    [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1451253890' post='2939157'] What a lovely thing to add to a thread that is clearly a minor homage to her talent. I loved it. [/quote] To be fair, the poster might have been referring to himself, given the use of the hyphen. I'm sure there's no-one shallow enough on here to allow their prejudice views of addicts to influence their musical tastes. I enjoy her singing, and her take on covers. These Beatles covers being no exception. Thanks for sharing it. :-)

    Another satisfied bassdirect customer. Emailed BD Sunday afternoon to check stock of some strings (which were £14 cheaper than anywhere else in the uk!). Not expecting a reply until Monday sometime. Mark got back to me that afternoon, strings arrived this morning. I've bought a 5 string Warwick and a genz combo over the past few years. And it's the same excellent service no matter what you spend. John

    TRADED
  6. oldslapper
    Tentative bump. Very well made guitar, enjoying playing it, but think I'm too traditional. P or J types, maybe squier vi.in trade. Or cash offer.

    Cheers fellas! Jim, what's your view of the bass vi as a bass in itself?
  8. oldslapper
    TRADED Hohner 6 string bass. Excellent condition. Neck through, active/passive. Very low action. These basses are very well made and worth more than current market value imho. Got major gas for a more traditional bass, or a bass vi.

Will throw in new leather strap. Case not included. Only after trades at this stage for 4 string Precision or Jazz bass of a Fender style. Or a squier vi. I'm in Bath, but would be prepared to meet up at a reasonable distance for the right deal.

    Bowie....dividing opion, illiciting strong(ish) feelings both ways....and most importantly, people are talking about him. Back to his best.

    Level 42, Hammersmith Odeon, sometime in the 1980's is the only gig I've ever walked out of. Terrific musicians, but dull songs, dull performance, all sounded the same to me. I lasted 4 tunes in. ....there, I've said it.

    Where roughly in Devon are you?

    [quote name='phil.c60' timestamp='1447695973' post='2909594'] Yes, especially if it's the ad for Leftybassman's Wal! [/quote] :-)

    [quote name='phil.c60' timestamp='1447663434' post='2909236'] Hope this is in the right place - sorry if it isn't. On at least two occasions, including right now, things have been posted for sale and appear on the right on the market place page, but when I click on them I get a message saying "[#10340] you don't have permission to view this topic" I'd just like to know what it means! [/quote] It could be a message from your other half

    I had a thunder llla during the mid eighties. My memory of it is that I toured twice with it over a Stingray. It was a great bass, well made, flexible pre amp. However, like my hair at the time, it didn't balance too well.

    Whole combo for sale With footswitch and heavy duty castors.

    [quote name='tonewheels' timestamp='1447442228' post='2907761'] Split prices [/quote] Pmd ref head

    [quote name='chaypup' timestamp='1446217537' post='2897849'] I used to have the full version of this with the amp - sounds great! [/quote] Thanks, I've owned 2 of these. The combo as a whole is for sale as I'm not sure the cab alone is attracting much interest. Comes with foot switch which changes channel, graphic, effects & mute. Also has heavy duty castors. Will trade for an amp head.
  19. oldslapper
    Could just be a reference to what the audience will want to do to Mr H?
  20. oldslapper
    Make an offer bump. Might sell whole combo, comes with footswitch
  21. oldslapper
    2x8 Delta Combo. Sold elsewhere
  22. oldslapper
    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.
  23. oldslapper
    Oh my. Great bass, great (daft) price. These and Japanese Blades are worth twice what they seem to sell for.

    [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. :-)
  25. oldslapper
    Is the 15 8ohm?
