[quote name='StephenFerguson' timestamp='1352903082' post='1869131'] Ok, mustang harry; the song upsets me as I see a potential grim window into a potential future for myself as Harry (49, wife left him six year previous and the kids think he is a waste of space and oxygen) trapses on to the dance floor, crotch stained with the evidence of a prostate with a similar veiw on his usefulness as his children, and removes his tie. Harry, attemting to appeal to the assembled woman, makes a rudimentary headband from said tie and attempts "life and soul of the party" dance come mating ritual, sub conciously aware of the revultion and pity in the eyes of the assembled crowd he convinces himself that he is enjoying himself. The song reaches its clap along call and responce section where Harry removes his tie and rides it like a twisted parody of a horse "ride harry, ride!" and brakes down crying on the floor, calling for his wife as the crowd slowly edge away from him. The man is removed and the band strike up "dakota" by the steriophonics its the second time they have played it tonight. *tongue is firmly in cheek, scales balanced? [/quote]

[quote name='StephenFerguson' timestamp='1352900817' post='1869056'] Sorry, I am a prick/snob/music facist, and the song just sounds like the furious dying ticks of the desperate 49 year old single womans bilogical clock as she drops her handbag at the front of the stage and dance/grinds out a silent plee that someone in the pub/function will consider her worthy of sneaking out on at 7am. Sorry. [/quote]

Chris still sings unbelievable, looke old mind...

Well then ows about that then? Soungarden on Later.. Fender P, did exactly what is says on the tin didn't it? Fancy boutique bass? I don't thimk so ta very much! "Beauty improves with use and age" Tools for the job...

£280 quid! could have got a squier VM with change for that!

You've offerd a refund? Forget any repair bill bullsh*t, you,ve done all you can for the moment, wait and see..

[quote name='Sean' timestamp='1351357085' post='1850520'] Just went out and got one. Definitely worth £2.99. Let's just hope the bottle of vino tinto I picked up for £3.99 is equally serviceable. [/quote] now you're dreaming!

You wont go wrong with the Legacy's, Remember to get some isoproyl (?) cleaner as well, they'll last much longer with a wipe down after every session

sound to light = school disco =bad! slow to fade = classy = good!

[quote name='ash' timestamp='1350821875' post='1843788'] It went for £488! I think they played a shrewd auction with this one, I hope whoever gets it isn't disappointed. I bought a mint one last year for less than that which I sold on.....for less than that. [/quote] Pls let me know when that happens again!

[list] [*]still £205, 22 hours to go! [/list]

[quote name='4StringFortress' timestamp='1350721301' post='1842590'] That's cool man how long do they normally last you? [/quote] , i change em every three months or so when we're gigging once a week and rehersing once a week plus a few hours tooling about at home. I guess they last as long as you want them to (ie some people like thier stringers a bit duller) but i reckon every 3 months is about right for me (i also wipe em down after every sesh with Isoproanol - this deffo helps!)

Some red wines really make me talk a lot of sh*t. ah.. a fellow bullsh*tter after too much vino, I salute you brother!

i use strings direct's own brand (Legacy) nickels cos a) theyre 8 quid a set not as harsh (some say zingy) as steels c) some say they're actually unbranded roto's d) they sound fine and can be replaced regularly without breaking the bank.

great but since when was using flats taking the piss? seriously keep it going, next thing you'll be getting paid for it!

its sooo tempting but Ricks fine 59 isnt sure about the body......?

barefaced and thunderfunk, simples!

thats cos it aint balck and it aint graphite!

would be quite interesting if anyone on BC actually [b]wasn't [/b]watching it

[quote name='gjones' timestamp='1350654691' post='1841849'] Oooooh I have a pair of early 80's Precision pickups that would sound real dandy in this little honey. [/quote] PERV !!!!!

well i got my JV P from Ash and an amazing bass it is too, however i have taken out the pots and replaced them with something from John (cant remember his basschat name! - Kilogon?) and also the origional P pup and put in SD quarter pounders. So I have the origional 82/3 pups and electrics sitting in the back of a drawer somewhere! So, forgetting about value, it might be worth a punt for the neck and body and poping in my gear? Really fancy a "sort of" genuine JV...

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1350585721' post='1840971'] the plonker says it's worth 900-1000... with no pups or electrics.... having tried to sell one of these.... but a first edition, with all the parts.... I think that may be a bit high a guess! [/quote] yeah be interesting to see how high it goes, 400 would be my guess, and thats overpriced IMO. Out of interest, would putting in origional pups and electrics (guess who has some! make a difference to the value?

no lectrics or pups mind....

Some plonker told the seller what this was! Could have been the bargain of the year! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300795572455#description"]http://cgi.ebay.co.u...455#description[/url]
