  1. Due to the need to free up some cash for another bass i am prepared to listen to sensible offers on this give me a try i can only say no cheers steve
  2. saturday morning bump
  3. [quote name='bassjamm' post='237010' date='Jul 11 2008, 01:49 AM']I played this at Richard's a few days before it sold. It's a cracking bass, solid, and the worn look is great in the flesh!!![/quote] Thanks for that it does indeed play well and looks stunning photo's do not do it justice in any way steve
  4. [quote name='BassManKev' post='236474' date='Jul 10 2008, 01:15 PM']that is exactly what a vintage fender should look like[/quote] Thanks Kev i know it looks the dogs, plays well too but just not really what i'm after ! as i said maybe i'm just a heathen
  5. Not sure about this however here goes, bought this from Richard on here as part of a 3 way deal, having always coveted a 70's fender the problem is while it is a great bass i can't see it replacing my Lakland BG can't explain why just me being a heathen i guess ! but the fact is it is too good a bass to have sat around as a back up The bass has an original 73 body, neck with Rosewood board and tuners, has been fitted with seymour duncan quarter pounders in the neck and bridge routes, i have attached a link to the original post for pics but if anyone wants anymore i'll take some tonight and post them. Rich had all the frets dressed and i've had it professionally set up since i got it. So just putting out the feelers out for a sale or possible trade, would be interested in fairly recent Fender P in either Sunburst or Black with maple board, lakland, in fact if your interested hit me with what you've got i can only say no, obviously cash adjustment either way. for straight sale would be looking around 850 plus postage. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21473"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21473[/url] some pics now added if any one wants anymore please pm me with an e mail address and i will send them, apologies about the quality of the photography had to do it at work will try and get some better ones up over the weekend.

  9. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='193989' date='May 7 2008, 04:20 PM']Thank God.........[/quote] couldn't have put it better myself Nick, that would have gone so well with the BG's
  10. Saw them last week in Blackpool great sound and a great venue nice mix of classic james and new material and the bonus was they didn't play sit down !!!!
  11. It appears everyone has the same problems our guitarist has a habit of claiming not to have time to learn songs he doesn't like but amazingly always manages to be in a position to play his own choices, generally it's quite a democratic process but is a tad frustrating that we have to go all round the houses to get there, i think we should just accept that we will all have to occaisionally play songs we don't particularly like because of the nature of the gigs we play where our primary function is to ensure that people who book us have a great night. quite obviously there is no easy answer to this
  12. Just on the topic of learning new songs, i would be interested to know if other people in covers bands have the same trouble agreeing on new material that we have. All of us bar our keyboard player are in our forties and have such a varied taste choosing new songs is a nightmare also our ideas of what works and what doesn't are so varied. Finally and i know i've gone a it off thread but how often do people tend to learn new material our lead guitarist thinks we should only learn 2 new songs a year which i think is ridiculous as for me half the enjoyment is learning new stuff, we play roughly once or twice a month and mainly functions and have a playlist of about 50-60 songs ! just interested in other peoples method to see if it is as difficult as ours.
  13. What is it about lead guitarists, i could start a thread on it's own about how much they annoy me, Why is it when our singer and myself are crawling around setting up the PA and lights, monitors etc he is stood with his marshall stack playing a succession of riffs at a hideous volume Why is it in my experience that they want to be paid top dollar for weddings etc but don't seem to want to learn songs that are popular at these events because they don't involve a 4 minute solo, To make matters worse the guitarist in our band while extremely talented is stuck in the 70's and thinks anything post 1980 is spawn of the devil. Finally +1 for people not learning songs before rehearsal, we recently had a discussion about a couple of new songs for our set our drummer suggested Chelsea Dagger which we agreed on, we then got to rehearsal and i asked him if he had listened to the drumming for the breaks etc to be informed he hadn't got the song and had only heard it on the radio !!!!! Anyway rant over i'm sure there are many things i do that annoy my band mates !
  14. This is now sold pending the usual, thanks for all the interest, and Neil is quite right it does make a great racklight. cheers steve
  15. Having just bought a Korg dtr 2000 from these pages i now have for sale a Behringer BTR 2000 rack tuner,it is about 9 months old and in excellent condition. Have the instruction manual but not the original box however will be well packaged. Looking for 20 quid plus postage. will post pics if anyone so desires cheers steve
  16. I have a behringer at the moment and while it's ok i find it a bit inconsistent so have been looking for one of these for a while ! Although the prospect of a mega rack does have a certain appeal !!!!
  17. You have a pm sir cheers steve
  18. [quote name='Smash' post='173006' date='Apr 9 2008, 12:25 PM']Thank goodness for Adee, I was looking at what I could sell....[/quote] sure my bank manager will second that ! i agree get it bought you will not be disapointed this has to be the bargain of the decade
  19. [quote name='Marcus' post='172891' date='Apr 9 2008, 10:02 AM']Let's look at this...... Laklands are without doubt Hot Basses Precisions are Flavour of the Month Villex Mods are considered top notch, tastefull mods for your P Black Maple is Soooooo Cool £600 is about the right price 2nd hand for this bass This Particular Instrument is (definately) one of the better examples of the Lakland Skyline series What the hell's it doing up for sale still ? I think we're all skint / unsure of the economy is the only conclusion really ! Great Bass - well worth getting into debt for [/quote] never a truer word spoken, somebody buy this quick before i end up with another !!!! am trying to think of reasons why someone shouldn't buy this and i can't !!!
  20. [quote name='Marcus' post='172831' date='Apr 9 2008, 08:38 AM']This is about the daftest price i've ever seen for a bass ! £470 for a Lakland Bob Glaub with very tasteful mods !! ??[/quote] your not kidding i paid 600 for mine without the mods and still think i got a good deal ! is everyone skint or are laklands not the flavour of the month at the moment ?
  21. I have 2 of these and love them even without the mods this would be a steal, can't believe no one has bought this have a free bump on me ! cheers steve
  22. Met up with Martin last night to complete the deal on his BG yet another great guy to deal with on basschat excellent bass at a great price. Great to meet you Martin, hope the deal for the P goes through ok and the gig goes well tonight. cheers steve
