Shaggy Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Did an amp / guitar trade with Tim last Friday, totally smooth deal despite my missing my motorway junction (I blame sub-standard English traffic cones) and having to hastily rearrange the meet at the next one down! Great guy, great communicator, great taste in gear, obviously a total nut about all things bass. Has a dubious relationship with his cat Would deal with again anytime!

chriswilliams666 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Just aquired a Squier Vintage Modified P-Bass off Tim, and a perfect transaction it was. Quick, easy, mutually beneficial = no problemo. Nice guy too! Although he insists on them terrible Pickup and Bridge Covers! Thanks again, and Enjoy the OLP!

Zombywoof Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I sold Tim my Ampeg Cab t'other week and it was a pleasure dealing with the guy. He drove all the way up to Bristol with cash in his wallet and bought the cab on trust as I didn't have a head for him to try it out with. Totally nice bloke and no fussing about.

jamesf Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Tim bought my Antoria Jazz a few weeks ago and couldn't be a more pleasant guy to deal with if he tried; my highest recommendations for anyone wanting to trade, he's got damn good taste for sure!

tarcher Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Tim replied to my Wanted Epiphone Les Paul Bass thread within hours of me posting. The upshot being that we done a deal and I'm a very happy bunny. Was able to pick the bass up on our way back from Wales today(he's only 10mins off the M4) had a nice cup of coffee and a natter. A lovely geezer our Tim. A great example of what makes Bass Chat such a good place. Cheers Tim All the best mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Bought an OPL bass from Tim, which is in great nick with fresh strings. Tim went the extra mile, arranging for his drummer to deliver personally to my door. What a star! You don't get this quality of service very often. Thanks, Tim.

Alfie Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Feedback for advice rather than a sale. Tim pointed me towards where I could get a replacement pickguard for my '51RI, it was a very good recommendation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voxpop Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Tim bought a cable from me and I can highly recommend this gent. He is easy to deal with and a great guy. I can recommend him to everyone who wants to sell or buy bass gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom1946 Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Another 'highly recommended' from me too. Just bought a P bass bridge cover and he sent it while I was buggering about on Paypal making a mess of his email address All sorted in the end though. Thanks Tim, you're a star. Tom.

Old Horse Murphy Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Just received a Fender Thumbrest from Tim after posting a Wanted Ad. It's now nicely installed on my P Bass Superb service and a thoroughly nice guy. Thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameltoe Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Just bought a '51 RI Pickup from Tim for a steal after he had picked up a bargain Seymour Duncan. Nice to see people pass on good fortune instead of trying to rip everyone else off for a change. I know too many people like that unfortunately. The best thing being, I hadn't even advertised that I wanted this pickup, and he hadn't advertised it for sale. He popped up in a thread about pickup recommendations and like some kind of bass chat superhero offered me the '51 reissue which had already been recommended to me, for a bargain price. What a legend. It even arrived in a lovely Seymour Duncan box with the pickup nicely tucked away in a cloth bag! Miles better than the usual stuffed-in-a-jiffy-bag ebay transaction. Can't recommended this guy enough. Oh, and if all that wasn't good enough, I paid for the item on Thursday afternoon- it arrived Friday morning. Top bloke!!

tredders Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I was on the lookout for a thumb rest for my CIJ Precision, and Tim offered to send me one, in return for a small donation to Bass Chat. Really nice thing to do, and the thumb rest arrived quickly. Thanks Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hand of john curley Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Posted on the wanted forum for a Boss TU2 - literally within the hour got a response and said tuner arrived 24 hours after payment and is immaculate condition - cannot recommend Tim enough - Quality bloke.

CathalOC Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I bought a beautiful US Fender Precision from this gentleman yesterday. He was totally professional, friendly and helpful. A pleasure to meet you and a pleasure to do business with you! Love the guitar and I was pretty impressed with Gram and Pete too!

ikay Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Sold my Aphex Punch Factory to Tim in response to his wanted ad. Friendly, quick and straightforward transaction, a pleasure to do business with. Many thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patch006 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Tim is great guy to deal with, guitar packed really well and he got it to me earlier than he first said he could. Thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monckyman Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Went down to Tims on Thursday from Manchester to buy his Ampeg 115 and arrived quite late (11pm). Tim had kept me fully up to date with his movements etc so I could co-ordinate meet up times. When I needed to arrange the whole thing Tim was very easy going and totally amenable. It all went wonderfully with Tim taking the time to show me around the Ampeg, tell me about its history and so on. He also threw in to the deal a Roqsolid cover and a set of Precision pickup covers! To paraphrase red dwarf, "Wottaguy!" A great man to deal with, very kind in his dealings, and has two gorgeous happy cats which says it all ! Thanks very much Tim.

Pow_22 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Bought some wizard pickups off Tim. Arived well packaged and lightening quick - just in time for my rebuild day.

KennysFord Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I bought Precision of Tim this week. Totally blown away with the effort he put into getting the Bass to me in double quick time. Nice Bass, Nice Guy and a credit to this forum. Thanks Tim, Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
