EDIT, bollocks my quote thingy's gone AWOL. Anyway Jon (bassassin)........ Two reasons that postage quotes have gone up massively on FEEBay. 1. Attempt to get collection only and minimize/negate fees. 2. Since September, FEEBay charge you 10% of the postage, then PAINPal have their 3.4% of the postage if you choose that method of payment. Hence, the more astute sellers have increased their postage costs to cover the new charges they incur. SO, FEEBay gets even more expensive!! Then daft buggers do a FEEBay search, see how much a similar bass to theirs is and put it out at that price. I could go on for ever................

Saturday, Brofest 3 at Northumbria Uni. On at 4.00pm just as The Toon were kicking off the second half, a mile away. It could have been more packed at that time. Spookily it filled up big style about 6pm long after we had finished. So, bass duties for Troyen a short lived early 80's NWOBHM band We have sold a couple of hundred on the recently released 9 track CD, but we really could not have expected the response. Simply amazing and humbling. Photos/auto's with people from North and South America, Europe and Israel. I played like a clown but it really didn't matter. Fabulous gig for us.

You know that one that feels like an extension of your arm when you are gigging? Keep that one.

Hope you get sorted Alain. Sorry can't help at the moment, away at Brofest then on to Scotland on Mon for 3 days. Good luck.

Run for fans of NWOBHM, event over 3 days. Northumbria Uni in God's country. Troyen are on, Saturday 4pm. Would be nice to say hello if any of you lot are daft enough to be going. The three original Troyen members are ecstatic and humbled.

VERY nice!

I'm similar to Gary except I use a Puma 500 head coz it's so simple. Only cab I would change for is Barefaced Gen 3 Super Twin thing, coz it's one less trip to the van!

Thanks guys, can always rely on you lot

Looks fantastic. Having lifted a Dan Armstrong back in the day, plexi cab is not for me. For bands in the public eye, great niche market though, would look fabulous on telly. Is it necessary for 4 differing amp wattages though? Perhaps a 200 and 500 would cover most folk and have a slight impact on the company buying costs. Good luck, though, they do look great.

Gone

I find this gives me options and takes up minimal space. Sounds pretty good as well (to me) EDIT. Ooops, posting at same time as Gary and Lozz [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0705_zpsb266c01d.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/DSCF0705_zpsb266c01d.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
