I think it depends entirely on what you think a rebel song is. Bear in mind that a lot of the political songs go back to the 16th Century pretty much up until 1969-98 and there's a lot of stuff I wouldn't play.

Still looking - there are definitely 2 gigs up for grabs and I definitely need somebody who can sing and play - good rhythm player is essential but not such a problem if you don't want to take lead duties.

Music Matter are the guys who have put this deal together - 40 quid for a GRAMMA and 65 quid for a Great GRAMMA using a discount code at checkout. PM me if you need the codes folks.

Is everybody who wants one sorted for one now? The offer is on until the end of Feb so you have another week or so to buy.

I think the Fallen Angel is voiced for a bit more gain and a more metal sound - probably uses a pair of 6L6s or EL34s run a bit hot to get a bit more gain. If he wants a bit less and wants an Ashdown it's worth looking at the old Peacemaker 40 if he can find one (which will also probably be UK made with a Cabtex cabinet). Laney's LC and VC30s are also very nice and can often be picked up cheap - there is a used but current model LC30 in Rattle and Drum in Derby for under £300 at the moment, which has to be a bargain

9 basses is NOT punk

This bloke has had the ad on for ages. The LP Classic with the seller saying "please understand I will not take less than £2500 for this guitar" (yeah right) seems a snip by comparison.

Well well well! I did kind of wonder that myself, but then thought....nah, surely not?! Who'dathunk it?

Bass was a Jap Fender P into a Peavey TKO 115. If I gig again on bass it will be with my USA Fender P through a Hartke loaded Ashdown Mini 15 and Ashdown ABM300 head. First gigging guitar setup was a Jap Strat through a Peavey Express 65w 1x12 - happy days! Now using a Mesa Express and usually a Les Paul or a Tele.

Just had a little bit of sick in my mouth there. Come on folks, back to normal please. I'M JOKING!!!

No problem! OI! Any more for anymore?

BB drop me a PM when you get a chance and I'll send you over the info.

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='741244' date='Feb 10 2010, 05:51 PM']Well ....I went on the site to place my order and realised MM are only 3 miles from where I work so I collected mine this afternoon and saved a bit on the postage. Decent bunch of lads too. Can't wait to gig on a boomy hollow stage now [/quote] You mean you got EVEN more discount? What side of the Pennines do you live on again? (I'M JOKING!!!)

Good stuff - if anybody else is interested in one, the prices are pretty good - if you want to know more, drop me a PM. I wasn't aware that Bass Direct sold these things and had already approached the company that I bought mine from, who have given me a couple of great prices on GRAMMA and Great GRAMMA that they will stick to until the end of Feb.

Everybody on the list in the first post should have had an email from me now. Cheers!

[quote name='skankdelvar' post='740536' date='Feb 10 2010, 12:55 AM']Can he do that? [/quote] Be interesting to find out whether ebay would pull it for something as daft as saying that he wouldn't take Paypal or leave it on on the offchance that he sells it and they want a cut of the fees - although if it's an auction listing it's a max final value fee of £40 isn't it? Shame that a guitar like this is kept in a safe at a gun dealer and not still be played and loved.
