    If I hadn't just bought a MarkBass combo I would be mightily tempted by this as - in retrospect - my old Walkabout was the nicest, valviest sound I have had with a bass

    Cheers AM! Depending on the precise date of recording I may be sorted here due to my good BC friend and all-round musician silddx

    Would help to let people know where you are based. If you are in US, then UK-based buyers need to add just over 20% for import duties on top of price of bass plus shipping. If you are in EU, then of course there is no import duty

    Thats gorgeous!

    Hi all, the band is planning to spend a day in the studio recording a song that has a very Spanish feel and would benefit from a proper quality Spanish/flamenco guitar (as opposed to the guitarist's normal steel-strung acoustic) Would any London-based BC'er be willing in principle to lend such an instrument for a couple of days? I would do my level best to make sure it is well treated and would sling a nice bottle of hooch in by way of thanks Recording date is not fixed yet as we are waiting on availability of a couple of members but it may well be around 20 July, or early August .... if those don't work out it would be after holidays season in mid/late September. So for now just seeing if anyone would in principle be prepared to help out here :-)

    [quote name='Oldman' timestamp='1340900195' post='1711314'] Clarky this is up your street ,suit your Takamine..................... [/quote] I reckon it would be up my street. Trouble is I have an Acoustic Image combo for my DB, a MarkBass combo and an Acme 2x10 cab .... so it would require a total re-vamp of my rig which I am just too knackered with gear trading to do!

    Rather than start a new FS thread why not answer these good folks questions, seanee? Cracking amp for double bass, by the way. Best of luck with sale

    Another deal with John, this time he bought a GK combo off me. As ever, excellent, straightforward deal

    [quote name='Toasting' timestamp='1340788929' post='1709498'] Thursday 7.30pm at Hammersmith works a treat for me. May the sun shine on you. [/quote] OK, there's a McDonalds next to the exit from the Piccadilly Line. C u outside that at 7.30pm tomorrow but I won't be eating there
  14. Clarky
    Actually I could do about 7.30pm at Hammersmith on Thursday (tomorrow) as flying off Friday at crack of dawn. Let me know which day works best
  15. Clarky
    Although I am indeed heading off to Italy in next couple of days, If you can get to Hammersmith tube station tonight (about 8pm) I could meet you there and lend you back your old combo, Jamie? You would have to hang on to it until some time around middle of next week

    Gerald bought my MarkBass F1. He paid mega-fast and was top class with communications. Recommended

    Low morale?

    [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1340544071' post='1705841'] There seem to be a lot of people on here that seriously object to non-university educated minimum wage underclass scum such as myself being on the forum. [/quote] I hope that was a joke

    [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1340480986' post='1705178'] Hmmm, the band have asked that I play double bass only going forward. This potentially changes matters as regards my Takamine B10 which may just have become redundant. Need to re-think so the Rob Allen is on hold for now. [/quote] If I am only gigging DB from now on with the band, my logic for selling the Rob Allen over the Takamine flies out the window. Don't want to make a silly mistake here (given how hard it is to get hold of a Rob Allen this side of the pond and how nice it is to play) so I am withdrawing this from sale.

    Low morale?

    Clarky replied to Kiwi's topic in Site News

    I periodically unsubscribe to OT and I think its about time I did so again. That said, I don't think there's any more of a morale issue now than there was 1-2 years ago, say. Every so often someone feels motivated to post up something that is just guaranteed to be contentious and it just so happens this tends to go in batches but thats always been the case IMHO. The general economic climate is obviously not conducive to partaying day and night and that probably colours things.

    [quote name='Peaty' timestamp='1340366912' post='1703394'] Went to a choir festival to see my kids sing this week. The base player in the accompanying band was playing one of these and it sounded great. [/quote] Cheers! Sunday morning bump

    Those red suede and leopard print brothel creepers you were wearing last night just have to be seen on stage, Sean!

    Looking to sell my MarkBass F1 head as I have picked up a CMD121P combo. I bought it off top dude BC'er Gareth Hughes in February (I think) and - bar a few minor cosmetic scratches on top (perhaps from having a preamp sat on it?) its in excellent condition. I have subsequently acquired a Markbass padded gigbag for it (from Thomann; here's a BC thread with another F1 pictured in the same model of gigbag [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/168468-markbass-f1/page__p__1554859__hl__markbass%20f1__fromsearch__1#entry1554859"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1554859[/url]). In total the amp plus gigbag cost me about £490 inc post and I will sell for £450 all-in (ie, amp + gigbag + post within UK).
