  1. I was wondering what the most popular bass is at the moment? My friend is having trouble selling a couple of guitars and won't stick them on ebay, so I suggested to him that he should trade them in at the local music store and get a bass that will sell easily. I recommended him the US made Fenders...

  4. I've got a spare 4 Ohm 200w RMS Peavey 2x10 cab that i'm not using and a 150w RMS Crate amp, would you consider a straight trade? My bro lives in Newcastle and I could send it up with him next time he vists? If so I can take pics, the crate amp is brand new pretty much and perfect for carrying around... comes in it's own specially designed carry case The Peavey had a horn that pissed me off to the extent that I removed it, i've still got it somewhere but believe me... it's better off without it, gives a really thick meaty tone now and doesn't rasp. It is in good condition, i've repaired the protective cloth myself and I did a good job so it's aesthetically in pretty good shape as well. EDIT:I used this set up for practice until I got an Ashdown combo, it's plenty loud enough and isn't a hassle size wise... I used to actually live in Sunderland and Newcastle, and took them to practice on the metro
  5. Yo, how much are we talking for this bass? I really like it!
  6. He didn't reply to my questions so I decided to go no further than my £531 bid and it sold for £620... really wanted the bugger as well
  7. I was wondering how much I should be paying for one of these, there is one on the bay at £500 currently. The retail for about £1100 right, so what is a reasonable figure to go for or not go past?
  8. It's better to be safe than sorry man, i've broken a strap on stage about two years ago and the only reason I could continue was because I had a spare on my back up, i've also had a string break before I was on stage due to some prat tech saying my bass was out of tune and trying to tune it himself... Of course broken strings, battery packs dieing...etc are always going to happen if you gig regularly, unless your really lucky. So just buy a cheap back up, like an SX or a Peavey.
  9. Just joined up, been playing bass for a while now. No band at the moment, just taking a year out from uni and i've decided to either start or join a band while i'm working full time. I play mainly punk and metalcore, but I have played in Black Metal bands in the past. Just finished selling all my old stuff so I can start fresh...etc So you will see my new rig taking shape first hand soon Looking either at a 6x10 (SWR, Bergantino or maybe Ampeg?) or an 8x10 (Peavey, Ampeg or Orange if I can find the holy grail). Orange AD200 And at a later date something a bit more dirty like a jcm800 or an SVT-CL? Guitar wise Euro Spector P/J 4 string Not sure what i'm going to add to that but i've seen another Spector for sale locally... and I would like to try out the SX basses since although i'm not a huge fan of the Fenders, i've heard that in terms of bang for your buck... they are pretty damn good! Always wanted a ric 4001 as well but i've had a 4003 in the past and I didn't get on with it at all even though I loved the sounds it made. But realistically I need a 5 string of some sort so i'll see if I can get myself one of those 5 String Music Man SUB's although they are out of production, I do see them around.
