  1. Charlie Watts. Also Steve Jordan, Andy Newmark and Steve Ferrone.
  2. Loud Technologies are the Ampeg distributor, so first call for spares presumably. [email protected] or Tel 01494 557398 They should be able to help, or put you on to someone near you who can. Cheers.
  3. Nice bass! I've always fancied one of these after briefly owning the guitar model in the mid 70's. Dan Armstrongs appear to vary greatly in value - I've seen them go for anything between £400 and over a grand. The Jack Bruce connection is always a help,( especially with rich collectors who willingly snap up anything remotely Cream related) so good luck with your sale. (Maybe try a for sale post on here?)
  4. Chuck Berry. Failing that then Keith Richard or Eric Clapton.
  5. Black Rick copy on Leeds Gumtree today for £265 - looks okay, don't know if its a good price?
  6. Rick copy in black up for sale on Leeds Gumtree at the moment. £265. Sorry unable to do link but you should be able to find it!
  7. Forgot to mention - £75 collected from near Hull, East Yorkshire. Cheers.
  8. Selling my Boss Micro BR digital recorder. Four recording tracks with 32 V-tracks. MP3 player/recorder with time stretch capability. COSM guitar multi-effects,reverb and mastering tool kit. Rhythm Track with 294 rhythm patterns using real drum sounds. USB for loading/saving MP3 and song files. Built in tuner and microphone Battery or AC powered ( if used with optional adaptor) Not using this, so its in virtually mint condition. Comes boxed, with instruction manual, 2 Duracell AA's , slip cover and also an additional 1GB SD card (as well as the supplied SD demo card). These new are in the region of £145 plus, so a cracking deal at £80 posted (UK only). NOW SOLD THANKS! Cheers.
  9. Great rig for the money bump.
  10. Yes! Gary was an early MM user, along with Danelectro and Fender Jazz I think. Great player / band.
  11. [quote name='mep' post='1083659' date='Jan 9 2011, 09:56 PM']You haven't said which ones you are using? I used to use Rotosound rounds years ago but had some issues with the E string so ditched them. After using a few other brands I bought some R45's, the nickel on steel roundwonds without the coloured windings as they were cheaper. To be honest they are pretty damn good for the price. I wanted to try something different from steel roundwounds without going to far - ie flats and these do for me now.[/quote] +1 for the nickel Rotos. Great value strings that sound good & last too. (This is from someone who hates Swing Bass Rotos!)
  12. I love it. £8k though? Mmm, not sure myself. If I had the dosh then I'd probably go for it, knowing that I could get my money back or even a profit if/when I came to sell. Cue lots of the usual vintage vs. relic vs. custom built comments.....
  13. Bump for a great amp / price!
  14. Not great for heavy basses - more of a Strat / tele guitar strap methinks.
  15. Entire PA went down at a prestigous gig at Grosvenor House in London - culprit was the fog machine blowing its stuff straight into the power amps. Had to wait for the amps to reset before continuing. In my early band days I was playing guit*r through a Vox AC30 at a WM Club in Knaresborough when it actually caught fire along with the curtain at the back of the stage - audience thought it was pyros!
  16. FWIW, my take on things- Great - Cee Lo Green, Plan B, Ruby Turner, Rumer, Bellowhead, Secret Sisters and the JH Big Band as usual. Average - Roger Daltrey, Toots, Kylie (looking great as usual though!) Err... - Wanda Jackson, Alison Moyet, Vampire Weekend, Stephen K Amos.... All in all still a great show IMO, plenty of variety etc. Must admit I've always thought Gilson's drumming fits in fine with the JH band, and he plays like someone who listens to whats needed to me. Always an easy target, but still the best place (IMO of course) for live music on mainstream telly. Happy New year.
  17. Nice!!! Okay, I'll open with £300 (+ on a good day?)
  18. These often go for not much more when in better nick. Great basses though.....
  19. Peavey TVX210 - fairly portable (65lbs), 4 ohms and sound pretty good. Oh yeah and cheap too - circa £199 new, s/h £100 or less.
  20. [quote name='BurritoBass' post='1062507' date='Dec 18 2010, 02:33 PM']Bass. Cable. Amp. Job done. Nothing against effects but just not for me[/quote] +1
  21. Mine is on (so far). Am in West Yorkshire tomorrow though, so may be a tough one towards the Pennines. We've had it probably the worst over the last few weeks here in East Yorkshire, and have n't missed a gig yet! Been to London and the N.East and made it to them all. (Ironically my local pub gig 5 miles away cancelled us though!) Allow loads of time for travelling, take shovels & warm clothes and flasks etc, drive sensibly and plan your route according to BBC road/weather updates.
  22. Mmmm.. I thought 'D' too, but sounds (to me anyway) like the guitarist plays the solos as if it's in 'G'??? When we play it we always do a big rall and finish on the 'D' though!
  23. Great bass, great price!
  24. Am I the only one who prefers the version in the OP.......??
