    "Don't dismiss the stuff that you think you've dealt with, you haven't even started yet. Also, think twice on taking that duvet on that first date, you'll know what I mean when I get there. Lastly, the time is now. oh and ps. - stop picking at it!"

    Now £150 Here for sale is an Aria Pro IGB 40 These were made around the end of the last century, I've seen a few similar but with only three knobs, also billed as IGB 40's so I think the spec may have changed through the years they were produced. My first bass was a 4 knob version of this in a dark walnut colour, hence me purchasing this, hankering after my youth. However, its just not getting played, probably because I'm nowhere near my youth anymore. Its an active bass, 9v. A couple of small blemishes in the wood from fingernails where you would expect them from slapping. The previous owner tried to make the bass look like a through neck, by applying a couple of stripes of some sort on the body, as you can see these have almost faded now to nothing. Id prefer it if this was collected, but will post in a gigbag if the buyer so wishes. I'm near Honiton in Devon. Although I do travel around the UK a fair bit with my band, could bring it along to a gig and do 'the deal' there. Heres a list of dates for the forthcoming future - (theres many more planned for the second half of the year too) - http://www.cloudbustingkatebushtribute.com/dates.html

    **BASS NOW SOLD ** Here for sale is a Squier VM P bass in the amber finish. We all know what these basses are about, incredibly good quality for the price. This is a standard model, with no extrenuous fiddling gone on by the look of things, though I have not owned it from new I must confess. There are a couple of dings in the (very thick looking) lacquer/varnish, which my appalling camera skills have singularly failed to show up. One either side of the belly cutaway at the top, and a pair on the back near the lower cutaway. Also a very small ding in the wood on the back of the neck, none of these affect the instrument, purely cosmetic. I'm based near Honiton in Devon if anyone wants to come have a look/noodle. I would rather the bass is collected, but will post in a gigbag if the buyer so desires.

    Oooh my word, this looks interesting. Is the board flat or radiused please? i.e. enough to play with a bow?

    I have a couple I keep swapping back and forth between at the mo, namely 'Music Has The Right to Children' and 'Geogaddi' Im not a massive electronica fan, but do listen to all sorts. Id like to delve into the genre a bit more, can you recommend me some stuff? Are Carbon Based Lifeforms worth a listen? I noticed their albums seem quite expensive

    This is rapidly becoming one of my favourite basses. It may appear in here already, as it was purchased from a BC'er, a J&D jazz (I'm not a man of expensive tastes) in seafoam green (was the colour that made me go for it) upgraded with some Wilkinson tuners, bridge and control plate in black, and a Fender logo (who are they when they at home?). Since bagging it I've replaced the chrome pickguard screws with black, attacked the back of the neck with a rasp and sandpaper to slim it a bit, wirewooled the sticky varnish off the front of the board and strung it with a set of Status Black Nylons. It plays great and seems to be the bass I find myself going to at the moment. Love it. Even splashed out an a nice new leather strap for it

    Do you know the history of it? Only that's is fairly significant wear n the back yet those frets look like they haven't been played. That is absolutely beautiful tho, did you get the ashtrays with it?

    Thanks I think its high time I learned some about some proper stuff rather than just winging my way thru life
