  1. Can't advise you but I'll shall watch this thread with interest. I'm still knackered and nursing a sore back, following the load in and out from saturday nights gig.
  2. Can understand not everyone liking the Precision but WTF is all this nonsense about them only being able to generate a thud?
  3. I'm not in the market for one at the mo but that it is really nice. Still miss my BB1200 from the same era. A good luck with your sale bump
  4. Looks like it's off to EBay then. Was hoping it would find a home with a Bass Chatter, but I'm not willing to drop the price any further. So, a final bump.
  5. I've used this seller [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clear-GLOSS-Nitrocellulose-Nitro-Guitar-Lacquer-400ml-Aerosol-Vintage-Finish-/190575441601?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2c5f2e76c1"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clear-GLOSS-Nitrocellulose-Nitro-Guitar-Lacquer-400ml-Aerosol-Vintage-Finish-/190575441601?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2c5f2e76c1[/url] Don't know if they are the cheapest but the service and products are very good.
  6. You need to get that one back Mark, they just look so right together.
  7. Sold Mickey my little Peavey combo. Great to deal with, a nice smooth, easy transaction and the money was in my account pronto.
  8. I was covering on bass in my daughters band at the White Swan, Hoddesdon. Turned out to be a good un. First gig with a new guitarist. The crowd seemed to like it, with a largish haggle of girls dancing to most of the second and third sets. I had a wobbly moment during the solo section of Lenny Kravitz's Go My Way, but gave my brain a few beats to catch up, got back on try and finished at the right time. Other than that it was all pretty good. I really really hate the load in and out, particularly the out at this venue, well most pubs actually. Looks like I'm on maternity cover/bass duties for the foreseeable with this lot, but it is fun and not much in the way of Dad rock in the set .
  9. I've decided that if this doesn't sell by sunday, then it's off to EBay.
  10. I thought the Gibson man looked very shifty and appeared to be lying like a cheap rug. That might just have been his manner though and I could be treating him far too harshly.
  11. These days I don't get GAS for rigs, probably because I have found what I consider to be a keeper. I do think about getting a spare amp head, mostly as I'm fearful of a failure mid gig. I do carry an MXR M80 DI pedal though, so at a push could go through the PA. My rig is: GB Shuttle 6 Two 2 x 10" Markbass Cabs.
  12. Good man, that didn't take long, not exactly the longest "taking stock". Chuffed for you.
  13. Oh the horror, flicking through BGM yesterday and on reaching page 24, in big blue caps, the following: [b]SQUIRE[/b] It's not the first time, there was an example of it last month or the month before but at least it wasn't in caps. So, how can a music journalist not know how to spell it and what is wrong with the proof reader? Right, I'm off for my morning caffeine fix, as you were

    I have just taken delivery of a neck, tuners and assorted bits and pieces. The very well packed/protected parcel took some opening but everything arrived undamaged and in very good condition. Would happily deal with Mark again. We did the deal Sunday, delivery arrived here Wednesday and we enjoyed good comms in between.
  15. That just looks superb Rich, yet another string to your very talented bow. As always well described and quality pics.
  16. Sorry Dave but we, the collective, will NOT allow you to retire. You will have to come up with a much more sensible plan.
  17. Got to agree that is impressive, certainly the right way to treat and keep customers,
  18. Morning Nige. I can't get it to open but I'm not a facebook member, so maybe that's why.
  19. Good luck with it and keep us updated.
  20. I concur with Roland Rock. Top quality, good prices and very swift delivery
  21. A sorry to those who are getting bored with this bump
