  1. I've currently got a Shure SM58 wired as I play bass and do backing vocals in a covers band but the other band I'm in are singerless and I've 'inherited' the frontman post which requires a bit of moving around! Prepared to pay upto around £200 I guess which will prob get something secondhand, haven't a clue what a half decent one costs
  2. Somehow landed myself on lead vocals in a band and was looking into getting a wireless set up as most gigs are in pokey pubs and cables are getting trodden on and tangled up and is a ball ache in general. Anyone on here got one or had one that they recommend? Cheers
  3. This will be gone by the end of today!!! Great basses, if I had a spare £400 I'd take it.

  5. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1359102632' post='1949784'] No pic so perhaps you could say what colour ? I have one and its very good [/quote] Hi, it's black. Didn't put a colour up as I've been trying to [email="bl@@dy"]bl@@dy[/email] upload some pics!! but photobucket is playing uo so haven't been able to!! They are a very good bass, I love the tone from it.
  6. Moving this on as it was a back up bass that never got used. In overall good condition with the usual scuffs(the worst pictured near the controls) One of the controls is slightly different in appearance as it was missing one when I bought it. Sounds great with Wilko pick up, really beefy bass sound. Gumph below: [b]Vintage EST96 Passive Series[/b][list] [*]Body: Eastern Poplar [*]Neck: Maple – Bolt On [*]Fingerboard: Maple [*]Scale: 34"/864mm [*]Frets: 21 [*]Neck Inlays: Black Dot [*]Tuners: Wilkinson® WJBL175 [*]Bridge: Adjustable [*]Pickups: Wilkinson® Double Coil x 1 WSM4 [*]Hardware: Chrome [*]Controls: 1 x Volume/ 1 x Tone [/list] [b]EST96 Pick Up[/b] The substantial-looking Wilkinson® WSM4 bass guitar pickup offers equally substantial bass sounds. Large diameter polepieces arranged in humcancelling double coil format offer the bassist a meaty range of solid bass tones. I'm based in Leicester for anyone wishing to try before they buy or for collection, cheers
  7. [quote name='barkin' timestamp='1358875489' post='1946413'] Similar-ish story here - I was looking at things at that sort of price point a while back, and after trying several MIM Fenders in a couple of different shops I just couldn't convince myself that I'd be spending my money wisely. Ended up taking a punt on a used Tanglewater Classic J from here (at half the price) which I'm very very pleased with. [/quote] That's what I swapped it for! Lovely sounding bass.
  8. I bought a white P bass from a shop that I shall not name! and it was THE worst bass I've owned. It felt very cheap, factory set up was awful, frets were poor and rough at the ends and overall for £493 it was a bad investment. It didn't come with a fender bag, the shop gave me a cheap shoddy bag when I asked where the Fender bag was that was supposed to come with it. I had it overnight and took it back the next day and exchanged it for a different bass altogether.
  9. Just bought a squier vm precision tb off Tom. Absolutely gorgeous bass, superb comms, lightning fast courier delivery, well packaged. All transactions should be like this top chap, deal with absolute confidence. Cheers Tom
  10. anyone reading this............ IT'S MINE(hopefully)
  11. Bump for a lovely bass. Although I've been after one of these for ages so my fender '62 RI CIJ may have to be put on here to sell so I can grab this!
  12. Sold my Audio Technica wireless kit to Pete, fast payment, great comms, all round good egg! deal with confidence. cheers mate
  13. [quote name='fender73' timestamp='1357735525' post='1927407'] Mine's still available....! (is that naughty to thread hijack) - Apologies if it is :-) [/quote] Is your the same price?
  14. [quote name='BurritoBass' timestamp='1357430408' post='1922699'] I had a black Epiphone bass version back around 2004. Looked the part but really weak sounding pickups. If I owned it now I'd definitely be looking to beef up the sound [/quote] I'd read that about the Epiphone, that's the bass that I was tempted to buy.
  15. Have been toying with getting a Flying V bass for a bit o' fun for a rock covers band and wondered if anyone on here has one or has had one and what their opinions were. There's not many about second hand so that either means that a) they're very good and no one wants to part with them OR they're terrible and that's why there's none about!! Cheers.
  16. it's on the bay!!!! someone grab it while you can!
