    If it makes you feel any better, BTS_Spacebass's USA Spector 5-string which was [topic="116866"]listed on BC[/topic] for the very decent price of £1,000... then £900... then £800, just [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110637355808&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_949"]sold on eBay[/url] for a measly [b]£580[/b]. I'm gutted because I missed the end of the auction and didn't buy it. I can't imagine how [i]he [/i]feels. Very sad indeed

    I must admit it does seem that you are, with respect, a bit of a Warwick fanboi. Nothing wrong with that, they're great instruments as you say - just not for me. But what I don't understand is why, if you love them so, are you defecting to the other side?? If you love your Warwick, don't sell it. Play it, and spread the word! Perhaps you can help drive the resale value back up a bit (Edited for typo)

    If you don't have a speaker cable with you and you're desperate, you [i]can[/i] use a decent instrument cable to connect - that is, it will 'work' - but it is [i]not [/i]designed for the job and I would advise only doing this in an emergency. I have done it recently with my 240W RMS solid state Ampeg and it worked fine, but it was a small cabinet at relatively low volume. I still didn't feel comfortable with it. I don't think I'd have tried it with anything more sensitive / valuable, or at higher volumes. It's not just the cable you're risking, it could damage the amp or the speakers. I'm no electrical/electronics engineer, but as I understand it instrument cables are designed to transmit very low power signals, not the high energy signals that an amplifier needs to transmit in order to move those speakers at high velocity. Speaker cabinets are passive, remember, so the electricity required to move the coils all comes down that cable! It stands to reason that a specific design of cable should be used. Gentlemen, please feel free to correct any inaccuracies - I'm here to learn Cheers, Stuee.

It was worth the drive.[/quote] Does that mean this amp is now sold? Leszek, please amend your topic title to reflect [b]*SOLD*[/b] status, as per forum rules. Shemeck, this is an English forum and all public communication should be in English please. PM if you would like to use a different language. Thanks.

That wasn't there when I viewed it - he did a cheeky edit [quote name='Bassman101' post='1103086' date='Jan 26 2011, 01:33 AM']I dont mind posting, but i would really have to check the details of that out as ive not posted a bass in a huge case like this before, and dimension restrictions might screw me over.[/quote] Get yourself over to either [url="http://www.parcelmonkey.co.uk/"]www.parcelmonkey.co.uk[/url] or [url="http://www.parcel2go.com/"]www.parcel2go.com[/url]. They make things very easy to do, and it's really inexpensive. They use DHL, Home Delivery Network, etc. (I usually opt for DHL) and the price includes collection and delivery. 9 times out of 10 it all happens in 24 hrs, regardless of choosing 48 hr or 2-3 day service - they are excellent. You can send pretty large things and up to 25kg I think. The only thing that can drive the price up is if you need insurance on a valuable item. Anyway, worth a look. I use it all the time to save money buying things from eBay. Seller says £12, I say I'll arrange my own courier thanks - £4.95

    [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='1103057' date='Jan 26 2011, 12:50 AM']Any chance of gutshots? Totally can't afford it unless you wanna do some severe trading, but totally curious.[/quote] Thanks for the interest, Mr. Foxen. I'm not keen to take it apart, but I will be adding HQ photos as soon as we get some decent whether around here! The right light makes all the difference Feel free to PM me with any stuff you might have to trade. You never know! Cheers, Stuee.

    You have to specify a price mate, or admin will remove the post. It doesn't have to be firm, but at least a ballpark figure. As a tip, I'd advise working hard on borrowing a better camera from somewhere. The better the pics, the easier you will find it to sell your bass. And details of your whereabouts, whether viewing is possible and whether you will courier, etc., would be useful info to add. Good luck with the sale! Cheers, Stuee

    Would you mind doing us a favour and amending your topic title please? It should say *WITHDRAWN*. I just wasted about 5 minutes reading through all the info about these bags. Thanks, Stuee.

    I might be up for one of these sets, but you have omitted to list individual prices Cieran. Any chance?

    Just bought a pair of Chord patch cables from Marc, which arrived quickly and as described, packaged nicely in their original box from Chord. Nice comms & a pleasure to deal with. Thanks mate :-)

I'm not sure what you mean by that. They are pictured on the Avatar website horizontally and the logo badges are stuck on that way too...?

    Not to jump on the bandwagon or anything, but it does look like it was thrown together out of brand new looky-likey parts and beaten up slightly, approximately err... yesterday! I don't trust it one bit. Grrrrrr...

    I can tell you from experience that in-ear-monitoring (without an amp) in a live situation (or any for that matter) SUCKS for bass. There are so many things about it that I dislike anyway (some down to personal preference, some practicality, some vibe-related, + the fear of being deafened), but the main thing that is more specific to bass is that without an amp or decent monitor you can't [b]feel[/b] anything, and we all know you have to feel bass, not just hear it. One thing you could do, if the engineer is up for it, is augment your in-ears by having a sub unit on stage with you. This won't interfere with any live mic's but it should at least let you feel a little of what you're doing. Worth talking to him about it anyway.

    Have a look at this chaps, see what you think: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yZIeDUPTf8&feature=related"]How to plug a screw hole in a guitar neck[/url]

    Oh I seeee! I thought you'd actually physically found one. I've been after one of these for a while, but I'm not getting one I haven't touched, especially when you've gotta pay import duty, VAT and everything else. Interesting though, ta!
