    Well its been a while since i posted on this part of the forum so here's my pair, a Maverick B1 and my recently aquired epiphone thunderbird (cheers Mickeyboro) not quite in the same league as some of the basses posted here recently but hey i like em . the T-bird is gettin a black scratchplate in the next few weeks just to be different [attachment=2024:mypair.jpg]

  6. I'd agree with finn on this one if i had the cash spare i'd have it
  7. [quote name='ARGH' post='48464' date='Aug 21 2007, 06:35 PM']I really thought Gibson Thunderbirds,were going to sound kak,Everyone said they are unstable,blurry sounding...and just 'difficult' to use.. Played a few old and new alike,Genuinely liked all of them.[/quote] +1 I've always liked T-birds
  8. I got me Mick's Thunderbird, what a good bloke very helpful and knows how to pack a bass cheers again Mick
  9. Hey all been doing a lil bit of buying and seling here recently so anyone who's had dealings with me feel free to leave feedback or abuse whatever you feel like R.
  10. I regret selling my old epiphone thunderbird, I loved the sound but it didnt fit musically with my band at the time and my MIM fender jazz in sunburst, black scratchplate and badass II bridge it was the best fender i have ever played and the first bass i had modded in anyway to make it more mine.
  11. Male 28 rock/metal player, I play 4 string basses slung low at the mo, but have dabbled in 5 and 6 string basses. I'm not in a band at the mo but recording some tunes with the aim of getting a band together and get some gigs in, I can play both fingerstyle and with a pick to the same degree but I prefer the tone I get from using a pick. I love playing riffs and doing melodic fills although the song comes first and foremost I only show some skills when there is space. Slap and tapping need work on as I'm cack at both
  12. I find that the more i drink the worse i play generaly but its not always the case. There have been a few gigs when me and the guitarist in my old band had a few to many and played out of our skins , there have been more than a few however where i've been a bit of a shambles at times due to too many beers
  13. [quote name='alexclaber' post='43933' date='Aug 10 2007, 06:54 PM']Well this took me by surprise! Everyone, this is a very nice preamp - someone buy it! I bought it ex-demo from The Bass Centre in 1999 and it's lived in my rack since then. By the way I'm pretty sure both those valves are NOS 5751 not 12AX7 or 12AT7. Good valves though, specially selected by Jack Read, designer of the legendary (and very rare) Read Custom preamp. The original valve is a generic 12AX7. Alex P.S. The VBA400 should rock![/quote] Cheers Alex the VBA400 certainly does rock, although its not mine yet for a few wks I'm in no great hurry to sell this but i'll ebay it start of nxt wk if no takers on here as I cant justify having two amps (although i have to tell the voices i dont need to run a stereo set up ) Someone please grab a bargain
  14. Pablo, Mr (formerly pablocien) 28 years old Scotsman Been playing bass for 4 years after a 6 year break, incurable GAS but fortunately (or not) no funds to cure it, once regular gigger now reduced to travelling back and forth to London to record with fellow like minded individual. Most likely to be spotted frequenting many bars off different class in the search of the perfect pint. . . . . .
  15. I'm pretty sure you can get spares from [url="http://www.rosetti.co.uk/"]http://www.rosetti.co.uk/[/url] they are the epiphone and gibson distributers. mite be worth a look?
  16. Hey folks, I'm doing a wee bit of rig re-juggling as I have just been offered a marshall vba400 for peanuts and its too good an offer to refuse so last in first out means my SWR grand prix pre amp is for sale. I just bought this the other month from our own Alexclaber who had it for a bit. Its in perfect working condition and pretty much perfect cosmetic condition with only a couple of small scratches on the top (it has been in a rack as long as alex had it and never been out my house since i got it) and I have the manual too, the valve has been changed to a nos jan 12at7wc but i'll include the original and a mullard 12ax7 as well. Here's Alex's sales pitch [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1848"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1848[/url] I'm looking for [b]NEW PRICE of[/b] £225 posted in the u.k (cheque or paypal is fine) although i'll knock of some cash if anyone wants to collect it. I can post some pics later when my camera recharges [url="http://www.swrsound.com/support/vintage.php"]http://www.swrsound.com/support/vintage.php[/url] (Info on the pre) [url="http://www.swrsound.com/support/manuals/html/gprixom.php"]http://www.swrsound.com/support/manuals/html/gprixom.php[/url] (online manual) [attachment=1605:Gp1.jpg] [attachment=1606:Gp2.jpg] [attachment=1607:Gp3.jpg] cheers Robbie
  17. I'm only over the water in fife so there's everychance i'll be over at some point
  18. [quote name='Wil' post='36438' date='Jul 24 2007, 04:20 PM']That's me! I bought it off Shockwave, who bought it off Lorne. It's for sale actually, £350 anyone? [/quote] Doh! seing this again has given me serious GAS now if only i had a spare £350 i'd have it
