    I think I have chosen the wrong time to sell this bass so I am withdrawing from sale and will re-consider when the market is a bit more active

    Just a gentle reminder of our next gig in one week's time - see post above for a taster. We will be onstage at 8.30pm

    Daily bump. I know this is a pricey bass and money is scarce so I would be prepared to listen to payment options (upfront plus payments over say three months) from BC'ers that I either know well or who have an excellent reputation/feedback

    [quote name='Clarky' post='1146243' date='Mar 1 2011, 07:03 PM']I will take your caps lock kind sir. I am the son of the former justice minister of a small African Republic which must remain nameless. My father and family were all killed by a trained rhinoceros in the pay of the cruel dictator of our Republic. With my father's last words he gave me the details of a bank account into which he had deposited ONE MILLION DOLLARS with instructions that I should only share this money with a person of the highest caps lock. I will send you half of the ONE MILLION DOLLARS if you send me the caps lock key to Post Box 5457, Nigeria together with your bank account number, sort code and PIN number. I thank you kind sir for answering my prayers and the last wishes of my dying father.[/quote] Good sir, please read my message. ONE MILLION POUNDS awaits. Do not let the Dictator and his rhino emerge with victory.

    Feedback for Sibob

    Clarky replied to Sibob's topic in Feedback

    Si just sold me a vintage Fender bridge. As you would expect from this throughly decent fellow, it came swiftly and packed really well and I am chuffed with the item itself. Nice one Si and I am happy to add to your growing feedback thread - just four more pages and you will catch up with me

    Don't give up Alasdair, I can guarantee I am more cr@p at bass than you are but just got lucky with my band. Right place, right time. It will surely happen to you too PS, from my own experience I know you are not a social misfit!

    Maybe join a Norwegian black metal band instead, Nige? I've already found a singer for you [attachment=73747:norwegia...es_of__1.jpg]

    Please note that - as there are a bunch of BassChatters in Brussels and Paris - I will be staying over in each of those cities in the next few weeks so could deliver the bass. I will be in Brussels next Tuesday evening and in Paris on evening of 7 April.

    Bump for some additional pics posted last night ^^^^

    I read the title as if you had already killed at least one bassist and assumed it was a cry for help

    Discovered some more photos of the bass taken by the prior US owner from his Talkbass FS thread. The condition today is as immaculate as you see here: [attachment=73722:AC4_004.jpg][attachment=73720:AC4_001.jpg]

    Early morning bump from freezing Helsinki where I cannot face smoked fish for breakfast

    Tuesday bump, adding that would trade against a sunburst 63 Precision as well as oly white. Off to the lands of pickled herrings and smorgasbord, yay! So, as mentioned in OP, I may not pick up PMs in an especially timely manner in next couple of days
  15. Clarky
    Thanks Andy and Loz. It is the best bass I have ever owned so it seems perverse selling it, but I have a weird psychological calling to a year-of-birth Fender ... and I am of a certain age that means that would be a pre-CBS (and thus pricey) option!

    Blimey, old thread resuscitation award! These were sold in June 2009

    [quote name='arsenic' post='1144263' date='Feb 28 2011, 10:56 AM']Just listened to some more of your stuff on MySpace and YouTube - really like it. Mrs. A loves the promo video - who was the director? She has just commented that she would like to see some of their other work (I guess she's a bit "arty" as well). I love the whole Baron Samedi and his Zombie musicians thing you have going on there.[/quote] Thanks! The director is Christian Murray, who came to us through shared contacts on the South Coast (half of the band are from the Brighton/Chichester/Bognor stretch of the coast and we recorded it at the theatre in Chichester University). Cost us nothing as the drummer is a lecturer at the Uni and the director did it as a favour

    Here's our other Youtube clip - not really a video, lots of live shots set against a cover of the old song 'Speaking of happiness'. This and 'Rain on my foosteps' are our two slow, moody songs - we do more up tempo stuff as well

    [quote name='Happy Jack' post='1144194' date='Feb 28 2011, 09:46 AM']What was the cameraman doing when he did that shot down your fretboard? [/quote] That was quite ridiculous - the director was very 'arty' and so for that shot I had to play the DB at a stupid angle (45 degrees to the ground) so he could point the camera down the neck! The whole video took about 5 hours to shoot as there were so many angles

    Here's a taster of Rattlin Bone - our new video and another Youtube clip, featuring live photos

    Thanks Barrie! Monday morning bump

    Incidentally here is loz' FS thread with some more details than mine (eg, it was made in June 2008) [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=100561&hl=lozbass+Alleva"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...=lozbass+Alleva[/url]

    Thanks Jack, it was playing your lightweight, superb sounding '66 Fender Precision yesterday that tipped me over the edge and prompted me to renew my longstanding (but never-done-anything-about-it) search for a Y-O-B (1963) Precision
