fretmeister Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Tom bought my Aguilar GS112 Lovely bloke - came to collect from essex in this weather. Very smooth transaction. good to meet you Tom! Quote
essexbasscat Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 That's a lovely family family you have there Paul. Please give your wife and daughters a big thank - you from me for making me feel welcome. Paul - thanks to you, I've now heard an LM 11 for the first time and now have some idea what people are talking about on this forum. That model ampeg was also a first for me too, so all in all, it's been an interesting day and time well spent. By the way, nice basses too !! Made it back with half hour to spare before the darkness really came down, so timed it well for leaving. Perhaps it's just as well we didn't meet in the pub - I suspect we'd still be there now !! And my feedback for Paul; any man that greets you with custard creams has my vote - cheers Paul, well met. Top man. Some very interesting bass lines too. All the best Tom Quote
pantherairsoft Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Tom made the trip up to take my MarkBass SA450 off me. Great bloke, knows his bass and a real please to talk to. While we tested the amp out I realised I prob shouldn't sell it as its bloody great! Dammit :-) Make sure you take care of her bud! Cheers Shep Quote
essexbasscat Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Why, thank you Shep. That SA450 is going nowhere without me. Period. Definately one of my better buys. Thanks for everything today, including the intro. to an area of sound I'd like to explore more, now I've been shown how it's done. No worries dealing with Shep folks. Sound. Cheers Tom Quote
supabock Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Although i gave Tom my acoustic bass, i have to say that the unexpected two bottles of wine that he gave me were a great gesture even when he had driven so far to pick the bass up. Good bloke with lots of time for people........... Nice one Tom Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 Lovely to meet you today, Tom - Enjoy your lovely new bass! Tom came up from Essex and drove over 200 miles to pick up an instrument from me. Top man and BassChatter! - Highly recommended Quote
essexbasscat Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 Why thank you Rich You have some nice basses there, including that Status collection. Meeting you has opened my eyes a bit to these basses and what they're about, something that was well overdue. They sound huge through that little giant and the Genz Benz neo cab. I finally got my hands on that AV62 Precision as well (and then had to let it go again, damn). I'm pretty sure the new owner will not be dissapointed. It's a real shame that's not going to be me !! Thanks for everything Rich, including the straightforward directions. Nice one. Hopefully we'll meet again at some point. In the meantime good luck with the shows mate T Quote
JackLondon Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 A something smaller than the previous posts but Tom has bought a bridge off me today, a top bloke and good coffee companion Quote
Musicman20 Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Tom purchased one of my instrument cables last week. Fantastic basschatter; buy or sell to Tom with full confidence Quote
essexbasscat Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Cheers Gareth and ta for the nice cable. I'll have to play on dark stages now, as your one will show up my other cables ! Any time you have some nice stuff to sell at good prices, I'll be only too happy to hear about it (along with the other 10,000 BC'ers after some nice kit). Thanks Gareth cheers T Quote
artisan Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 met Tom yesterday when he drove from the other end of the country to pick up my (now his) RW Precision bass. lovely bloke,damn fine player & a great conversationalist too. even my dog (Jake) enjoyed meeting him. take care Tom & enjoy that lovely bass. Quote
essexbasscat Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Thanks Neil, that Precision has a good home here. It's never easy to find that 'right' Precision, but this is the one alright. As Borat would say, s'nice !! Thanks for the cup(s) of tea mate, I really needed that after that journey in the heat yesterday. I felt dry- roasted by the time I got back. Jake's a lovely puppy !! warmest welcome anywhere, bless 'im. If you're down this way any time, drop in and we'll go for a beer cheers Tom Quote

Samba_83 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Tom Purchased a Line 6 pod off me - Sent payment quickly & Great fella to boot. Top Banana ! Quote
thisnameistaken Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Tom sold me a trombone last week, trade worked out a bit tricky due to heavy demands on his time but he still found a gap in his schedule to get it in the post and kept me up to date with PMs while he was trying to sort out it. Very much appreciated, top guy. Quote
essexbasscat Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 cheers Kev and thanks for your patience while the world went crazy busy at this end. Let me know how you get on with it Quote
Pow_22 Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Tom bought a slightly used set of DR Fatbeams off me recently. Very smooth transaction and absolutely no issues. Pleasure to deal with Quote
essexbasscat Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Cheers Paul, those Fat Beams nicely sorted out the fret buzz on my CV Jazz. Good price too, much appreciated. All the best Tom Quote

thumbo Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 Sold a strap to Tom. Fast payment, easy and friendly transaction. Many thanks Quote
Len_derby Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 Met Tom for the first time today at Northampton services on the M1. I bought his beautiful Yamaha Bex semi-acoustic bass off him. Tom's a lovely fella and drove all the way from his plantation in the deep Thames Delta to meet up with me. He was totally honest and genuine in pointing out the (minimal) dings on the bass before I bought. A top guy, and a pleasure to do business with him. I hope your journey towards being a 'guitar god' continues well Tom. Neil Quote
