    Ive recently aquired this from Sean, but it now needs a new home as Christmas is coming! This particular Valenti is a Roscoe Beck alike with the following spec: please check out www.valentibasses.com customer gallery no11 for some pics Alder P style Body Pau Ferro Fretboard Sherwood Green Finish w/Matching H/S Nordstrand Dual Coil pickups 24 Frets, 19mm string spacing Black Hardware HipShot B style bridge UltraLite tuning gears Humbucker/Single coil mode for each pickup Tortoise P/G Aguilar OBP-1 (bass/treble boost only) Passive mode - volume pull pot Contoured heel for easier access to the upper frets A wide range of fender-esque tones are available and it is supremely easy to play. Build quality is second to none, the fit and finish being perfect. There is some very minor buckle rash and a tiny nick in the headstock, other than that it's in great condition. Price wise im looking for £600 collected or £620 delivered anywhere in the u.k. Unfortunatly I cannot acept paypal but any other method of payment is fine. In some of the photos the bass looks slightly blue for some reason, the ones where it looks green are more like how it actually looks. The photos in this thread are probably a truer representation of the colour. Regards Mark
  10. bump for price drop NOW £550 delivered
  11. Allegedly, wooten is far better than the guy from oasis/blink 182 or BUT Who earns more money? lets say per annum the man with the ability to play any style, perform unaccompanied and still sound great, conversent in all styles, solo upon request, play 16th notes with ease,, slap,tap,thump etc,etc,etc has solo albums that the majority of people have never heared of, plays for a group that the majority of people have never heared of, but is regarded among his peers as "the greatest" or A root note player, who has a good image, an endorsement, who plays around the world in a very succesfull band Who is financially better off?
  12. [quote name='EssentialTension' post='989549' date='Oct 15 2010, 06:53 PM']You still seem to be suggesting that it's because they had a connection to Leeds College of Music.[/quote] a coincidence perhaps?
  13. Guys, My op should have read I am very dissapointed in the way SOME musicians from leeds college of music turn up to a function gig, thinking that the gig is beneath them and not bothering to listen too or learn the set. When they struggle to play a simple 12 bar blues, or loose their bearings when soloing over mustang sally it really winds me up. The music is all charted out but still they struggle. Give them the pre dinner jazz and they are fantastic, but a pop gig!!! I just find it a bit insulting, when I put my heart and soul into ANY performance, regardless of the style Sorry for any offence
  14. 1.point taken 2.point taken 3.point taken very well put, doddy is quite right that beer and posting dont make a good combination.
  15. [quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' post='988470' date='Oct 14 2010, 09:47 PM']Ha ha - our keys player is a Leeds graduate!![/quote] Bet he's sh*t then and doesnt know any popular song!!!!
  16. leeds jazz course produces sh*te musicians
  17. please reccomend me some good players from leeds uni ( bass,sax,keys, guitar, etc) I will keep the working all day long, If there are any!!! whom arent too proud to play "pop music" for £150 for a local gig
  18. Bass players to me are really cool and down to earth, and i love them. I often invite bass players into my home (for non sexual purposes) but too sell/buy basses, and i feel totally at ease. A drummer would scare me and also a guitarist. but...... sometimes we all need to find other musicians, or recomend others to dep or otherwise when we are busy I want to start a thread for musicians to reccomend and to avoid (NOT BASSISTS) Name and shame sh*t deps, players and names that are banded around. Name good players who are unreliable, name and shame them...... and name good players so we can all benefit. im gonna start with sh*t players........ anyone who has recently graduated from leed uni "jazz course" Regards Mark
  19. Howdy This last month, ive become aquainted with a very busy and well established, corporate,wedding Northern based function band! The band leader plays the kit, he is nice and solid and got some chops. THe vocalists are great (male and female) but he uses a lot of deps (me now included) The band leader produces full charts for every member of the band(its that organised) But..... The last 3 gigs I have done have contained various guitar/keys players (graduates from leeds uni ) Sorry to say, they are all f***ing awfull!!! some punk keys waller from leeds uni, 4 years into his degree gets lost soloing over "mustang sally" !!!! guitar player "4 years at leeds" has the contempt to not even listen to "celebration by cool and the gang", shows up and cant read the charts, or even remotely play the tune. w***er Leeds coolege of music You are a f***ing discrace, your graduates are a discrace anyone who has a degee from leeds, please burn it!!! Any aspiring musicians out there, Dont go to leeds. Get a well paid job, some occasional lessons from a good guy on basschat, learn loads of tunes, and keep busy Regards Mark
