Marcus

Tell us all about the Enfield then !!

Guys.... for the Alleva Owners out there,

now you've had your bass for a while has the usual "novelty factor" of your new prized posession begun to wear off ?

I'm looking for something wonderful for my 40th and just wondered if the fuss about Jimmy's basses was justified ?

lol..... getting itchy feet err.... I mean fingers !!!

If I had the cash spare..... and wasn't in bass exile

I'd buy it tomorrow !!!

Guys...... the amp is in Very Good Condition (virtually mint) and has not had a hard life in any way !!

Buy with confidence from Chris

When I purchase a new head september time next year..... I'll most likely choose another GK 700 II

I bet Doc's done this more times than anyone on planet earth !!

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='597816' date='Sep 13 2009, 10:49 PM']No Overwater in my sig either [/quote]

[quote name='JPJ' post='586171' date='Aug 31 2009, 11:42 PM']Well it'll be appearing in exactly that format (although probably not full tilt) through my two Golly's at the Star in Newcastle on Friday 11th or at the Turbinia in Newton Aycliffe on Sat 12th September (not a very subtle pimp eh )[/quote]

[quote name='JPJ' post='585465' date='Aug 30 2009, 10:55 PM']Cheers Mark,

Its a beast alright, but I recon it'll last me a long long time.[/quote]

Where do you go from a head like that ?

Total Monster...... i'd love to hear that one full tilt through a pair of Golly III's

[quote name='JPJ' post='585455' date='Aug 30 2009, 10:42 PM']No mate, but I've had a few problems with getting the finish I want which has resulted in two 'sand back to bear wood' episodes on the front. If all goes well, the lacquer will start going on tomorrow and I'll get some more photos up when there is something to show.

BTW, that amp is a bit of a monster![/quote]

I bet that one doesn't have to go to 11

Haway Kev.....

where's the updates ?

[quote name='JPJ' post='585418' date='Aug 30 2009, 09:44 PM']Cheers Andy,

Here's an extract from last night's Newcastle Evening Chronicle - entertainments page----check out Monday night at Saltwell Social Club.

anyone want to guess why I play Bass

[quote name='The Bass Doc' post='557571' date='Aug 1 2009, 08:10 AM']If we all form a line to post our respective wailings about Marcus taking time out, this thread will last till he comes back.....see?[/quote]

ha ha...... Doc amusing as ever !

Thanks Guys......

I'm going to take a year to get fit, I've taken up Tennis in a big way and i'm loving the health benefits.....

Chaps.......

When John collects my Bass & Rig tomorrow I will be without a Bass for the first time in a very long time.....

I've decided to take a year off Bass entirely and come back afresh, i'm simply a bit bored with where I am with the instrument and need a break to get some passion again. I need to re-invent myself as a Bass Player !

I've got my custom bass for my 40th (Sept 2010) in progress now and i'm looking forward to the build process and getting every detail as I want it.

Over the time Basschat (& other incarnations of this site) has been going I have bought and sold a fair amount of gear and met loads of smashing people who I consider friends..... Thanks to everyone on here..... Ped, Kiwi & the Mods especially for keeping this site on the go for us all.

All The Best Guys

Mark
