    [quote name='odysseus' timestamp='1466098731' post='3073379'] Years ago I was in a band that did a lot of grunge. If we did one of the first tracks off an album, we often used to play the second one just after. Pearl Jam's Once was followed by Even Flow, Alice In Chains' Them Bones was followed by Dam That River etc. Dunno why but some punters used to go nuts over that. *shrug* [/quote] I'd love this...I think because you hear these albums so many times on repeat, you know what the next track is etc... If you hear a band covering Once, then in your head you've got the intro to Even Flow going on, and then the band actually plays it...I can see the appeal!

    [quote name='charic' timestamp='1465451777' post='3068268'] That needs a black scratch plate [/quote] Wouldn't mind trying that, or indeed a clear one!

    [quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1465057411' post='3065025'] £70???? Bargain. [/quote] Snapped it up! Anyone know where to get a valuation on it? As information online (ebay sold items, a good Google search) seems to be scarce!

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1464987088' post='3064531'] See what you've done, you've brought the EpiGib out in us all. YOU are responsible for NEW GAS. Muzz, that's a cracker as well. [/quote] Awfully sorry. I know how bad it can be. If someone wants to find the blue version of this however, I may be happy to come to an agreement

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1464983648' post='3064481'] I'm a well renowed tasteless tart, but I think that would look most splendid with ALL gold hardware, plus pups covers, plus scratchplate. [/quote] Gold or chrome, I would totally agree with either!
  6. thatgrantboy
    That's not too bad for the parts, but yeah, when the bass was just £70...!

    [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1464946619' post='3063956'] I'd like to see that colour with the full chrome hardware - pup covers, surrounds, etc… [/quote] As would I! I love the chrome hardware on the tbirds, and this would really pop with it. I feel I'd spend more acquiring the chrome than I paid for the bass though! :')

    So on Monday evening something interesting popped up on a local for sale page, needed some work and cleaning up to get it back to what would be a very decent condition, and (rather uncharacteristically) I pulled the trigger impulsively (after haggling a price). So for the grand total of £70 and some elbow grease and soldering, I give you this: An Epiphone Thunderbird Limited Edition Metallic Red finish- I'm looking forward to giving it a good punt through my new rig (needs it's own NGD topic!), but its a looker! I'd be interested to know what the resale value would be too, as I can't find much info anywhere, or indeed previous sales!

    Picked this little guy up Tuesday, then set about fixing it all up and making it pretty again! What I paid for it was a steal, however I'm not sure what it's worth now! (Epiphone Thunderbird Limited Edition Metallic Red finish)

    Paid Jez a visit today to try out a pair of Ashdown cabs before snapping them up off him. Fantastic bloke to deal with, great communication...don't hesitate to deal with him

    Much like what the Behringer AB-100 would allow then? (won't let me paste the link). Two inputs, a level adjustment on each, and the option to put them to the same out. Tis lower end of the market, but I'm sure there are higher-end options out there! edit: Or a Boss AB-2 (though no line level control)

    Could you buy an A/B line switcher type pedal to do that? Less cumbersome than a mixer of some sort, perhaps.

    Ahh if I can clear some finances, I'll snap these up off you! Not too far away in Gloucestershire/Swindon either

    Wondering if this is the one I sold on - came out of a combo with the power amp section too, which I built a new enclosure for, and tolexed in grass green. If it is or isn't, its the exact same preamp, and MAN I'd love to hear that thing in the setup its pictured in! GLWTS anyway, and have a free bump for a beautiful sounding preamp!

    Bump. Will be open to selling them both individually. GAS is killing me - help a brother out!
  18. thatgrantboy
    Upwards.
  19. thatgrantboy
    Bump.

    [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Testing the water here a little...looking to trade the following two basses for one. We have an SX Jazz and a Squier Jaguar, looking at a trade value of around £340 for both.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Would like to trade for a Fender/fender shaped 4 string.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif](Can add a fitted hardcase in with the Jaguar too for the right offer - and yes, the diamond will come off with ease!)[/font][/color] Jaguar has had the bridge upgraded to a Gotoh 201, and the Jazz has had the same upgrade, plus Fender US pickups. Jaguar is in very good condition, and the Jazz has some buckle rash on the back. Both play very well however. Would sell both separately for £160 each (to put funds towards a new bass), and would prefer the hardcase to be sold with the jaguar (£200 inc that). Based just off J33 of the M4 in South Wales. Open to posting, providing I get my hands on decent packaging (which shouldnt be too much of a problem). Can calculate that cost, and provide more photos, on request.

    Ah cheers, too shallow unfortunately
  22. thatgrantboy
    Is the bass big muff including postage?
  23. thatgrantboy
    How deep is this, minus doors?
  24. thatgrantboy
    Price drop to £150.

    Looking for a quick sale on this cab. Its a vintage 15" Trace Elliot driver loaded into a well used Marshall cab. Handling is 200w @ 8ohms. Lovely crisp, punchy tone to it! Based just off J33 of the M4 in South Wales. Priced to sell quickly!
