[WTB] Crazy Tube Circuits Sidekick Jr. Pedal (+ XT Footswitch)

Looking for a Crazy Tube Circuits Sidekick Jr. in Excellent condition (or better) with minimal wear at a good price.

If you have the matching XT footswitch, I'd be happy to take that, as well. If you don't have the XT footswitch and only have the pedal, that's fine, too. I am not looking to buy the XT footswitch by itself.

Please post clear pics of the top, bottom, and sides along with your shipped price.

I'm based in the USA. Payment will be made using PayPal G&S.

Thanks!

Do you have a chambered ash Fender bass? What do you think of it?

Hi! I was hoping someone who owns a chambered ash Fender bass could share their thoughts on the build quality, structural integrity, and seasonal stability of the chambered ash body type.

Here's the "why," in case context matters:

I'm considering a Mod Shop Jazz Bass and am struggling a bit with some of the options. I'm sure I want a roasted maple neck and have a heavy lean toward the Vintage II '66 pickups. My main hangup is whether to go with alder, roasted ash, or chambered ash for the body.

The alder finishes I like best are almost too typical... like it wouldn't be worth going Mod Shop. It'd look great, sure! But if I go 3-tone sunburst, I feel like I might as well just get an off-the-shelf or used model at that rate. To me, Mod Shop should be unique or the cost isn't justified.

I think the roasted ash is rad but worry it might be "a bit much" if paired with a roasted maple neck (kinda "log cabin coffee table"), especially if I get a bad roll on the color tones. There's still a strong chance I go this direction; it has the potential to look amazing.

The 2-tone sunburst in chambered ash with a roasted neck seems like a home run, but I'm not really sure how comfortable I feel about a chambered bass, which is what brings me here...

  • I'm not concerned about the tone differences of chambered vs solid.
  • I'm most interested in the structural integrity and long-term durability of a chambered ash electric bass, especially since it seems like a lot of wood is removed.
  • I came across one account of a heavily chambered Telecaster where the wood around the pickguard screw holes was apparently thin enough that the screws wouldn't hold properly after removal.
  • I also live in an area with significant temperature and humidity swings, so seasonal stability is something I need to consider, as I've read that chambered instruments might have more issues in such environments.

So, if you have a chambered ash Fender bass, what do you think of it, especially if you've had several or owned one for a few years?

Thanks!
