[quote name='Rayman' post='898022' date='Jul 18 2010, 01:21 PM']I like his add, I think it's aimed at the kind of folk who might buy that particular bass. Good fun, and different from the norm.[/quote] Seems your right,3 bidders up to now...Rambo,B A Barrachus and Private Pike from Dads army.

BUMP-Cmon guys must be someone willing to rise to the challenge,as i said i`ll pay the going rate (never mind the feeling of self acheivement and stuff gloating in the fact you have made a 45 yr old gimp very happy )

[quote name='TheButler' post='896958' date='Jul 16 2010, 11:00 PM']Hey folks, Well, it has been quite some time since i've posted here last. A lot has happened - from getting my dream rig, to touring the UK with the band. Unfortunately the latter is what put all the nails in the coffin. It was such a positively awful experience i wouldn't have wished upon anyone. Further to that, i've decided to concentrate on studying and i just can't juggle the two. Not to mention i've recently gone through an upheaval of moving house since. It has been a busy few months, of which i didn't keep up with very well. In fact, i've let a lot of people down and really disappointed myself in doing so. I just thought i'd post because i'm in a bit of a situation regarding my gear. Do i sell it all, keep some of it or keep it all? It took me ages to get a Mesa 400+ and my rig sounded really incredible. I'm in need of money though, to kick start saving/investment. What is the best way to approach my situation? I'm only 20, experienced being number 58 in the German album charts, have made lots of good contacts and met lots of great people, not to mention i am quite sure i still have plenty of fuel in the tank. Help me good people. Cheers Jamie.[/quote]Getting rid of yer possessions(esp something you love doing)isnt a good idea,i done similar yrs ago with my bike(kwack zzr11 which my wife had bought me) cos id been made redundant and felt guilty cos we had the 6 boys and the car was shagged out....in her words it turned me into "a mumpy b*****d"and never solved anything domestic-wise long term......keep yer gear other solutions will arise.

Cheers for the replies guys all good advice and yea thats why i persevere.....it is fun ,i love the Ibanez(cheers again Bassassin)...wife reckons im weird cos i keep lookin at it even when im not playing....its my new baby

[quote name='TDM' post='892113' date='Jul 11 2010, 05:53 PM']The 775 stuff might be useful to me, do you know what models the mobos are?[/quote] kind of,one a Asus P5GD1-FM other two are similar spec but havnt tested either of them,the asus is working and still sitting with a skt 775 2.9ghz cpu/fan.

Havnt been playing long but decided im gonna start from scratch,i can play bits of songs n stuff but think i should be better than i am,anyone any suggestions what i should be aiming to master first and set targets that would help me?

Any of you watched themovie "sex drugs n rock n roll" out awhile ago??....quiet a good watch if you were a Dury/Chas Jankel fan.

Never got me laid,possibly because i cant play it,come to think of it the wifes tart sister has stopped flashing her melons to me....coincidently since i bought the T40.

Looking for someone to teach me basic bass,been trying to pick it up myself from video tutorials with limited success ,obviously pay the going rate but be warned....it will be like teaching Stephen Hawkins how to do the can-can.

Clearing out my junk room and will be lobbing out loads of surplus parts ive salvaged from machines ive rebuilt/scrapped loads of memory ddr/ddr2.various hard drives(from 40-160gb ide),graphic cards(agp),dvd writers,cpu`s(mostly skt 775 p4),few mobos(775 and older 748 p4),psu`s etc etc.....pm if anyone can use any of it.

[quote name='cycrowave' post='881119' date='Jun 29 2010, 04:37 PM']hi. so im wondering what advice the board could give regarding trading? if you are both sending something by courier for instance, theres gonna have to be a lot of trust involved? or is there a 3rd party through which you can carry out the transation? any thoughts on this greatly appreciated, as im thinking about doing a trade. cheers[/quote] Yea im in the same frame of thought(thinking of trading)Ive been stung hard when selling a laptop one so wary,very least i would insist on before postage is communication through a home phone number,ideally if i trade id rather deal with someone in a distance that an amacable meet up could be arranged,not always possible though and can restrict the level of interest.

Hi all, Discovered your forums whilst googling for a switch id somehow broken on my T40,first class job guys,descent helpful members and well laid out and informative Anyway now ive kissed ass,im Dougie,a 45 yr old from Scotland who has always wanted to learn bass(usually when p****d listening to rock at volumes that make my neighbours want to sell up and my rottweiller attack me(serious!),finally got a Peavey T40 in respectable condition from a mate which ive learned is apparently a descent guitar,only thing i had to repair was change the input jack and apart from the odd mark here and there looks and sounds nice,due to the fact i cant play it lol it sits as an ornament but im trying......(eventually i intend to replace it with a nice modern bass which is lighter,never really appreciated anything old be it car,bike or women) Look forward to posting and joining in with you guys,again congrats on a superb forum.
