  1. [quote name='JimBobTTD' post='939170' date='Aug 29 2010, 08:40 AM']The remote location should have nothing to do with it. Let's not stoop down to the xenophobic level of thinking that everyone on the other side of the world is trying to cheat Westerners.[/quote] I agree, however - the seller has made no previous posts. Would you prefer moderators to show zero interest in potential scammers ? I have currently no reason to suggest kuetsum is dishonest, however his profile has simply enough factors for me to query him (remote location, first post, website pictures). If I am satisfied he is in possession of the basses (and that alone) then I will gladly say so.

    Hi and welcome. I always thought anyone who loved Guitar Hero should do it properly ! Personally i'd go for the Squier started pack - the Epiphone is fairly limited in it's tones.
  3. Checking validity of sale with seller due to remote location .

    The idea is it regulates how much you can dig into the string and makes you play 'lighter'. That's my interpretion anyway...
  7. I don't think I could do it. I love the fact i've got a few hanging around with different looks, feel and characteristics. Nobody [i]needs[/i] lots, but it's a luxury I couldn't forgo !
  8. It all depends on what you want from the bass. All of the ones you listed will have a good slap tone, which of these to go for is your prerogative.
  9. Hi TheGreek, just to let you know you don't need to format your post to the center . Looks like a nice bass - has a Jaydee vibe to it. Certainly not seen any more on this forum but a few on talkbass, could you be one of the only UK owners ? .
  10. Not far from Scott Arms for me .
  11. Damn it, just looked at the Shuker website at some of the new models... need some anti-GAS medication.
  12. Personally i've played a lot of custom/high end basses and been impressed with them, but not so much that i'd buy one. My Bacchus is of a very high quality and bordering on boutique (but not custom) and 2nd hand would cost about £800 which is crazy (£1500 or so new). There have been very few boutique basses however I've actually been wooed by enough to want one. Perhaps a couple of Vigiers and Roscoe - but not for those price tags ! That said, if I had money to burn i'd be down all the UKs different custom shops getting an order in.
  13. Selling on behalf of a friend, these are £180 new so selling for £90 inc postage . As per [url="http://www.canford.co.uk/Products/20-287_CANFORD-BATTERY-HEADPHONE-AMPLIFIER-Mk2-Stereo-635mm-and-35mm-jacks-out-2x-XLRF-in"]http://www.canford.co.uk/Products/20-287_C...-out-2x-XLRF-in[/url] Image here ! Any questions let me know.
  14. In the last 4 years or so i've done nothing but trades (bar the 2nd hand ABM head for £160), so i've spent absolutely nothing but string money pretty much. If I were to buy now though... Bacchus Venus = £1500 MIM Jazz + pickups = £500 Yamaha RBX = £400 Ashdown ABM300 = £250 Ashdown MAG210 = £180 = £2830 If I factor in all the old stuff I bought that wasn't traded for the above... Squier Bronco = £110 Stagg MB300 = £130 Stagg BC305 = £120 Vintage V940FL = £200 Spector Q6 Pro = £350 = £910
  15. Sheesh, I go away for a few hours and all this happens...

    ROASTED

    Sense of humour denied.
  17. tino - I asked for personal attacks not to be posted, please respect that.
  18. Did they do any Tribute 1500s ? I thought it was the twin pickup versions only. EDIT: See here for model list - [url="http://www.glguitars.com/Tribute/instruments/index.asp"]http://www.glguitars.com/Tribute/instruments/index.asp[/url]. That tells me a L1500 has to be a USA version. It will say Tribute on the headstock if it is one by the way
  19. Locking as original poster has left the forum.
  20. I missed it last year, but intend to this time ! Didn't get to see any performances in 2008 as I was stuck on the Bass Direct stand whilst ped swanned off for a couple of hours, leaving just me with a dozen custom basses and high end amps, what a pain that was.
  21. Haha, it looks like it's having a nap after reading through all those mags .
  22. You cannot be serious, one in each colour ?! That's just greedy .
  23. Here's my Bacchus and Fender.. the Yamaha is naked and in bits so was too embarrassed to join in..
  24. [quote name='iamapirate' post='932342' date='Aug 21 2010, 11:31 PM']Never mind THAT, i'm more worried about...[/quote] It will be showing vids based on your recent youtube search history .
  25. I think I just wee'd a little bit.
