  1. It’s a long list, but yes, you two are at the top 😎
  2. I think the idea of this is, has the bass in the first post passed through your hands at any time. If not, suggest someone who may have owned it (or has form for it 😂).
  3. I would properly get my ear bent by our singer if I turned up at an 80’s gig without The Purple One. She’s loves it.
  4. Not I sir. @Chiliwailer?
  5. I will definitely be ordering another one this year. After the truss rod went on my Flea ‘61 Jazz bass, I replaced it with a Status neck. Sometime later 🙄, Fender did actually supply me with a replacement Flea neck, so I’ve had this knocking about for a while. I’ve had a couple of ideas around what to do with it, but the more Limelight’s I see the more ideas keep popping into my head 😀.
  6. Yes, it wasn’t until I bought my second bass (decades ago) that I realised that it was the saddles on my first bass that were the issue regarding string breakages and not me. But as I said, strings breaks are not my real worry.
  7. I must admit, I’ve not had a string break on me for years and if that was all that could go wrong, I might agree. I have had a wire disconnect from an input jack and a nut snap though. Not so easy to fix when you’re halfway through a set at a festival. If you’re happy to take the risk, good luck to you sir.
  8. Not wishing to kick off the old 'you should take a spare bass to every gig' argument again, but if you're in a gigging band, you should have something to fall back on if the unexpected occurs. I really cannot get my head around why, if you have the means, you wouldn't do that (if you're in a gigging band).
  9. Arty farty and no doubt expensive to produce Darkglass promo video....
  10. An amplifier that needs little introduction. Lightweight, powerful and reliable. Designed by those clever Finnish chaps over in Helsinki, this amp head also includes the celebrated Darkglass pedal effects of 'Vintage Microtubes' and the 'B3K'. In excellent condition and comes complete in it's original box with candy. Also, present is the intelligent foot switch which allows muting and changing between effects. All the geeky numbers and blurb can be found here. Price includes insured shipping to a UK address.
  11. How old is this bass please?
  12. That is not exclusive to the UK. I've had some complete nonsense addresses from most recently from Italy, but France and elsewhere as well. You could argue that it only needs to be name/number/street/post code. City will self designate with an accurate post code.
  13. Ha ha. You beat me too it, although I was going to say ‘another one for you’.
  14. I don’t think I would part with £8.50 for that. Horribly put together.
  15. OK. I’ll play..... This.... ....is better than....
  16. It doesn’t help that the header of the thread is the opposite of what you would like it’s content to be. ’The songs pants’ is a statement which is probably even stronger than ‘songs I hate’. ’The songs pants’ according to who exactly? Not wishing to start an argument, but if you start off with a statement like that, it’s gonna go downhill rapidly.
  17. I appreciate your frustration, but it doesn't actually help that much if you don't share the details.
  18. Classy 👍
  19. It might be that the shipping options are limiting the sale Mart?
  20. Yes, I would. That doesn’t look right. I’ve not shipped outside the UK yet though.
  21. ChangesTwoBowie made a lock down video as a thank you to all NHS and First Responders. Please share to let them know we care.

      Third morning in a row (yesterday).  Great response and, again, thanks to the band!

      I've started telling the carers to look for the band by name so they can thank you all themselves.

      PS:  It sounds and looks great on the surround system and big screen.

      Thanks to everyone who has viewed and liked it. It’s very much appreciated :hi:

  22. Beautiful bass these. Ebony fingerboard with no markers 👍
  23. From what I understand, Noel was banned from any involvement in that part of the procedings 😂
