  1. Hmmm. I am tempted, and at that price... OTOH, I have no job at the moment. So that would be madness. So I'll just have to wish you luck with your sale. If my circs change before it sells (ha!), I'll be back.
  2. Slight update: It's definitely the smiley that's doing the damage, at least wth my issue. I'm adding the smiley as the two characters. They don't have to be next to each other - they can be separated by other characters. Once you put the smiley in, it refuses to let the cursor keys or return key work. Possibly it's losing track of how long the line is?
  3. Can't add anything about Android, but I've just had my browser (Firefox on my Ubuntu Linux desktop) refuse to accept a Return key after a smiley in a PM - delete the smiley, it's fine. That might be related? Happy to provide more detail if needed.
  4. Cello lessons, from age 8 I think, which I should have continued - quit at 16, partly because of a school change, partly because I didn't really want to play in orchestras. The more bass guitar I play, the clearer I am that those lessons are a key part of my musical mindset. But I never did very much with it. I also did theory, to at least grade 5 (I found the certificate a couple of years ago), but I have no recollection of doing that at all. I've pretty much forgotten how to read music. I can't remember anything of the curriculum music lessons. Possibly I didn't have to do them? I certainly learned a lot more at home though. I do remember my parents (both teachers) talking about the sorry state of music education in schools. My dad floated the idea that if the powers that be really hated rock music so much, they should ensure it was taught in school.
  5. If I'd not been laid off last month... ah well. Thanks for posting
  6. Probably a sticker from a real one, then. Or maybe a bogus transfer.
  7. Peavey Fury and Fury II. I should sell mine, they aren't being used.
  8. No, it's not the W-bodied thingy... It's this fretless. It appears to have the Warwick emblem on the headstock, and while I don't know Warwicks this seems to be ludicrously underpriced and generally not very Warwick-y. So is it bogus, a re-necked bitsa, or what? Opinions, thoughts, etc. please. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/W-Fretless-Bass-Guitar-1401765-ET/184430876297?hash=item2af0efd689:g:j~QAAOSw1GJfUPKj
  9. That was more or less what I remembered, but I got all tangled up on the word "composite" and confused myself. Thanks for clarifying
  10. Are the bodies on these easy to upgrade? IIUC their construction is quite lightweight.
  11. Yes, me too. Though I don't like the headstock design at all.
  12. Sounds like a result, though TBH I'm not sure who actually wound up with it...
  13. I should really have known better, because the single-neck is a much better match
  14. I was thinking more of the visual than the weight.
  15. Can't be many of these out there. I'm tempted to suggest this must be the Boat Anchor I keep hearing about https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Custom-Made-Dano-Twin-Neck-Bass-Guitar/274466231164?hash=item3fe776537c:g:BKUAAOSw40xfJcAw
  16. Not a fiver, thank goodness, otherwise I'd be in trouble... GLWYS!
