  1. They really are great instruments. Typically, just as I’m getting interest, our guitarist has discovered it’s wonders. I’ve been telling him for years about it but no, he knew best and has been lugging around various guitars plus spares needlessly for years 😂 He wouldn’t even give it a try until I took it to his house, took it out the case, plugged it in, switched it onto the acoustics, put it in his hands and hit the strings. He said “Fookin hell, that sounds just like a really good acoustic”. The same with the Les Pauls and Tele’s. I’m not sure if I did the right thing though. I can see him wanting it, having to withdraw it and never actually getting paid for it!
  2. Markbass Ninja 122 8ohm 800w 8ohm cab in great condition, comes with a thick quality Hotcovers cover. £400. May trade for Barefaced. https://www.andertons.co.uk/amps/bass-amps/bass-amp-cabs/markbass-new-york-122-ninja-8-ohm-2-x-12-bass-cab I’m based in Blackburn Lancs, any trial welcome. Could look into postage as I’ve got the original shipping box. Shipping would be at buyers cost and risk. Cash on collection or bank transfer please. Any questions please ask. Will try and get some clearer pics up.
  3. I bought this just before lockdown and it’s never been used apart from a couple of hours of setting it up in Logic X. Great piece of kit and capable of great things but it just isn’t getting any use at all. These retail around £570 now plus the base and clamp cost an extra £75, then there’s the price of the stand on top of that. Probably around £700 all in todays money. I have foolishly lost the box but it will be well packed if a buyer wishes to arrange their own courier or collect in person and trial. A meet up within reason is possible too. I’m in Blackburn Lancs. Looking to sell or trade for a loud lightweight combo (Markbass type of thing) or perhaps an 8ohm Barefaced cab. Open to suggestion though.
  4. Did a trade with Mark. Swapped my Trace for a Jazz body. It arrived well packed, quickly and exactly as described too. Great all round experience really. Good communication, nice fella to deal with. What more could we BC’ers ask for? Deal with confidence. Thanks again Mark. Cheers Dunc
  5. Bought some strings from Jon. Great transaction and everything went as good as it could have done. Thanks Jon and please accept my apologies for a somewhat delay in the feedback. Cheers Dunc

    Gar feedback

    Sold Gareth some drum triggers. Instant payment and a pleasant fella to deal with. Thanks very much Gareth and please accept my apologies for the somewhat late feedback. Cheers Dunc
  7. Bought a Jazz neck from Lee. Great transaction. Everything went well and the neck arrived quickly and exactly as described. Thanks Lee and sorry about the somewhat late feedback. Cheers Dunc
  8. I totally agree! A take a step backwards type of thing. I saw The Good The Bad and The Queen and (although I strongly suspect Ampeg) Simonons bass had the same feel. The bass sound at that gig was truly remarkable.
  9. My weirdo of a Mrs has one on our bed. The fekin thing keeps me awake by tangling around my feet. She reckons it can’t go lengthways and has to go from side to side on the bed. Well, it doesn’t any more and she complains about it. It can’t even go below a bed sheet as she’s been told it’s rendered ineffective WTF? Dolt even asked why she doesn’t get a shock as it’s plugged into the mains. Her mum bought some expensive plug testy gadget for her to test it’s safety!!!!! They come in pairs you know. I’ve forgotten more painful experiences about the useless elecricless blanket than I care to remember. By the way, she’s an insomniac that worries about everything. She even worries about not worrying about something will worry her and keep her awake. Floatation, yoga, up and down at all fekin hours ringing bells. Ommmm. The only way one of those rip off items will ever aid her sleep and make her relax is for me to rewire the useless heap of crepe 😂
  10. Might be wrong but I thought the Elitist had ‘Elitist’ on the truss rod cover and an Elitist badge thingy on the back where this one says Custom Shop.
  11. I saw the Strat version a couple of weeks ago. Looks a nice piece of kit too. They are good at the acoustic thing!
  12. It’s in the description 😁 - Weight: 29.1 lbs / 13.2 Kg Width: 17.72 in. / 45 cm Height: 17.72 in. / 45 cm Depth: 16.89 in. / 43 cm
  13. On Hold while I decide whether to keep it. Been having a noodle with it and I'd forgotten how good it is!
  14. He who cannot not be named has it. He has done a bit of work to disguise it though -
  15. I once run a rehearsal room. It cost more for the business rates than it did for the rent of the building. Water rates and electric charges were a joke too. A somewhat labour of love I suppose. This is where I found out that nearly every band on earth has at least 3 butt holes. They’d book in and literally turn up with no money to pay and expect to rehearse and owe the money. No amps,drums, leads and not so much as a plectrum between them. They were like scavengers. Every band had at least one member who was ok though so it wasn’t all bad. That was about 15 years ago and I still get a bit of bad press for being a twot and a snob over some of the stuff that went on 😂 In the end, I wouldn’t let them rehearse without money up front. So, they called me a twot. When I replied “I wouldn’t waste your money because you’re crepe anyway”, I became a snob 😂😂 A horrible thankless, poverty stricken business that I hope I never get involved with again.
  16. I’ve always thought that, if everything at a live performance sounded like the record, then the band may as well mime. Or maybe, is it a who’s the best at karaoke event? I remember a sound engineer I know, went to see Soul 2 Soul (I think) in the early 90’s. He was enraged and felt robbed because they didn’t use any samplers and loops etc that night. They had real musicians playing real instruments instead though! Wasn’t enough for him as he wanted all the technology out so they could sound like the record. The profanity filter won’t let me write what I thought about him at the time 😂
  17. Those pointy bits are going to be the cause of many a popped scrotum. Let’s hope Ibanez ship with cricket boxes as standard. 😂
