[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1367081328' post='2061118'] Another one who's still looking great at 60 is Pat Benatar. She can still belt out the songs too. [/quote] Am I thinking of someone else .. I thought she died a couple of years ago ?

Sorry ham fist, I don't mind a white pickup cover but I'd like a standard looking pickup Thanks to the last poster for the plate tip

I have ordered a nitro finished sunburst P from the bass doc. It will have a tinted thin nitro coating on the neck so should relic down nicely over time It will take a month or so to deliver so pics later when Howard has weaved his magic Will look something like this http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=290853428358 I don't have a pickup for it yet - anyone got any kicking about ? Also looking for one of those copper plates that sits under the pickup if anyone has one spare ? Thanks

Only thing I changed was adding a tort plate. Completely chanegd my mind about P basses to the extent that I'm having one built for me.

They are £34.95 on eBay Thanks for your input

I had the white one. A 2006 made in Indonesia and it was awesome. Seymour Duncan pickups as standard

I always do the latter

Anyone tried their p bass pickup ? Opinions ? Looking for a decent p bass pickup for a build. Cosmetic perfection not crucial Thanks

Think also shop is right about accountancy - they charge vat on the sold item but its different when they're buying a used item back or into stock You could try going back and asking them to do you a deal based on an allowance on the bass you bought against another one you try for for a bit and CAN live with. That way they don't lose a sale or a customer

I have a fairly recent law degree, but I'm a but rusty. Correct me where I'm wrong above. I think it may have been different if you'd asked them in person to extend those 14 day terms to you based on your unique issues and the understanding that the item would be kept in as-new condition until you were certain you wanted it. A mini rental, if you will

based on a quick reading , youre talking about the difference between distance selling and shop purchase. Sales in person (the latter) are based upon an ability to examine the goods, ask questions and then accept or reject the offer sell based on that opportunity. You can always walk away from the shop. Some shops will allow you to return goods, but thats just goodwill. The former allows cancellation as you dont get the chance to inspect [b]before [/b]you pay. I [b]believe [/b]that this also applies to purchases based on a phone description as well as electronic purchases from a business as they are similar. You didnt buy a specific item in advance (they had two, and you didnt pay up front) and you did get a chance to try it and to inspect. You made your special requirements known and they seem to have gone [i]some [/i]way towards accommodating you. I dont think you have a legal case, but they should probably help you out based on good will.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1366541639' post='2053661'] I have no complaints whatsoever. It a wonderful forum and very well moderated for the most part. The odd few complainers don't really indicate a trend for me. [/quote] This. It's a model of how an Internet forum should be. The mods should be harder on the 36 hour bumping rule in market place but that's my ONLY criticism. They do a good job and I have learned lots here from the people
