  1. Fabulous ! ☺ GLWTS
  2. This is such a cool looking 5 string bass; I keep coming back to look at it even though I've absolutely no need for it. GLWTS
  3. Your last paragraph sums it up really well, Chris. Most venues hire covers bands to entertain the audience so they'll stay in the venue and keep drinking. It's really that simple. The trick I guess is to find a covers band that plays to roughly the same level that you do, where you enjoy the company of your fellow band members, and where the set list follows the 80/20 rule, i.e. you like and enjoy playing about 80% of the set list. Having said that - and putting all reasonableness aside - I will take extreme (and violent measures if necessary 😁) to veto any attempt to cover Jamiroquai- crap tunes by any band I play in.
  4. And a very fine 50s and 60s cover band it is too...😊
  5. I think many of us on here will agree with this Mick; it's something that's very true of myself, that's for sure.. I remember playing some of your very fine basses a year or so ago, when I came over to check out a Trace cab you were selling at the time, and - no disrespect to your other basses - but the VC was head and shoulders above all of them - it was that good!
  6. And you try telling the kids of today that, and they won't believe you! 😁 http://youtu.be/ue7wM0QC5LE
  7. Yep! Mind you, with it being a very hot bank holiday weekend with busy roads, family commitments etc, maybe it was just not so easy to get together even at such a bargain price?
  8. Have a BUMP on me, Chris... This is an absolute bargain!
  9. Have a BUMP on me.. These are seriously good basses!
  10. That's fabulous! ☺ You really do have some amazing vintage gear... GLWTS
  11. Good question, Chris. Anyway, back on topic... Have another BUMP on me and GLWTS!
  12. I used my V4BH last week in the studio, with the matching 115 cab and a Gibson Thunderbird and it sounded absolutely fabulous.. So much so that the studio owner - who was also engineering the session for us - went online to see how much he could buy one for! He was a little crestfallen when he saw the new price for these amps, so I'll let him know about this one when I speak to him tomorrow. GLWTS
  13. I know that feeling, Chris, having less spare money and spare time myself these days... But it's been a blast - some fab gear acquired, then sold.. and in some cases, re-acquired. You couldn't make it up really ! 😁 Proud of? Maybe not, but a lot of fun and some good friends made along the way..
  14. Am really surprised this is still here.. Great cab, bargain price and Chris is an absolute gentleman to deal.. As many on here would agree I'm sure, Chris is so legendary on Basschat for his buying & selling gear exploits that there should be - by rights - at least half a dozen blue plaques bearing his name on various Motorway service station walls up and down the country! 😁 GLWTS
  15. Thanks for your detailed description - I know it's not easy to describe sound and tone. But you did a pretty good job! ☺
  16. That's a really cool looking bass! What does it sound like?
  17. Gorgeous ! GLWTS
  18. Lovely bass! I had one of these back in 1992 for a few years.. Stunning basses - incredibly resonant, deep and rich sounding with so much sustain! GLWTS
  19. Another great bass and a good price too! Have a free BUMP on me ☺
  20. Wow - I'm surprised to see this one up for sale Pat! For those that don't know, these are seriously good 5 string basses, especially if you like passive models, which I do. It does a great P bass, MM bass and even a J bass sound too, and the passive tone control allows you to get a good old-fashioned P bass Motown thump! The B string is excellent btw, being a 35" scale neck. Anyway, GLWTS ☺
  21. Brilliant photos of what looks like a fabulous day! The bar has most definitely been raised with regards to Bass Bash catering... Congrats to all involved !
