  1. [quote name='Iain' timestamp='1430652466' post='2763360'] For comedy value ask an unsuspecting band member to pick it up by the side handles and watch them chin themselves as they put way too much effort in... [/quote] I did something similar to a bassist friend. He very nearly threw my Compact over his head
  2. Oops just noticed pics are on the piss, they show fine everywhere else. Also edited to say can travel to meet up part way if necessary. Within reason of course
  3. [quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1430638165' post='2763180'] ...but you should have used the condom from Roqsolid. <_< I'm outta here.............. [/quote] Barefaced cheek....
  4. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1430605367' post='2763081'] Nice little piece, but it does echo with the sound of salesmen, just a bit. Jon. [/quote]
  5. [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1430467680' post='2761613'] Microsoft users: The much hated Internet Explorer is being killed off in Windows 10, to be replaced by a browser called Microsoft Edge. It is currently being beta tested by members of the much loved U2. You read it here first. [/quote] Yes, and I read it on a Sunday. Bloody Sunday, of all things.
  6. [quote name='paul h' timestamp='1430494418' post='2762052'] My preferred site as well. I might have to resort to last.fm [/quote] That'll be last resort fm, then....
  7. For sale is my trusty Compact, which I've had for about 3 years. It is a 'Gen 2' version I believe, with chrome metal corners, black metal grille and twin speakons. It has had a fair few gigs in various pub/club type venues and has never wanted for volume or tone using my old Trace 200 and 250 watt heads. They are as good as they say. I'm reluctantly selling this to free up some cash for some other projects. I'm in the Brighton-ish area, and at the moment would prefer pickup, and can meet part-way if needs be. Cheers Geoff [attachment=191034:WP_20150502_12_16_55_Pro.jpg] [attachment=191035:WP_20150502_12_17_16_Pro.jpg] [attachment=191036:WP_20150502_12_17_56_Pro.jpg]
  8. Just bought Davey's Ashdown cab, with replacement Kappalite driver. Good friendly guy to deal with, recommended.
  9. [quote name='Left Foot' timestamp='1430407056' post='2761121'] Would this do 800W into 2 Ohms? Or is that lateral thinking just bad thinking? [/quote] Its more than likely rated down to 4 ohms so It'll probably do a puff of smoke into 2 ohms. Unless there is output protection of sourts.
  10. [quote name='ebenezer' timestamp='1430387671' post='2760852'] I Do apologise.....I will now go and lash myself with a twig! [/quote] And make that a heavy gauge twig!
  11. I have one of these, cracking instruments. Great quality and sublime necks, so easy to move around.
  12. Id say Stanley Clarke as I think he had a tremendous impact but what do I know but out of the two you mention then definitely jack Bruce because he connects more with the mainstream but then again jaco is definitely a one off but I stick with jack bruce as my suggestion are you limited to just one of the two you mention?
  13. Hi again Davey Sorry for being so slow getting back to you. In the space of two weeks my family has had a funeral, a birth and a big birthday, so ive not had much time for anything else. Do you still have the cab? Cheers Geoff
  14. I was expecting to see a thread about gear made of clear perspex.
  15. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1430087025' post='2757926'] Trading Standards have asked The 1910 Fruit Gum Company, US based songsters of "Simon Says" to ensure all their product is labelled with a sell-by date in future. [/quote] It is rumoured Trading Standards have already been informed that the aforementioned product is already out of date before it even hits the shelves.
  16. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1429966637' post='2756768'] [attachment=190456:IMG_0809.JPG] Acronym heaven! Markbass LMIII in white plus MB gig bag. Sent without prior payment by No Lust In Jazz. Top bloke. [/quote] Perfect Sunday post. Instills confidence and happiness about this marvellous site. Karma all round.
  17. [quote name='mikebass84' timestamp='1430045539' post='2757336'] Managed to sell some unwanted things for a bit more than I was expecting so I decided to get myself one. Should be here early in the week. Will write up a small review when I get chance [/quote] Will definitely be looking out for that....
  18. [quote name='ianrendall' timestamp='1429817923' post='2755347'] Currently doing a week run of 'Oliver' with a Bernard Edwards tone! [/quote] Good times then...
  19. [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1429808660' post='2755222'] The Tornadoes, of Telstar fame, are however related to Michael Fish (don't mention the great storm). [/quote] Indeed. Michael Fish famously said there would not be a hurricane. Alex Higgins is obviously not available for comment.
  20. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1429718678' post='2754261'] There are lots of pail imitators but "The Alternative Fact File" stands top of my bucket list. [/quote] This hypothesis just doesn't hold water
  21. Carly Simon's classic You're So Vain has now finally come clean about who she wrote it: Her musician son, Paul Simon. Nearly true, dat.
  22. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1429699870' post='2754021'] It seems that Viz (the magazine that's "better than nothing") are keen to get in on the act too. [attachment=190232:Screen-Shot-2015-04-13-at-10.01.38.png] [/quote] Those rascals. Anyway good to know as its my birthday today too. How they missed me off their list is strange.
