Jesus Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Hey... I'm just preparing myself for many many years spent learning and perfecting the art of Bass. I've been a frequent visitor to TalkBass fro a few months now and i've just seen this place exists so here i am. Im 26, from Essex, and my perfect girl is any redhead (i know i have issues). Anyway, ive just got the funds to get myself my first Bass to accompany my very very old 100w Alligator Bass combo. I've got my eye onb a couple of ebay auctions over the weekend but if i fail with my over mbitious bids i will be placing an order with Kurt as RondoMusic USA fro one of his SX models (either a P-bass, J-bass, or Jaguar just to narrow it down). Ive got the TalkBass guys to blame for wanting an SX but it'll still be delivered to my door for around £140 depending on model so its a pretty good deal in my eyes. Sorry for the essay, hope to get more involved on here in the near future. Dean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 Ive just won the bass i was after on ebay. An Aria Pro II Rhino, ive done some searches on here, and there is only mention of one of them, in red like this one. It wouldnt surprise me if they are the same bass because after much attempted research ive only found 3 mentions of them. This one (which may be the same one as owned by a member of this forum previously), A white one currently on Ebay, and one for sale in Le Francais. Hopefully when it comes next week it will be a very good condition as described and ready for me to make my fingers sore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 Hey man... They're difficult to find over here i've found. Theres a shop in Ireland that does them or has done them, and a few other but stock is thin on the ground from what i've seen anyway. Im considering getting a basic P-Bass from Rondo anyway if i enjoy my first couple of weeks playing like i think i will. Its nice to have shiny things and at their prices i cant think of a good excuse not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noisedude Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Full marks for both the obtaining of an obscure Aria bass and the insertion of a Big Lebowski reference into this thread. Welcome, Jesus from Essex. I don't know much about Essex except Denise Van Outen. Is she a friend of yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 noisedude, I havn't seen her recently but to be fair, i havnt texted or called so she probably thinks i've lost interest. We're about more than just her tho, i think you'll find all our women are equally as common, fun (read that as you wish), and attractive. Plus we stake claim to Britains oldest recorded town. Bremen, i really hope it doesnt cause any offence to the guys and gals on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common, fun and attractive? Apart from the fun and attractive bits it sounds a lot like Leeds lasses!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colchester town Albums, T-Shirts, Badges, and Picnic Baskets are available from all good music stores, and some bad ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
