Also, I didn't know you were in BWB [/quote] hey i dont wanna say exactly where from but it was keighley... well as far as BWB go im not in the band my self but they're all my good friends, the singer and drummer ive known and been in my another band with for many years, we all practice in the same place, and as you can see collectively we've lost a lot thanks to everyone on basschat for the support on this

[quote name='nick' post='110975' date='Dec 30 2007, 02:33 PM']Sorry to hear about your loss. You can only wish the very worst for these arseholes.. Might be a longshot, but along with checking Crack Convertors etc, you could set up some favourite searches on Ebay. You would receive notifications of particular items for sale... All the best for 2008[/quote] cheers mate thats an awesome idea!! i'll get on it right away!!

[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='102175' date='Dec 10 2007, 03:02 PM']Minus The Bear are a good band, my old Basis M 2000 died too mid gig![/quote] yeah they are awesome!! really good bunch of lads!! im going to see them tomorrow in leeds!! i dont blame cory for blowing the amp!! it was just very unfortunate timing!! we live and learn!!

[quote name='MB1' post='101100' date='Dec 7 2007, 08:04 PM']MB1. "Its usually expected that the bass amp will be provided by one band and shared with others? While Dr Marten says....... "A swift kick in the balls often offends!"....when i leave the stage so does my gear,im not running a hire firm,and i dont purchase amplification/basses with others in mind. A little Extreme perhaps but it saves on repair bills,if you havent got your own gear you shouldnt be on the stage.[/quote] Bloody too right mate!!! ive only ever had bad experiences with gear sharing!! about a month after i got my mesa m2000 bass head (bought on credit) we were playing in leeds with a pretty big american band called minus the bear!! the bass player was really sound and very polite, he asked me if he could borrow my gear, there was really no other option, no other bass players had bothered to bring anything!! (so annoying ive not just put my self in loads of debt to make everyone else sound good!!) any way we played our support slot and then minus the bear took to the stage.........3 songs in there was blue smoke flooding from the stage!!!! yep my amp had blown!!! BIG TIME!! i was not a happy man!! i was a nightmare!! mesa eventually sorted me out (i phoned them direct) sound control were being slow and useless!!! but from that moment on i dont care who you are!! famous or not!! your not using my gear!!!! to me its just plain lazy to expect someone else to provide everything for you!!!! get a job buy some gear then get up on stage!! rant over

i bloody knew it!! was checkin out "vintage" fenders on the bay today!! this one stood out a mile!! fake fake fake!! its a shame there are people out there getting ripped off by these scammers!! argh!!!!!
