  1. Nina Gromniak is his guitarist. Terrific player, great attitude and delight to work with. Not surprised your a little bit in love, she's adorable.
  2. Oh my. Great bass, great (daft) price. These and Japanese Blades are worth twice what they seem to sell for.
  3. [quote name='simwells' timestamp='1442747498' post='2869143'] Sorry just seen this, in my head it is, but I'm not sure how to test or find out for definite? [/quote] Might be on back of speaker, but that would mean taking the back of the cabinet off. If you've been using it with another cab I'll assume it's 8 ohm. :-)
  4. Scott bought some earphones from me, paid pronto, easy transaction. Thanks, John
  5. Tom bought a ukulele from me. Paid quickly and was very patient waiting for delivery. Top man! John
  6. [quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1435999160' post='2814224'] I saw wishbone ash at Hammersmith Odeon 30+ years ago and the image that sticks with me still is Martin Turner gobbling on the blue stage carpet throughout the gig. [/quote] Gobbing, not gobbling...........that was a different show...
  7. Superb basses, and worth twice that much. Build quality is excellent, ebony boards are so even across each fret and flexible preamp. Glws

  9. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1435503566' post='2809429'] My missus has the non GTX version (no guitar input, just vocals), and its a truly impressive piece of kit! [/quote] Thanks Chris, sure is impressive.
  10. SOLD Lanikai Acoutic electric Tenor Ukullele, with gig bag and Fender strap SOLD. Some making on body and head, but only gigged a few times a couple of years ago, but otherwise kept in its bag under bed. £50 collected. http://www.eaglemusicshop.com/tenor-ukuleles/Lanikai-ULU2-TE-Tenor-Ukulele.htm?utm_source=googlemerchant&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=googlemerchant&gclid=CJCsrtiossYCFarJtAodTKoFdw [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/IMAG0104.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/IMAG0107.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/IMAG0105.jpg[/IMG] SOLD Sure E2C InEar phones. Used weekly for about a year at a regular acoustic gig, not abused. Stored for past 2 years. I've thrown away the inserts I used as I assumed no one would want dirty ones. I've included the foam and rubber unused ones. These are amazing for in ear monitoring, or just for listening to music via your portable devise. I can't use in ear monitors anymore otherwise I'd keep them. Not sure (sic) on price, but £50 seems reasonable, but open to reasonable offers. Could trade for a Ditto Looper?

Fired up with new 9v battery (included) and it worked. Haven't used this for probably 4 years. £20 [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/IMAG0115.jpg[/IMG] P&P add £5 for each of the above. I'm in Bath if you want to collect or meet up. Thanks, John
  11. Bought a bass from Sean. Easy pleasant transaction. Highly recommended. John

  17. That's a shame you had that experience. I use my RGT membership for a number of different benefits for myself and students, including new materials, new teaching ideas and aides and handy and relevant articles. An RGT tutor doesn't have to soley offer exam pathways, I certainly don't. It's not a tutors job to impose exams, or particular books, on a student if it's not what will motivate them to learn, or dare I say it, enjoy learning.
  18. SOLD Lanikai soprano ukulele. Good condition used only at home. No case or bag. Specs: Size Soprano Scale Length (13.625 ins) Width at Nut 35mm Top Nato Back/Sides Nato Fretboard Rosewood Machine Heads Geared £15, could post for another £5 as I've got loads bubble wrap and boxes.
  19. [quote name='leftybassman392' timestamp='1426936635' post='2723630'] Is it? I'd certainly agree that the RGT wouldn't want somebody like that as a member and would look to remove him from their list if this could be established beyond reasonable doubt, but my recollection of RGT membership is that it has procedures in place to prevent someone like this gaining membership in the first place - which would render such rules unnecessary. Once a tutor is a member, getting rid of them is quite difficult IIRC. (To be fair, I resigned my membership when I retired from teaching about 5 years ago so my information isn't up to date.) It's a very picky little technical point that doesn't affect the main topic at all, but all the same... [/quote] Just had a look at the area where you have to state what level of competency and grading you believe you would be able to teach to. And blow me you're right. It just says "over reporting could lead to a loss of reputation" But only if people report poor tutors I guess. Kind of undermines the purpose of belonging to an association such as RGT if people aren't honest about their level of competency and there are no means of checking and challenging false statements. I have enjoyed many benefits of belonging to RGT, it would be a shame if it's reputation is undermined by a few.
