  1. He probably doesn't want to pay final value fees. They only let certain people have the £1 selling fees offer, it's not for everyone.. but it does sound a very dodgy way to do business. Cant you collect for cash? Even if it was legit, what corners do you think he would cut on packing a bass for shipment.
  2. it worked.... I'm not sure how I overlooked something so simple! Cheers @Reggaebass
  3. Am I the only one who hasn't figured out how to post youTube links? Google and searching the forum hasn't helped. Everyone else seems to be able to post links with a nice preview, but mine just end up as a vanilla link. Seems I've tried everything obvious but nothing works. Using a mac (Mojave and/or Catalina) with Google Chrome browser if that makes a difference.
  4. Guy called BelgaBass - is Bernard Edwards/Louis Johnson/the 1970/80's reincarnated
  5. I figured at £227 - why not? I had the original TR-808 in the 1980's and I've been without an analog drum machine since i sold my TR-606 and Jomox Xbase-09 a couple of years ago. Like you said, cheaper than a lot of bass pedals. I'm weighing up whether to buy their SH101 clone too. Heaven knows where it will fit into my current sound lol
  6. Just picked one of these up from Bax-Music today £227 all in including shipping. Cant wait for it to arrive
  7. There is also a 'Tiny Desk' concert on the tube featuring this which is worth at least one watch - with a full live band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CxvB0d5VF0
  8. you pay VAT on the profit, 20% of the difference between the dealers buy and sell price.
  9. If I was considering releasing anything, I'd spring the extra and get 2-300 vinyl LPs pressed rather than CDs. You'd be better off buying into an ascending format rather than something thats only played by people over 55!
  10. Bought a Fender electro acoustic guitar from them a couple of years ago. No issues, came double boxed, plenty of bubble wrap - arrived on time. Was a very keen price I seem to remember.
  11. My daughter won a Blackstar Artist in a competition. A/B'd for 1/2 an hour with my Blues Jnr to decide it's not 'the sound in my head' (as the adverts say) - so it went on eBay as quickly as it arrived. Saw a Fender Pro Jnr in decent nick on a facebook group earlier today - £250 and a BJ for £300.
  12. My middle daughter (average height, arm length etc) started out at 7 with a 3/4 size Squier Strat. It was the perfect introduction for her. We did spend quite a bit getting it fettled so it stayed in tune. Once she'd had it for a couple of years, was regularly playing & serious about it, she invested her pocket money in a full size USA Strat deluxe plus when she was 9. She plays in a band with other (much older teens) now, and has even taken up bass (now 10 she manages a full size 4h Stingray). She picks up an acoustic now and then, but her tutor teaches her the RGT syllabus for Electric. You need to make it fun for them, find a teacher that your kid can gel with & by the time they are in their mid teens they'll be the coolest kid in the school. If your kid does take up electric, invest in some good ear protection too.
  13. I hear that boxes of peanut dust work wonders, well that's what Chabuddy G did for Kurrupt FM & they never had complaints about noise.
  14. Literally every track he touches, turns to dance floor gold. This is my favourite at the moment
  15. Gene Perez is THE man. I would go so far to say that Masters At Work (Louie Vega and Kenny Dope), would be nothing without his contributions to their millions of hits and remixes.
  16. Congratulations, although you might not have time/energy to play at first! My musical output is 10% of what it was before kids, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
  17. Yeah - what you save on the purchase price you lose on the Osteopath bills!
  18. It does need to get there, in one piece, and you are responsible for its well being on it's journey back.. so you might be wise not to choose the cheapest courier!
  19. Found the MAC version dmg, full unrestricted. I'm not going to post it here, but if you want it PM me.
  20. I'm happy to do the same for the mac version if anyone is interested, pretty sure I still have the download stored somewhere.
  21. If anybody is on Mac, I use a tool called RiffStation - it's specifically designed for this job. Will even do most of the transcription for you (shows you the chord fingering etc). Brilliant bit of software & I think it's free nowadays
  22. Well done to your son! Fantastic achievement!
