Marinus is an absolute gem to deal with. I am very fussy when selling away from the UK, due to a couple of problems in the past. Marinus agreed to my conditions and paid up almost before we had agreed the deal All I had to do was box up the bass FABULOUS FELLA TO DEAL WITH very much recommended. Many thanks for everything Marinus and all the best fella. EDIT, forgot to mention, his English is better than mine

[quote name='Raslee' timestamp='1408401867' post='2529924'] Just got in from a strange Monday night wedding gig...bizarre on a school night. Anyhow second time this weekend my 70's Limelight P has been out and I absolutely love it, changed the pick up though to a wizard trad, the original was ok but I just think the wizard trad has the edge a bit. Anyhow... I love my Limelight and should do a NBD although I've had it for around a month or so ...can't believe I'm enjoying a Precision as well...ahem [/quote] We demand a thread. Getting close to possibly somebody starting a Limelight Porn thread?

Then and now. I am now 56. This year I will do about 45 paid gigs with the weekend warrior cover band I'm in . Next year I will do about 40 with them, plus at least 5 festivals with an originals band from the early 80's that has reformed. Not all of them in the UK. I will also be releasing at least two new tracks, for 2 record label compilations, with the originals band. It may well top out at a full CD/album, whatever they are these days . We old geezers must have some kind of appeal, even if it's just freak, or people would be sat at home with cans and the telly. I will go on for as long as I can even though I have a fretting arm issue. The biggest drawback for me is the day after a gig it really is an effort to get off the sofa One thing that REALLY helps a coffin dodger like me is a 700 watt amp, with suitable cab, and the WHOLE LOT weighing 46lbs Keep on rockin me baby!

I understand Bravewood have an excellent reputation. The comments I have seen, regarding Bravewood, on Basschat, would seem to back that up.

Thanks chaps, very kind. Thunderbird, you must get in touch with your inner "Summer of Love" Sorry, the one photographed above is not mine. All pm's are about to be replied to in chronological order, as been in studio all day, apologies. Mine will only come in a battered gig bag I'm afraid, unlike the one above. The more eagle eyed amongst you may see what the shop had it out at a couple of months ago. Right, crap photographer alert, brace tha sens! EDIT. TOM, did I mention 8lb 3 oz [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0589_zpsd75aa95f.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0590_zps9350644c.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0591_zps7ac9ef42.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0592_zpsf77cb7da.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0593_zpsf35961c2.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0594_zps56495bc2.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0596_zps23279a4a.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0597_zps4b132203.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0598_zps28c0c36a.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0599_zpsa3462aaf.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0600_zps1ab44112.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0601_zps1fc9aa45.jpg.html"][/url]

Sorry this has happened Sean, to me if a customer has a problem, it always needs sorting so they are happy. It may be a "loss leader" at the time, but sometimes it can come back and reward businesses very well in the long term. I have heard so many times of our American friends being tremendous with customer service, and indeed, that has been my experience with anything I have bought from the States. Sadly, in further cliche mode, exception proves the rule. Thank you for giving us food for thought. [quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1407708486' post='2523305'] I agree in every respect, including liking surf green which is an indication of [i]very[/i] good taste afaic.

I got the same mail but it had my full name (not the easiest on the planet ). I went into it a different way, by googling PAINPal then accessing my account. Don't use it anyway so I really don't know why I looked, but it confirmed nothing on it. If "they" have scammed me, they will get sod all.

Think Sean may have been making a passing reference to the following, which I prized out of his bleeding fingers [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0575_zps91b798d2.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/DSCF0575_zps91b798d2.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
