  1. Well, if I pass Wednesday's audition, I will be a member of " Lady & the tramps" covers band doing stuff by Bonnie Raitte, Samantha Fish, Kelly Clarkson, Sheryl Crow etc. If I don't get it, I'll still be a member of Dereham indoor bowls club which is not really a band as it's a bowls club.
  2. Just a stab in the dark but is there a possibility that the name of band 3, and the term "no gigs" are connected in any way?
  3. That's nice. Got a real F bass vibe going on. Cool.
  4. Ah, so you've joined the club Pat. You won't be disappointed. I'll expect to hear it at the next Blues meet.
  5. Peavey 300 1x15 combo Trace 300 head (the heavy rubber cased one with the fluo tube) two 4x10 trace cabs. Trace 150w 4x10 combo Trace GP7 300w head + TE 2x10 and 1x15 cabs Eden CX 2x12 300w combo Eden WT500 and Eden 4x10 Mark bass 3x10 combo EBS session combo Genz Benz shuttle 310 combo +ext cab Genz Benz shuttle 6 combo + ext cab Mark bass LM2 + Aguilar GS 4x10 just got the Shuttle 6 rig and the little EBS now
  6. It'll turn out like Starwars. They'll get to Vintage MK4, then bring out The Fender Original Vintage series, and then the Vintage Original series. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
  7. Here's mine. Elwood 5a Got it as a PX when I sold my Elite Jazz 5 I know you've heard it all before but this really has turned out to be everything I've been searching for in a bass. A sort of mixture of all the good attributes of all the other basses I've had in the past.
  8. Okay, final attempt before they go in the shed forever. Pair of EV SX 200s. 300w 8 Ohm tops. Also double as great floor monitors. In out Speakons, all working. Inc 2 cables I've had a look on Ebay and can't find any under £275. No, they don't have covers. Yes, they're scratched. Yes, they're gigged. Yes, the little EV badges have fallen off however, they sound fabulous and are basically unbreakeable. Absolutely perfect for pub rock or a rehearsal space. Quality sound for not a lot of money. Pick up only I'm afraid unless you want to do all the arranging of couriers etc at your risk. Price drop. Now £275 for the pair. But now includes a Yamaha 400w powered EMX 212s mixer (200+200 both with graphic) Sounds brilliant with these tops. Plenty loud enough for rock vocals in pubs/clubs etc. So, apart from a pair of stands, a great sounding pub PA for £275
  9. Two leather bass/guitar straps. Both about 70mm wide. Plenty of adjustment length. Price is for the pair. Loads of life left. Happy to post, about £3 I reckon.
  10. Yup, they are nice. Had two 6ers but the dreaded arthritis put a stop to those.
  11. Sorry, just agreed a sale and packing it up now but for future reference if your after one, this was 18.5 centre to centre. Thanks for the enquiry though.
  12. Now that's how I like to remember the 70s. Proper rock n roll.👍
  13. No problem. As you say, inevitable however, you've gone right up in my estimation as you had the decency to wait 13 hours😂
  14. Yeah, why not? Other hobbies are good. Especially when they don't involve singers, low-life pubs, egos, 1am breakdown and load-ups, unadvertised gigs, unreliable band members, overloud guitarists and drummers, drunks and Hey Joe😉
  15. Will obviously supply more pics if any interest. Metal detector sorted so now looking to sell. I've got enough bass guitars for someone who's not in a band so, as I've got into metal detecting and fancy an upgrade, there just might be one of you that has a pro level detector you're not using and fancy a well used, but nice classic Energy 5 string that weighs just around the 8lbs mark. No case but could chuck in a cheap gigbag. The dot markers are real, not stick-ons. Seen some fair usage but great for what I imagine is a 30 year old bass. Super light for a five string, very comfey to wear and play. All pots work, has a new battery compartment. Welcome to come, play, twiddle and decide. Quality biscuit provided with exceptional cup of accompanying coffee. Newly strung with I can't remember strings that were a new spare set I got with another bass. Think they're 40-125s Never appears to go out of tune.
  16. Okay, sorry it's not a bass we're talking about but does anyone know what's going on with Epiphone/Gibson tone pots? Brother has an Epi Les Paul and an Epi 335. I have a 335 and it seems that 90% of the tone rolls off in the last 15% of the pot movement. Is this normal? Any ideas? All three guitars have quality CTS pots.
  17. As per title, set of 5 black bridge pieces. Think I got these from Northwest, cost about £30 with the postage. £16.00 collected, guessing about £3 extra to post. Fitted close together gives you 17mm spacing. Everything works and turns as it should.
  18. Well how bout that. Sent a pedal from our local post office, parcel of just under 1kg, 2nd class, cheapest option, two days ago on the 19th. It arrived today I'm told.
  19. Rich bought a Zoom effects pedal from me. As usual, super efficient BCer. Paid immediately, great Comms. Really nice guy to boot.
  20. Bought a case from Russ. Very easy to deal with. Great Comms. Pleasure to do business with. Good deal too. Thanks.
  21. Hi S'manth, Yes, 34" scale. Width at nut 42mm, string spacing at nut 11mm, width of 24th fret 60mm string spacing at bridge nearer 19mm than 20mm.
  22. As title, in the discontinued aqua marine. Got a few scratches but nothing major, no chunks of paint missing. Stagg badge missing on headstock and little cover missing from rear of one tuner. See pics. Light as a feather at 6lbs 8oz so great for a young'un or for a noodler to just leave in the corner. Ideal as a first bass without major financial commitment. Neck is really nice, frets all good, no digs in fingerboard, P/J config with Vol vol Tone. Bass is passive and currently strung with Roto black nylons which look really cool and gentle on those little fingers. However, they're not everyone's cup of tea so will include a used, but good, set of rounds. Action is nice, has a smooth and working truss rod and no scratchy pots or jack socket. Neck has been lemon oiled. Holds tuning nicely. really comfy to play, sounds nice. These are around the £225 mark new so, at £75, (or exceptionally near offer) grab an Xmas bargain for the son or daughter future Marcus or Tal. I'll even throw in a strap. Ideally pick up from PE37 but can probably find a box and bubble wrap to send at your expense if required. Guessing about £9 or £10 unless you know someone cheaper. Welcome to come and try it out whenever suits you but not too close to Xmas. Free tea or quality coffee but biscuits £1 each.
