  1. I had one in black which I acquired for very little. Great bass for what I paid...
  2. Twist and crawl - The Beat
  3. Picked up a Spector Performer in a trade. Glad to have a Spector back in the armoury.
  4. The summer wind came blowin' in... with a special Virtual Concert! Our Virtual Concert Series makes a welcome return with a summer spectacular! As always, join us on YouTube at 7:00pm, Tuesday 15 June, where the concert will be broadcast FREE. If you're already raring to sing along, relive all previous concerts on our channel. Since last May, our Virtual Concerts have featured over 120 performances by member groups — including a fabulous festive showpiece in December — championing the wonderful variety of music leisure-time musicians have continued making throughout the pandemic. Tuesday night's concert will be as rich and tuneful as ever, featuring classics from The Beatles and Pentatonix, Stopford's 'Ave Maria', a young orchestra drawing inspiration from a Swiss folk hero, and much more. So grab some fruit for your Pimm's and lemonade, sink into that comfy deckchair, and start your summer in the right way with the finest musical accompaniment from across the UK! WATCH CONCERTS
  5. Sun-day Sunday - Mamas & Papas
  6. I will sell 10% of my idea for £75,000.
  7. Looking good!!!
  8. I think you get an extra sticker which says "Custom shop" on it.......probably doesn't affect the tone though.
  9. Boom shake the room - Will Smith
  10. I've heard that said before. Here's the new acquisition
  11. Back in the Spector family after trading in a Spector Performer 5 string... Photos to follow...
  12. Dancin in the street - Martha and the Vandellas
  13. Big Love - Fleetwood Mac
  14. Top of the Pops - The Rezillos
  15. Yamaha knobs!!!
  16. Watching the tracking info on the PF website for a bass to arrive at my local (1m) depot so I can go and collect rather than wait another day.

    Reminds me of a Bob Marley track....

      I did not know you could do that!? So as soon as it says it's 'at the local depot'... you can just go and get it???

      I'm assuming so - my depot is about a mile away and a number of my friends work there so if ID isn't enough....

      Fortunately it arrived bright and early (8.30) delivered by somebody I went to school with.

      "I did not know you could do that!? So as soon as it says it's 'at the local depot'... you can just go and get it???"

      Not a good idea unfortunately - the drivers will be in the depot loading their vans from 6.00 am, the tracking might well show that your bass is at the local depot, but within an hour or so, once loaded onto a route the bass will stay on the van until an attempted delivery is made.

      If you are now at the depot trying to collect your bass while at the same time the driver is at your address ringing your doorbell.... well you can see how this ends ☹️

       

       

  17. Albatross - F Mac
  18. Good to hear positive reports about the RBX range. I did a couple of trades recently with a fella who bought one for Reggae - he wasn't happy. I suggested changing the strings - he believed the strings were SS but wasn't aware they are probably the brightest option (except maybe the EBS Titanium). Haven't spoken to him for a few weeks to see if his opinion has changed. Glad you're happy - there are lots of Yamaha fans here.
  19. @AndyTravis was also looking for a set - no idea if he found them...
  20. I live in Herts - been done to death... Not too far for me but I don't know this model. Why is it such a bargain??
  21. Book of Love - Fleetwood Mac
  22. I've seen Sly & Robbie many times - Sly Dunbar often goes off on a tangent but keeps the riddim going. Must be those French cigarettes.
  23. Bad Girls - Donna Summer
  24. This is Margaret Thatcher https://vrcpitbull.com/dogs/margaret-thatcher/
  25. That's a nice looking bass...good variety of tones . I know nothing about the brand which may be the case with other BCers hence the lack of interest. If you can afford to keep it, I would.
