Lovely looking basses, sound great as well, congrats on getting them, happy non-identical twins John

if you don't mind second hand stuff try Ebay, I picked up a Stagg CA-20B combo on Ebay for for just over a £10 and it's a nice sounding little combo to my ears and has been great for me a a born again beginner There is one on Ebay at the moment at the low price of 99p !

[quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1390329745' post='2344155'] Somebody has to buy one of these and tell the rest of us what it's like! [/quote] I have one of the HB's on the way at the moment

Well after thinking about it overnight last Tuesday and Wednesday morning I ordered the Harley bass late on Wednesday and got an email this morning that it's been dispatched I figured if I don't like it or it's rubbish I can send it back and search again for a bass, tell the truth I just really like the look of the bass so I went for it, nothing ventured etc. Anyone else ordered via German websites and found that it takes a few days for payment to clear via a VISA debit card ?(I bank with Santander), the amount seemed in limbo for a few days and not available, does it take a few days in Euro countries for payments to clear? I'll post some pics etc. and may even do a playing vid (which should be worth a laugh for you lot!) when it's delivered, unpacked etc John John

A Yamaha on Ebay for £70 B.I.N, price [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-Fretless-Bass-/331110594895?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4d17bab94f"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-Fretless-Bass-/331110594895?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4d17bab94f[/url] John

Damn didn't know he had passed away, loved the TIN DRUM album went it came out, sad loss, thanks for reminding me what a great player he was

His early stuff was great, Billion Dollar babies is an amazing album but he seemed to lose it a bit after the Welcome To My Nightmare record, some of his more recent stuff isn't bad, I have the AC greatest hits CD on my iPod and when you listen to that it makes you realize what great songs he has released, saw him live in the 70's and he was great and again in the late 90's at Wembley Arena and he still had it live John

Schools Out for Alice Cooper for you then !! John
