[quote name='Delberthot' post='339731' date='Nov 28 2008, 03:38 PM']One question thats not been asked yet - would it cost more money to operate the site if we were to expand the for sale section? Also, more time to moderate as well?[/quote] No real issue for the site to expand, there's plenty of capacity. More time to moderate ? Yes, I know I only get brief chances throughout the day to have a look from work, i'd expect some mods have no access at all.

I doubt he'll want to come back to be honest, I know I wouldn't.

Just as a note thread views are only updated hourly and thus increase server performance !

My personal take on it is to keep things bass/band related. So PA, mixers, bass books etc all fine. I draw the line at MP3 players and laptops used for recording. Of course my own stance isn't neccessarily the policy.. let's leave it for others to answer .

Played one of these in PMT Birmingham on Monday... wow that was fun ! Would be great to have one, I couldn't play it properly but it was fantastic.

Nottingham... yeah not too far. Know of a suitable venue ?

Yikes ! I'm perplexed where he got £550 BIN from.

There seem to be some really optimistic people around !

I swapped out a Groove Tubes valve put in my amp by it's previous owner for a standard Sovtek 12AX7 and preferred it... It's fun and cheap to experiment so go for it .

Saw one in Birmingham PMT yesterday - looked very nice for the price.

The Skylines are already pretty damned good so any improvement will be interesting to see. Any idea if this will affect the price ?

Same here, they do me fine. Might upgrade to an ABM cab though.

I think I like it, but only with a solid colour and pickguard. Don't think i've seen that shape on a bass before - good work from EBMM.

That's not a bad price. Go for it .

Looks like he was serious .

As a non-Shuker owner here's my opinion. Shuker are hand made boutique instruments that are generally made to your own requirements. He does have several off the shelf designs if you just want a well made version of a classic design however. Being able to wait a very long time is also a pre-requisite if you want one made for you .

£1600 ? I doubt they will sell any considering the competition.

I watched about 5 mins of Hadrian Feraud as well, really didn't get on with it so I left and went back to the stand.. EDIT: Didn't realise it was you on the W&T 4000, glad you enjoyed it .

It was a pretty hectic but enjoyable day ! Really loved chatting to people and hearing some great equipment. Here's a few of pics from the afternoon.. Bass Direct stand Basses ! Wood & Tronics Spectrum into a Genz Benz 3.0 10T Combo + Bergantino AE112. Lots of people ! Ped trying his Vigier through the MarkBass F1. BigRedX, Urb and Ped discussing the finer points of the Bergantino IP112.

Well ped is on his way here and then we'll be on our way ! Looking forward to meeting people so come say hello .
