Mike just bought an EA iAmp800 from me. He dropped in to pick it up and we had a pleasant time chatting. Good to do business with.

Do I sound like I'm obsessed with breadcrumb arrows? They're still gone.

Came into work today and found the unread posts buttons and breadcrumb arrows aren't showing again. Tried F5, Ctrl-F5, reboot, and clearing cache, all to no avail (Firefox 17, Win XP). Is it just me?

I started on guitar, decided to take up the bass duties in my then band as the other guitarist was probably better than me, then when I moved to Tamworth went looking for a band as either guitarist or bassist. Bassists being rarer, that's where I finished up. I still play guitar, and use guitar to write songs (so I have to start working out bass lines for my own songs after telling the guitarist what to play).

Either you can go onto That Ebay and buy a Markbass 102P traveller for £429 [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Markbass-trv102p-bass-cab-/130806301249"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Markbass-trv102p-bass-cab-/130806301249[/url] or you can go to GAK and buy it brand new for £421...

The power supply may run two separate lines to the preamp and to the power board. It would be worth checking that you have a supply to the power amp before replacing anything in the amp module.

And the arrows on the breadcrumb trail are also back - not that they're of any great significance of themselves, but they do seem to be associated with the "view next post" buttons and presumably generated in the same chunk of code.

Count me as another one who prefers the old marketplace - partly because the marketplace is part of the forum, while the classifieds section is outside it. I'm not particularly happy with the case adjustment on the advert headings - I just put up an advert for an EA iAmp800 in SKB rack case, and, presumably parsing the first two letters as both upper-case and assuming I'm an imbecile who posts everything in upper-case, the software has reset the whole lot into "I'm An Imbecile Who Posts In Upper Case But This Is Less Shouty" case. EA iAmp800 in SKB rack case - good Ea Iamp800 In Skb Rack Case - bad I notice that there's a PRS (sorry, Prs) seller who's suffered the same.

Right, finally finished it and got organised enough to be ready to pass it on.

"Distressed"? I'd have described it as "suicidal".

If you go for separates rather than a combo, you have the option to go for a lightweight cab now and then get a lighter amp some way down the line. You're not tied in to changing both amp and speakers at the same time. Plus you have flexibility in the combination, eg. you could have a Genz Benz amp and Tecamp cab.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1353485842' post='1875019'] The "go to first unread post" buttons have gone missing again... [/quote] And along with them the ">" markers in the breadcrumb trails, although at least we now have all the breadcrumb trail components back again.

[quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1353063744' post='1871083'] Buy this now!

Do they use double the thickness of depleted uranium that Trace Elliot use to line their cabs? Bargain if you can lift it.

Why do sellers constantly mis-advertise Squiers as Squires? Especially when it's written on the sodding headstock...

[quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1353177225' post='1872492'] This is amusing. Inflated ego meets troll. [/quote] Which is which?

[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1352894440' post='1868879'] I don't really see that a 5 string is wholly necessary and I think, I you want to play a 6 string bass, then you seriously ought to consider being a guitarist. Not my cup of tea either, but I know that a lot of people swear by them - and they possibly play styles of music that they will argue require those devices. [/quote] Oh yes, I'd forgotten you were a Fender player.

What would your definition of a 12-string guitar be? And what is your definition of a 6-string bass?

Yes it is.

[quote name='mickthebass' timestamp='1352310837' post='1861483'] [color=#000000]Talk about fake rickies take a look at this lot, we’d better tell the CEO about this it on evilbay Item number 230878499400 what a hoot. “Sound Cartel” wah whatever next. [/color] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000][attachment=123008:shine.jpg][/color][/size][/font] [/quote] It doesn't (from what I can gather from what's been posted on the subject by Those Who Know) infringe Rickenbacker's trademarks, as those are the headstock and Rickenbacker logo. As far as the general attitude to fakes is on here, read through a few of the threads on fake Fenders. There's quite a few members who know enough to be able to spot fakes (as in instruments where the seller is attempting to pass them off as Fenders, not just instruments that look like Fenders) and who will then report them to Ebay. There is also a degree of antipathy to RIC's extremely zealous trademark protection, which quite possibly goes beyond what they are entitled to do if what has been communicated about trademarks is the case and the whole case, as they pursue sellers who are selling instruments which they specifically state are copies, hence not attempting to pass them off as Rics at all.

Just bought some Graphtech bridge saddles and a Hexpander from Noah. All went perfectly smoothly.
