  1. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' timestamp='1425576708' post='2708783'] Get your fringe cut!! Weight-wise it's very comfortable and Is between 9-9.4lbs according to my luggage scales. [/quote] I notice a certain surreptitious editing of post#1 at 5.32pm Anyway, I've put something else up for sale somewhere else and I've crossed my fingers. GLWTS regardless.
  2. Can't see a weight Nick (somebody had to ask)?
  3. Paulie, I know you always have some amazing gear, so I'm presuming this is made in USA? Sorry to ask, but there are some Mex and Japan basses on here at [s]insane [/s]ambitious prices, so thought I'd best ask. No offense intended. Cheers, Karl.
  4. Form an orderly queue please!
  5. [quote name='Les' timestamp='1425477501' post='2707721'] I've still got my Mustang (loan) on hold for you since last August [/quote]
  6. [quote name='stingraybassman' timestamp='1425477291' post='2707713'] Too many innuendos [/quote] Dirty boy
  7. I had a newbie, before Christmas, ask me to hold my Bleached Blonde Thumb for him. He was away on hol for a week. Two days after I knew him to be back, I saw him pm Kev, and buy Kev's Dirty Blonde Thumb. Not a word to me. So I pm'd him the next day and he admitted to it. So 11 days on hold and the twat did not have the courtesy to pm me and say he'd bought something else. Since then, only the chosen few will get an "on hold".
  8. 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................
  9. That is sensational Nick. I only have one thing worth this much wonder if I could flog it in time GLWTS
  10. Thanks Porkpie, thought it would be a walnut type plug at headstock end. That is even lighter than my white one was. Oh dearie, I'm getting nervous now. Thinks.............
  11. 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.

  12. You know that one that feels like an extension of your arm when you are gigging? Keep that one.
  13. While you are at the weight Porkpie, where is truss rod adjustment please, headstock or heel?
  14. You might be better off sending him a pm. He has not been online since he placed the advert.
  15. Weight please Porkpie. What's the neck dive like on this one (when asked this, I normally put it on the strap and take a photo in a long mirror, helps with these kind of bodies)? Should never have sold my white one, ferocious beast! GLWTS
  16. Wow, one less for me to spend my money on. Well done.
  17. Great looking bass Lozz. The world has indeed gone mad when you see US basses out at a couple of hundred quid less than Mexican or Japanese. Mind at least yours will sell quickly Good luck with the sale bud.
  18. 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.
  19. [quote name='lou24d53' timestamp='1425027289' post='2702999'] Ooooh, that's really sweet, absolutely cracking price as well, unfortunately I'm completely skint just now! Karl, how about you buy this and I'll take it off your hands in 6 months time!? [/quote] Well Dougie, it's because a couple of days back, I committed myself to a LPB one of these, without the East, and more expensive. Translation. I'm stupid
  20. Jeez, that's cheaper than Mex Road Worns
  21. 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.

  23. 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!
