  1. There does not appear to be any facility to add an extension cab to these 🤷‍♂️
  2. Yes, but the KISS ‘End Of The Road’ Tour has been going on for years 😎. I wish you all the best for the future 👍
  3. The specs are on there. In the main menu, click ‘Information’, then ‘Specifications’.
  4. Oh. That's disappointing on more than one level.
  5. Nice. I like that. Well done Rich 👏👏
  6. I maybe wrong and I hope I am for your sake, but I can’t see a solicitor finding a legal way forward with this after so long. Wood is a natural product and is susceptible to temperature and humidity. Unless there an obvious fault with the construction, the luthier has a few avenues of defence in his favour I would think. I had a neck issue with a brand new Fender Flea ‘61 that became apparent just after the warranty expired. I had a hell on earths job getting any action and it was clear that the resolution was an act of good will rather than anything else.
  7. It's between the Stingray and the Celinder for me. I'll go Stingray as I love 'em 😎
  8. Sold my Line 6 G75 to Rick. Excellent guy to deal with. Prompt payment and great comms. Thoroughly recommended. Thanks again.
  9. Sold my Handbox R-400 amp to Mike. A total pleasure to deal with throughout. Thoroughly recommended. Thanks again 👍
  10. Mick also bought another couple of Stingrays from me. Another perfect transaction from a great buyer. Thanks again 👍
  11. Sold a Line 6 transmitter pack to Ade. Prompt payment and a pleasure to do business with. Thanks again 👍
  12. Dave bought my Limelight John Deacon Precision. As much as I was sad to see it go, it’s gone to a very good home indeed. I would have no hesitation in dealing with Dave again. Thoroughly recommended.
  13. Absolutely. My favourite is Tejas, but Eliminator was a huge success for them.
  14. ….oh, and barring his first three solo albums, all of Peter Gabriel’s solo material including So was released after his 30th.
  15. All of ZZ Top were over 30 when they recorded Eliminator.
  16. One of the most comprehensive rebuttals that springs to mind is Frank Zappa. He turned 30 in December 1970 with Over-nite Sensation, Apostrophe, Joe’s Garage I, II & III and many others ahead of him.
  17. This is where I’ve found platforms like JamKazam most useful. My most recent band is a rock covers affair. We’ve put together three x 1 hour sets and have been in a room together twice since we started last year. Our first gig is in three weeks time. As @ambientsays, the learning is done beforehand. We use JamKazam to get to the next stage which is making sure we’re all playing the right thing at the same time and we then use our valuable rehearsal room time for the final polish. It’s the first time I’ve been down this route and it does seem to work very well. We had a quick practice on line last night, running through the most problematic songs (Rush/The Who/Genesis) for an hour or so and then switched off when we were done. So yes, I think it can work for you, it just depends on which approach you take. Accepted it can be tricky if you can only rehearse face to face, but JK and the like are a useful alternative.
  18. Sounds like a cool gig you’ve landed yourself 👏👏👏👏 I get occasional dep work with a Ska band and it’s just nice to go out and play material you don’t usually play. Hope it all works out for you 👍
  19. I wasn’t having a dig at you personally, I just don’t get the commission thing. I can understand some people not wanting to use eBay and some also have an aversion to Facebook, but there’s not much that won’t sell on Reverb. But hey, it’s your money. I have no clue what the EBMM comment is about 🤷‍♂️
  20. The irony being that if it did now sell as a resulting of you mentioning it, you would still be paying 20% to BD instead of £7 or whatever it now is to Basschat. Each to their own of course, but I really can’t get my head around this giving 20% to a third party seller. With a bit of effort and patience, I’ve managed to sell every bass I’ve ever advertised either here or through Facebook Marketplace.
  21. I’m a big Darkglass fan. I upgraded my 900 head to the Mk2 and you’re right, they certainly pack a punch. A nice saving on the new price for an essentially new amp. Seller ain’t bad either 😜. Have a free bump mate. Hope you’re well 👍.
  22. That doesn’t excuse the poor communication. How long does it take to ping an e-mail to the commission seller saying ‘your bass has sold, but we are legally obliged to hold payment to you pending the prescribed cooling off period’. No time at all it seems.
  23. Don’t start him off, it’s not good for his blood pressure 😂
  24. Currently for sale at Bass Direct 🤷‍♂️
