Hi Pawel, Welcome to Basschat - glad to see you made it! You'll find this a great place to get help and support with bass related stuff, from like minded people.. The only downside is that once you start looking in the various For Sale forums, you may never find inner-peace and contentment with your gear again!! Nik

Wow.. Sad news as you say, but what a legacy! RIP

[quote name='scrumpymike' timestamp='1476743720' post='3156955'] Thanks for the crash course in MK - very much appreciated. [/quote] +1 Really enjoyed this thread and it's completely opened up my eyes (or is that ears) to how creative a bassist MK was.

I love it, and would play more than I get to these days if I could.

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1475143367' post='3143341'] Black Rickenbacker 4001. [/quote] +1 That was my dream bass back in 1977...

[quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1476188417' post='3152075'] Quite, but if you got ripped off / had a really bad experience with a sale / purchase, wouldn't it have been nice to be aware of any potential risks before entering into it? It'd be no good if you posted about your displeasure afterwards and then 10 members reply saying yeah, I had the same problem with him / her. Feedback makes up a part of what we call the Basschat community doesn't it? [/quote] +1 Thats my view exactly ; what's the point of having this bass community if we don't share our experiences for the benefit of others?

[quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1476097758' post='3151157'] Nope, its kept at the workshop for YOU to try out... Listen to my voice... you are feeling sleepy... you are feeling sleepy... you want to buy a Mk3... you want to buy a Mk 3... [/quote] Excellent

I've noticed this lately too.. I always try to remember to leave feedback, but don't worry too much if it's not reciprocated when I do - who knows what people have got going on in their lives at any particular time? Having said that, I think the idea of everyone having a feedback thread is an important aspect of what makes buying /selling on here work so well. Especially now there are so many Basschat members compared to the early days of the Forum.

[quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1475907689' post='3149619'] Workshop model so currently available... you know you want to... [/quote]

[quote name='Booooooom' timestamp='1475832798' post='3149028'] Interesting listen Nick with very little reference to modern rock/pop (I don't recall a bass guitar being mentioned). It concentrates on the physics of sound and importance of the bass part in the development of music. This, however, may describe my playing better...😉 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/5C7VQGPHs31YJPPYfLP3X81/when-does-noise-become-music [/quote] Thanks.. The Noise article is really interesting too. Listened to the podcast in the end and really enjoyed it. As you say, the section on the physics of sound was quite amazing. There's clearly a lot more to the role of the bass in music than I ever thought!

[quote name='josie' timestamp='1475829722' post='3148984'] http://basschat.co.uk/topic/292421-why-is-music-addicted-to-bass/ [/quote] Thanks..

Just wondering if anyone has seen/heard this yet before I put aside some time to listen to it? http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07vwg5w The first 30 seconds or sound promising, but I always worry when journalists who are supposed to be informing and/or educating us use a generic term like 'Rock' and then play a disco song, in this case 'Another One Bites The Dust'.

[quote name='barneyg42' timestamp='1475733804' post='3148254'] Sold my old Status a few days afterwards and won a case of old leads!!! [/quote] So, there were definitely some successes from the For Sale table then..

[quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1475705329' post='3148189'] [size=6]I sold my wireless, and gave my case of leads to the raffle. [/size] [/quote] Cool

Great work Silvia!! Thanks for putting all of that together - it reads really well and the photos and videos bring it to life.. Not sure how much stuff sold in the end Mick, though I did manage to sell my Trace AH300 on the day, which completely surprised me. Nik

Just bought an Eden amp from Geoff and can only echo the comments in the previous 2 posts.. Very friendly to deal with, super fast delivery, great packaging, and of course, a brilliant sounding amp! So I'm more than happy.. Many thanks Geoff!
