  1. The guitar one was the best in my humble opinion, and the bass one the weakest but they all taught me something I didn't know and exposed or rexposed me to stuff I didn't know or had forgotten about, and makes a change from Mrs Browns boys and all the other shiiiite on the box that most people seem to think of as entertainment now back to youtube for some music
  2. Marcoelwray on here is a affiliated dealer I believe
  3. Got a white Squier P bass body in basswood in good condition that I'll be selling soon, 2015 ICS build Chris Aiken 😉
  4. Take a trip to the Bass Centre and try a bunch of basses out there's a great range of new and preloved to try, would be aday well spent I'd think. Bass Gallery too I guess. Good luck with the search
  5. Mine says expected 15th February
  6. I have these on my Jake and on my Jazz, I really like them but I am a learner. I tried TIs on another bass and I prefer the Maruszczyks as less fret clang than the TIs but that could be because the other bass is active and could be amplifying it and my technique is improving but the TIs are brighter I think; if you are passing call in and try them. Good value too. Supposed to be made in Europe but by who I don't know and the internet doesn't seem to know either
  7. How did you get on with the insurance, were the instruments covered ?
  8. Sold on Ebay for £170 inc shipping
  9. plugging in makes the active electronics live same with pedals as they use a three pin socket and route the electrics earth connection through the plug so always unplug when not using; also saves from accidental damage if cable gets pulled/tripped over etc..
  10. not all VM are equal, is yours a ICS or IC serial number ? naughty boy not doing the washing up when cooked for, you won't get invited to tea again
  11. 1. jebroad 2. Len_Derby 3. Jabba_the_gut 4. Spondonbassed - Hohner B2A 5. Andyjr1515 6. Jimothey 7. Mojo 8. Owen 9. Teebs 10. Josie 11. Aidan63 bassbash virgin will bring Jake4L, UbassSub, Fretless TanglewoodUkeBass, PJB double4 and MIM Jazz modified as I'd like to hear them played by good players and hear what they can sound like in competent hands
  12. My 20114 VM77 had a nice body and the pickup rout for the neck pickup wasn't too much oversize, better than a MIM which has a big fixture hole and cable rout hope the tea was nice and once you've done the washing up get the screwdriver out
  13. Now on Ebay £50 start price, one bid, ends next Sunday
  14. Seriously tempted to buy this and swap the pickups and passive controls into my Jake 4LA, especially as I got a rebate on my pension charges this week; but I should pay the tax-man and buy stock for the business really GLWTS
  15. Confirmed for BBC Four on 18 January at 9pm to 10pm
  16. Pulled as no longer available then relisted again https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/312422909660?_trksid=p2471758.m4704 and already bid up from 99p to £255 in less than one day, something very wrong going on - though the bidders all appear to be different to when it made £375 but sale wasn't completed this sort of thing makes Ebay look stupid, surely they realise that
  17. YouTube suggested this Delvon Lamarr Trio vid to me recently, I loved it https://youtu.be/jhicDUgXyNg
  18. Hi,

    just wondering how the like buttons work as I see that people can't like or otherwise react to my posts,

    regards

      Hi Aidan - they can react to yours like you do to theirs, it's just that you can't react to your own, so you can't see the boxes on your own posts. Hope that helps!

      thanks for this, it was just I could see those that had had reactions on but not the symbol on those which hadn't been, not difficult to understand really

  20. Does the retailer buy the product from the distributor or does the retailer pay for it once sold (like M&S and other big retailers do), I don't know how it works with the instrument business, but I guess that PMT and Andertons etc. pay distributors 30-90 days in arrears and small retailers pay up front or on delivery/on invoice from supplier If you've had £500 capital tied up in something for 18 months and new stock will be more expensive and everyone else is selling for £650 then I can understand why you'd up the price as long as it was indistinguishable from current model, which is partly why manufacturers keep changing specs and available models so if you want the latest version you pay more and so old stock is apparent to knowledgeable buyers
  21. shouldn't work in sales if you don't love the product and be prepared to put a bit of effort in to get the sale or even just help the potential customer as good service is recognised, bit like karma; can always Google P100 and ask a colleague imho
  22. For the original £15k I'd want Victor Wooten to provide a couple of Basscamps with flights included in the price as well
