  1. £10 for both pillows and the rug? But only if the mysterious black rug-smudge is included.
  2. Incidentally, the VAT is your second born. If you have no kids, or only the one kid, the payment defers to testicles.
  3. This bass gets cheaper and cheaper...
  4. So this is for the cab only? You're keeping the flight case right? And you're throwing in the lamp to sweeten the deal?
  5. You have a 1 in 205,552 chance of dying in a plane crash, so you are roughly 700 times more likely to die in a plane crash than you are of winning the Euromillions. Think about that next time you by a lottery ticket at the airport!
  6. They literally say it's rigged right here... if it said "our fixed odds competitions" then fine, but it says "our fixed odd competitions" which is essentially another way of saying "our rigged strange competitions" 100% swerve this!! Our fixed odd competitions give you the chance to win
  7. @tvickey, I have a Mesa Strategy Eight:88. is this what you're after? 562812.
  8. £2,500 for a GT7... literally insane... why do some people think that there's a fleet of total idiots out there willing to buy second hand items at 3 times the price that same item was when it was new. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323974697331
  9. Damn, I was looking for a bass with 19cm spacing! I have big hands...
  10. After a bit of hunting, I have found a picture of my first bass that was literally head to toe (fretboard and back of neck included!) Covered in stickers.
  11. Hi, I'm expecting a rather expensive delivery from a Reverb purchase and after reviewing the tracking details I can see that the status is showing as 'shortlanded'. Having Googled this term it appears it means either the parcel did not disembark the vessel at the port of arrival or that the parcel wasn't on the vessel or couldn't be found aboard the vessel to be disembarked. So not a good thing in any event... Does anyone have any experience with having had a parcel 'shortlanded'? If so, what was the resolution? I've contacted the seller and the courier, SkyNet (never heard of SkyNet apart from in reference to The Terminator!). So hopefully I'll hear something back soon, but if anyone has any advice/experience with 'Shortlanded' parcels, please let me know! Russ.
  12. Yup, the whole of the UK. At this stage worth considerably less than this pedal!
  13. This is a proper steal in my humble opinion! I used to have the bass version, yes they are a little dated, but at £175 with the pickup and delivery, this is a very good price! Roland VG-88 with GK-3 Pickup and Cable https://reverb.com/item/32888757-roland-vg-88-with-gk-3-pickup-and-cable?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=32888757-roland-vg-88-with-gk-3-pickup-and-cable
  14. Surely £59 with delivery is fair?? This is the last 'needs to be sold' item, someone buy it please!
  15. My very first bass was literally 100% covered in stickers... and when I say 100%, I mean it. The fretboard was stickered, the pickups, the back of the neck, the headstock, literally everywhere!! It made it play HORRIBLY but with me being 14 at the time it looked freakin' cool! These days, I HATE stickers on instruments... drives me crazy when I buy a bass/guitar that's been stickered mostly because the removal of said stickers is such a pain in the arsé! Though I have recently realised that hand sanitizer removes sticker glue very nicely!
  16. Aries basses are superb. I've owned 4 over the years, excellent build quality and fantastic playability!
  17. Never heard of Jimmywood... I understand it is a blend of Dalbergia nigra and Dalbergia spruceana (Amazon Rosewood) should anyone wish to know! Which would make it CITIES exempt. 👍
  18. A reference to Floor 23 of Building 7 I believe... known as 'the truthers smoking gun' of many WTC conspiracy theories. An interesting thing to read up on. Beautiful bass too!
  19. Alan builds some outstanding basses/guitars. I've owned 5 or 6 over the years and currently have 2 (soon to be 3!) that will never leave me. Honestly ACG are some of the very finest basses you will ever play, even if you payed 4 times the price for certain NY built basses! Whoever buys this will undoubtedly be a happy bunny!
  20. @Deeper and down Check out the feedback thread, if the buyer/seller has good positive feedback from others on the site, then you know you're in safe hands. Otherwise, if you're uncertain, then try and collect with cash or pay via PayPal good payments and know that the 4% is your payment for a safety net if things goes sideways. Also, check out the buyer/sellers profile, see if they are active members that contribute to threads regularly, if so, again you're probably in safe hands, if the buyer/seller is brand new to the site, maybe try and talk to them via PM, get a vibe for who they are and if they know the gear they're buying/selling. If ANYTHING smells fishy, abort! Or, at the VERY least, use PayPal goods and pay the 4% for that important safety net! Thems be my advice!
  21. Anyone with OCD will have issues with that bridge! Lovely bass though.
  22. Hi all, So having recently been in the market for a high end guitar, I strangely found myself in possession of two USA PRS beauties. I decided to move one on and see what other interesting beasts are out there and after heavily debating a Reiver Kompakt 6, and doing some googling on the subject, I came upon a Reiver Kompakt T7, I couldn't resist so I bought it and now it's currently on it's way to me from the Dolomite Mountains! Can't wait to play this monster, it looks absolutely exceptional. I've owned a number of ACG basses, and currently have 2 that I'll be keeping until I die, so knowing the quality of Alan's work, this is sure to be an amazing instrument!
