He's a tease isn't he?!

If you are only putting up with the downsides of gigging to keep other bands members happy it's time to move on. If the diary is already fuller than you'd like I can tell you from experience that the more gigs you do for free the more free gigs you'll pick up and it will snowball until you crack, you then look like the bad guy because you won't play the little festival for the donkey sanctuary!

Oooh 8 drivers a side?!

Had a practice in a new wedding venue yesterday, I honestly think without our ampless in ear setup you'd potentially have to cancel the gig in there! Awful echo, Little drumkit sounded like it was micd up at Knebworth.

I think my reputation for not playing any gigs for free has finally got around everyone that knows me, I used to get asked loads but haven't for a while now. All that exposure and opportunity missed, ah well.

Would sir like the last few drunken idiots that won't leave to stand outside smoking in the doorway right in the way?

Insure4music 👍

I wonder if there's a bag for something else that will work?

I had one of those amps from Tandy! Paired with an encore elec guitar, strangely you can still buy those weird batteries in Home Bargains.

I bet they've got gigs and a recording contract already agreed along with a world tour too!

I'm saying nothing! 😎

I had an early British built Ashdown bass rig, I was glad to see the back of it tbh.

All my gigging basses have been built in california, have been since 2002.

I'm not doubting it doesn't happen, I'm saying you're a douche bag if you're one of those that does it.

What if it is 'as described'?

As my feedback on this site (and eBay for that matter) shows I'm still an old fashioned gentleman, if I say I'll buy it or sell it then that's what I do.

That's not how eBay works, if you don't want it don't click on it, not hard really.

We've got a shooting ground a mile away, I find the noise really soothing, nothing better than sitting in the garden reading a magazine with a coffee and listening to the irregular pops and bangs. I've even heard people say clay pigeon shooting is cruel.....

I bet there's a lot of pros using Squire stuff, not necessarily famous players from famous bands as such but pros or there playing, cruise ships, corporate functions, recording sessions, theatres etc etc etc

I like how people always use Fender as an example of how Gibson and Rickenbacker should do business yet Fender have been in massive debt for years, most if not all of my life AFAIK!

Decent basses then?!

Can I still pay with turnips?

There's quite a few of us here insured with them so you better let us know if there's anything wrong with it, I just pay for it and print it off! Lol

I remember when it was all fields.....

Used to be Ampband for about £59 but after a tip off from this very site we are now with Insure4music which is even cheaper! I think we paid £45?
