  1. Ben bought my Guild. He's a lovely guy, all was hassle free and as it should be. Highly recommended.
  2. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1479233157' post='3174954'] Some of us consider the Warwick Streamer design to be more refined. The Spector shape is more brutal; this could be why Spector get upset that Streamers are more prolific. [/quote] Brutal? Have you ever even seen a Spector in the flesh? Whatever the argument, the NS body shape is far from brutal. Ergonomic, flowing and organic, maybe. Yes, the Warwick body shape is a refined version, but they had to 'refine' the top-horn in order to.. well, we all know why.
  3. [quote name='Wayne Firefly' timestamp='1478605393' post='3170178'] Heres me and my old Ray-Tus !! [/quote] You're in Vice Squad!? Cool! Always fancied Beki (predictably enough!)
  4. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1478602924' post='3170150'] Without wanting to stir too much, if this is the Basschat consensus then you are probably going to have to lock and delete every new thread concerning price rises for gear made outside of the UK, as whether you like it or not it is entirely down to the B.. word situation. [/quote] Fine. Life is too short
  5. I've taken some Brexit posts out here. We've had the debate and it is over. Anymore and I'll lock the topic and offenders will be issued with a warning.
  6. [quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1463784496' post='3054139'] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRenOZQMbHo[/media] [/quote] My first single, given to me by my Mum. I actually preferred the B side. Gold star if you know the songs name?
  7. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1478035268' post='3166301'] Cliff, man... what are you doing?? [/quote] The CR calendar is always a treat. https://www.google.ie/search?q=cliff+richard+calendar&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj26cS01InQAhUkCMAKHYtFBEwQsAQIHg&biw=1280&bih=635#tbm=isch&q=cliff+richard+calendar+2016
  8. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1478036608' post='3166321'] Well, at least he's got more hair than Rob Halford... [/quote] Well, he's got someones hair! At least RH is honest.
  9. 25 pages of them here; http://basschat.co.uk/topic/243644-the-show-us-your-limelight-thread/
  10. [quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1477825314' post='3164610'] I saw Jah and Keith do a Metal Box in dub style gig 5 years ago, his bass tone was like the comfort of the womb [/quote] Not at the Village Underground in Shoreditch? I was there. It was brilliant.
  11. No money for haircuts! Or dust extractors and face-masks!
  12. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuuIF6mmRLA[/media] Thanks for that
  13. I've found the other staff fine. Just young lads to me. I've been pretty much left to my own devices which I like. If I want help I ask. About the only thing they are funny about is getting the basses down and putting them back, and if that saves me dinging them, then fair enough. I quite like the fact the Marcus has daft hair and silly shoes. Shows he's human and into things that lads of that age should be into. Mind you, I'm 50 next birthday and still try with the hair and shoes.
  14. Just heard.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-37755445
  15. [quote name='CaptainBlackarm16' timestamp='1476758428' post='3156988'] Any trades? [/quote] [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1469303146' post='3097316'] No trades thanks. [/quote]
  16. [quote name='Lee-Man' timestamp='1475163567' post='3143642'] Standard Leicester [/quote] I'm up there twice a month and I do get the feeling it's a funny old place.
  17. I was in Leicester first thing this morning and there were student types still about drinking. Was there some kind of Uni do on last night?
  18. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1475097548' post='3143112'] I never kiss and tell [/quote] It's a pity the store is closing, the kissing was the best bit.
  19. [quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1475094874' post='3143088'] Does it count if I took said "selfie" using a webcam rather than a mobile phone? [attachment=228840:felineVsFretless.jpg] (And does it still count if I know longer own the featured bass?) [/quote] Did you move it on because the cat sprayed it?
  20. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1475044871' post='3142475'] Mine is. I set the camera up, I set the self timer, I pushed the button and I posed. [/quote] I honestly don't think that kind of tomfoolery is in the spirit of a selfie. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selfie
  21. But none of these pictures are selfies! We already have a thread 'Post Your Pictures, Lets See What You Look Like.' Oh well..
