  1. I better swipe the gk speakon pleas nik. just had 2 made up as well.
  2. Repaired not serviced, as if they repair a fult usually it'll get a bench test and a squirt here and there then good as new.
  3. and with that you get a g'tee.
  4. Bump, do you want to be more specific on your trades, it may raise a few interesting objects from the members vaults. I know you did at the top of the thread...
  5. cool, thats way cheaper than a pair of new mackies and better kit by a mile, now essex you say, im in essex too, near southend so any good for a meet and a look, the only issue I have is Ive got to sell 2 carlsbro gamma 1x12s and a phonic power mixer, but thats my problem and if my band will stump up the dosh then we could have a deal...but these are all my problems not yours, thanks for the reply, please feel free to pm me to go a little further. regards, Nigel.
  6. an offer that wouldnt be an insult...Im not sure what that would be as I was looking for some active cabs, give me a clue. thanks.
  7. bump for the reverend, when I had the dosh I couldnt find one...
  8. report of George passing away on the 4th. [url="http://<a%20href="http://www.guitarsbyleo.com/gldp/messages/1477.php3"%20target="_blank">http://www.guitarsbyleo.com/gldp/messages/1477.php3</a>"] http://www.guitarsbyleo.com/gldp/messages/1477.php3[/url] If so it is a very sad day for all players. George was a very kind man and I often kidded around with him at the G&L booth at NAMM. One time Will Ray was just up there wailing away and I nudged george to go show him how it was done old school. George laughed pretty hard at that idea. Said his skills weren't quite like the old days. Thanks for all you have given us George and RIP. courtesy jim BABP
  9. [quote name='casapete' post='533187' date='Jul 5 2009, 06:19 PM']Set of Elites off my Hohner B2A Steinberger bass (may actually have another set if I can find them too!) . 40-60-80-100 gauge. Used but not completely shot ! Yours for the p&p.[/quote] Ive just serviced one for a mate and need some strings, if they are roundwounds im yer man, thanks.
  10. Hi, My ray from 79 came with the mm logo strap, I still have it and the bass, wouldnt mind that sabre too.
  11. When I worked im music shop retail in the mid 80's Keith Hand who went on to run the shop doctor rock, which is still there but sadly I believe Keith has passed on, was part of gordon smith, we stocked gordon smith guitard and he brought in a red and blue shift bass, he was having these built after splitting from gordon smith, I remembered they had a stingray profile neck and were a well built bass, subsequently I went on the hunt for one and got the one in the photo off e bay, it may even be that one ! its a great little bass especially as it has passive soapbars, I will get it out and put up a shot.
  12. Sold my minty one on the bay when I upgraded to a 1001 mk2, wish I had kept it, in fact I gonna get another one if I ever see one cheap..
  13. So, dont be shy whats the ball park figure ?
  14. +1 from nurguzik, still a newbie member at 3 pm. poss old pm.
  15. [quote name='gareth' post='492729' date='May 19 2009, 09:38 PM']Lovely bass but for some reason G&L's are not that popular here in the UK Why? I don't know. I have a few and with the passive bypass many are great basses. This is why your bass has'nt sold - I beg to suggest[/quote] To my mind, people have a real problem, that is... living with fender and musicman and thats it ! G&L surpass both, sure you can have a pop at the eye gouger headstock, but these are well engineered basses with years of heritage attached to them, any bass and especially the hi end boutique bass have ugly bits, wals arnt that beautiful, except in the eye of the beholder for instance, but these are still leo and georges best kept secret. rant over.
  16. [quote name='Paul Cooke' post='492948' date='May 20 2009, 08:34 AM']not many bass friendly effects patches though...[/quote] Theres amp modelling, chorus, delay, compressor etc, thats been plenty for me, just as a point on the sd memory cards I put a 1 gig in, that has been plenty enough for me to be bored shitless with my own playing.
  17. It has an mp3 mode, you can convert multitrack recordings in it to mp3, put mp3's on it and record directly or via mic in mp3 mode, its a good little tool, lots of drums too.
  18. Nice gig the Brikkies, big music pub.
  19. Cant you put some teeth in it ?
  20. Bump, ive got one, high end spec from leos best.
  21. porn bump, my fave colour/ neck combination...
  22. Nice one TimR another valued point well raised, but I guess its the moog analogue kudos !
  23. Had a set of taurus 1 in the 80's, I took these bad pics last night on a gig, I use midi pedals and a roland expander, does the same job, saves you 800 quid.
  24. Hi, A fairly helpful 3 bolt micro tilt set up guide for G&L, I guess fender / mm wouldnt be a million miles away from this spec.
