I did the same with a knackered Kinsman combo I got for 99p on eBay, amp was fine but the rest of the amp was totally crushed (well it was made from what looks like pressed cardboard and sawdust!) and the speaker was shot (or just bad to begin with). Looks to be the same generic amp as yours. Still need to reshell it but it works brilliantly and I was able to reuse a lot of the screws and feet to keep costs down: Speakon/jack combi socket looks wonky but that's just the perspective, these seem to be predrilled for a jack socket but you can easliy widen it for a Speakon. Ended up costing me a total of £6.77 to have a micro head!

Or get in literally any car Mrs. Lemmywinks buys. Pretty sure she does it deliberately.

I only need a 34" leg as I'm long in the body, finding longline tshirts and shirts on the other hand is a royal PITA.

I'm 6'6", used to think I was 6'5" until I got properly measured and it turned out I was an inch taller, felt like I'd won something although I'm not sure what. A bit like earlier this year when I forgot my age and thought I was a year older for a few months. It was like I'd got an extra year of life when I realised.

That's some ambitious flipping!

I thought you meant Speakons or Jacks, for speaker leads I always go Speakon connectors. Even though I no longer use an amp for gigging I kept all my obbm cables, just in case!

But seriously I use Speakons over 1/4" jacks, they're more secure and robust which is what I want with cables carrying a signal from an amp. I've met tons of people who use the cheapest junk speaker leads with flimsy 1/4" jacks though, I bought various used Obbm Speakon cables off here ages ago and it was a good investment.

Why not have both and get a Neutrik jack? 😜

This, what a band that was.

This is also one of my favourites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjaThQCu58k

Bass playing would be massively different today without his influence.

Hohner B Bass: Carvin LB although availability over here won't be great but when they do come up they are one of the best value basses out there - often well under £500 for a high end bass:

Nice one that's great!

Had a chat with our guitarist and the DL32R we have doesn't support the Android app anyway, the DL32S does but not ours which is apparently waiting for a firmware update to enable it. So it looks like even using Bluestacks or an Android tab isn't an option anyway even if they did release Master Fader 5.1 which is very annoying. From looking at Play Store reviews the Android version seems extremely buggy too, kind of annoying when Behringer support most devices. Kind of expect better support from Mackie really. Guitarist said the DL32R hasn't had a firmware update in over a year, hope they don't abandon it. Ugh, really don't want to buy an Ipad!

Superb stuff, he's gone above and beyond there.

Still Rippon people off I see!

A - We already knew he had good feedback before you came on here, in fact most likely before you joined the forum. It's been be mentioned before. B - The information you shared was incorrect as not all of his customers are happy, I've twice quoted the buyer who reinforces the opinions here.

You've flippantly said this numerous times now and are alluding to people on here bullying a vulnerable person. Are you backing this up at all?

There are regular threads about his eBay listings because he consistently lists some of the crudest instruments you will ever see. That is the causal link here, not any sort of "feeding frenzy" as you put it. You're viewing this through a lens that people want to bully him which isn't true, we like laughing at badly bodged basses on eBay and this was the case before MDP picked up his angle grinder and feverently set about a plastic nut. It's done with other sellers too like the mad German guy who's listings get flagged and ripped to shreds due to how terrible they are. I don't see anybody leaping to his defences though, at least be consistent.

There's no reason to assume those things would be mutually exclusive, although I don't think the feedback is fake at all. Do you not think it is logical that only total novices would even consider buying his instruments? We've all bought rubbish when we didn't know any better, my first bass was crap but I thought it was pretty good at the time, same with my first Trace combo which I thought was the bees knees in the shop. I also already pointed out one customer who basically reiterated everything pointed out in this thread on his feedback, the guy who left a neutral citing " workmanship quality horrible shocking ! Rework required ". That's someone who bought a guitar and found it to be as bad as it looked. Btw he probably left neutral feedback because a full return was accepted I would think, I've done that before when I've bought something which was not as described but the seller sorted problems quickly.

How is any of this online bullying? It's people commenting on the woeful standards of workmanship on instruments which are being sold by a guy with a company name, a guy who does this for a living. As I pointed out in reply to your last comment the moment someone did get a bit personal the very same people who criticise his insruments pulled that poster back. Go check it if you don't believe me, you won't (confirmation bias and all that) but it's there. Has it genuinely got to the stage when having a giggle at an incredibly badly put together instrument and the hilarious terms used to promote it is classed as "online bullying"? Are you actually for real here? I think it's also been pointed out to you in a previous thread the last time you white knighted this guy that when people do politely message him he replies in a very arrogant and rude manner. As I see it these threads are totally valid, if MDP doesn't like them then he can always improve his skills. That option was there for him years ago when he first started selling guitars and it's still there now.

It isn't at all, it's a logical assumption. It isn't there to support a pre-existing bias which is what you seem to be getting at, it's a pretty obvious connection to make given the state of his instruments. What are your views, do you agree with me or otherwise? Do you think musicians who know what a decent guitar looks like are buying his products?

Do you not think his listings will automatically filter out anybody who knows about how guitars should be constructed or even those with basic woodworking knowledge? Surely you don't think anybody other than a total novice would browse what he has for sale and do anything other than laugh their b0ll0cks off? We have a guy in my local neighbourhood who sells old laptops at carboot sales, I see him every time I have a stroll around so he's probably there every week. Big table full of old consumer grade Pentium M and Core 2 Duos from XP to Vista eras, nothing you'd pay more than £35 for if you needed a basic laptop and you were skint. His strategy is remarkably similar to MDP's - massively inflated price tag (£140 for an old HP Core 2 Duo and £69 for a Celeron M Compaq last time I looked) and a label attached with sales guff proclaiming the programs he's installed and the effort put into setting it up. His customers seem to be mainly older folk who have no issue paying well over the odds as they trust the local computer expert and his sales patter over a faceless online store front. Literally nobody who knows what they are looking at would even consider buying one and would instantly recognise it as someone trying to gouge money by misrepresenting a product, thus any knowledgeable buyers are instantly filtered out. MDP's listings have the same effect IMO, nobody who has been playing in any sort of semi-serious capacity and has gained even the tiniest bit of knowledge would think those instruments were worth more than 20% of the asking price. The only people clicking BIN are novices.

That doesn't answer the question really, we aren't talking about general eBay precautions. We're talking about a specific listing which shows some extremely poor workmanship which someone who trusts you is asking for advice on, that's why it's a good way to determine what you actually think about his selling practices rather than what you think you should be thinking. If someone showed you a link to that slapdash Grabber clone/Legacy cut and shut thing would you say "yeah sure, that looks a good bet for just shy of £250 delivered" or would you say "how long a barge pole do you have"? It's actually a really easy question to answer, I would give it the thumbs down just from looking at the first few pictures. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bass-guitar-with-EB3-single-and-Musicman-twin-coil-pickups/193044925422?hash=item2cf25fcbee:g:93wAAOSwMHpdUWhO
