  1. I bought a lovely Retrovibe 'tribute to a well known brand' from Paul at the weekend. Easy transaction followed by a Basschat classic supermarket carpark exchange! Really nice guy to talk to and a lovely bass to boot. Exactly what buying & selling via the forum should be like 👍
  2. Very nice - I've got it's virtual identical twin, albeit slightly higher mileage... fantastic instrument! Someone is getting a bargain.
  3. I got one secondhand last year - it's all I need for the gigs I do, and very manageable to boot.
  4. If this had been a year ago I'd have snapped these all up in a heartbeat! But typically, when I was looking for an RH750 - with footswitch - they just didn't seem to be about, and of course more recently I've seen a couple up for grabs. I ended up going a different way in the end, but someone is going to get a bargain here! GLWTS
  5. Finished a pub gig with a heavy rock type band - landlord has rung the bell and is trying to get people to drink up. It's at that moment a drunk older couple asked (and asked, and asked with increasing mouth foam) to hear My Way, as if that's likely. Bearing in mind that we've switched everything off and started taking stuff out to the van etc. it's a weary but firm 'no' from whoever happens to be their focus at that moment. They persist however until another punter wanders up and tells them to p*ss off, to which they don't take kindly, and before you know it proper fisticuffs are going down, ending with the landlord throwing all three of them out and barring them. We just loaded up fast, got paid and got out of there... still got asked to go back (but didn't)!
  6. I've got too much TE stuff already too - but that doesn't mean I don't have an irrational want for this! GLWTS
  7. Such a shame you're quite far away... I'm sure someone will take this though. GLWTS!
  8. No - it's gone... nothing in the wayback machine either. Curious
  9. Apologies if this is old news, but I just happened across this... https://www.fender.com/en-US/electric-basses/precision-bass/aerodyne-special-precision-bass/0252402376.html I think it's kind of cool... sadly though it appears to be US only, at least right now
  10. Following - I think you might have hit upon what is missing from Fender's design (especially the neck/headstock) with your plan...
  11. It's funny really, I got hold of those cabs and that head just as I (re)started gigging after a very long layoff, and although I've tried quite a few different things over the subsequent years on the quest for 'something', I have always returned to them as they are just right for what I need... They make a sound I like, always have enough heft and are manageable enough to cart around to gigs and practices etc. I can't think of anything I'd replace my TE head with either, and it does fit nicely on top of the cabs - it might be 2cm wider than an Ashdown MAG, but it doesn't look wrong at all.
