  1. DR Lo Riders certainly fit, so I cannot see why not?
  2. Just nipped up to Stafford to meet Alain and do a bit of bass trading. A thoroughly nice chap, regretfully did not have too long to chat as I had a train to catch (running across platforms was involved). Top deal, smiles all around Cheers buddy!
  3. [quote name='Freddy Le Cragg' timestamp='1404165048' post='2490010'] Every other act I saw on the telly? [/quote] Was your TV set on mute?
  4. Have to say, I am surprised at the number of positive Jack White comments on here. Maybe I just didn't get it?
  5. f*** me I need to get myself round to Trujillo's gaff, he has a complete fleet of Warwick basses
  6. One more from me... [URL=http://s741.photobucket.com/user/Bassmankev/media/DSC_1388_zpsre4nzuyt.jpg.html][IMG]http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx59/Bassmankev/DSC_1388_zpsre4nzuyt.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  7. Jack White's band is awful. Truly awful. I can't remember watching a worse act at Glastonbury, had they played together as a band before today?! Just a mess of sound and ideas, even the White Stripe covers were just terrible.
  8. I can't quite remember how they work, but wouldn't a shorter screw help?
  9. Just sold a funky pedal to Pete, smooth as butter. Paid Thursday evening and the pedal is now living with him, quick and easy! Cheers bud!
  10. Without putting much thought into it, I always thought it was just these new digital power amps in comparison with the old. A 200w Trace Elliot is hella loud compared to the modern class D equivalent...
  11. [quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1403911533' post='2487760'] there a switch to turn it back to normal, or is it mod only? [/quote]
  12. Market is on it's arse, quite frankly! Stunning bass!
  13. Oh dear. That asking price is truly amazing. I'm almost tempted to offer £100 and see if he accepts and it is a silly buy it now price for a reason....but I am scared it could end with me owning it!
  14. Bump, now for cash sale. Sizeable saving over a new one and it wouldn't be white It's mint with box. Looks like this
  15. The bass that got away, the Vigier Passion. Always fancied one when they were out of my price range; now I have more expensive basses and I still haven't owned one. One day
  16. Col, CPBass, has (or had) one
  17. I hope he does sort things out. I am still quite annoyed at Taylor for not contacting the owners of the Subterreneas with the bleed issue offering the fix; I am still waiting for my offer of a repair, albeit I sold the pedal some months ago. Hopefully he will get his sh*t together as his pedals are fantastic!
  18. Just look at the state of that, I have seen plywood 70s/80s copies that look nicer. £19k? Not even if I won the lottery. As a collectible item, it's a great chance to pick up an instrument that would be very special to people who care for Fender instruments. But surely, [i]surely [/i]no-one will buy this for any other reason!
  19. Well that is exactly what you would expect, lovely bass and seems in great condition. Get your husband to make an account and have him create a thread in the basses for sale forum with the highest value you realistically think you can get for it from the comments in this thread. I'm sure it will go, patience may be required is all
  20. Just my advice, but I would stick her in the sales forum with a value of £1500 (deliberately on the higher end) or nearest offer, and see what you get. You could always put in the thread that you are after a quick sale which may encourage offers you are looking for, and if you change your mind and decide to go for the higher price then you can just edit your ad Plenty of pictures demonstrating condition etc, and it will be your husband who will need to join the forum with his own account and list the bass as you cannot list on behalf of anyone else unfortunately, even if it is your husband! It's a specialist bass and to the right buyer £1500 would still be a very, very good price, given the £6k or so it would cost to buy one today. Warwick basses are fantastic and it is only the belief that the market is low for them that they go up for sale so cheap. Supply and demand, if people stopped selling them for silly prices the market will rise again! Needless to say, I sold (traded) my Warwick Dolphin (slightly cheaper than the Vampyre) for £1800 this year, a good bit more than you may expect with prices as they are, so demand for the newer/more specialist models is still high. Alternatively, I'll buy it off you for £50 and a smile, can't say fairer than that
  21. what is the deal with those Platinum series strings? Would I be right in assuming that they are basically wound to have the played-in sound straight away? Or is there some other magic going on?
  22. [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1403465234' post='2482978'] Its been up and sold about 4 times in the last 3 months [/quote] I think something is wrong with this instrument. One to avoid, me thinks!
