Looks like it's painted with a mixture of sand, glitter and glue! Sand is pretty heavy!

Just remembered... try another power outlet in a different room. Mine hummed if it was plugged in, in a certain room at home.

A lot of Eden's (valve) have a hum but yours sounds a bit more than that. I've heard a lot of stories of the transformer moving around in transit. I can't find the video but there's one on youtube showing how to reposition one and make the hum much less noticeable. Had a Metro combo for a good number of years and eventually took it to a tech to sort the hum but he said it was normal. Send yours for a service. Great amps.

Why did the other bass player leave? Maybe they should use a backing track bass and then all squabble about how it should sound? i've done many a gig and very rarely had the 'perfect' sound onstage. Who are they? Floyd?

I will be burning a far better example tonight on the log burner. Should anyone want to purchase a bag of such kindling, the price is a snip at £250!

Have you seen this recent thread about 3rd parties and paypal?

Ian bought a P bass from me. Everything went like clockwork. Great guy to deal with. Deal with confidence. Thanks again Ian. Cheers Dunc

Just bought Jon's Roland equipment he had up on here. Great gear, great deal and a great guy to deal with. Everything was as it should be and it's always nice to meet a BC'er in the flesh. Deal with confidence. Thanks Jon and I hope the trains started running on time! Cheers Dunc

I bought an iMac off Gumtree recently at a very good price. So cheap that my messages were brief. The seller became worried too and told me so. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't sold to anyone else. When I explained why I'd been do brief she was fine but there were 2 other folk there when I went to collect. Maybe the buyer didn't communicate to well for many reasons. Plus if he found it wasn't as advertised, he would be covered by paypal? As long as you have all communications and proof of collection. I would think all would be good. But.. there's loads of scams going on. Scams folk like us wouldn't even dream of. I had a thought yesterday when I saw paypals credit options that they offer on ebay sales. No wonder they side with the buyer if in fact paypal have paid for the item. Hope all is good. Only time will tell.

Slick!

I was just about to post that! Toola's band! Think that was not long before Sheep Farming in Barnett?

Just sent a text on iPhone and "oki doki" was changed to "oil Richard" ??? My mate wouldn't have been best pleased! I can write bollocks but not D.I.C.K. What if my name was d.i.c.k?

What happened to your spider senses then?

Not you as well. I've never been the same since watching Harvey... Dunc

When the band can turn up on time, I'll then consider a metronome!

Says it's a copy at the bottom (not clear enough for me though). Always read the full ad on Gumtree!

I bought it secondhand privately. You are welcome to try it but usually logistics make things impossible. I'm taking it to rehearsals on Saturday so will have a better idea about it.

If I knew then what I know now, there would have been a few thrown down the stairs with their gear alongside them!

No, we were young, very naive and very drunk when "poached" him!

Neck dive wise it's ok. There's a bit but nothing bad. Matching guitars, may as well get a gold kit and spandex!
