[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1455369471' post='2978490'] [i]Modern = contemporary, not antiquated... up to date.[/i] In my opinion relevance is more important than being [i]modern [/i]as [i]modern [/i]has a close association with that which is currently fashionable. Modern bass player = up to date, contemporary and closely aligned to current trend (even if that is a trend for old technology or ideology) Relevant bass player = meaningful and impactive (often regardless of the norm or current trend) [/quote] ................oooops, nodded off there.......

[quote name='aLxbass' timestamp='1452083956' post='2946180'] If you're on the full website is shows peoples locations on the left hand side of their post under their username.. [/quote]only if they've input the info in their profile which isn't always the case, even gary mac (a couple of posts above), one of the mods, has put his location as 'not up north'

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1452083461' post='2946170'] Shonks, I've moved this to GD. For what it's worth, I think sellers should put a location, particularly if it is collection only. My feeling is that it should not be mandatory though. [/quote]posted in the wrong forum....apologies

To the moderators of this excellent site: Forgive for saying so, and forgive me if its been said previously, but don't you think it should be mandatory for sellers to clearly state the location of an item that's for sale? Price is mandatory and equally important to all parties is the location. If no location is mentioned, as is often the case, going to the sellers profile can be equally frustrating, and a bit questionable, when there's little no information other than a username. In fact I'm surprised a site such as this doesn't insist on the location information in the profile to begin with, seeing as how large sums of money or valuable instruments are be traded. Still a great site nevertheless Shonks

[quote name='lonestar' timestamp='1449254204' post='2922041'] Like a guitard but more stupider [/quote]i think there's one of those in 'other musically related stuff'

I want to hook up with any outstanding guitar players round my way.....put them in touch if you know any. [email protected]

Maybe they can sight read music fluently which is a Iot more than most bassists here....if we're talking about literacy
