Total Watts

  1. So tempted but basses lying all over. I have a uv70 Japan metro Incredible sound ,heavy though
  2. Cheap basses are way better than when I started in 1979 Pre Squier etc Only catalogue kay basses etc If you got the right bass in the 80s it's value has risen but it's not across the board . If I was skint I'd happily buy a £250 bass .
  3. Sad news indeed He was a big part of Kates work once she started to find independence in her music making Some great work on The Dreaming onwards and as much as I loved the big name cameo bass guests he did what was left brilliantly
  4. Agree , there's a point you make some effort for an interested buyer . I'd be reluctant to pull a vintage bass apart for a maybe buyer . They guy sounds like he knows enough to value the bass but not keen on taking it apart . Many aren't . He's encouraged a physical try out so sounds genuine.
  5. Dirty sound Magnet Amazing rock,prog,improv,space, power trio from Switzerland £13 a ticket, took a chance, never heard of them Wow . S..T 🔥 HOT Check YouTube
  6. Took to lenses straight away in the 80s I'm that age now where lenses are no good close up so gigs fine apart from setting up leads and pedals etc in the dark . I wear glasses 70% of the time now as they are varifocal
  7. I bottled out when Derek Forbes ex Simple Minds was selling his Wal on ebay .It went for £4500,about 7-8 years ago i should have gambled
  8. love my cij Geddy Strangely didnt bond with my usa one at all
  9. Do we think the Wal price explosion has settled now ? bassbros and andys have stuff around 8k You have to be buying at that price for investment i'd say ,but will it rise ?
  10. manic but you have to take time to connect to people 😃
  11. You get baseball caps with pics of fish on just thought i'd mention 😄
  12. i think thats a great offer ,i sold a mid90s cij 62 P private for £495 about 4 years ago ,same as i bought if for . If they sell for £800 the vat is in there and its complicated on used items ,perhaps £100 of the sale is vat ?
  13. I'd say the majority of private sales are overpriced with a story to match it gets a bit tiring "anyone looking will know how good these are " "rare" " sought after " . etc etc If someone really wants the bass you may get that high price but if i'm selling,i want it gone at a fair price
  14. A name from the days of listening while reading sleeve notes i started playing in 79,with a pick ,strangling a little amp to punk songs i can remember hearing Breathing and not having a clue what i was actually listening to .A great steep learning curve followed Great great player
  15. I had a gorgeous Euro4lx spector I'd say it tipped the Sadowsky on the E's bottom end but the the G and D didn't cut the mix half as well
