Sean.Robinson

Just gave Jon a cheeky phone call to see how things are coming along and hes just broke it to me that hes lacquering the bass and it should be done in 3 weeks!!!!!.... im a tad excited

[quote name='Veils' post='575194' date='Aug 20 2009, 10:17 AM']I saw that bass in the flesh last week. Has anyone seen the black singlecut it lives next to? All I could say was....WOW![/quote] Yep saw both on saturday, along with both the flip paint and red one hes making for the stock page with some weird cling film paint job. Possibly the worst description of them anyone could come up with but wait till they hit the stock page im saving now

[quote name='SS73' post='551854' date='Jul 26 2009, 04:07 PM']Hmmm, seems things have changed , on the english listing anyway. Can anyone explain how this can happen, has the top bidder retracted his bid, but the underbidder must also do the same to get the bids down this low?, unless as I thought it had been the seller bidding up.[/quote] The bidder has baught mine he got confused between the one on ebay and mine on the V8 site, so emailed me thinking i was the ebay guy. It was all cleared up in the end and he decided to buy mine for £1900 and retracted is bid on ebay. Im guessing the seller has a friend bidding up the auction for it to drop that low as when the guy who bought mine withdrew his bids hence dropping it so low. Thats why i never trust hidden bids :/ Ah well just thought id fill in the blanks, i think the V8 is a great head but to me it isnt worth £1900 hence my withdrawal from the club im afraid

[quote name='Monz' post='550722' date='Jul 24 2009, 11:41 PM']I'm guessing because I can see Huddersfield in your info you must have either decided against Matamp or already own one. Anyway it would be my first choice (and was ) GT200 ... come to daddy [/quote] Hi, ive been down matamp a few times and their stuff is amazing. There a bunch of great guys too and there on the short list, however they have one or two things in the works which im very interested in. Obviously i dont know what they have said to others and so it wouldn't be fair to disclose details, but for the moment it means i am ampless Another head im considering is a Mesa 400+ again though not something ive been able to play yet and they seem to be rather hard to ind at the momment

[quote name='Kev' post='550689' date='Jul 24 2009, 11:05 PM']Don't think 'right, £1400 to spend on an amp...', why not just go round, try out as many amp heads as you can without considering price, and buy the one you like best, be it £500 or £1500 [/quote] Hi, i think its definitely a logic i want to avoid, im basically looking for suggestions really for things to try with the most i can spend being 1400. It has being useful already as with Chris_Bs post as to be honest id forgotten all about Thunderfunk. As i say i am very tempted by a Gallien Krueger however want to get my hands on one first before investing and looking around a new one is only £820, so i aint going to turn my nose up at saving £600. Thanks for bringing that up though and giving me the chance to clarify on it, i dont really like the thought process of i have x amount so im going to try my very best to spend x amount

Hi well pending a certain sale it looks like im going to be in the market for a new amp head. Im not going to spend all of the money on a new amp but i am putting £1400 from the sale aside for a new head. I primarily tend to go for valve amps however im curious to any recommendations for a new head up to 1400 in case there is anything i havn't considered. Something i am particularly interested in is the Gallien-Krueger stuff as ive never being able to try one myself buy when ive heard other doodleing around on them they have sounded brilliant. I would probably be leaning towards the GT2001RB, but has anyone any experience with the new Fusion heads. Also iirc wasnt there a 1000watt fusion advertised on the website at one point as i can no longer seem to find any info on it. So ye, it would be great to hear anyones, opinions, sugestions or reviews on any amp head up to the price ppoint and thanks in advance for any comments

Hi, if you could put me on that list too that would be great, im in the rotherham area Edit; looking at that list i could probably take the cab from sheffield to bradford as i travel between huddersfield and rotherham quite regularly

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='537672' date='Jul 11 2009, 01:22 AM']Jon sent me an email the other day mentioning the Uberhorn, he said it was a bit of an experiment that might make it through to the final line up. I really like the look of it, personally. Although the bottom cutaway could use a little tweak to make the cutaway a tad less deep perhaps.[/quote] Sounds good, i think if i did have the money again to order another bass from Jon id be asking about this shape. I can see what you mean about the lower horn, i quite like but im probably biased by the picture being theyre as is. The whole shape to me seems a bit like a refined ritter and i hope its not just me who sees that otherwise i may look a bit silly.

I dont know if anyone has made a post on this already but has anyone noticed the updated stock page on the Shuker website. Personally the new 'uberhorn' has made me reassess how much i need a car i cant get over it i also hope its a new stock shuker shape To save the time of looking at the site heres the two new beauties; 'Uberhorn' Single Cut
