  1. Gentle reminder to all: [b]OFFERS OF TRADES SHOULD BE MADE VIA [u]PM ONLY[/u][/b]. Not on the sale thread. Ta. [quote name='Fabrocker' timestamp='1468519960' post='3091547'] [b]Gibson Thunderbird USA 1998 [/b] [s][b]859 GBP[/b][/s][b], 829 incl. shipping and case for Thunderbird[/b] [u][i]Interested in trades for a Status basses. [/i][/u] [u][i](can add cash)[/i][/u] Poland/Poznan [b]Gibson Thunderbird USA 1998 [/b] Some cracks on lacquer, some dings. Normal stuff. Everything works. Everything original. Very low action. Its a beauty! incl. case for Thunderbird [/quote]
  2. [quote name='BaconCheese' timestamp='1478977298' post='3173125'] These are amazing- and not just for the price. These are great instruments, period. [/quote] This. GLWTS!
  3. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1481447596' post='3192280'] If stuff like this bothers you, don't buy sight unseen... [/quote] This.
  4. Pics would be good. The original link doesn't appear to work.
  5. This is the best passive 5 string I've ever played -- OldGit's gorgeous Shuker P.
  6. In terms of sheer quality and sonic gorgeousness, [url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/j36.jpg"]my Shuker custom 5[/url]. In terms of bang-per-buck, Sire V7 Marcus Miller.
  7. I've always been partial to 12/8. It's a bouncy happy signature. ☺
  8. Please don't do that skank. If you took a gentleman's walk into the woods with your Webley, I don't [i]*snif* [/i]think I could carry on... [i]*sob* [/i]
  9. I have three that see regular use:[list=1] [*]the built-in one on my Pod XT Live; [*]my trusty old Korg DT-7; [*]a cheapo clip-on that does ok with all strings apart from low B. [/list] The Korg is the only one I use for anything delicate such as setting intonation.
  10. Definitely go along.
  11. My mate had a silverface Fender Twin and used it in exactly the way mentioned by Mm20 above -- standalone for lovely crystal clean tones, or with a TS9 for those dirty moments. It was the perfect rig, apart from the fact that the Twin weighed as much as a truck and only had one poxy handle.
  12. I love Yamaha basses. Near unbeatable VFM in my opinion.
  13. I'm still trying to work out exactly what makes it 'rare'... apart from its condition
  14. He gives good bassface
  15. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1481059415' post='3189433'] Why the snobby downer on chorus? Chorus and octave, learn Sledgehammer and have a blast. [/quote] ? I have no downer on chorus. Quite the opposite.
  16. "Do you admit to posting a thread entitled 'omg this drumer is at teh wrong gig lol' without using the forum search first?"
  17. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1480964279' post='3188499'] Steve Vai once met me after a gig! [/quote] Yes I did meet you, and I'm a member on here too! although I generally use this alias. And JTUK.
  18. [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1480969111' post='3188588'] unless you want everything you do to sound like the theme music from Bergerac. [/quote] If all my fretless playing sounded like Mo Foster, I would be happier than a pig in sh*t.
  19. [quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1480883004' post='3187826'] looks the part...just need to get some sound out of the sucker... [/quote] Oh good god, that is p0rn0graphic.
  20. Antex irons are pretty good, my old XS25 iron was reliable and consistent. I have a Weller soldering station that I, ahem, [i]borrowed[/i] from work and it's lovely. Worth looking for a similar setup on fleabay IMO if you're planning to do a lot of work in the future. I also have an Antex Gascat gas iron which is great for portability.
  21. This isn't mine, but mine was identical. My first decent amp, a Laney ProBass 150w 4x10 combo that my wonderful amazing parents got me for my 21st birthday. It was a marvellous amp, and served me well for many years. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/jazza42uk/Mobile%20Uploads/bassanlage-laney-pro-foto-bild-116106841_zpstxwf3urs.jpg[/IMG]
  22. +1 for the Sire V7.
  23. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1480543329' post='3185360'] And what type of physical condition your in also matters. If a guy is sporting a huge arse there's going to be some limitations. [/quote] 'Arse'? Not 'ass'? We'll make a Brit of you yet
  24. Everybody's calling it a 'non-story' and 'not news'... well given that it's in the Magazine section, I don't think it's actually intended to be news, just an item of interest.
  25. Nice article about The Munch [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-38135674"]here[/url]. It raises a very good question... how long does it take to stop being the hired hand/new boy/etc. and actually become part of the band?
