Your reply looks perfectly acceptable and plausible to me; in fact it is exactly the kind of thing that I might have sent off if I were in a position where I was unsure about the future of my current band and was looking for something else and maybe wanted to know a bit more about this band before committing. I'd say that if their response is indicative of their general demeanor then you're better off well out of it.

[quote name='dragan' timestamp='1361465210' post='1986135'] I should lost ownership on the bass so you would share sympathy,eh? [b]" €3000 is a lot of cash for a bass & IMHO the guy couldn't commit to that kind of outlay without physically seeing it, no matter how good the pics are." [/b]-that goes in his defense? as I said, I am not robbed,but like clearly pointed - this guy saw bunch of photos,he presented him self as a Vox admirer,he clearly stated that he is buying the bass if I just arrange delivery. He said he is playing Vox Phantom bass for well over 35 years and he desperately wants to buy the one. He didnt said[i] "If you deliver, I will check and think,he said - I am buying the bass,do you need a cash deposit first[/i]"etc etc... Thank You Kevin and others!!! [/quote] Hang fire mate before you start 'picking' friends and alienating others! Folks may well contribute to this thread that have seen a great many similar threads and they MAY know from experience that not everything is always clear cut. Some of us have been around the block a few times and it can pay to offer perspectives to help others. IF the guy only had £1000 in his pocket and fully intended to bat you down then that is NOT on however if he had some cash and was going to go get the rest from the bank but on seeing the bass decided that it wasn't as described then he is well within his rights to walk away... just saying.

...and now can we hear from XXXX? Oh and IBTL

Bargain! Me thinks the decimal point has gone in the wrong place!

[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1361437479' post='1985827'] havent seen one of those trace 4 x 5(?) cabs in aeons [/quote] IIRC they (imaginatively) called them 'Bright Boxes'.

[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1361436643' post='1985816'] is it punky meadows ? [/quote] There must be a limited number of folks will know the answer to that (without the aid of Google) and I'm one of them... NO!

Interesting that the ML is neo loaded yet is only a couple of lb lighter than my similar sized/spec DB112. Folks often get hung up on the weight saving of neo... not really 'that' much difference!

Have you checked the Warwick site/shop?

'Found in the attic'... well I never!

[quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1361208049' post='1982810'] Is the posting Kosher, been a few dodgy ones recently? [/quote] He's sold a couple of music items previously (as opposed to someone who normally sells children's clothes/cars/tat) but ultimately he has put collection only and the price looks about right... I wouldn't be buying blind but doesn't set major alarm bells off.

I bid £340 on that when it was up last week but wasn't prepared to go that bit further when it was relisted; I suppose it is worth what someone will pay!

OK he has a few details in the listing (a few) but to not even put in a key word like 'Wal' in the title is not going to help searchers find it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bass-guitar-/281066902338?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4170e49342

[quote name='lobematt' timestamp='1361190807' post='1982400'] Wow ok! Thanks for that guys! Barefaced one doesn't look too expensive either! On that site it says that the recommended amp power is 150 - 600W, does that mean if I did pair it with a 1000W head I might blow it?? [/quote] Highly unlikely especially as amps come equipped with a dial that allows them to go quieter as well as louder!

I'm still waiting for that set-list Michael; you know it makes sense to have a dep waiting in the wings 'just in case' you have an unfortunate... accident! Well dome mate, look forward to the post gig report.

[quote name='FrederikVanDuuren' timestamp='1361111213' post='1981149'] a fretless, stays a fretless always [/quote] A Zon maybe... I'll just have to fret my 'W' Dolphin up!

[quote name='FrederikVanDuuren' timestamp='1361098893' post='1980927'] Yes i could sell my Zon Sonus [/quote] Can you stick some frets in it or sell it cheap enough that I can!
