I've got one. It's fine - comfortable, good to play, nice neck, maybe a little characterless in the sound somehow? - but its electrics are not ideal - the damn thing eats batteries. Net result, I never use it.

Thanks to all for contributions so far A swift online search suggests that cyanoacrylate (Superglue) is the way to go. But I'd guess that epoxy will be at least as good; the tricky bit will be clamping it so it's correctly placed and stable. I'd forgotten this: there are also cracks in the neck pocket. It's possible that the whole thing will have to be written off.

If I lived in west Dorset, I might have a go at that

The lower horn has broken off cleanly.

hi folks Has anyone attempted to repair a luthite body (e.g. Ibanez Ergodyne or Cort Curbow)? Any experiences, hints, tips etc. gratefully received thanks Mike

I also wonder whether the new Classifieds will make the site less intuitive, because it's hard to see where (e.g.) the eBay subforum and the Feedback would go.

[quote name='Shockwave' timestamp='1354625623' post='1888249'] ... I think the old classifieds section with a subscription fee and bump button is a better solution. 1 - carried on using the regular marketplace forums - Yes 2 - charged a yearly subscription fee to be able to post adverts there (~£20) to help pay for developments - Yes or a "by listing" fee. 3 - installed a new 'bump' button which only works once every 36hrs on your thread - YES 4 - develop the marketplace to allow thumbnails next to threads for everyone - No, I dont think it is needed, I would still like the classifieds to look like a forum setup. Less cluttered, more adverts on one screen. 5 - develop a better form for selling items with fields for things like location, price, etc to make adverts clearer - This is something I have been pushing for years, so yes. [/quote] I agree with this.

[quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1355214481' post='1895346'] To my mind, 'Definitely maybe' at the time was a breath of fresh, attitude-driven air - the nearest thing to 'Never Mind The Bollocks' I had heard in years. Furthermore there were some very melodic, memorable tracks that still stand the test of time (Live Forever, Slide Away etc). While most fans revere it, I already thought the rot set in with 'Morning Glory' (can't stand their 'epic' Champagne Supernova for example and I hate Noel's nasal voice on 'Don't look back in anger', Liam's voice is waaaaayy better). ... [/quote] Exactly.

IIRC this is a BC member (nice guy, I bought a BBN5 from him a couple of years ago) and the headless was previously advertised here.

I have a second-hand Yamaha RBX200F I like very much. It cost me about £100.

I bought Hathernman's Squier fretless jazz. A painless transaction, quick and efficient; good communications; bass was well packed. A pleasure to deal with, and I'd have no hesitation dealing with him again. Recommended. thanks
