Couriers in general are a necessary evil we have to accept if we don't want to deliver or have gear collected. You pay your money and take the risk. I think that we've all got horror stories about Couriers haven’t we?

Two Tribes - FGTH

Try the "Shortscale Bass Comparison in Pictures" thread

I have a Tanglewood Acoustic 4 string bass which, TBH I really shouldn't have bought - another impulse buy - needs a new home where it might get used. I'll bring it along.

Hey Ross Have you spoken to @Garymac...he's local too. There's a new luthier, Matt Kersey, in Symondshyde who I used to install a preamp. https://www.kerseyguitars.com/

Isn't there another thread running currently with a "gadget " built by one of our members to offset the neckdive. I'll see if I can find it.

LONG LIVE ROCK'N'ROLL!!

I'm at the stage of thinking about moving some gear on but TBH I see a lot of my gear as a potential Life Insurance policy - gear I've acquired for not a lot which I hope to sell down the line for a bit more. I have several basses I'll be reluctant to part with - the two that @Andyjr1515 built for me, my VC and the @Jabba_the_gut mini. While I'm still playing I plan to hold onto my Yamahas too. I hope that once I've started to sell stuff it'll become easier.

That was my thought. Get yourself a £50 copy to take with, bring back something a bit more classy and hope for the best. Don't assume that HMC&E don't know what they are doing though, they have specialists in the value of most stuff.

Can't copy and paste from Gumtree using my phone.

Just been browsing on Gumtree and there's a quite nice looking red semi acoustic bass by Gear4Music for not a lot. I've seen loads of their gear for not a lot. I accept its probably entry level gear - similar to HB - but the difference in build quality can't be so wide that HB are regarded highly while G4M has seemingly no following. Does anybody have any experience of G4M gear?

...and don't forget The City of London. If anybody asks you how big is the City of London its about a mile and a half by three quarters of a mile.
