  1. Have a look at this: [url="http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/b/black_sabbath/juniors_eyes_btab.htm"]http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/b/black_sa...s_eyes_btab.htm[/url] If you haven't seen it before, this website is a good one for tabs. Please remember, that what's posted on there isn't always right, so you still have to use your own ears and judgement. Steve
  2. Sold for £640. Utter bargain. Anyone on here get it?
  3. [quote name='solo4652' post='1298366' date='Jul 9 2011, 05:30 PM']I can't seem to upload the link. Just get onto Ebay and search for "G&L L-1000" and you'll find it.

  5. Try: Folks, I've been watching this, but I've decided I can't justify buying it, given that I've already got a USA L2000. That's what I've just been told, anyway... Looks a real beauty, and no VAT or import duty payable. I'm going to kick myself about this.

  8. [quote name='BigRedX' post='1296963' date='Jul 8 2011, 11:19 AM']For the OP: I'm not really familiar with the other tracks, but on Love Song by Simple Minds the bass is nice and loud in the mix and does pretty much the same thing all the way trough the song. If you can't work this one out by ear then maybe this music thing isn't for you.[/quote] Well, that's not very helpful, is it? In fact, it's bordering on being downright rude. Can't we focus on helping each other, please? If I had tabs, chords, sheet music, whatever, for a song requested by a fellow muso, I'd gladly share it.
  9. Thought I'd sold this, but the deal's not gone through. So it's back up for sale again with new prices: Combo + extension speaker = £550 Combo alone = £325 Extension speaker alone = £250 Steve
  10. [quote name='solo4652' post='1289984' date='Jul 2 2011, 12:09 PM']Just in case the seller does get back to me, can the G&L experts out there offer their opinions on: How does the tone of the L-1000 compare to the L-2000? I generally play the L-2000 on "combined pup" setting, occasionally front pup only setting. What checks would you carry out to satisfy yourself the bass is genuine? What would you be prepared to pay for it? Steve[/quote] Aha! I've just received this email from the seller: "I tried to cancel the auction but ebay wouldn't allow it ...would be nice to speak to a human intead of FAQ's and avatars. Anyway the winning bid has been refunded as I would only sell at a BUY IT NOW price in excess of £1100. Sorry for the confusion but as I said the ebay set up is new to me."
  11. Oh good (for me). No, wait - that's bad (for Gareth). Once the bidding has started and it's allowed to run its course (and providing any reserve has been met), isn't the seller obliged to sell?

  13. I'm absolutely kicking myself about this. I have a USA L2000 and I've been looking for a passive version for ages. The L-1000 would be close to a dream bass for me. I keep telling myself that there must have been something dodgy about the deal/the seller, if it looks too good to be true then it probably is, suspiciously cheap, sombody may well get scammed or ripped-off here (let's hope not), better off out of it, etc. Didn't stop me from emailing the seller to say "If the deal falls through, let me know". *sigh*
  14. Sold for £459!! I'm absolutely amazed. Staggered. I quite thought it would fetch over twice that. What's the story here?
  15. I recently got my Ibanez from somebody who once lived next door to the second cousin of Sting's housekeeper. Allegedly. Therefore it used to be Sting's. Yours for £1000. bargain.
  16. Sounds like you've already virtually recouped your outlay. Just hope the deal goes through OK and the unresponsive seller does actually exist. Let's not go there.
  17. [quote name='BottomE' post='1285225' date='Jun 28 2011, 01:10 PM']haha - i got this for the starting price! Already sourced a US Precision neck and PuPs to install. Good times...[/quote] Nice one! Usual commission rates apply... Steve
  18. [quote name='tom1946' post='1283842' date='Jun 27 2011, 10:54 AM']Haven't got a pic of the rear headstock atm, I'm already £100 under what I paid for it so it won't get any cheaper, sorry. I will take a pic if anyone wants one and is serious about purchase, there's nothing to see though.[/quote] How about a trade with my Ibanez ATK 400?
  19. This chap's looking for a 210TX: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=142309"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=142309[/url]
  20. A just-about-to-go-sailing bump.
  21. See; [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200623279282&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:GB:1123"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...E:B:WNA:GB:1123[/url]
  22. [quote name='smb' post='1282297' date='Jun 25 2011, 05:42 PM']I had one of these...until it got stolen. Amazing bass. Wish I could make you an offer on it, anyway have a free bump[/quote] Much obliged - thank you.
  23. See: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BASS-GUITAR-/280701822085?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item415b21e485"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BASS-GUITAR-/2807018...=item415b21e485[/url]
  24. I got fed up with trying and failing to upload pics via BC. So, see the photos via Picasaweb link (I hope - first time I've tried it). Also, I've widened the trade criteria to include non-fender P's - see original post. Steve
  25. [quote name='andy67' post='1281625' date='Jun 24 2011, 10:59 PM']Amazing instruments and made in Japan as far as I can recall. Bought mine in 2002, exactly same as yours for £400 new. However, back then you could tell these were worth more than the ticket price. £350 aint a terrible amount to ask for. Stunning! I miss mine [/quote] Thanks for the kind comments. I believe that some were made in Japan and then Korea. With the 5-way pup switch you can go from a close P impression (but with a little more treble) through to a very hi-fi sound that some people have likened to a Stingray. Mine's in excellent condition too with only a few minor marks to the back of the body and some discolouration on the back of the neck. Mahogany body too, with some sort of veneer on the top - beautiful finish. I certainly don't mind keeping it if nothing comes up by way of a trade. So, anybody want to do swapsies then? Steve
