Don't push it, don't faucet it - Leon Hayward

If I turn it up there's a good chance that my windows might though....

Far too many... Trace Elliot: Elf, a AH500, AH300, 3x AH150, AH250 combo Ashdown Little Giant GK Backline 100w Peterson 150w combo I think that's all of them.

Query about the Aguilar Pre that I bought - Ash (Marcus' younger brother) in the store on his own - Mark and Marcus away in Spain.

Congratulations - seems that you've had a change of fortunes - may long it continue.🤞

Drop subtle hints to your loved ones and hope that they will buy it for your birthday or early Xmas present. Or just buy it.

I went through a stage of buying high end basses - can't take them anywhere or use them without worrying that they may get dropped/ knocked/ damaged .

Monday Monday - Mamas and Papas

9 to 5 - Dolly

Didn't deal with Jezza directly but managed to get my grubby mitts on one of his shorty creations - the 5er, in fact. Absolutely fantastic!! Must thank him for building it in the first place....still waiting for @dodgnofski to post photos of his.

Positive feedback for our man Owen but this transaction probably puts him in the running for the Most Foolish Person 2023. Why?, you might ask. Anybody attending any of the Bass Bashes in the lower half of the country will have seen the amazing basses that Jezza ( @Jabba_the_gut) builds. Amazing and beautiful little creations - and also probably know how difficult it is to part Jezza from them - he being the perfectionist that he is. This transaction with Owen involved him parting with the 5 string that he manage to wrestle from Jezza - yes, I know - how mad must he be!!! Here's the little beauty. You can understand why he qualifies for the title now. In fact it might be an idea if we have a collection to buy him a little padded coat which does up at the back. He's was an absolute gent the whole way through - lots of great correspondence throughout keeping the deal as simple as possible. An asset to this forum. Trade with confidence (if he hasn't been locked by then)

The Laughing Gnome - Mr Bowie

Touch me in the morning - Diana Ross

I bought a bass where the seller wouldn't book the courier but agreed to pack. They sent the wrong dimensions and ended up having to pay a significant fee (about £40 IIRC). Get it right or deal with the consequences.

Crawling from the wreckage - Graham Parker / Dave Edmunds

There was a NT one on one of the forums recently. I'll see if I can find the ads.

Didn't even know these existed. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134653310651?hash=item1f59f676bb:g:GfIAAOSwoZZksXpN&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwOkBU3T1Smqog7gRRiZn5dC%2BYJphT%2BXW6jDNk%2F54PxgpONip5OFOKnaDFLV5FvzR2lnRhpUF7znGbgWQkY6OFFIjjaQCWB6Yj%2FWRmtuTDdUeuOk9Prw3QoscPopeTjpwc9%2BodMMkfnxRGiu9ikKICuLmV5GyY71%2FQs3uxJSFMvokVWdd2JOwkvWKZMKy2TXObmDRffG7DCZ7xkchbnbD%2B17Sxme93YQ8OJyyGZkE%2FRIazrOBM4GF1AIVa17KpjkKDg%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9DQsvStYg

I have more than one - they are ridiculously cheap and simple to use - once you have the hang of saving amended settings you really are away.
