Basses and Cars - What's up with that?
neepheid replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in General Discussion
Ahh, it's that side of the bed this morning. I've got out of that side before too. so many tags... -
Being associated with a particular piece of gear
neepheid replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in General Discussion
With my constant rotation of basses, I'm highly unlikely to be associated with any particular model. -
What jolly rotten luck!
-
I've occasionally received a duplicate of something and been told just to keep it. It's always been something small. I doubt Thomann will let me keep two Sire D5 basses, should the "lost" one I recently documented magically appear at a later date.
-
Aaaaaaaaaand, we're off again! D5 vs. DHL, round two, ding ding!
-
Money back AND keep the item? I would have expected one or the other...
-
So, a used TU-2 then...
-
My ex's granny called that "friends with everyone".
-
Nope, half way between (unless you go for made to order then you can have whatever you like, as long as they offer it) From the website - "The return of the classic “C”-shape 1 5/8” neck, discontinued by G&L in the 1980s"
-
There you go. Welcome to the endgame
-
That and nuclear holocaust are the only two reasons a TU-2 needs replacing
-
Boss TU-2. Had it for at least 15 years. Will probably get a TU-3 if it ever dies.
-
Oh well, it's electric boogaloo time!
-
No, just the fact that it was dispatched by Thomann, then nada.
-
Surely they still need to check that the paperwork is in order and verify that they have, indeed been prepaid? Agreed that this no tracking until it passes into the UK part of the journey does suck.
-
Update - I just got an email from Thomann - they have declared the package lost. Got offered a refund or a replacement. Have opted for the replacement, on the basis that I'm willing to test my luck and the bass is £160 dearer at Andertons right now.
-
I think I might have been refunded by Thomann. Haven't got an email about it yet, but something suggesting store credit being paid to my card has come up in my order history, even though it looks like a new bass order, which confused me greatly. I await official news...
-
Well, that's 2 weeks since it was dispatched from Thomann, still not heard a peep on the tracking since then I've continued to bug Thomann about it - noised them up on Monday, they got back to me on Tuesday to say they'll investigate from their end to see what's going on. HMRC - give me my bloody bass!
-
Just to confuse the “Tone” debate further!
neepheid replied to Velarian's topic in General Discussion
Sorry, but unless there is actual liquid gold dripping off this bass, it is figuratively dripping in gold. I cannot abide how people use "literally" to mean "very". -
Of course, it doesn't help when customs get involved and kidnap your stuff for as many days as they feel like, regardless of the direction of travel...
-
By Internet logic, that automatically means that all Squier 40th Anniversary models blow all Fender CS models out of the water, because reasons!
-
In case you hadn't noticed, it's the same five of us having cyclic arguments about the P bass being the one true bass or not...
-
You fscking liar!
-
I can't stand that song. I have no idea why it's so popular, it's a drudge to play and the only reason its in the set is for the audience. Oh well, smile and give the people what they want...
-
Yes, but all I want is to be heard, while sounding good in a band context, and I'm the one who defines "good" as the chosen subject specialist for the evening. I will have given zero thought to, nor sought the opinion of the audience - and that is because the vast majority of them don't have one.
