Loving the Orange one but you worked with Arsenal (spits)

[quote name='Linus27' post='351279' date='Dec 10 2008, 09:51 PM']Well, I am just happy that we caught a fraudster. There are enough tossers out there trying to rip inocent people off. We should all be happy that we did this. The only thing that caught my eye was the headstock looked the wrong shape, which was a little geeky of me. Also the sticker clearly looked wrong, the top horn looked a bit pointy and the body looked a bit thin. It was the other guys who noticed the more technical details like the bridge and pickups. So a great team effect with a great result.[/quote] Indeed fake pints all round. And +1 on BB's post I wanna see some pre EB Stingrays.

[quote name='Stag' post='351198' date='Dec 10 2008, 08:43 PM']High praise indeed Wayne... ill see what little cash I have left after Chrimbo and see... ...funnily enough you also appear to have the same Trace head as me[/quote] I used to have but I sold it, the Ampeg has a far better sound to my ears.

[quote name='Linus27' post='351270' date='Dec 10 2008, 09:38 PM']Hi Shonks, great to see you made it here. I am Linus27 on here and first alerted this clever lot to what i thought was a fake. I am 27Renault who also contacted you on Ebay. Really pleased you have not parted with your money. As you can see from the above comments, it sure is a fake.[/quote] I bet you got a real boost from this, good spot.

Even if the pictures and info didn't give it away, ending and selling to the highest bidder certainly does.

[quote name='hrl_damo' post='351256' date='Dec 10 2008, 09:32 PM']Hey everyone, My band are looking to record an EP in January. It will probably be a 4 track CD which we hope to sell for a very very small fee at gigs. Basically I am looking into covers for EP, for example I dont know whetehr to go for Jewel case with CD inlay etc or just a standard card sleeve thing with some sort of art work on it. Want it to look good but not too dear as we would rather spend the money on getting the recording top notch first. Any ideas for printing places? Or which you think is the cheapest and best way to get some results... Any ideas appreciated. By the way my bands myspace is www.myspace.com/hoperemainslost if you fancy a listen ) Cheerz Damien[/quote] We got charged £145 for 100 cd's with Jewell cases and artwork not sure if that is cheap?

It gives you a warm fuzzy feeling.

I do enjoy pressuring these c*nts.

[quote name='budget bassist' post='351186' date='Dec 10 2008, 08:22 PM']He knows it's a fake. If he claims to have owned it from new then he KNOWS it's a fake.[/quote] I agree, he is saying to me he got it from Sound Control.

[quote name='Stag' post='351144' date='Dec 10 2008, 07:30 PM']All Ampeg stories welcome... :-) Seriously considering the B2-RE as a viable option as it appears my Trace has "issues".[/quote] I've had mine for 2 months and I've never had or played through a better amp.

I'm in a dialogue with him on eBay, he claims he doesn't know it's a fake and I have pointed him in this direction hopefully he does the right thing and pulls it.

[quote name='lemmywinks' post='351118' date='Dec 10 2008, 07:02 PM']I'm 5 mins away from fleetwood........ And yes it is an absolute dive![/quote] I heard it was about mins away from one

[quote name='BassManKev' post='351123' date='Dec 10 2008, 07:04 PM'] have a read of this reply: [i]Thanks for the info but I am sorry to say you are wrong. This was custom made to my liking in the 70s with the custom body type and I was not to sure of the specifications but I added in my own of what I saw on the other site. If you think the specs are wrong please let me know and I will be happy to change it. [/i] deary, deary me, reported[/quote] I just got a response to my question. "Hi there Can I have some close up pictures of the headstock and pick ups? also the neck plate? Cheers" "The neck plate has been replaced because it was damaged.. Sorry."

Man is a legend.

[quote name='cheddatom' post='350960' date='Dec 10 2008, 04:16 PM']Last night?? So that's why i'm walking like john wayne![/quote] I'm suprised you're walking.

[quote name='cheddatom' post='350941' date='Dec 10 2008, 04:09 PM']I thought you guys were with me but you're being sarcastic aren't you!!! Don't you get it?? The internet is serious business![/quote] I was with you.

[quote name='lateralus462' post='350929' date='Dec 10 2008, 04:00 PM']ok - I can understand that, but maybe you should start a poll just to see how much of a toss you should give?[/quote] tBBC can get you one he is going out there on Friday.

[quote name='lateralus462' post='350895' date='Dec 10 2008, 03:43 PM']I find that sort of attitude deeply deeply offensive[/quote] You should complain about it

[quote name='Jesus' post='350593' date='Dec 10 2008, 12:29 PM']Right i bit the bullet and ordered the Aria P-bass for £110 delivered. With the money saved ive managed to grab a leather strap (my current one is nylon and very thin), and new stand, and a Digiitech BP80 pedal secondhand from LowBlow. Dont ask me why i chose Aria over Johnson, i think it was the headstock, or maybe that my righty was a Aria Pro II.[/quote] Nice one mate hope it serves you well, nothing on this earth like a P Bass (why the f*** did I buy a Jazz?) How you going to play with those holes in your hands?

[quote name='neepheid' post='350769' date='Dec 10 2008, 02:32 PM']I've reported it to eBay. I'm going to be mean spirited and assume that the seller knows damn well what he/she is doing.[/quote] I don't think I have ever seen a Stingray with "100% Genuine" on it, that makes me think the seller knows what he/she is doing.

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='350741' date='Dec 10 2008, 02:11 PM']Definitely a fake, not even a particularly good copy although the body shape is better than a lot of other copies I’ve seen. Everything that’s wrong has been mentioned above, and I’m sure there are other things that I’ve not spotted yet. Has anyone contacted the seller?[/quote] I have, waiting for a reply. How boring am I?

A mate of mine has cheap (I want to say Peavey but can't be sure) that looks exactly the same.

"This is a genuine Music Man String Ray bass"

Not an expert but it doesn't look right to me. This is a bit suss, "This is a genuine Music Man String Ray bass"
