  1. The deal was the door receipts would be split between the two bands and they would give us something towards petrol money. In other words, buttons! I don't do it for the money, purely for the fun of gigging (it's a hobby for me). I can only assume the Nottingham band are just trying to build a national following - they were all 50s/60s and have been gigging for decades so I guess they also like the rock and roll life!
  2. I just bought an Orange TB amp from Rick in the time-honoured car park meet, BC style. Super friendly, very easy to deal with and the amp is exactly as described. Very happy 😊
  3. The Pipeline in Brighton last night. Fun but smaller crowd than we would have ideally liked (and I felt for the main act who drove all the way from Nottingham). Guess even a rainy Sunday night doesn't pull out all the goths! Anyhow, my make-or-break test run of Rickenbacker was OK but not as comfortable as my short scale Mustang
  4. I dug out my payment receipts for the Handbox (£855) and Padded custom cover recommended by @wateroftyne (£75), together £930. Plus the DI cable cost £10 ish. So, in response to an offer, I think my price of £750 is fair and firm for a mint amp (and the extras) that's never been outside my house.
  5. If anyone is curious what this amps sounds like, there are a ton of videos from BC's @wateroftyne on his video channel: https://youtube.com/@jollybeggars?si=MbiEsRs5qKhGFp-z
  6. OMG, Nick Cave & Bad Seeds back on form with amazing, anthemic new single Wild God

      I like the song, but I'm not crazy about the mix. Sounds very toppy to my ears, but that may well be a Nick Cave thing. I'm far from an expert as far as he's concerned.

      ….and I’ve only just noticed how long we have to wait for the whole album! August 😬

  7. Sunday! Onstage prob 8/8.30pm

  8. I am going to persevere a bit longer to see if I can cope with the scale length. Might give it a 'make or break' try-out at my goth band's next gig (Sunday 8pm, The Pipeline in Brighton) Withdrawing for now
  9. Well at least we can settle down on a cold, rainy Spring evening and enjoy Book One of his trilogy
  10. Happy to be the first to start a feedback thread for Joshua, who bought an amp off me. All good!
  11. On request, a pic of the dual truss rod nuts (which work fine, I had to slacken them for the TI flats) and the rout for the added neck pickup
  12. Bump. Less keen on selling the whole rig but will do so if it helps seal the deal
  13. Come on folks. Someone please buy this beauty!
  14. Binding to the slab body on a 4003 whereas 4003s is unbound and not slab/more carved, so its more comfy on the forearm and ribs IMHO
  15. Is that a Rickysounds V63 conversion? They look great
  16. If my Ric sells, I will be down (gulp) to one bass for the first time in 10-15 years. This one, my '73 Mustang. 😋
  17. If anyone wants the whole rig I will also throw in the large Auralex Gramma (vibration damping) pad on which its currently sat (seems to cost circa £110 at Thomann, yikes).
  18. Had a request to post some additional detailed pics on the ad. So first off the bridge showing typical elderly Ric tail lift
  19. Would also sell as part of a full, loud AF gig rig with the vgc Barefaced Big Baby 2 cab you see in the pics (comes with padded custom cover). I am after £750 for the Handbox and would do both for £1325 collected, again SW13 London way.

    Nearly 16 years since our last friendly BC deal, wow! Chris bought a cab off me and barely looked a day older, whereas I have become a short-haired Gandalf 🙂
