I'm after a JC case if someone whose preference is gig-bags wanted to pay less for bass only. Just a thought...... Anyway, bump for a lovely semi! -
Stetson and Magnum PI moustache. Never fails.

FOR SALE: Thunderbird Bass - £60! Bargain Crazy BOSS GONE MAD!
Shaggy replied to Moos3h's topic in Basses For Sale
How about £60 for the Alfa....... Bump for a bargainacious 'bird! -
Met Oli today in sunny Swansea (it was, for a change!), sold him my old Guild B301-F, real bass enthusiast, top guy, great communication - thanks for a slick deal!
-
Well, I must be a "local person" as Martin sold me a very nice 9V power block from his "local shop"! Great, funny guy, smooth deal - thanks!
-
Did an amp / guitar trade with Tim last Friday, totally smooth deal despite my missing my motorway junction (I blame sub-standard English traffic cones) and having to hastily rearrange the meet at the next one down! Great guy, great communicator, great taste in gear, obviously a total nut about all things bass. Has a dubious relationship with his cat Would deal with again anytime!

[quote name='Gust0o' post='613602' date='Oct 1 2009, 10:02 AM']This is one stunning bass. It's a shame I could never sneak it past the wife. Have a bump.[/quote] Betcha could! I use several cunning plans for "sneaking past", one being that almost all of my basses are sunburst, so when another one joins the herd she doesn't notice..... -
Generally tend to tap the drum-lines, so maybe I'm playing the wrong instument. Earwigging a good bassline tend to make take up the "funky stance / walk" Exception is vocal basslines on Doo-wop records, can never resist singing along to those! Dook / dook / dook / dook of Earl / dook / dook....... etc

Guitarist mate just bought the ltd edition (I think) "Apache" guit*r in white / gold hardware, have to say it's beautifully made; the woods, finish, and set-up absolutely top-notch.

I only remember this as a cinema (briefly lived in Roath in te '80's - Angus st.), but I can imagine it making a hell of a great live music venue - could do with a similar one in Swansea. Damn shame, will be writing stroppy letter

[quote name='walbassist' post='608308' date='Sep 25 2009, 08:18 AM']I [b]so[/b] want this back! It's such a beautiful bass and plays really well; best passive fretless I've ever used.[/quote] Thanks for the good words walbassist, and gotta say I've never acquired a bass before or since this so well set up.

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='606663' date='Sep 23 2009, 02:18 PM'][s]Get a blackstar, maybe the HT boost, but whip the valve out and stick something better in it. Stock one pretty much sucks.[/s] Get the DHA VT1 purist, sounds totally ideal for what you want, its funny colours and you don't need funny eq and stuff. It's also true bypass.[/quote] Hmmmm ................(searches for spare DiMarzio model 1's at bottom of drawer to trade..........) Edit: PM'd -
Ta for the info. Just got me a non-master volume Vox AC30, looking for something to either overdrive it at low levels (like a power sponge), or a decent tube overdrive pedal - I think the Blackstar or similar is the way to go
-
How does the DHA VT1-Purist compare to the Blackstar HT? Interested!
-
Had my eye on this for a while as a potential bargain - didn't last long!

Confess - which 'theoretically' simple songs do you mess up?

[quote name='spike' post='603341' date='Sep 20 2009, 08:51 AM']I still do this one time out of three. I normally mess up because I get distracted by a good looking dancer in the audience.[/quote] Happened to me Friday night - came in on the E instead of the A on the yawn-inducingly simple "Chasing cars". Doh! -
[quote name='Les' post='601203' date='Sep 17 2009, 12:16 PM']Glad thats settled. It's the bloody drummer, isn't it ?[/quote] Our drummer nails it spot on every time, guitarist invariably cocks up the intro, singer generally forgets when the chorus changes back to verse, so it almost always goes in the second set when everyone's too p*ssed to notice It's OK, not my favourite, but definately a crowd-pleaser

No prob, second dibs!

These definitely gone?

Common theme to all us hopeless cases? - You're looking at it
