Yip...it was a mixed crowd but he was playing mainly for the younger ones.....that said he played some stuff from TTF which was out in 1993!! But folk started leaving when he went on after us. There was still enough to finish the night with although we had to drop a few songs to take it up to finishing time at the pub!

Cheers mate! We really enjoyed it and in fact splashed out on a glass of water between sets Well.....we are Scottish!!

Played with our 9 piece 60's band SHOUT! Last night in a pub called The Spateston Inn in Johnston just outside Glasgow. Busy night with punters and a Christmas night out from a local supermarket! The guitarist thought it was very funny seeing them in their ''civies'' and was tempted to go up and ask where the bacon was....We just about fitted in and lucky for us our keyboard lad was given the night of to see Madness (The band not the illness!!) So....8 band members stuck in a corner whilst the resident DJ had much more room and plenty of tables! He played for about and hour,we did an hour then were off for another hour! Far too long a break and we had to endure ear shattering techno (down with the kids man!) music! Good night had by all,nice buffet I recommend the egg sarnies! SHOUT! Higher and Higher..mp4

From a few weeks ago in Paisley, Scotland. Rocking a Musicman Stingray and a suitable suit! -
Trip to Edinburgh with the 9 piece band SHOUT! Played at STRAMASH. Great venue packed with mainly young lads and lassies! It's a student area so no surprise. Stage was ok. There is 9 of us as mentioned so it can get a bit tight at times. I managed to clout one of the singers in the back of the head....but no damage to the bass which was a Godin Classic Shifter. Nice to have some free beer and water as well! Back there in January and looking forward to it! SHOUT! Rescue Me.mp4

Indeed it is....getting tired! -
He mentioned on Wednesday that the bass was due to be delivered on Thursday but had said he didn't hold out much hope.He also said that he still wanted the bass,so I guess he was offered his money back. The tracking said nothing on Thursday and when I checked today (Friday ) one week after it should have arrived the tfacking had been update showing it delivered!
-
There is a happy end to this story....The guitar arrived at the buyers home yesterday after being missing for 8 days! No idea what happened. The tracking stopped last Friday when it was marked as not arrived. The buyer raised a case with E bay and there was some tracking updates but I think they DHL,were looking in to it! Fair play to them them found it in Livingston a week after it was lifted from me! Oh and I must say sorry to the two guys in the white van that uplifted it from me! (They did look shady)

Genz Benz 1 x 15 cab. Downsizing and this is now surplus. No issues and never let me down. Check specs online,it's loud and punchy with a great range of sounds.The speaker is from the very well regarded American company Genz Benz. It's from the Focus range comes with cover I recently sold the 4 x 10 version of this and have used them in many live situations over the last 5 years..Can be tried and tested in Banknock,near Falkirk. Amp now sold.....£100 cab........SOLD -
The upshot was that e bay sorted it out pronto and both myself and the buyer got our dosh...

Great condition for year,these guitars are well regarded and were the line before the Classic Vibe range. Cheeky Fender logo added by previous owner,maple body which looks stunning! It's a two piece I believe and doesn't have the usual odd matched stripes. Very low action,straight neck with no real wear on the frets. Pearloid block inlays with binding on the neck. I have fitted a Fender hi mass bridge and Fender neckplate. Looks a lot nicer in the flesh and feels ,sounds and plays like a higher end Fender bass. Some marks on the body where the bridge cover was fitted...I will chuck that in...small mark on back of neck,on the laquer,but not a bash. I get a lot of attention when using this guitar and will miss it but need funds for an upgrade to my amp and cab. I think that's all...any questions just ask. Now I have just had an issue with DHL so I would prefer a local uplift but can pack securely for a courier uplift if you want to sort something out. Please use Parcelforce 24 or the likes I will not use EVRI or DHL. NOW SOLD

Yes...but imagine the disappointment when you buy a bass and it never arrived.Correct..with the old system I would have been stuffed.
