  1. Lazy Sunday afternoon bump, still here and still beautiful!
  2. Singers....hmmmm Our original singer used to lay on the floor and sing at some rehearsals, got quite pissed at our first gig and forgot some of the lyrics. He used to bugger straight off after rehearsals/gigs - sometimes without even saying ta ta AND sang flat some of the time - result SACKED! Had a girl after that, nice voice but not powerful enough, result - let her down GENTLY Had a guy with a really good rock voice after that, did one rehearsal with him, he then sent a txt said he had clinical depression - why respond to the add then? Result - sent him a nice txt sayin "get well soon and you can sing with us anytime" Next guy we did about 4 rehearsals with, decent voice but he's been singing thrash metal in his last band and was prone to screaming at times. Took ages to learn anything, said he'd buy a mic and didn't, ducked out of several rehearsals, result - SACKED! Last guy - decent rock voice, did one 1 hour rehearsal with him, next day we get an e mail "I'm willing to be in the band but I don't wanna rehearse where you do, we MUST NOT use rehearsals to learn songs just polish them, if you are going to do backing vox you MUST learn the songs and I don't like your set and I'll send you some replacements"?????? WTF Result - ROYALLY SACKED!!!! Present situation is that I'm playing bass and singing as a stop gap. I don't enjoy it as much as ONLY playing bass but needs must - I just don't have the voice/range for it to work in a gig situ. It's a real shame as our set is polished and we make a good sound. The three of us are also like brudda's. ....so yes...I do share your frustration with effin singers!!!!!! Rant over
  3. Pm's answered thanks guys - still available!
  4. I had the CE22 until a short while ago, superb Axes
  5. Hey Karl, Thanks very much for your very gracious offer, those Schroeder's are class! I've got too much cab(bage) atm and my MB rig is up on here for sale! I'd love the £ but there's not much of that about with the impending festivities etc! Cheers anyway my man
  6. [quote name='Hutton' timestamp='1355231652' post='1895634'] I know that this is a rare bass but you must comply with the rules for this forum which state that you must name a price for the instrument. This is not an auction site like ebay. Good luck with the sale and welcome to the forum. [/quote] This
  7. [quote name='bengovier182' timestamp='1355148166' post='1894591'] Oh god this is a steal, what a beautiful bass and general good christmas spirit! Have a bump on me.

  9. [quote name='Ghost Rider' timestamp='1355095063' post='1894076'] Nice looking Jazz that Gary... The 79 Precision you sold me is still SUPERB! Have a Bump on me [/quote] Hey Anth, Thanks dude and glad you are still loving the 'P' which has to be one of the very best 79's around, really chuffed it went to a good home! This Jazz is a top mex example and a real 'player', will be sorry to see it go, but I'm just not a Jazz man! Gary
  10. Thanks Karl...I've had a few trade offers, but nothing tempting at the mo but one or two peeps are thinking about it. LC
  11. Cheers for the positive comments peeps. The black cabs are slightly bigger, slightly heavier than the newer yellow cone ones but they are incredibly well made and the twin port really does open up the sound.
  12. Will Santa have this in his sack??
  13. Free xmas gift type bump!
  14. Outspanding!
  15. Final price drop to £450, this won't get any cheaper lads.
  16. Here we have my MarkBass Rig consisting of: R500 Amp head - lightweight and punchy, hybrid with tube pre-amp, ground lift, pre/post Eq switches, effects loop and DI out. A sound engineer told me this Amp produced the cleanest signal he'd ever seen. Made in Italy - this was Clarky's I believe. The Amp comes in a bespoke MarkBass rucksack with pockets for leads. Std 151H Cab - Italian made and mint with it's fitted Silvertone cover with side pockets for misc leads/other stuff. Speakon connector and two 1/4" jack inputs.[b][color=#ff0000] [/color][/b] Std 210H Cab - As above but without the cover. (The Silvertone to fit this is about £38 quid). Speakon and two 1/4" jack inputs. Velcro MarkBass Bass Keeper. Sticks to the side of your cab so you can stand your Bass up while you go for a pint! Everything in lovely condition, I've only gigged it twice. Looking for [s]£950[/s] £800 the lot. It can't go any lower!!!!

  17. The best standard colour/scratch plate combo IMO. Did this come from Bass Direct Rich? If so, it used to be mine and I wouldn't mind having it back. Might trade for my beautiful burgundy mist. Cheers, LC
  18. Back to the top - might also consider trading for P Bass
  19. Mad mad price for a quality bass. The market is a bit 'fruity' at the mo!
  20. [quote name='Warwick_Official' timestamp='1354041218' post='1881340'] Without seeing the ad, I can't say for sure...but our latest Special Edition Corvette is the FSC-certified Open Day bass...made in commemoration of our 30th Anniversary Open House Day. Its made of 100% FSC certified woods - Ash Body, Wenge Top, Wenge neck and headstock veneer, and Ebony fingerboard with block inlays. Seen here: [url="http://warwick.de/modules/custom_shop/NewsCustomShop.php?newsID=3876&modell=Corvette&page=3&cl=EN"]http://warwick.de/mo...te&page=3&cl=EN[/url] [/quote]The very same...nice looking thing.
  21. Just for the outrageous kecks he used to wear (Song Remains the Same) - the title goes to the one and only Jimmy Page!
