I had an early British built Ashdown bass rig, I was glad to see the back of it tbh.

All my gigging basses have been built in california, have been since 2002.

I'm not doubting it doesn't happen, I'm saying you're a douche bag if you're one of those that does it.

What if it is 'as described'?

As my feedback on this site (and eBay for that matter) shows I'm still an old fashioned gentleman, if I say I'll buy it or sell it then that's what I do.

That's not how eBay works, if you don't want it don't click on it, not hard really.

We've got a shooting ground a mile away, I find the noise really soothing, nothing better than sitting in the garden reading a magazine with a coffee and listening to the irregular pops and bangs. I've even heard people say clay pigeon shooting is cruel.....

I bet there's a lot of pros using Squire stuff, not necessarily famous players from famous bands as such but pros or there playing, cruise ships, corporate functions, recording sessions, theatres etc etc etc

I like how people always use Fender as an example of how Gibson and Rickenbacker should do business yet Fender have been in massive debt for years, most if not all of my life AFAIK!

Decent basses then?!

Can I still pay with turnips?

There's quite a few of us here insured with them so you better let us know if there's anything wrong with it, I just pay for it and print it off! Lol

I remember when it was all fields.....

Used to be Ampband for about £59 but after a tip off from this very site we are now with Insure4music which is even cheaper! I think we paid £45?

Pli would only be a scam if they didn't pay out when they should. Like in many trades I think these things help to some extent, the dinosaurs with ratty old kit that won't have PAT testing done or take out public liability or think buying the stickers off eBay will do the job generally don't get the better gigs and certainly not the better paying ones! Long may it continue. I do the PAT testing and a years insurance costs each band member about ten quid.

Due to a drink driver I've got a sister with one leg and a paralysed arm mate, I know what she got and I know what the medical experts and legal people got!

You forgot the £9.9 million divided up between the legal eagles!

Could it be worth messaging Thomann, they might have a stagg one knocking about?

Pow!

I wonder where JTUK went?

I really need to get back into practicing!

I'm not young, cool or good looking so I'm safe.

I talking about the one in the first clip neilp put up above, he's got a French bow but he's holding it further up the stick.

I've never seen that method of French hold before, it's certainly doing the job!

I did one in ears gig with my amp and cab, didn't need it and hasn't been used since.
