Settings Included in the Owner's Manual for: • Acoustic Guitar • Mid-Boost Guitar • Champ® • Money for Nothing • Sparkle Electric Guitar • Schenker • Deep Tube Bass • SVT® Bass • Jaco Bass • Lead Bass • Upright Bass • Active Bass Simulator • Electric Violin • Clean Boost • Electric Piano • Hammond® Organ • Hip-Hop Drums • Kick Drums • Snare Drum • Stomp Box (Compressor) Direct-Clean • Stomp Box (Distortion) Direct-Rock • Stomp Box (Distortion) Direct-Metal[/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 Cheers Steve ! I'm having a think about any trades I fancy too. I'll post a list if there's anything that springs to mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 Trade bait: (an ongoing list) Mark Bass F1 maybe F500 - I foolishly sold mine - but it makes a brilliant practice amp. Will also entertain other 1u high amps - maybe something like an LMK. IF the price is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 In answer to a question I had recently about the Para Driver - Yes, it makes a great Bass preamp - but can be used for a whole host of other instruments too. Here are some YouTube videos: YES! Mine DOES come with the tastey TECH 21 Black tin as seen in the videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime_BASS Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Great peace of kit. Very versatile. Took mine to a gig, but didn't get to use it, our guitarist did instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budget bassist Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Great bit of kit this, I had one for a while, it had to go though, as i just didn't have enough headroom with the output of my warwick. Wish I still had it now I have a passive in my arsenal again! Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
