Even one of my dogs thinks you should buy it type bump.

Great great band

Satellite

My first bass in 1986 was a short scale white Satellite bass. Plywood body, awful sound.

That's what I'm talking about. So bad that my brain had erased the memory until now.

I'm still traumatised from the first time I saw a picture of a Lindert Loco-motive P Bass...

Just when I thought we had a winner that appears. Mad!

I think the Kay Sound Fashion amps deserve a place in this thread. Wretched, wretched things!

Exactly!

I have nothing but praise for Peavey bass amps and combos.[/quote]

I never ever thought I would see that. For me peavey were the worst amps of all time.

Just a bit of fun though.

There's so much cheap stuff that is brilliant nowadays but anybody who was around in the eighties (and earlier obviously) knows what horror show gear was available to try and damp your enthusiam. Here's a few. Have I missed anybody?

Marlin
Hondo
Peavey
Carlsboro

Cheers Silver/ped,

Giblin genius aside, this is a wonderful bass guitar that, at the moment, is just not getting played in my current musical situation.

Had some great trade offers but nothing floating my boat.......yet. Keep firing away! You never know!

Hello from Lewes. Enjoy the forum.

Bloody Hell!

The landlord wasn't Nigel Farage was it?

Wonderful,

Sold

and although my own setup is lightweight these days which I love for many reasons, it was great to feel the air/earth move!

Good stuff.

Just had a look. They can't even spell it correctly so that tells you something. I bought a telecaster online from CC which was a good guitar but had obviously come straight from a smackheads layer into the shop and then to me without any attempt to prepare it for sale i.e. clean it! It was disgusting. Don't let that put you off though, just be aware that they get stuff in and get it out asap. Bargains can be had...

Another great gone

My son's old violin. Now onto a full size one but this did him well. Seem to be pretty old and has some mojo. No makers mark. [attachment=238875:20170223_080320.jpg][attachment=238876:20170223_080328.jpg][attachment=238877:20170223_080359.jpg]
Based near Brighton, collection preferred.

A pic of the great man in action with this bass.

Good call bub. I ended up feeling overexposed to SR at some point but no doubt this is quality.

I'm gassing. Help.

Stunning looking bass
