[quote name='BigAlonBass' timestamp='1363511532' post='2013406'] Johnny (the) Depp strikes again! Glad you enjoyed yourself, mate. [/quote] You know the lads Al, top class fellas and the drummerist (dep) was some fella; I've played/play with lots of good uns but at 24 hrs notice this guy was on the money and his chops were absolutely top draw.

That was a blast! Nothing like playing a medley of songs to have the guitarist/singer start a Zep track that you have never tried to play in your life... certainly focuses the mind. Saying that when you play with quality musicians it makes it much easier to 'busk' stuff. The AE212 is very efficient and gives out exactly what you put in. Different to my DB112s (expected) but easily the best of the Neos that I have owned/tried.

Depping tonight for a 4 piece local rock band... who also have a dep drummer tonight and some of the songs I'd never heard of before yesterday when I accepted the [s]gig[/s] challenge! So 24 hrs notice, 2 of the band have never even met the others before, I didn't know some of the songs before today, there are at least 2 x4 song medleys that segue together... Oh and I'm using my new Bergantine AE212 cab. Genuinely looking forward to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeoMAuFS3pU

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1363437104' post='2012672'] Where along the string did it break? [/quote] +1 My concern would be that though they might be great strings it's a no brainer if the strings are gonna break; even just rarely!

[quote name='SteveO' timestamp='1363360224' post='2011820'] Amp power greater than cab power is risky. [/quote] In my experience only if the person using the amp is a tool. I've driven cabs rated at a couple of hundred watts (as little as 120w) with amps that can deliver 1000 watts+ (presently driving a 300w cab with an amp capable of 1600w RMS)... with absolutely no problem. If you are silly enough to connect a high power amp to a low powered cab, dial the gains on full and whack the strings then the result will be unpleasant but then refer back to my first point; you would be a tool to do that!

Less than £650 - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/194086-fsft-feeler-warwick-corvette-5-rare-colour-traded/page__p__1903254__hl__warwick%20corvette%20$$ 5__fromsearch__1#entry1903254 £570 - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/189900-for-sale-warwick-streamer/page__hl__warwick+corvette+%26%23036%3B%26%23036%3B+5__fromsearch__1 £650 - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/169227-price-drop-fs-warwick-corvette-5-nirvana-black-finish-l650/page__p__1829271__hl__warwick%20corvette%20$$ 5__fromsearch__1#entry1829271 That was the first 3 $$ 5 strings that I could find on a quick search.

Your bass was made in Germany in 2007. As to value... your lowest price is pretty much what you will get. PLEASE don't make the mistake of contacting Warwick (no disrespect Warwick) and asking for a value; it is worth what someone will pay and a good way is to search on Basschat for past prices.

AE2x12 in-coming but not NV unfortunately.

[quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1363206859' post='2009907'] They have a vintage EB2 and a 1963 Strat as well..so is it a hacked account? [/quote] Yeh, the style of the listing content is generally the same on these hacked accounts, the give away is "so we will only use bank wire" for payment! That and the fact the item is at an unbelievably cheap price.

How many times can you spot this Jazz for sale? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-1966-FENDER-JAZZ-BASS-J-BASS-ELECTRIC-GUITAR-/251244592352?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3a7f583ce0 Oh and you will need to be quick to play this game as my original link was pulled by the time I copied it and went back to have a look!

Just bought another bunch of cables from Martin; top fella and true to his word.

How can you be underpaid... you can be offered a fee for a gig which you either accept or decline; if you accept then it is impossible to be underpaid if that amount is handed over! You are underpaid if you are given an amount less than you agreed.

My lazy Suday listening/viewing has been 'Daryl's House' for some time. You can find some of the more obscure (for want of a better word) guests to be great; some of the clips with Patrick Stump (being an oldie I had to look up who he was and I was genuinely pleasantly surprised by his voice) are great... Oh and his faces are great!

[quote name='dave.c' timestamp='1362314046' post='1998189'] Did you replace the mono jack socket with a stereo one to switch the battery on when you plug a jack in? [/quote] Sounds like this ^

A warm 'Warwick' welcome.

The pub pays us direct (cash) and we forward £30 of the £250 to the agent. It'd be guess work as to why the agent/venue have ceased to want to deal with each other but it could be that the venue have considered paying venues 10% less and thus they are making a direct saving.

[quote name='Roger2611' timestamp='1362236504' post='1997379'] Difficult one! what kind of clout does the agent have? Can he get you gigs that you simply would not be able to get on your own? [/quote] Ultimately he is a part-time agent (not paying taxes on this income etc.) who gets us a couple of gigs a few times a year. We can easily get by without his gigs, they are just easy diary filler dates in pubs that are no better or worse than the ones that we get ourselves.
