[quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1383143040' post='2260708'] I know what you mean, I'm in Cornwall at the moment did 60 miles had 4000 feet of climbing. What I was going to ask was if you're down the weekend of the 10th come and do the Hellfire Sportive with us. [/quote] Ha ha, wish I had the time, hope you're doing the Epic Wayne? Thanks for the invite anyway, perhaps next year when with any luck we'll be back down in Kent? C

I loved my SVP but needed to match it with an Ampeg power amp to really get he sound I wanted. Problem was that the SVP plus SVT300 was 5u, weighed a ton, and was about 250 more watts than I needed. Now have an V4-B and am very happy C

They'll be on eBay in a few days! You'd have needed a pretty big vehicle to drive that lot away wouldn't you

[quote name='Finbar' timestamp='1383151005' post='2260856'] Found one on Gumtree and messaged the chap selling it. He replied, and I sent one back trying to barter the postage in with it, then... no reply. Left it a couple of days and messaged him again, and he said I didn't reply to him, so he sold it to someone else. Absolutely gutted! [/quote] [quote name='bassman7755' timestamp='1383119409' post='2260288'] I have one that I dont use any more, pm me if you want to do a deal. [/quote] There you go

[quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1383122608' post='2260351'] You still cycling, Chris? [/quote] Yep, you'd love it where I live Wayne, 500m climb to to the top of the Cambrians quite literally out of my back door. I ride Machynlleth/Dylife/Llanidloes and back occasionally, 1800m of climbing total in 3 hours! Ride to work is 450 metres of climbing! I never realised how flat Kent was

VT pedal and SVP are Worlds apart. I'm guessing the folks who think the VT sounds like decent Ampeg haven't played through decent Ampeg. The SVP through SVT-300 was one of the most sublime bass sounds I've made

Two guys have PM'd me saying they'll collect this but neither have replied saying when (it's first come first served as far as I'm concerned). This might be in part because the PM system doesn't seem to be letting people know they've got a new message. I'll give them a couple of days to reply and if they don't come back to me by Friday we'll arrange something subrob. Cheers Chris

Nothing here either. I'm guessing the alerts aren't working due to the increased PM traffic resulting from the 'no replies to wanted ads' thing

Bought a Coda

Buy it, refin if you can't live with it.

I think nearly all decisions by BC over the years have been very good, even many that didn't appear so at first sight. This however is possibly the exception that's going to prove the rule (or start a new trend towards poor decisions?). IMO the FS forums will never be a watertight revenue generator, certainly not with the current membership model and what I assume is a relatively low capital base. If we try to make it one, the baby could well go out with the bathwater. Hope none of the mods/owners take this personally as they all do a great job and it's not easy. The topic under discussion is a small issue but one that, if it's a sign that there might be similar decisions on the way, could put off a lot of members and send folks back to eBay for their buying and selling, despite the high levels of crapness there. Like it or not, the FS forums are the life blood of this place. Thinking out aloud, could the reply function in Items Wanted be restricted to folks who've paid the annual fee to advertise in FS already?

Thanks Geoff This is available FOC until 8th November when I'm driving back to Kent and when it will go to a mate down there. Chris

Welcome back mate, you've been missed round these parts. Chris

This is of course the alternative to insurance (although it doesn't stop them losing it I guess) [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/219821-how-to-send-a-bass-amp-by-courier/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/219821-how-to-send-a-bass-amp-by-courier/page__fromsearch__1[/url]
