warwickhunt Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 If it's anything like my first AA meeting it'll probably have gone something like... "Hello, my name's John and I like Warwick basses"! Oddly enough I've come to terms with the alcohol problem, I run out of money I don't buy any more but as for Warwicks...

I've been playing almost 20 years now, currently playing bass in a blues band and g****r in a Metal band, have dabbled on drums too, though bass is what I started on and will always be my main instrument.

Stingray5 Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 [quote name='Stingray5' post='221073' date='Jun 18 2008, 03:50 AM']Hi all, I joined a short while ago and realized, during a spot of midnight surfing, that I still hadn't said hello. Suffice to say I've been playing bass now for more years than I care to remember (...and guitar even longer!). Played most styles too at one time or another. But bass has always been my primary instrument (guitar players being two-a-penny!! ) and mine have taken me just about half way round the world and a lot closer to home too, of course (home being in the London area). Ready for the other half now! I have around a dozen instruments and my basses are 4, 5, 6-string and fretless (most listed below). Currently, I'm working with two main bands plus another couple of occasional bands plus any dep/studio work that comes my way. Aside from that, it's the usual private teaching from home thing which I've also been doing for a bunch of years. Cheers for now, Steve.[/quote] Aw shucks - all sweet and innocent!

Clarky Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Mine: "Hi, new forumite here. I have a Polytone MiniBrute 1 bass combo (with 12 inch speaker; metal grill) which I bought 10 years ago from the old Bass Centre in Wapping for £450 for use with a double bass. In the end I didn't get on with the double bass and the amp has been sat in my study for about 8 years unused (and never gigged). It is essentially as new without a scratch. Anyone any idea what its worth (Bass Gallery has had a s/h one for sale for £450 for quite a time now so its obviously less than that)? Any interest in it? I am based in central London. Cheers Clarky" Funny, as having re-discovered DB this amp would probably have saved me a load of money had I just hung on to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a midish 40 something bassist and p/t vocalist in a covers band (Uncle Jack) based out of the South of England. My enthusiasm and organisational skills far out weigh any musical talent that I may have. I suscribe to the theory that all mistakes and playing limitations can be overcome by volume and "front". Anyway my bass of choice is a MM Stingray with a Ricky 4003 and Fender P Bass as backups. My amp is a 500w Trace Elliot head put through Trace 4 x 10 and 1x 15 cabs, far too big for most venues (see point above), must be compensating for something or another. Don't use a lot of online sites although I do go on activebass on a regular basis for the banter. Anyway that's me, do a boring day job to sustain my hobby which is out gigging (and get paid to boot). My strength is that I really do know my limitations!!![/quote] Bit dull, but there you are! Mind you, the BC For Sale forum has had an effect, I don't use any of the above gear any more, in fact don't own the TE stuff at all!!

Truckstop Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 [quote]Hello all, I want an ESP so i'm going to have to part with my blue Yamaha RBXJM1. It's been played for nearly 10 years so it could do with a bit of a clean but all the electrics work fine. Sounds great; legendary bright middle growl and quite unbelievable clarity really are the selling points of this guitar. Built like a house and weighs almost as much. I'm even throwing in a hardcase too. It's battered, but it's still got three catches and it has a handle. I'm looking for about £500, but try me. You might catch me in a generous mood. If anyone's interested, email me and i'll send you a load of photos of my actual guitar, but for now, here's a stock photo courtesy of google: Speak your brains! Truckstop ([email protected])[/quote] Haha, I then dropped it to £400 and then decided to keep it! Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
