Welcome back Bado.

Welcome Joe.

Tina started it -

Welcome back Steve.

I like a nice bit of Sapele. Those bodies are looking good.

Welcome Buggler.

That one touch of "bling" is tasteful. I find the use of gold, faux or genuine, to be vulgar when it is applied liberally. Where it is used to display the owner's wealth (one example being the current resident of a big white house) it is beyond vulgar and well in to perverse territory. You now have a great looking bass. That's a respectful modification. Thanks for sharing.

I see no spam. There's no need to apologise. You are bang on topic with those links. Thanks.

I'm glad you have Andertons on your side.

Welcome Z.

Some time back I put a post up in the wanted section asking for an eighteen inch cab. Almost immediately a kind member contacted me about a TE 1818 and we made a deal. The courier gave me an icy look after he'd hauled it out of his wagon. I wouldn't like to gig it without a roadie but as a home fixture it works. It is now an extension cab to my Ashdown Toneman 300 combo (15 in driver). It's impractical, perhaps even overkill, but it makes me smile a LOT. I wonder how an Elf would sound driving it? Just a thought.

Maybe not gigged but I am curious about the amount of crap that is visible on the cooling fan blades. Is that a hint of rust there too?

That description is inappropriate for four days but for seven? Who are they trying to kid? Do they offer a non - "Expedited" delivery and at what cost?

If you've not formally agreed and signed off on returning it, I'd consider that a win.

Are we really as scary as that?

Is EB still wanting the old bridge back?

I'm only bumping this thread to change the avatar from the dancing duck to something static. Sorry Funkgod. I think your duck needs a rest and a long bath. Poor critter. It must be looking forward to soaking its feet and getting rid of duck smegma from all its little nooks and crannies.. Oh! ...and no offence intended but - (Heeheehee)

This makes me wish I hadn't stopped collecting issues of Practical Wireless back in the day. When puberty struck I became interested more in 'bikes, romance and Rock & Roll - in that precise order. You've made an excellent thread even better by having all those images in your last post but one. With the commentary already covered in earlier posts your photos speak for themselves. I like that you are tempted to gig it already, yet cautious enough to break it in during rehearsals. May it serve you well brother.

GLWTS. I think I know which one you're definitely keeping from our chat early in the year...

None needed chap. Boffins gotta boff.

I'm wondering if you'd like your big rack* back? *[Stifled chortle]

Sorry Rob. That wasn't me. I'd help if I could. I haven't been to a SW Bash (yet). Nor do I use a smart "'phone". Perhaps you could find said member on the SW Bash thread by re-posting there? Good hunting.

Granted. I'm just saying it's not a major issue.

It allows the reader to savour the content. Like a good wine, posts should have room to breathe. The edited by line is in bold type and draws the eye away from the content by being too close. Heeheehee. It's a minor annoyance. It's easy enough to add extra space at the time of posting.

I usually do that too. Good call.
