  1. Komasywhateveryou're called...please go away and stop trying to scam people on here. Mods, pm me if you want an explanation. Pete, I'm sure you know, but the person is a fake! They might be better than us at rugby, but this Frenchman is 'try'ing it on (haha!) It's unbelievable how many pm's I get from French socalled basschat members with zero feedback who have only just registered on here wanting to buy that les Paul I've had for sale for ages. I wish they (or he) would just go and f*ck off.

  2. Not a silly question at all mate! Honest answer is that I don't know; but, it has no binding on the edge of the body for example, so, going on what little I know about how Gibson brand their guitars, I'd say it is the no frills 'studio'; but nowhere does it say it, and I don't have a manual for it or anything. Any advice from anyone would be appreciated. It certainly doesn't have a figured maple top or anything like that. It's flat and kind of slab bodied (and heavy), which means it sustains for an eternity, and is not great therefore and reproducing Motown basslines which is what I play!

    I work in Leeds, so if you ever wanted to get your hands on it for a good look/tinker, I'd be happy to meet up

    Cheers

  3. Hi; Here are a couple of live recordings of my new band Stateside 45 [url="http://stateside45.co.uk/"]http://stateside45.co.uk/[/url]

    You've Been Gone Too Long - [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/phatsounds1966#p/a/u/0/BunyKzUJ3F0"]http://www.youtube.c...u/0/BunyKzUJ3F0[/url] (northern soul)

    Open The Door To Your Heart - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R20Y07dFzvg"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R20Y07dFzvg[/url] (northern soul)


    We do soul/motown/stax/atlantic/philly kinda soul.

    We're based in Yorkshire. Hope you guys like!

    Should add that I used my Gordon Smith bass strung with Labella Deep Talkin' flats, rather than my usual weapon of choice, my Precision. I'd forgotten we we recording and having a few pics taken when I turned up for rehearsal on Saturday!

  4. [quote name='clarkpegasus4001' post='1356696' date='Aug 30 2011, 07:19 PM']I didn't know about adding your email address to the auction because I didn't think it was allowed by Ebay?[/quote]

    They've never stopped me. I always put something like 'for more info, use the ask seller a question tab or drop me a line at [email protected]'

    I've done it a few times actually. Why make eBay rich(er)?

  5. [quote name='SS73' post='1356189' date='Aug 30 2011, 12:34 PM']When you get the 10% final value fee and then the 4% PPal fee, i'm putting my email address in the ad's now in the hope I get some contact and sell outside the bay.[/quote]

    I've just sold my Guild B-301 fretless via that method seeing as I was getting little to no interest on here (I did want that Marcus Miller Jazz though if you're reading it!) (ie listing on ebay for free last weekend, link to photobucket with lots of pics, and putting my email addy in the listing). Cost - precisely nothing. Fees - nothing. And I got what I wanted for it, so everyone's happy. He emailed me after it had ended (with 0 bids) and I let him have it for 20 quid less than the starting bid (which was 30 quid more than what I wanted for it to offset the potential ebay fees).....And breathe

  6. Sorry to be a pain in the proverbial, but exactly how long is the other strap (the levys one)? I'm a big lad with 9 (i think) basses, or is it 8?! All have got decent straps on them but some arent long enough to hang at a comfy level, and i end up looking like a fat (and talentless) mark king (ie, bass up around my ears). If you could measure it, that would be great, and I'll go measure my long one (ooh err!) and see how they compare? Jesus; that sounds gay; not that there's owt wrong with being gay. Christ....oh god, that's blaspheming....and so was that....but you understand i hope?!

    Cheers

  7. Yea, I think you're right actually! Good luck with the trade mate :)

    [quote name='grimbeaver' post='1351565' date='Aug 25 2011, 05:33 PM']Dont want the guild thanks.
