  1. [quote name='Shockwave' post='749095' date='Feb 17 2010, 11:05 PM']Oooohhh. Damn no trades/part exs? Oh i still want your Hamer Impact![/quote] Sorry mate, need the dosh! That Hamer Impact isn't going ANYWHERE..... lol!
  2. With a big purchase on the near horizon and just a little more cash needed for it - I've decided to park with my lovely Charvel/Jackson in very rare slightly sparkly(?) purple!! It is one of the higher quality thru-neck models from their glory-era, complete with active pickups, heavy duty Jackson bridge and black hardware. Best described as a P bass on steroids it has an inherent big punchy/growling tone with a huge variation of other tones on offer from a very tight bridge pickup tone to a fuller thumping neck pickup. Controls are Master Volume, Bass cut/boost and Treble cut/boost with a pickup selector switch. As you can see the condition is generally very good, with just a couple of dings/scratches and the typical ding or two on the headstock.... Weight is approx 8lbs.... I'm looking for a very reasonable *SOLD*. No trades or low offers please. Pick-up from Central London/Surrey is preferred but will ship by courier of buyers choice & at their expense. *NOW WITH HARD CASE if shipped*..... Cash on collection or direct bank transfer please. Check out my feedback thread (linked below) for assurance of a clean, honest transaction. ROCK on!!!
  3. I started playing having seen Gary Tibbs live with Adam & The Ants in 1981. My cousin then introduced me to KISS and they're firebreathing, blood spitting bassist Gene Simmons. That was me hooked..... From there I got into the melodic rock players of the 70's (80's was all synth & slap to me....) Peter Cetera (Chicago), Dee Murray (Elton John), Tiran Porter (Doobie Brothers), Joe Puerta (Ambrosia), Kenny Gradney (Little Feat) etc etc.... Outside of bass players and my family I'm not sure I've taken huge inspiration from anyone...
  4. VERY nice!
  5. [quote name='Linus27' post='745585' date='Feb 15 2010, 09:56 AM']Hi Paul, I am in Camberley. Any trial is welcome, just drop me a PM. Thanks, Michael[/quote] You're just down the road..... but no cash available for this....
  6. [quote name='walbassist' post='745496' date='Feb 15 2010, 07:25 AM']Hello everyone Well, I've decided to withdraw this bass. I just can't bring myself to sell it, even though I rarely play it. Apologies to all those who have expressed an interest. Best wishes Gareth[/quote] Phew!! Thank feck for that! Good decision Gareth
  7. I'm pretty much GAS-free (well I will be in a few weeks time when a VERY special bass arrives)..... BUT.... I'd still [i]like[/i] the following at some point: Spector Forte-X (New Spectorbird model) Hamer Impact (early 90's model - in black &/or white) Fender 'Geddy Lee' in Sunburst Fender 'Steve Harris' Precision Fender 'Aerodyne' Jazz (non-scratchplate version) Jackson 'Thunderbird' (early 90's model)
  8. Hi Noel, Beautiful bass you have there! Unfortunately, due to the quality/availability/price-point of the 'Euro' series the US series seems to have taken a hammering s/h value-wise in recent years..... Is your bass [i]worth[/i] £3500..... definitely. Would you get more than £2000 - £2500 for it? Sadly it's unlikely in the current market.... Sorry....!
  9. [quote name='Rich' post='742987' date='Feb 12 2010, 12:32 PM']Night Boat To Cairo. There's one little bit in it that really gives me grief. Again, I know how to play it forwards & backwards. It's easy, look. Do-do-do-do. See? But when it gets to that bit in a gig... [/quote] I think I suffer in the same bit!
  10. 'Yorick', where out thou?! You NEED this!
  11. Sold my guitar rack to John. Lovely bloke, turned up on time and a pleasure to deal with. Cheers!
  12. [quote name='wotnwhy' post='740696' date='Feb 10 2010, 10:13 AM']Picked up my Shuker on Sunday and the SWR rig on Tueseday right before a jam. To go from an OLP and 1x12 combo to this was a HUUUUGELY enjoyable experience! [/quote] And hugely EXPENSIVE I imagine! lol! Congrats!
  13. Gorgeous! Have a free BUMP!
  14. Jono & Arsenic... Wow....!! :blush: :blush: Thank you SO much.... We had a wonderful weekend which, to be honest, was as much down to the crowd reaction/enthusiasm/interaction as anything, so Thank YOU! .....and Arsenic - please say a big "Hello" to your daughter from her 'Pet Demon' (lol!) Next stop for us are two more cracking gigs.... [b]Fri 5th March - Cambridge 'Corn Exchange' (Double headliner with 'Limehouse Lizzy'!)

  15. [quote name='Delberthot' post='735300' date='Feb 4 2010, 05:30 PM']Pardon? [/quote] Excuse my spelling!
  16. :wub: Have a free bump....!
  17. [quote name='Sean' post='738088' date='Feb 7 2010, 01:51 PM']Hi All Due to some unforeseen circumstances I'm selling my two Spector Euros. Both are fitted with John East U-Retro preamps and both come with full aluminium/ply heavy duty flight cases.[/quote] Crikey Sean! I trust everything's OK?!? Have a free bump for a beautiful bass....
  18. I'd like it to go with my other one for a lightweight 2ohm monster rig! Unfortunately money is going elsewhere at the moment...
  19. That's a beaut! Congrats
  20. Have a bump for a gorgeous bass. My first decent bass was a CSB360 in wine red.... and I still miss it to this day!
  21. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='731110' date='Jan 31 2010, 09:35 PM']Can you get a price on shipping for it please. Cheers[/quote] I'd really rather not ship it as it will be very hard to box up (long poles etc) and finding a suitable box to use will be a pain..... Maybe you know someone coming down this way who could pick it up if you're interested?
  22. After a GREAT night at Camberley....BUMPING for our gigs next weekend: [b][u]February[/u] 5th Bilston 'Robin RnB' 6th Sheffield 'Boardwalk'[/b]
  23. Right, just went and measured it up (in its disassembled state - as I've never got around to putting it up!) Width would be approx: 5ft 4" Height would be approx: 5ft Depth at base would be approx: 2ft 2"
  24. I'll try to check over the next few days....
