Love the teaser intro...

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='353740' date='Dec 13 2008, 05:32 PM']+1 I'm not really too fussed what a bunch of Americans want to do with there money anyway.[/quote]

Neither am I, unless it's GM putting Vauxhall workers on 30% pay for 9 mths.

Suspected TB might take this view - they seem a bit more [i]normal[/i] than us weird, shouty Brits on BC, plus there's all sorts of potential legal ramifications in the Home Of The Brave And The Land Of The Lawyers.

It's a statistical probability. Particularly if, like me, you only ever use G, E and Bb.

Get proper legal advice, either from Geek 99 or wherever he steers you. BC can only take you so far

Don't see how it's a case of pulling out at the last minute, when you didn't know about it till he told you.

He asked if you're available. You aren't.

Rather than say yes to the promoters, his response to them should be "I'll get back to you"

End of problem.

No

Rick forum has (not unsurprisingly) a list of players past, present, famous, otherwise:

And it's cos they sound pumpy and look real purty.

Ha. Ha. HAHAHAHA.[/quote]

As his intended and general honeybunch cutie-pie, you'd know best.

BTW, I've got that on vinyl. It's a double A-side.

[quote name='craigjf1969' post='352679' date='Dec 12 2008, 01:19 PM']dont want any comments on whether or not you like them or whatever else,just interested comments please...cheers Craig[/quote]

OK, I'll keep mum.

Not a word will pass my lips.

Don't have a view. Really.

Silent as the grave.

No, won't say a thing, honest.

Promise. Totally not commenting.

Please accept a opinion-free bump and good luck with your sale.

I note that he's changed the one liner under his picture, the sly dog.

Dibs for the toaster.

Copyright that headstock. It's the most original design I've seen in years.

No seriously! - not just being nice. Do it. Do it now!

I'd buy one of those. No offence intended to whoever you showed it to but - [i]WRONG!!!!!!![/i]

Croikey! What a beaut!

And very tasteful...

...and there's Bandmix...

Stunning work, you guys. This tssr is [i]so[/i] dead.

[quote name='BassMunkee' post='351206' date='Dec 10 2008, 08:47 PM']I'd like a poll on that.

And you haven't said what sort of sheep.[/quote]

A Welsh Mountain Badger Faced Sheep. The almost embarrassingly polite kind.

[quote name='bassmansky' post='351080' date='Dec 10 2008, 06:21 PM']were they any good?didnt seem to last long as a company or were they bought out?must be worth a few bob surely![/quote]

At the time, they were seen as pretty high-end for a British built guitar. Highest profile user was probably Mike Rutherford. Shergold had a long-ish (10 years?) and commercially chequered history - one of the last of the UK-based volume builders. There's at least one Shergold fan site out there...

Some 'enthusiasts' will chase Shergolds to the ends of the earth, others think they're firewood. Prices reflect this...

Just make the holes bigger. Cheaper.

But don't drill.

Have a look at this:

Then nip off down to a DIY store or do the interwebz shopping thing.

I'd lend you mine, but I lost it.

[quote name='The Funk' post='351204' date='Dec 10 2008, 08:45 PM']I'm being facetious but seriously, there aren't that many good bassists here.[/quote]

Not being facetious either , but not many compared to where?

We need a poll.

[quote name='BassMunkee' post='351038' date='Dec 10 2008, 05:31 PM']Can I therefore now please have a sticky poll as whether or not I should have a poll about the fact that I had a big old strop last week; kind of a retrospective poll, if you will.[/quote]

Sorry, but that wasn't a strop.

No offence intended, but compared to some of the stuff that's been flying around here, it was like a sheep clearing its throat on a distant hillside.

PM Waldo. He's well up on this stuff.

[quote name='The Funk' post='350666' date='Dec 10 2008, 01:32 PM']I was born and raised in London, and I've played around a bit. There are probably not more than 50 good bass players here.[/quote]

One less since I left.

And I know - I went round and counted. 48, there were.

Just had a look at this Allen-Baker's 12 posts. Pretty much all about buying / selling.

Maybe checking post content's another indicator, when vetting sellers?

Or find a bass amp with midi (is there one?) and use a pedal board mounted midi controller with presets?

[quote name='King Tut' post='348877' date='Dec 8 2008, 05:56 PM']I bought this. it's original OK, but there were lots of issues that weren't listed on the auction. Weighs a ton but has the most amazing tone. It's with Andy Viccars now for a refret and a little cosmetic magic - I'll post pics when it comes back around christmas time,

Hope you enjoy it lots
