    The best version of Fever ever recorded IMHO. Atmosphere by the bucketload...

    [quote name='spinynorman' post='719114' date='Jan 20 2010, 03:19 PM']Oddly, that isn't quite as funny as some of the real audiophile sites. These people have gone beyond parody. Things haven't changed much since the 1950s. [url="http://members.optusnet.com.au/pennywyatt/Interests/FlandersSwann/DropOfaHat/At%20the%20Drop%20of%20a%20Hat02.html"]http://members.optusnet.com.au/pennywyatt/...0a%20Hat02.html[/url][/quote] True, but at least in the 1950s, a lot more people understood what was going on inside the box, and a large proportion of hi-fi buffs actually built and modified their own gear, the cutting edge was new and devious ways to add a resistor here, change a coil there and properly tweak gear in search of better clarity, which was (on the whole) much needed in the earlier days. Thats how the term "High Fidelity" was coined, as most equipment back then was not capable of reproducing speech or music clearly enough for you to think you were in the room with them. Now, its all back to snake oil as even the hardened audiophiles just want to see pretty design, and be conned into buying stuff like those wooden sound cones and green CD pens. +1 for the Flanders and Swann stuff, ahh, the old days

    [quote name='peted' post='718878' date='Jan 20 2010, 12:18 PM']Over years my bass has slowly migrated from dangling down by my knees to just below my rib-cage. That's been over the space of years, can't say there's any movement during any single gig![/quote] That'll serve you right for washing and tumble drying the strap after each gig

    Brand new unused Energizer 9v industrial alkalines. I have a couple of hundred of these languishing in my storeroom. I am never going to use them all before the expiry dates (2013-2014, minimum 3 years), so I am selling them off cheap. They are as good as Duracells, if not better. Box of 12 for 12.00 inc postage. Box of 72 for 60.00 inc postage. Just searched Google, this is absolutely the cheapest anywhere. PM me for Paypal details.

    [quote name='Sarah5string' post='711031' date='Jan 13 2010, 10:50 AM']Go on stage.... play a kick ass bass solo. Set your headstock on fire and then twirl it round your neck without setting yourself on fire. Then stop playing and leave. Don't put the fire out. You want to leave them something to remember. Like the venue burning down. [/quote] Didn't Great White do that a few years ago

    Sooo tempting, but can't justify it while I'm still looking for thru-neck graphite! Have a free bump anyway!

    Lovely, rock solid home or pub/small club amp. 60 watts, parametric EQ, pre-amp out/power amp in, line out on XLR, headphone jack, ext speaker out, this is a very well equipped little amp. Good condition except for one snapped corner, and a bit of ingrained dust, slight crackle on volume knob, this thing is 20 years old remember! £100, pick up/meet London area. No postage, sorry!
