    Me, because my other half (fiance actually) is the trumpet player in my band (see link below) so I get the best of both worlds! No nagging about being out gigging or anything. Bliss!

    I've got a set of (brand new, never fitted) roundwounds that I'd swap for your flats....I THINK they are Stadium Elites but the box has long since gone (they are in a plastic sealed packet though). Interested?

    [quote name='4-string-thing' post='1031943' date='Nov 21 2010, 09:36 PM']I'm quite a happy bunny, as I've just collected an ebay impulse buy, a Yamaha BB 4GA II. A 1988, quilted Maple (?) turquoise see-thru, twin humbuckers and active electronics. In very good condition, as new, apart from the gold plated hardware looking a bit worn. Just plugged in and tried it and it plays and sounds great, will go down a treat with my 80's glam-metal band! Anyone got any thoughts on these as regards what I should have paid, any pitfalls etc? Turns out the guy is a mate of basschatter Peteacademy's so I reckon it will probably turn out to be a good deal. Only drawback is, I may have to move something on to appease the other half....[/quote] Well i dont have any experience on that specific model but I do have a yamaha bass....a 4 string active rbx800...i play in a soul band and have 5 string warwicks, musicmans, a spector, a status, a gibson les paul etc etc. All expensive basses...... The yamaha sounds the best out of the lot. It really really does. I paid 140 qud for it about 8 years ago when I first started playing bass. I hardly ever use it, but took it to a gig last month as a back up and I just couldnt get my warwick to cut through,,,,I plugged in the yamaha, it having not seen the light of day for 12 months, and it just sounded perfect; it was still in tune in fact! Yamaha don't make crap! Gareth

    to the top! anyone? what you got?

    What it says on the tin really; I've got a 2007 Spector Euro5LX (in black cherry with gold hardware) like this [url="http://www.dv247.com/guitars/spector-euro5...k-cherry--80045"]http://www.dv247.com/guitars/spector-euro5...k-cherry--80045[/url] that I don't really use (bought on a whim of feeling flush) that I'm wanting to swap for a markbass rig (head and cab or larger combo) AND a decent 5 (or even 4 string) bass of decent quality that I can take to gigs as back up to my Stingray. I will post some pics of the Spector if there's any serious interest. The bass is seriously mint and has had literally either 2 or 3 gigs played on it. It just doesn't sit right in the soul band that I play in and sounds too synth-like for my taste. I've tried to get on with it; it's gorgeous to play, but I feel I need to pass it on and get something in return that I will use. Cheers

    [quote name='mattjones_81' post='937660' date='Aug 26 2010, 11:05 PM']Would you be interested in a cash sale of the guild? if so how much? thanks[/quote] Not really lookingfor a cash sale, but rather a swap. Any offers? Just message/email me. Cheers, Gareth

    Would be interested in swaps for soemthing decent, fretted / fretless, preferably 5-string. What you got folks?
  19. gareth1982
    had a few enquiries so far...anyone else interested in either?
  20. gareth1982
    OK, I have a 1976 Guild B-301 bass in cream with a black scratchplate, totally original, and a 1999 Gibson Les Paul 5 string bass in black with EMG humbuckers and I am looking to swap either for something decent, preferably 5 string, maybe fretless (I'd consider a fretless 4 string). Please, nothing rubbish though. Something like a decent Warwick, Musicman, Fender, Lakland or the like. Message me with any offers. Oh, and I'm based in Barnsley, Yorkshire and work in Leeds.
