[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1404807551' post='2495795'] Yes. A 'For Sale' post with no pics or 'pics to come later' confuses and infuriates me - and I won't have anything to do with it. When I sell stuff on here it's always with a lot of detailed pics and a full description of the item, its location and how it will be packed and despatched. I'm generally a lazy git so my view is, if I can be bothered then other people should be too! Just listing a bass (for example) and a price with no pics or info is a turn-off for me. [/quote] I've done this a couple of times, not all of us have a smart phone or digital camera, so taking a pic then putting it on the line is a pita for me. I'd rather put up an item for sale with full description and pics to follow, than have to wait.

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1404802072' post='2495729'] I've only ever had positive experiences with both buying and selling on BC. My only slight issue is people not leaving feedback... I solds three cabs in a week a little while back and left three lots of feedback... got nothing back from any of them. [/quote] If you haven't already done so, send them a gentle reminder via pm with a link to your feedback page.

[quote name='norvegicusbass' timestamp='1404681523' post='2494734'] Of me or the bass? [/quote] Both

[quote name='norvegicusbass' timestamp='1404680793' post='2494715'] A bloke at work who I hardly know has given me a bass for free. He said he has given up the bass in favour of a six string lead guitar and had heard I play a bit of bass so he brought it in and gave it to me . It has a lovely growly tone and even my pick playing sounds good on it. Random acts of kindness wonderful arent they? [/quote] Pics?

last night I got paid to go to a beer festival and drink free beer and do a gig with my mates. Living the dream baby

Being able to twirl the drumsticks while keeping time.

Absolutely no interest in going as a punter, but would love to play there.

If it's not good enough for Pino anymore it's not good enough for me.

No need to go through the PA then? Bootsy is the man though.

The Boss ME-50B has a patch which is bass with overdriven signal an octave higher. The original signal can be dry and you can control the distortion levels. Great for playing Iron Maiden songs if you only have one guitarist!

IIRC The Police got their deal, because they decided to play when only 3 people had turned up. One of them was the A&R guy who signed them.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1400264784' post='2452487'] Just to let you all know that I've listened to all the mixes and voted for my favourite one at some point during the last week. There's a lot of interesting interpretations, and I'll give you all my full views once the results have been announced. [/quote] Have the rest of the band heard them?

for me it's about convenience. One pedal or fx unit to rule them all as it were. As I play bass and guitar I'm current using a J-Station as it has amp sims for both and fits nicely in my gig bag.

once the voting is in, it will be interesting to find out which BRX and the band favour.

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1399664203' post='2446533'] I really liked the loudest one ;-) [/quote] me too, which is why i listened to them all first with headphones, and then cranked up through my studio monitors. Kudos to all who did the mixes. I may have studio monitors, but it's all i can do to switch them on.

for me it was between 6 & 9. 6 edged it for having slightly more b0ll0x. IMO of course.

machine gun etiquette for me. Great bass riff to kick the album off on Love Song. Love the Damned in all of their inceptions. Probably the band i've seen live the most.

Fendery, fat Jazz?

i use 11's, i play lead with plenty of bending. The only reason i'm not using 12's is because i can only find packs with wound G strings. What do you guys using 12 & 13's use?

no interest in this amp then? consider i suprised. Ideally i'd like to hear one in a gig situation (bass) or at least be able to try one but really wind up the volume.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1399030161' post='2440148'] Yep, the Malcolm Young Technique of keeping it tight and simple is one that is overlooked by many, and not just on guitar. [/quote] Wouldn't necessarily call Malcolm's playing simple. He often uses inversions and different chords voicings. It's one of the reasons there are so many bands doing bad AC/DC covers.
