  1. bump! One day £50-off offer to any BC-er with whom I have previously done business So thats £500 collected or £525 posted if I have given you some feedback in the past
  2. Andy bought a double bass string off me. All good! Can't believe there is no feedback thread for him, so I'm starting one
  3. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1386863664' post='2305619'] I was fond of Judas Priest's 'Unleashed in the East' ('Green Manalishi'!!) [/quote] Excellent - I also liked their (brave for a metal/rock band) Joan Baez cover, Diamonds and Rust on the accompanying vinyl EP to Unleashed in the East I also happened to see them at the Apollo on the UK leg of that door and got front row seats. I touched Rob's boot. Please psycho-analyse that
  4. We are actually the same person, although I find legging it between Wales and London is tiring, unless I hitch a ride on the Interparcel delivery van
  5. Bilbo, are you revving up for a GOD I LOVE 70'S HEAVY ROCK thread? FWIW, the young metal-head Clarky's favorite album of said genre was Sad Wings of Destiny by Judas Priest but I do enjoy Light in the Black and Stargazer (rest of album not so good IMHO)
  6. Ditto ^^^^^ Yep. Clarky. again. doing deal. with Beedster. again. top man. again
  7. [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1386849721' post='2305273'] What are your feelings about BF cabs? I don't know but I've just checked out his new Simplexx cabs. [/quote] I saw what you did there For the OP, Bill Fitzmaurice = BF as well as Barefaced = BF
  8. "Or near offer" type bump
  9. To be clear, the price of £575 includes post in UK. Will do for £550 handed over in London
  10. Hi I bought this beautiful 1994 MIJ bass only last month but my struggles with my damaged left hand continue and the neck is too chunky to be comfortable for me. I thought I could cope with a 1.625" nut width but alas no. The bass is exactly as in AndyBob09's advert here and is in amazing condition - only difference is I have added some Pyramid Gold flat wound strings for retro thump (although I can swap back for nickel rounds if the buyer prefers) [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/222115-sold-fender-precision-1951-reissue-sold/page__p__2280047__hl__1951%20reissue__fromsearch__1#entry2280047"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2280047[/url] I would like to get back the £575 I paid or very close. Can deliver (soft gig bag but cardboard box and loads of packing material) or hand over in London. Sale only; no trades, while I work out which basses I am comfortable to play Here are a couple of Andy's pics from the link above (hope thats OK?)

  11. Hey Steve, here is the ebay ad from Oz which has a bunch more pics [url="http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ALEMBIC-stanley-clarke-BROWN-BASS-/161154387667?pt=AU_Audio_CDs&hash=item25858cced3&nma=true&si=jWd8vO2G52qqA2h5wWXmPz6Yt6E%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557#ht_82wt_1399"]http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ALEMBIC-stanley-clarke-BROWN-BASS-/161154387667?pt=AU_Audio_CDs&hash=item25858cced3&nma=true&si=jWd8vO2G52qqA2h5wWXmPz6Yt6E%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557#ht_82wt_1399[/url]
  12. Dave (aka tinyd) just bought a double bass pickup from me. All excellent from start to finish! Recommended
  13. Yours matey!
  14. Well that told me. I'm off to double check whether my 2012 M&S boxer shorts were actually made that year
  15. TBH, I am struggling to give a toss here. Its a lovely old Jazz bass with history written all over it, played by a great bass player and it was made before everything was bar-coded and inter-webbed. So the best we have to go on is the word of the man who has owned it from new.
  16. [quote name='jazzyvee' timestamp='1386604991' post='2302050'] Yes Clarky you have a beauty there. How is the weight of it working for you? Jazzyvee [/quote] It weighs 9.8 pounds which is at the upper end of what I can cope with but is fine. Funnily enough I have no balance or on-strap issues with it, although a number of people had warned about this. A very wide Minotaur strap probably makes all the difference here
  17. NBD. A Brown Bass which I imported from a guy in Australia [attachment=150163:DSCF0619.JPG][attachment=150164:DSCF0620.jpg]
  18. Chris is in .north Wales
  19. Only surprising not to see Ian Dowie in that line-up Ps, looks like a ridic bargain, Beedster. the bridge and strings make up half or more of your price. Someone have this fast
  20. Hi all, we play Spice of Life in Soho on Saturday 11th Jan and The Finsbury (near Finsbury Park) on Thursday 16th Jan. We are headlining each and should be onstage at 10pm at Spice of Life, time tbc at Finsbury.

  21. BassGear have one on sale at £725 so could get it delivered and try it under 14-day distance selling regs. Plus you know Phil!
  22. Phil Jones does combos and cabs with 5" speakers and provides some technical thingummydoobery as to why these carry bass fundamentals so well. Don't understand myself. So you could check out say a PJB Briefcase or Cub for rehearsals or a Flightcase or Superflightcase for gigging?
  23. Hi Marc, the big trend on DB is to use small speakers - witness Mike Arnopol and Greenboy's in-vogue Crazy 8 and Crazy 88 cabs and the former's MA-45 (a 4x5" cab, as owned by TheRev on BC and bassace) Looks like mine might be sold to one of the usual suspects
  24. This is potentially sold
