Pretty sure once the bug bites she'll want a mike Lull Tbird ;-) specifically to beat the naysayers with post gig ;-)

I see this as a larger issue with the way people are seeing and use ebay , as a marketplace for businesses to have cheap / free web stores rather than private sales and it results in two different types of seller on Ebay. I have different levels of patience with them both, and i can see both sides of this story. [b][i]hypothetical example - names invented for obvious reasons[/i][/b] I'm browsing ebay for a nice jazz ( don't try n flog me a jazz I've got a very nice one thank you) If I buy something on ebay from Mrjones1234 who is selling rather nice 90's fender jazz , its on bids with a respectable , Buy it now price , and a nice discription saying he's selling his old faithful jazz because for his 30th anniversary his wife , friends and loved ones club bed together to buy him a 65 Jazz . I expect to give him all the time in the world to ship my item to me , the postage charges are realistic ( lets say £17 quid shipped in hard case) [b] this is a private sale[/b] , he is using ebay to market his product and he has lots of good feedback most of it as a buyer he cant run straight down to the post office and ship it to me he has a job commitments etc. 2nd case The jazz is being sold buy DEALZMUZAK they have a BIN and a make me an offer the advert is quite obviously a store or professional ebay retailer someone. This is someone who does this for a living or as a real money maker on the side. The listing is obviously one of many they may have multiples available or you can tell from there other items , that they sell lots of stuff and its a money making venture. This kind of seller is running a [b]business[/b] I expect to treat them identically to the way iI would treat buying from any other music store online, The postage and packaging charge they are charging is usually also much higher / not that reasonavle as they are looking to have a cheaper item than all the rest and sideloading profit on the delivery costs.

I'll take the ones cut for a Tbird :-) PM inc

I got my Status of the wall the other day for a good jam , admittedly I've been favoring the T-bird as it works better for the outdoor gigs we have been doing and i'd be heartbroken if the status even got dinged. I've used it previously with great effect and i remember being happy with it I plugged it in and spent an hour trying to find a usable tone and either i'm so inept and incapable of finding a usable sound out of an active bass I've always been a passive guy previously. What i'm very worried has happened is one of the twin active circuit pots is no longer responding there is no tonal difference between fully maxed out and fully zeroed and that the bass bought on here as a gift by my better half will obviously be out of warranty @ status. Im considering taking it to a guitar shop because my knowledge of Electrics is ZERO , but i'd be worried that they wont want to touch it either I've tried brand new batteries ,multiple amps ... it sounds TERRRIBLE through my trace E and slightly less terrible through my practice combo which is even weirder all of my passive stuff sounds fine . Is anyone around here an " active genius " and can offer some help . Synth

Part Exchanged a telecaster for an OLP 5 with Dave , excellent communication and very understanding when I had a bit of a disaster on collection day . Deal in confidence this guy will not let you down .

I notice everyone's missed something from there lists which I consider a bi critical. Some J-cloth / handkerchief / kitchen roll I cant tell you the number of ways having this on stage has saved both gear and pride . I was playing a street party last weekend and it was hotter than hell , punters dancing around beers were flying and we were in a tent on ground level as the best part of a pint of cider went flying over the guitarists prized 1990's tap-dancing FX board 2 songs before the end .... Kitchen roll to the rescue , plus fingers and face get a bit sweaty especially if your putting your all in ,especially on small stages them stage lights are incredibly warm when there about a foot away from your face at the Rat and biscuit.

Ha Ha . before i resprayed it my CAT was exactly that horrible sparkle glitter red ( i think they called it candy apple ) that the Diamond JL pointy is playing in that video ... Now its green ;-) ... still appley honest ;-)

So i'd totally pick it up for 75 quid , i have owned a few of the late 80's early 90's aria's mainly CAT's with the odd SB or TSB and while the body construction is usually a bit artificial , on the lower end model's such as the CAT . The play-ability , quality of tone from the pickups and feel on there necks are usually wonderfu. l i'd be happy to just grab it for the hilarious double P J configuration .

that went stupidly cheap disapointed i didnt grab it to replace my 15 inch GP7

What time sunday i'll pop in an lurk, you could hit the moot house with a plywood Encore bass from my house.

Remember [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]Thomman do a 30 day no quibble returns service sadly its only free inside germany , BUT if you dont get on with the CV you can return it , for probably around 10-15 quid that makes the risk substantially less.[/color][/font]

I wonder if the moot would host a kingston basschat bash there resident sound guy is pretty approachable and we can drag out some of the hermit dad's :-P

Hah its essentially an akai unibass with probbaly miles better tracking for 240 quid ... ouch

As another self confessed big bass playing dude ( 6'4 odd and of Hunnish decent) I find most modern basses a bit on the small side thus i've settled happily on a t bird for live play the same reasons why people find them a little unwieldy ensures however a way of getting that P tone without the P body ( as jazz basses or indeed 51 non contoured ( SLAB) bodied basses are bigger I'd suggest a Scheter model T as there quite a bit bigger than a regulation P'J or what ive got my claws on a Status vintage P ( with a telebass style body)

That call for any questions thing , is pretty common IE my dad who i set up ebay stuff for often sticks this on because uses this rather than logging in , or having some push notification pop through which he's not going to notice the its much less hassle It can also make people feel a bit more secure with the whole ebay purchase ..... if a seller wants to dodge fee's they'll find very quickly that ebay wont put up with it and losing paypal protection for a buyer is not worth the hassle.

A friend of mine from work who is a ultra keen cyclist shared this gem of wisdom from the "rules" ( they have a document these cycle people) The correct number of bikes , or basses in our case is n + 1 , IE the n being the number we currently have plus the one we want. this equation can also be written as N = S -1 , where S is the number that would result in separation from your significant other ;-)

The other day i broke my set of in ears ( at work no music = very crap day ) so I figure get a cheap set to tide me over and order a decent set online [url="http://www.ryman.co.uk/groov-e-metal-buds-stereo-earphones"]http://www.ryman.co....tereo-earphones[/url] There brilliant for the price and made of metal I've not bothered replacing them ;-)
