  1. I once said I'd never sell this, but unfortunately, Mr HMRC comes first! :)

    Beautiful example and great sounding Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray 4 string made in 1995 (ish).

    I bought his privately nine years ago and it's been a beaut to own and play. The Rosewood fingerboard is a lighter shade than most I've seen. It has a few playing marks on the board, but nothing that affects it's playability.

    2 piece alder body and some lovely birdseye on the neck. I loaded this with a Bartolini pup a few years back and it just screams!!! I still have the original, but having moved house since the change over, I'm having trouble finding where it is. Successful buyers can leave me their address and as soon as I can find it, I'll post it forward.

    The action is set quite high (how I prefer it) but easy to adjust.

    Minimal nicks in this with only one real mark to list, a 10mm indent in the finish which I've tried to photograph. It's on the rear so doean't affect the aesthetics.

    [b]Comes with a Thomman 'Union Jack' HSC which has been signed by Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler of The Jam.[/b]

    Collection only but would be willing to courier at buyers expense.

    PM me if wanting to view.

    £650.00.... no offers.


















    [i][b]Back up for sale......[/b][/i]

  2. Nothing you can do legally unfortunately...
    The film producer owns the rights to the content of the film. It is his interpretation of your performance. The band (including you) become the 'subject matter'. You and the band were performing a show to the general public and the performance becomes their's so to speak. Even top-end acts cannot do a thing about it unless they own the recording rights to the film being broadcast.

    However, 'morally', maybe a polite word with the author could work, as suggested previously.

  3. Given the short notice and lack of practise time you have, I'd say be honest with them. Ask them to run through the songs and just jump in when you have the basics. As someone alse said, concentrate on keeping tight with the kick, and enjoy it.
    Treat it as trying to masturbate to porn with the laptop held between your knees. As long as you concentrate, keep good balance and don't go mental, you'll reach a satisfying conclusion. No need for tissues and moisturising cream though....... :rolleyes:

    Good luck. :)

  4. [quote name='Delberthot' post='761354' date='Mar 1 2010, 11:26 PM']I don't have a fretless to get that honky sound so I use my Boss OC-2 & BF-3 and the sound was massive through my Terror Bass and Trace 4x12"[/quote]
    AFAICR it wasn't recorded or played live on a fretless.
    Ovation Magnum, push the mids and a touch of chorus. Think honkey stingray tone with some 'colour'.

  5. Due to space, I'm going down the digtal tabletop route so all this this needs to go.

  6. With regard to monitors, can I throw another brand into the mix?
    Get yourself a pair of Mackie HR824's mk.II
    Great quality and second hand they go on the bay for around £500.
    More information can be found [url="http://www.mackie.com/products/hrmk2series/"]here[/url].

  7. My first gigging rig was a Westone Thunder 1-A (just bought the 'actual' bass back recently!!) into a Carlsbro Stingray 150 watt head and a no-name 4 x 12" cabinet.

    After years of G.A.S. and loads of changes, I've settled on this setup:

    Fender American Vintage '62 reissue Precision
    Sanberg California PM4 Custom 'Dear Old Blighty'
    EBMM Stingray 4 in Vintage Sunburst, loaded with a Bartolini (huge sound!!)

    Marbass TA503 head
    Alesis 3060 Compressor
    Korg DT1000 tuner
    Markbass 106HR cab.







  8. [quote name='fatback' post='750829' date='Feb 19 2010, 02:05 PM']Paddy's Day should be inclusive and altogether a laugh. I mean, hey, he got rid of the snakes didn't he? :rolleyes:[/quote]
    Pretty sure I read somewhere that he was an English slave. :)

  9. Due to impending emigration I am leaving my band.

    My last gig is next Friday 26th February at The Flintknappers in Brandon, Suffolk which should be great fun!!

    Here's a little advert I created for it......


    If you're not gigging, local or just passing and want a fun night (with a huge party afterwards!!!) then by all means turn up and we'll have a beer or twelve!!!

  10. [quote name='chardbass' post='728494' date='Jan 29 2010, 11:46 AM']When you mentioned him and his look I thought I knew who you were talking about- checked out Illegal Eagles' site.
    I used to see him play with a great blues rock band called Bad Reputation in the late 90's
    Always thought what a great player he was- very, very solid and quite Pino-esque too.
    Very worthy of a mention in this topic.[/quote]

    Bad Influence even? :)

  11. Haven't even used this since I bought it about a year ago. Just been sitting on a shelf until last week when I fired it up.
    I used to gig the XT live version a while ago which sounded huge. This unit can do everything the XT Live was capable of and has much more flexibility connection wise. I tried to use it in my current set-up but I much prefer the Markbass sound.

    Comes with a Line 6 box (the guitar version) but no manual or disc, although I'm sure you can get these from the Line 6 website.

    I've also got a Line 6 Guitar Pod Pro (non XT version) which I might be persuaded to part with for offers around £160 posted


    Stock pictures of both below but items are pristine condition with just a little rack rash.



  12. [quote name='Pete Academy' post='746386' date='Feb 15 2010, 07:50 PM']This is the best opportunity to sell something. Advertise it here, NOW![/quote]
    Nah..... mind you, I could be like one of those Egyptian shop owners and harrass anyone passing by.
    "Where you from? ENGLAND?? LUBBLY JUBBLY!!! Come in..... I make you special price."

  13. [quote name='The Burpster' post='746333' date='Feb 15 2010, 07:19 PM']I already do - My partner says I look a twat, but then I used to enjoy tucking my jumper into my jeans......

    :)[/quote]
    Pictures.... or it doesn't happen.













    On second thoughts............... :rolleyes:

  14. [quote name='AttitudeCastle' post='746312' date='Feb 15 2010, 07:12 PM']See Admin/Moderators and Super Heros are almost the same thing[/quote]
    You've done it now, haven't you? They'll all be wearing their undercrackers over their jeans now!!!! :)

  15. [quote name='sweeneyjimbob' post='746307' date='Feb 15 2010, 07:10 PM']any one else feel like a mug for believing it. i know i did.[/quote]
    Thing is Sweeney, it was very believable. But ultimately, a bit like nicking a poppy tin. :)

  16. Best 'whodunnit' this year!!!
    Congrats to the admins and mods for their sterling work!
    Now go sort out Jack The Ripper, the JFK hullubaloo, and find the little chav who put a hole in my fence at the weekend please. :)
