[quote name='Panamonte' timestamp='1322390513' post='1450118'] I bought a T-bird off farmer61 (cheers mate - sweet deal) a couple of weeks ago and gigged it for the first time last night - what a great experience! [/quote] Here's the very same bass in action (probably only one string mind you)

[quote name='Mace' timestamp='1322258925' post='1448811'] We're not quite swing but might fit the bill, check us out - www.therinkydinks.com [/quote] I know you guys....two words Fraser Tilley.....!!! Would you be willing to travel to Shropshire..?

[quote name='observer' timestamp='1322230616' post='1448306'] Friends of mine The Bossa Quartet, not to far away from Shropshire, she can see them live next sat. in Halkyn, North Wales [url="https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Bossa-Quartet/256879970993711"]https://www.facebook...256879970993711[/url] [/quote] Thx

My friend at work is getting married in May 2012 and is looking for a 'quality' Swing band for her wedding. If you can supply disco choons aswell (as in DJ type stuff) while not playing that would be excellent. Friday 4th May in Shropshire.......('may the 4th be with you' and all that) I'll be there so it would count as a BC meet aswell. Please pm if seriously interested or know of any suitable bands. Thx Ju

Me too, I tried and tried but ended up going back to a four and will never stray over to a five again!!

Playing and singing Truely, Madly Deeply as a first dance at a wedding........painful for all involved.....!

Can I suggest that you take this reputation marking system off of the For Sale section, in the same way there should be not 3rd party negative comments about items for sale, just wonder whether this system could wrongly predudice sale items?

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1316546230' post='1379554'] Whatever WOT, you should be very proud you are considered high enough standard to be asked. Well done fella and enjoy. Karl. [/quote] My thoughts exactly!

First one for a while. A parcel from Germany arrived today containing one of these ; A Matt Freeman Squier Precision. On first inspection it looks superb although think it may need a bit of a setup, should be able to sort this myself. Looking forward to a restring and a first outing tomorrow...!

I'm being stalked by Torquil........ After a couple of queries over email Torquil bought my (his now) Sunburst Gibson T-Bird. The cash was in my account quicker than I could log in. This is our second deal, both were how deals on here should be. Friendly and simple. I'm not going to post any furture kit sales on Basschat, I'm just going to email him directly , cuts out the hassle. Have no fear dealing with Torquil at all, he's a top guy.....!

Just ordered a Matt Freeman P in all of it's black loveliness.

Ok scheduled to be 45 with 4 cancellations and 4 with another band. One of our regular venues fell foul of noise regulations. Pubs are definately quieter and I reckon we've played 5 or 6 gigs where there's no way they've made money from the evening. I suspect next year will be not as good though. Worrying times methinks

Sad times, had a limited amount of dealing with them and they were great with me. Best wishes to you all!
