Anyone want to borrow a five string?

[Paul S]

Watford? Bloody northerners.

Anything further north than Chelmsford makes you a northerner in my book.

My bad. But I was talking about being Northern in England, not being weird Southern fake Scots. [/quote]

Starvolt still has it? Has he just nicked off with it?

[waynepunkdude]

I doubt it, he said he had problems but I would like to see it moved on ASAP.

I retract that, I just got it today. Very exciting, laid down bass to a few new song ideas I had lying about. The low notes are really useful! But I want more now. I've had a taste, I can't go back! Anyone doing a tester 8 string?

Good news I think you will be the first one who has borrowed it and now wants a five.

I hope Starvolt is OK.

5s are indeed the future!

Am I too late to go on the list please?

Go right ahead mate, I'm in no rush to get it back.

[clauster]

Ta muchly WPD....... I'm pretty certain I won;t get on with a five, I'd just like to be certain

[dj150888]

I suppose it'd be asking too much for a fairly new poster on the forum to be trusted with it? I've been lurking for a long time, but never posted much, really interested in trying a 5er.

[Paul S]

Thought I'd bump this one up. It must be approaching time for it to be sent off to me but I am away for a bit soon - can the next on the list have it before me and I'll jump in afterwards? Not sure who that is.

[waynepunkdude]

Yeah no probs, I'll update the list when I get home.

[Paul S]

You are a star, sir.

[waynepunkdude]

Updated list.

With ML666

Matthewsanchez

Paul S

Clauster

I think that's all

DJ150888 I'm quite happy to let you borrow it but I think the postage could be more expensive and therefore not worth it, up to you though.

I'm quite new here too- but after all, isn't stuff like this the reason you're on a bass forum?

Mattewsanchez has backed out. I asked him if he wanted posting, and he said he didn't want it. So now to Paul S?

[Paul S]

I'm off on holiday tomorrow for a week, so would ask to be missed this time around and slot back in again for the time after. Either that or you hang onto it for another week then send it after 20th? I don't mind either way.

I'm fine with that, but then I'll have had it over a month. It isn't getting much playing though, because it's so heavy! I would rather send it on- who's next?

[waynepunkdude]

Do what you have to do guys as long as everybody is happy.

If I can have the next address it's at PM'd to me then I can send some new strings up.

[clauster]

I think I'm next after Paul (and currently last on the list), but I've got a heavy couple of weeks ahead, so I'm happy to wait until Paul has finished with it, evn if that's not going to be until mid/late June.
