[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1406048593' post='2507863'] You definitely need at least 1 form of photo id to open a bank account. My dad recently changed his and had to take his passport as well as a utility bill to prove his address. [/quote] This isn't true for all banks. I have banked with Loyds for many years, this year I wanted some separate accounts away from them. I now have a Santander and first direct account. All done online and no photo needed. Both up and running within 24 hours.

I have been using one of these as my main amp for a few years. It's never let me down. One of the best sounding GK amps. More than enough power for almost every situation. Fantastic tonal variations and unique channel switching. Anyone looking for a new amp should seriously consider this. (I don't know the seller, by the way)

Crafter Junior, electro / acoustic. I bought one for my son a few years ago. Lovely action. Had a similar feel to a Les Paul. Having said that I have just googled images and can't find one to show you.

I operate the sound system at my church. Some speakers will only use the clip type mics. Others are happy to use headsets. I never get a level or feedback problem with the headsets. However with the clip mics all sorts of problems occur. Feedback, loss of level when they turn their head. Extraneous noise when they move (depending on clothing and position) Yes, good wireless is expensive, but if you are going to do it. Do it well.

Bass newbies what basic equipment is a must have?
gelfin replied to Gomez68's topic in General Discussion
You will succumb to it. By next year you will have a P bass, some exotic fretless, an active bass. And looking to have a custom built bass. An all valve head and at least two 4 X 10 cabs as well as various combo's and an essential wireless system. -

That has really ruined my vision of Betty.

If you like the T bird then check out the Tokai versions. To me they feel more solid and with a heavier body don't suffer with neck dive.

I have tried car spray a couple of times. It never seems to completely harden for me.

Looks a bit tame compared to this one. [URL=http://s970.photobucket.com/user/gelfin5959/media/HMtriple_zps713ae4c4.jpg.html][IMG]http://i970.photobucket.com/albums/ae181/gelfin5959/HMtriple_zps713ae4c4.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Went to see Fairport in Cardiff. During the break Dave Pegg was stood next to me at the bar and we had a pleasant chat. When the barmaid asked for my payment for my round he just leaned over to her and said "don't worry I'll get that" He paid her and smiled and off he went. It was a great gig as well. Not exactly meeting a hero but he is now.

Selling a bass for more than you thought reasonable
gelfin replied to Grangur's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
I bought a Westone Spectrum with a spare fretless neck off ebay. Flight case included. only wanted the matching necks for a project. Paid £84.00 for it. When it arrived I took the fretted neck off, put the body on my office floor, took a couple of pics and listed it on ebay, 99p no reserve. 7 days later auction ends, the body sold for £135.00 You win some. -
If he has signed for it in good condition he may have a problem. However if he takes up with ebay they will generally favour the buyer. Sorry but from experience, mine and many others, you are likely to lose out on this. Did he pay by paypal. If not the he can't get an automatic refund.

And I've pronounced it "Da-thario" for as long as I remember. I have learned something today.

[quote name='rogerstodge' timestamp='1414245627' post='2587454'] Nice clobber !! [/quote] [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1414248990' post='2587488'] What were you thinking? [/quote] That was 39 years ago. That was when Yes were doing the cloak thing, so we tried it. It's one of those things that seemed cool at the time. Hindsight and all that. Still makes me laugh though.

I was once persuaded to look like this for a wedding gig (brides request) This horror has been posted on BC before. [url="http://s970.photobucket.com/user/gelfin5959/media/Bigbass.jpg.html"][/url] This is my more usual look used for next gig when asked not to do the spandex.
