Clarky Posted September 21, 2010 Author Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) Hey Jigster, surely you recall the Frech version of the 1970s classic by Kenny: "Venez tout le monde, fait le bump ..." Edited September 21, 2010 by Clarky

Clarky Posted September 21, 2010 Author Posted September 21, 2010 That phase of my life is over, jon, I'm back in London And Jigster, Kenny were a sh*te teeny band post Bay City Rollers and had a hit with "The bump" - chorus "there's a new dance that is going around called the bump, its the bump ..." etc Yep, it hasn't survived the test of time too well.
Clarky Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) Looking over the FS boards, its evident there isn't much money floating around. I appreciate £1500-odd is a lot of dosh so I would potentially consider another part-cash trade as long as the cash was in the majority. Not really trying to add to my bass collection but I would consider a vgc s/h 2008/9/10 (non-S1) American Std Jazz (only in oly white or sunburst) as part-ex. Very specific I know but I don't like many colours, only want a USA Fender (snob), and I have a lovely P bass already. Edited September 22, 2010 by Clarky

Clarky Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 Today's bump is brought to you from Stockholm where I am told Tom Jones is gigging tonight. He obviously did not know I was available for bass duties ....

So if anyone happens to know any cool bass shops in Copenhagen ...
Clarky Posted September 23, 2010 Author Posted September 23, 2010 Last price cut to £1500 + post. If it doesn't sell at this price I am keeping it

It's a relatively new store in Copenhagen, but they have one in Århus (2nd largest city in DK) which is quite nice :-) They should also have some vintage stuff.
Clarky Posted September 23, 2010 Author Posted September 23, 2010 Thanks for the tip, BoomBass! Will try and check out that shop
Clarky Posted September 24, 2010 Author Posted September 24, 2010 Danish bump - like Danish bacon only less tasty! PS, BoomBass I stumbled across a big music shop in the centre of Copenhagen (Aage? Near the Round Tower). Lovely selection of Fenders (includinga Pino Precision), Sanbergs etc. Of course I only bought some strings!

Clarky Posted September 24, 2010 Author Posted September 24, 2010 The Pino was gorgeous but unfortunately displayed in a glass case so I couldn't get to play it. It was also about £2500 when translated from Kroner, so the strings won out

Didn't have time (so I thought) to peruse more shops due to flight back to London. Found out when I got to airport thta flight delayed by hour and a half. I am sat in airport lounge mightily peeved, knowing my evening is now b*ggered. So cheer me up someone and buy my bass. Its an order!
Jigster Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 it's a nice airport tho - as far as airports go

Man, I spent an entire afternoon in there the first time I was there. Thumping and banging on those great Updates... I miss my Celinder Update... :-(
