Are they good enough to play bass through?

The point of this thread was to point out that a big music business offers matching the price as per their online site. They didn't get back to me when I filled out online price match, this is not the first time. When they did , evetually, after the second request, they said they had sent a link to match price. Three times I emailed them to say that I had not had any link. I gave up and with only few clicks not only I managed to beat the match price but got the item in less than 10 hours and saved more than price match. This is why I opt for Amazon. It's like marmite...

I've realised that £100 is not enough to get a decent quality. Maybe double that would get me better monitors.

I like supporting small businesses but they can't compete with big boys prices and if I can get the item for £20-£50 less I don't think twice where I spent my hard earn money. Unfortunately,lots of small businesses have disappeared over the years. For example I used to find tools in small DIY/ironmongery shops that big name companies don't sell. So now , I opt online. I still buy food in supermarkets. I saved £'s on a laptop that came straight from the manufacturer s warehouse. Don't understand why people are so negative about online shopping. It's fast and convenient. I still prefer talking to a person face to face but I have to think about savings.

This. You get notifications and sometimes the same day delivery.

£1.50 but you get it next day

There are small businesses out there that get paid cash in hand and don't declare tax.

Amazon delivered my latest item under less than 10 hours. I can get on with my day off and always get notify when the parcel is 10 stops away.👍

Nice bass. I' ve got a GAS.

This really is awful. I had an issue previously with them but after a phone call to them they resolved it. All the stories above make me feel guilty using Amazon.

I accept two counts of dissatisfactory service, but it they fail thrird time and are unable to rectify the issue I shop elsewhere. I can't wait days and days being told promises by a high street shop.

If I can get a product with the same day delivery from Amazon , but not getting a resolution in 2 days from a high street shop then I have no choice.

I've had another poor customer service experience from one of the biggest UK guitar stores. Not naming and shaming them, but not the first time they don't stick with their online claims and takes forever to attempt, not actually resolve the issue. I find Amazon cheaper and more reliable with super fast free delivery. Never had issues

Git three good quality headphones.The problems is that headphones are good when I play late evening.

I'm after a pair of budget studio monitors. At the moment I don't have a music room to keep them on studio desk so until then I need something I can store after use. Budget preferably under £100 or around as they may get knocked etc. Not child proof. Beringer Alexis Pre sonus..... Mackie

Voted. Hard one. All four entries brilliant and some damn good mastering. The one that deserved my vote had the same idea as I was going to do.

Depends what you're comparing it to

Sounds alright to me

Is that the geezer from oasis? I don't like oasis

fit in a band Axl Rose in AC/DC

Hahaha I am kicking myself as they had these very short headless basses. Not a fan but they looked goooood. And stringray I wanted to try out.

When I'm at home I jam to drum backing tracks bass or guitar. When was in the the shop I paused for a second thinking. If I try something, what would I play? Total emptiness

been to a music instruments shop and not tried out anything? I went to Camden guitar guitar last night. Spend there about 20 minutes browsing and not even tried a single bass or guitar. I then walked to the Bass Gallery. The shop door was closed but had a notice to press the buzzer. I'd feel uncomfortable being there on my own browsing let alone trying out stuff. So I left.
