    [quote name='BigBeefChief' post='241008' date='Jul 16 2008, 04:08 PM']- Sketchy Trombone[/quote] Oh come on!! Turnham Green and his Young Jazz Lido do a fantastic version of this. I can't believe anyone would hate that tune the way they play it....

    [quote name='ShaunB' post='240903' date='Jul 16 2008, 02:47 PM']...well, it's almost finished! Neck settling in nicely. Added some carbon vinyl to the headstock - passes under poor lighting! Gonna wait a couple of days to set her up - but really pleased with the result - and sounds good too! Ok, no moans about the amount of weeds twixt the paving stones!! They add colour! [/quote] Weeds? What weeds? My eyes were drawn to that lump of carbon loveliness in the middle of the photo- didn't see much else... Looks gorgeous Shaun. I hope it sounds as good as it plays. I'm really impressed.

Ashdown ABM 210T Compact for sale This is in as new nick bought off the forum earlier this year for £200,and has recieved very little bedroom use since.

Genuine reason for sale(my car has got to the end of the road) would prefer buyer to collect if possible.....

    Can I take the Bass Bible please

    I took ownership of this cab as part of a trade with Clarky for my UL310. It's a cracking cab that is easily transportable one-handed. It sounds amazing. Details of the UL115: Speaker: 1 x 400w RMS Cast Aluminum Frame 100w RMS Tweeter Freq Response: 38hz - 16khz Power Rating: 400w RMS (1200w Peak) 8 Ohms Suggested Wattage: 200w - 1000w Sensitivity: 100db SPL @ 1w 1m Dimensions: 21.5" H x 23 " W x 17.75 " D Conditon-wise it's excellent ( a few scuffs on the bottom corner protectors) and comes with a custom-made padded cover. It sounds amazing and is a really decent piece of kit I'm looking for £400 (I'm going to put this on Ebay too at a higher price to see if I get any joy at all!!) Thanks for looking.

    [quote name='martthebass' post='238145' date='Jul 12 2008, 07:40 PM']Nick, your GAS under control - never! BTW any news on the Shuker 5?[/quote] I played a Ric 4001 Paul Macartney today at the Studio. Looked amazing as all Rics do to me. Sounded really beefy on the neck pickup and classic Ric on the bridge pickup. Down to 2 basses at the moment Mart. 3 when the Shuker arrives- ETA February 2012. I jest of course...........Jeez I hope!!

    [quote name='MB1' post='238110' date='Jul 12 2008, 06:23 PM']MB1. Looks like Old Horse is having another Chris Squire Moment! [/quote] Unfortunately not Martin. What with my car needing a service and my wife's desire to get more bits done to the house, my GAS fund is non-existent. Never mind, it would've clashed with my eyes anyway

    Bought Stuart's Drum Machine. It arrived exactly as described and I'm very happy with it. Our old Drummer isn't....hahahahaha Cheers Stuart

    I'll do my best to come along mate. My wife is having a few friends round the house tonight, so if you don't mind a man and his Labrador (who incidentally has a fine taste in music) turning up to watch, I'll hopefully see you later.

  16. Old Horse Murphy
    Having owned basses that have belonged to Rich and Steve and knowing the quality of their basses and how well they're looked after, this would be a cracking instrument for anyone wanting a 70's P.

    [quote name='Clarky' post='235819' date='Jul 9 2008, 04:01 PM']Would go well with my new bass though [attachment=10605:bass.jpg][/quote] PM'd!!

    I'm looking for a trade with my brand new Cab as I'm finding it a bit heavy for my old back. I think it's a 4x4. Immaculate condition and never gigged. Any offers? No tyre kickers please.

    Personally, I think there is one person to blame for this whole sorry mess. He'll deny it of course. This man is a menace to society. You have been warned
  20. Old Horse Murphy
    It's a good looking bass alright and I was sorely tempted to buy it a while ago. Personally I think this bass has created too much emotion on Basschat for you to be able to sell it for more than £395. I really hope I'm proved wrong and that this bass will be judged on its own merits (and therefore achieve the sort of price you're looking for) but I suspect you'll have more luck selling this baby on Ebay. Good luck with the sale mate. Nice Rickenbacker by the way!!

    Welcome Andy. You'll find a number of Stagg fans on here to shoot the breeze with.

    [quote name='sgt-pluck' post='235210' date='Jul 8 2008, 07:33 PM']I'm 99.99% sure that I've seen footage of him playing a Jazz, although I've seen Nick Cave and/or Bad Seeds/Grinderman live god knows how many times and never seen him playing anything other than that P. Not that I'm an obsessive Cave fan or anything. Pluck[/quote] I've seen him with a Jazz too. It's the same colour scheme as his P Bass.

    Wayne bought a 4u Rack case off me. The money arrived swiftly and the whole deal went without a hitch. He's a top guy to deal with.

    [quote name='Dr.Dave' post='232448' date='Jul 4 2008, 08:51 AM']In a bassy sense I find I feel better if I only own gear I use. I'm a gigging player first and foremost and taking my tools of the trade out with me makes me happy. I also like seeing the 20 spots stuffed in the pot on the mantleshelf. Not because I'm greedy or a 'bread head' but because it feels like a tangible reward for the work I've put in over the years. It makes me feel relevant. I've been skint and I've been wedged. Neither was the be all and end all of life but wedged is better.[/quote] Pot on the mantleshelf ehhh??? (Hahaha now I know where Dave keeps his wealth!!)
