  1. I hate using Skype. There's always a small delay which makes it extremely difficult to talk.
  2. You should go
  3. I just visit via safari and force mobile view, so I can upload pics from computer.
  4. Finally - I'm posting a couple of basses every day that have been listed on our marketplace. I always ask permission beforehand. I choose adverts with nice pictures but also interesting looking equipment. Please follow us - I'm OK with posting and tagging etc but not so good at the sharing/re-gramming and social aspect of it so could use your help! Let me know what you think Cheers ped https://www.instagram.com/basschatuk/
  5. I visit a few watch forums and theres a podcast by ‘worm and wound’ - quite like it, it’s good to have on in the background. Just a couple of guys chatting about watches
  6. Interesting idea. Do we have any podcasters who would be willing to do a round up of the news and top arguments of the week?
  7. Contact a local tech to go and have an impartial look at the instrument. If it needs sorting, pay him to fix it. If it doesn't, ignore the shop.
  8. Ah I see. Hm yes I do this but the bass is headless so the string clamp isn't affected. I'll get my coat 😎
  9. Just chop regular scale strings down. Bend the string 90 degrees just before the bit you snip.
  10. Thank you this was reported and the user banned a few days ago.

    lovely collection. Are those rectangular cases official Vigier items, not seen those before. I know the cases that came with series II and IV but haven’t seen those ones.
  13. I haven't tried that one but it's probably OK. I'll have look when I get home and see if I have any 3M left, you're welcome to have it if there's some left. I originally bought it for fixing some roof lining in a car but not sure it survived the great cull of 2017 when moving house. Will PM you if I find it!!!
  14. I'd recommend a suitable spray adhesive. 3M do a good one. That'll make sure there are no bubbles and blobs behind the material.
  15. Just to confirm, user banned. It’s a Nigerian user who has done this a few times before so I’m talking to @charic about banning Nigerian IP. Thanks!
  16. Report it please.
  17. Have you reported the offending items? We will move them without delay but cannot be expected to monitor it ourselves.

    Anything graphite is OK with me

    Vigier Porn!

    I very nearly bought a Bogart - really like the headless ones but with a kind of headstock shape at the end. They look really well made.
  20. Depending on how the image was embedded you can still see the pictures if you click the placeholder image. There are also browser plugins that will still display the image. So you can still read those old threads just about, but I agree their decision was baffling.
  21. Imgbb is the best imo.
  22. We always advise people to follow the safety advice posted in the marketplace. Did you report any of these con artists, because we deal with every single one and often act as a go between and resolve issues for people.
  23. Wow - lets hope he doesn't fix his own car!
  24. I think there are some albums missing and I'm always wary that Spotify might recommend certain artists for reasons other than my listening pleasure but taken with a pinch of salt it can be a useful tool. Most of the time I use it to search for a band I've heard of and have a quick listen, then dive in for a more detailed album-based approach to the band. Interesting point above about the lack of album based activity now - the kids at my school use iPads in class and often listen to music whilst working. 99% have playlists of individual songs (normally top 40) and when I say 'stick an album on and leave your iPad alone' they look at me as if to say WTF is an album. Many listen to things on youtube and nearly all use the standard Apple headphones. Having said that one chap has some decent Sennheisers that don't even fit into his bag and I saw him listening to RATM 'Evil Empire' the other day. Merit points given.
