Great stuff! I ended up watching all the chicken fights as well. Compulsive viewing!

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1493209128' post='3286494'] I have four different Barefaced cabs and I'm getting worried. How on earth can I come up with a consistent motor vehicle analogy that will neither break down under stress (or on the A312) nor attract The Wrath Of Stevie? Christ! I'd almost rather get into another discussion about The Blessed St. Jeremy with a bunch of [i]Corbynistas [/i]on the Election thread ... [/quote] Honda's have a good track record I believe. The words of the breakdown guy who towed my Citroen back from Wales...

[quote name='sk8' timestamp='1493222268' post='3286686'] AER Amp One. Throws out a huge amount of volume belying its size; enough for a pub gig [/quote] Nearly mentioned that one but I don't think they have a speaker out? They have a line out I think. Besides that, I've never known anyone with an Amp One that needed an extension!

Sold a Mac to Owen. Nice and easy deal. Simples! Thanks again Owen. Cheers Dunc

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1493211501' post='3286539'] Promethean 3110 still available new. And it's a good little amp! [/quote] Ah! it is indeed! Really light little thing that sounds great. I used to have one but bought the P5110c to replace it. Looking back I should have stuck with the 3110. Half as light and half the price!

[quote name='itsmedunc' timestamp='1493167938' post='3286225'] If I'm undestanding this right? Ibanez Promethean P5110c Ibanez Promethean P3110c Redsub BT5110c Harley Benton BA5110c Ashdown Mibass 2.0 combo Sure there's loads more but becoming rarer. [/quote] All of the above have extension speaker sockets. Some run at 250w as a stand alone combo and 500w with their matching extensions (or any other 8ohm extension). The P3110 is 300w stand alone and 300w with the extension (something to do with the windings). All have to be bought secondhand now though.

Well, with a coat of emulsion and a Viking funeral it would probably look ok.

Done

I use an Ashdown Mibass 2.0 1x10 combo. It pushes 400w. We always have PA support and so it's only needed as a monitor. We played on Saturday at a venue that turned out to only have PA tops and no facilities for bass, drums or guitars! We had no choice but to get on with it. The place was packed with around 250 folk. I was more than worried that the bass would be lost. The little bass combo greatly surprised me and did it's job admirably. No problems on stage and absolutely none out front. It was on about half volume. Personally, for me, I don't think there's any need for a huge setup anymore and will stick with the 1x10. Well, until I get Barefaced GAS again!

Sold an iMac to Mike. Easy transaction. Fat payment and good communication. Deal with confidence. Thanks Mike...

I see a post for a number of very cheaply priced basses for sale on here. I wonder if anyone who doesn't believe in making a "profit" has looked to buy one of these? Surely, equity is profit? Personally, I've bought and sold on here. I may have made a grand sum of £25 profit once! 99% of the time I've made a loss. Sometimes huge losses. I never intentionally buy to sell on but circumstances change, especially when you are the only band member willing to buy any equipment needed. I may have sold something for a small profit that I've bought on here but have always added extras such as gigbags (which belonged to me), to the sale, that way at least I can recover some of the postage charges that I've paid. Packaging and time must be worth something too? Another point is, how many folk selling something on here actually get what they are asking? It either has to be cheap or they accept offers by PM. PM's are private and so the rest of BC do not know what the item actually sold for or what the deal actually entailed. This brings me back to the original point of the "very cheaply priced" basses on here. I saw them and did not buy one as in doing so, I would have felt like I was gaining something by somebody else's misfortune. That doesn't change the fact that, the basses belong to somebody else and whatever he wants for them is his business not mine.

Once had a couple of lads buying me pints for no reason in the local pub (a long while ago). Finally one came up and said "Are you Bono"!!! "Ay up am a bloody heck" I replied. Didn't get another pint off them,
