benebass Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi - been browsing to see what bass parts are knocking around for sale & I was wondering if it might help to find stuff if parts were in a separate section of the marketplace rather than alongside guitars/keyboards etc. in the 'Other musically related stuff' section. Just wondered what everyone else thought? B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 If it were not a hassle to do I think it would be a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Bass Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 That could be a pretty cool idea i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 hmm, not so sure. Definitely not a whole new forum, but perhaps a subforum to the bass classifieds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) Definitely, absolutely - [u][b]yes[/b][/u]. It's not like it hasn't been suggested before, though. I suggest making this thread into a poll - simple yes or no. Jon. Edited October 17, 2009 by Bassassin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subforum though is certainly a good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently we have bass guitars, bass amplification & bass effects as individual forums, followed by anything & everything else musically related - which currently encompasses everything from BadAss IIs to Mongolian nose-flutes, via your kids' old Bob The Builder CDs! Well, theoretically. Given that the vast majority of us seem to be modders, tinkerers, tweakers, bodgers & builders, I don't think a bass components forum is at all unrealistic. J.

J.[/quote] But this is a bass forum, so i feel that there are already enough sections in the classifieds as it is. The reason why other musical instruments is all clumped together into one forum is because alot of people wouldnt think of positing their flute for sale on a bass forum, as chances are it wouldn't exactly be the eye catching sale, well for the right reasons anyways. There are currently 3 dedicated bass related forums as they are the most popular sales threads, and i think it was a great idea to give the effects a dedicated forum, but i think its overkill to have a seperate forum for pickups and necks, not enough are sold on here. I agree that bass parts shouldnt be mixed with the other stuff though, and so i feel that should be a subsection of the bass classifieds, and other [b]non-bass[/b] stuff should be in the other forum. I think subforums are much neater. Edited October 17, 2009 by Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I don't mind one way or t'other tbh. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
