I can't see anything useful! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bass-guitar-parts-job-lot-/131509716878?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1e9e97078e

I used to put it in the front room that wasn't used much but the mrs nicked it for a work room. Then it went in the back room but she went German on me as I was using the spot for the dogs bed! Under the stairs then? No wasn't practical for her. Eventually, I finally got some heating in the conservatory that has a small back room attached. Ah ha! What could possibly go wrong? She wanted a downstairs toilet in there! It's now in the conservatory itself and the basses hang on the landing wall. Hopefully she can overlook a Barefaced Midget, a TC head and a briefcase! No doubt the saga will continue though....

Just bought an HB head from Paul. Arrived superfast in superdooper packaging. Great communication and an all round excellent transaction. Jolly nice chap too. Thanks Paul.... Dunc

Looks like a bit of a jigsaw...

Welcome! Something in common here (ish) I've just moved to a TC 450 Classic and a Barefaced Midget!

[quote name='Mr H' timestamp='1431199803' post='2768802'] The b-side of [i]London Calling[/i] by The Clash was their very wonderful version of the very wonderful [i][b]Armagideon Time[/b].[/i] I just found a box of 7" singles this afternoon, I should have a look through and see what other good b-sides turn up. EDIT: Found some more. Faith No More - [i]A Small Victory[/i] b/w [b][i]Let's Lynch The Landlord[/i][/b] Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood - [i]Lady Bird[/i] b/w [i][b]Sand[/b][/i] Elvis Costello - [i]Oliver's Army[/i] b/w [b]My Funny Valentine[/b] Killing Joke - [i]Requiem[/i] b/w [i][b]Change[/b][/i] Darts - [i]Come back My Love[/i] b/w [i][b]Naff Off[/b][/i] [/quote] The Clash had some great B sides and so did the Pistols (not the Rock and Roll Swindle farce). Killing Joke too...

A lad I know had a band called The Urban Valley Chickens.

They look better than these - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Drum-Stick-Key-Ring-Accessory-/151590404727?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item234b7e0277 These look like old clothes pegs!

Looks like Terry Butcher is selling off his bass gear then...

[quote name='jimbaby' timestamp='1430470345' post='2761648'] Lucky you only knocked three over, did he have plenty more ? [/quote] He had more before he could continue!

Had a few deals with Paul lately and this last one couldn't have been better. I bought his TC head and BF Midget cab. Both exactly as he described and arrived very quickly in bulletproof packaging. Paul's a great guy to deal with, with loads of patience and excellent communication skills. You can't go wrong here! Thanks again Paul for a great experience and transaction. Cheers Dunc

The rehearsal studio is being renovated at the moment so we needed some mics. Bought 3 Behringer in a case with clips for £25.00. They do everything the SM58's do in the studio. Sound more than good enough to rehearse with and we can get more volume out of them before feedback too. I dont think you could abuse them as much though. Definitely not as robust.

My Mrs just looked at the T-shirt and thought it said "I'm a Basset's wife". There could be some truth in that!

I knocked over three pints of the singers Guinness. Luckily he thought it was somebody in the crowd. I cant repeat what he was shouting at the audience. He is very protective of his Guinness...

Clash band! We have no chance of looking like them but we try our best to sound like them. Formed by accident to do one gig 7 years ago! Named after the Clash tour On Parole. Only thing is some band in the States is called that too...

Been having a look on the net and it looks to be ok http://www.bass-guitar-museum.com/bass-7257-Fender-Precision-Bass-Special-USA-California-Series I thought the tuners would have at least have Fender on them? I think I had a Mex that had the small tuners and no logo. Maybe there's a few Mexican parts on these as well? The neckplate doesn't look like it's got anything on it either? Not very 'special' then...

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1430234187' post='2759292'] Without a doubt: A Classic 50 Fender Precision. Made in Mexico, but nothing like the standard MIM range. I bought one in October last year and I barely touch anything else since. Fantastic basses. [/quote] +1 Brilliant basses. Every bit as good as a USA. Haggle on a Squier JV too if you can, better than USA in my humble opinion...
