The grain on the back of the neck looks amazing. The rest of it is...erm...interesting...

Crazy - He'd get a better price selling them separately for sure. I’m very keen on the 2006 Thumb though :brow:

[quote name='kev' post='381389' date='Jan 15 2009, 03:25 PM']if everyone agreed to bump once a week or so, itl be a much less crowded place to be.[/quote] That's a good call. (have you changed your user name?)

[quote name='birdy' post='381302' date='Jan 15 2009, 02:12 PM']I think you should only be allowed to BUMP after you have had sex (and yourself shouldnt count).[/quote] Isn't it a bit over the top to bump 3 times a day though...? :brow:

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='381020' date='Jan 15 2009, 09:40 AM']Sorry but the Tele can't recover from this I think the Squier versions take the duché bag image away from them.[/quote] ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo you’re on thin ice man. Don’t be dissin’ Johnny Greenwood. The guy is a f***ing legend and plays in the best band in the world (IMO!!). I think that picture is f***ing great – an iconic rock star in his prime playing an iconic guitar that has become synonymous with his name. Amazing guitarist and an amazing guitar.

I think the key is that people would be bumping someone elses thread without any mallace; they’re just commenting on your gear in a positive way and would like to draw people’s attention to is cos they think it’s a great bit of kit. What you’re effectively saying now is “thanks for the nice comments but no thanks - don’t litter my for sale thread with small talk”. Maybe the classifieds isn’t the best place to talk about the intrinsic qualities of different bits of gear or to discuss the pros and cons of the gear for sale vs something else, but I’m always very happy when people comment on my for sale thread with stuff like “great bit of kit this – have a bump on me” cos it’s positive advertising; how can that be a bad thing? Quite honestly, I couldn't give a rats arse if someone gets annoyed that they've wasted 5 seconds of their day reading a positive comment from another member in my for sale thread. I agree that people bumping their own threads should delete the old bumps to stop it becoming cluttered – that’s what I’ve started to do anyway, and I also leave it at least 24 hours and usually about 48 hours before bumping my own stuff - I think that should be standard; why bother bumping any more than that? – Everyone’s seen it so it just means they’re not interested in it.

[quote name='kennyrodg' post='381029' date='Jan 15 2009, 09:51 AM']This is the the next Bass related thing i'm buying,well after getting active eq for my Blazer. GAS free no more,bugger. [/quote] I’m trying to withold from comments like that until I can get hold of some reviews or until people on here have experience of it, and also I reckon it’s gonna cost somewhere between £800 and £1k TC Electronics don’t make cheap gear…

I think that's from [i]Some Kind Of Monster[/i]. Great documentary – it was on More4 the other night.

I think these look great. Can't wait to read some reviews and find out how much they're gonna be retailing for. From the videos on YouTube, it sounds like they’ve properly thought about this head. I can't really understand the negativity in the other thread before anyone’s even had the chance to have a look at one. From those videos it sounds great and looks great, what’s not to like about it at the moment when no one’s had any real word experience of it?

[quote name='john_the_bass' post='120706' date='Jan 15 2008, 11:53 AM']hmmmmmmm........ [url="http://www.ashtonmusic.co.uk/productView.asp?productID=374"]could be interesting[/url][/quote] I've just stumbled across one of these on ebay as was gonna ask about them - £500 for a brand new 300W valve amp?! Where's the catch? I suspect the catch is that the components are shyte and they've been put together by 11 year old kids in a Chinese factory... It’s almost worth a punt cos it might be amazing, but what are the chances?

I don't think they're pull-offs. To me it sounds like it's all fingered but opens up to the open string every now and again - same sort of technique that Chris Wolstenholme uses in some Muse songs, like Hysteria and Hyper Music for example. I could be wrong though...

I'd vote #1 too...

I think this has been linked in another thread, but yeah, it's an odd one. "Fugly" springs to mind as an appropriate adjective to describe this bass. The moral of this story is "stick to what you know best"...

[quote name='Paul Cooke' post='378598' date='Jan 13 2009, 07:46 AM']and I've got the gas for a Telecaster Guitar as a result... [/quote] I've got a Mex Tele and I love it

[quote name='Toasted' post='378825' date='Jan 13 2009, 11:50 AM']I have to say, guys - not to knock any of your DIY in any way, but with the range of pedalboards available on the market today at all price points there really should be something pre-fab to suit you budget.[/quote] I know what you’re saying man, but it’s not all about the practicality; sad as it may be, I enjoy the process and the achievement of building something with my own hands. As well as that, I’ve only spent £2.50 on parts – what pedalboard can you buy for £2.50? I’m not really making anything technical. It’s just a carpeted angled board with slots like a Pedaltrain – just a bit of fun.
