  1. Bought a small pedalboard from Andy, arrived quickly and saved me the hassle of making one so thanks!
  2. Bought a sweet set of Seymour Duncans off Pete, nice guy!
  3. It might also mean they do a lot of travelling. When we did the franchise circuit it was great not having to cart a PA about and set up, however it also meant we spent a lot of time on the road.
  4. That Corvette is stunning! Been thinking about getting rid of my Zoot to buy a used black Corvette $$, I want one even more now!
  5. Great stuff, you sound overjoyed!
  6. Not heard anything from Paul so these are still up for grabs. Some proper classics here, great for netbooks and older laptops
  7. I like it and I usually hate mobile sites! The pros definitely outweigh the cons IMO
  8. It certainly is! I bought the Gold edition for 99p a while ago so my original version is up for grabs. Miles better than the recent remake, it's a genuinely creepy game.
  9. Oh I also have the first Alien vs Predator if you want that too. Again runs on anything and is ace.
  10. Yeah they're still available, just pm me your details and I'll get them sent tommorrow. I also have Dungeon Siege if you want, it's all boxed but CD1 is not original (lost ages ago!). Also let me know if you want the They Hunger HL mod and any nocd files (I have all these somewhere). Ta Steve
  11. [quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1321900663' post='1444260'] Hey, not only did someone bid on the truncated brown bass monstrosity he was selling, but they've posted feedback saying they were satisfied with it! The mind boggles... [/quote] Maybe they left feedback before trying to tune it and play above the 1st fret? The "custom" Aria is relisted at £89. If you had a box of sandpaper, a spare J pickup, a set of tuners and lots of time it might only be £50 overpriced.... Still, there's always the out of date rubbers eh?
  12. I'm really liking the look of this now, certainly individual! Good stuff.
  13. There's this silly-cheap BFM in the FS section: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/159966-fs-bill-fitzmaurice-2x-jack-10-in-single-cabl180/ Don't forget the EAD cabs too.
  14. Well the thrown together Aria has been reduced to the bargain price of £250 and some poor soul has stuck a bid on the red monster!
  15. [quote name='citymariner' timestamp='1321478223' post='1439766'] It's how it is sitting in the mix - other stuff is interfering etc. [/quote] This. I tried loads of overdrives and fuzzes before settling on the ones that sounded right in the band. Because our drummer had a very mid-heavy sounding kit (ie taking up all my space!) certain pedals just didn't cut it at gig volume. Obviously some pedals are more versatile and can be tailored to suit but some have very specific voicings which don't fit every player/band. I bought and sold most of them on here so didn't lose any money when trading them to find out which ones suited me the best, that's an ideal way of doing it. Pedals can be an expensive and addictive hobby! Now I've narrowed my board down to the minimal pedals I need to get the sounds I want at gigs. When you get a keeper you know about it!
  16. I've just replaced this with a new one so I thought I'd see if anyone on here wants it before Freecycle and then the bin. It's an Algarde Power centre which consolidates all your aquarium appliances into one plug with switching options for two of them. There's connections for a heater (with seperate thermostat if required), lights, pump and a spare. The lights and pump have on/off switches. However: - It doesn't come with the mounting bracket. No worries as it still works fine and the base plate can be drilled for mounting. - There's no mains lead, they don't come with one so you'll have to get a cable and plug from somewhere. - One of the on/off switches is sticky and won't stay on without tape. Dunno whether this could be fixed or just glued down if you don't need the switch. - The screws/threads have seen better days (it's over a decade old!) and you may need to bodge to get it screwed down tight. i used slivers of rubber so the screw would grip. It does work fine and is quite an elegant solution to all those untidy cables. I'll do a photocopy of the wiring diagram (I've just bought a new one) and include that too. Ta! Steve
  17. [quote name='Monckyman' timestamp='1321395107' post='1438740'] I thought the Grammas used Neoprene which explains the price? [/quote] It's this stuff: [url="http://www.studiospares.com/sound-insulation/auralex-platfoam/invt/461330/"]http://www.studiospa...am/invt/461330/[/url] Annoyingly it doesn't say how long a strip you get so you may need to buy two or more
  18. Thought some of you might be interested in this, i know their amp covers are popular on here and now would seem a great time to buy one! http://www.amplifiercoversonline.com/zencart/index.php The site still makes your eyes bleed though, makes me want to order a cover to put over my laptop.
  19. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1321311889' post='1437808'] depending how you read that they could be used and then put back in the packets and re sealed... [/quote] I did think that but couldn't really find a way to word it without being a little bit sick in my mouth
  20. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1321275846' post='1437149'] Because of the added sustain thats how it was found, it was still ringing out from the last time John went in the loft and caught the A string putting back a box of christmas decorations. [/quote]
  21. I have these going spare as I have acquired duplicates on compilations. Soldier of Fortune is older and will work on pretty much anything (Quake 2 engine), runs fine on netbooks. Unreal Tournament 2004 works on pretty much anything with a video card. There's also Half Life GOTY edition which includes Team Fortress and an add on CD. I can stick the They Hunger zombie total conversion mod on a CD too if you want. Ta Steve
  22. [i]"who claimed he recovered it from the loft of John Entwistle's old home, better know as the Ox. Can't verify that"[/i] Why bloody mention it then? It really gets my goat when a provenance is hinted at with no effort or intention to verify it. As if namedropping a famous deceased player and alluding to a tenuous link between them and the instrument in the listing somehow adds value to it.
  23. [quote name='Nibody' timestamp='1321213847' post='1436618'] They obviously didnt work, as he had to sell his out of date condoms (obviously too big or just unused..) [/quote] [b][font="Arial"][size="2"]"(please note that these condoms are out of date...please do not be put off as are all perfectly sealed and packaged as new plus i use them).[/size][/font][/b]" What a bizarre thing to list on eBay! Who actually buys out of date johnny bags?
