[quote name='Bassmanc' post='392416' date='Jan 27 2009, 09:18 AM']Nice one Andy - I like your style! What else do you have FOR SALE??? [/quote] I'm going to be posting a budget "For Sale" on an Alembic F-1X preamp. It won't be a freebie... But it will be undeniably cheap. The winning bidder will have the cojones to make an offer of a very reasonable price.

[quote name='steve-soar' post='392233' date='Jan 26 2009, 10:42 PM']I had one back in 1990 and it was a good piece of kit. All the things that GA says have happened to his, happened to mine. Will you take £35 for it? [/quote] NICE ONE STEVE!!! YOU ARE THE WINNER! If you Hilight the first posting my secret message will be revealed! (hence the *game* comments) White text on white background. I just wanted someone who actually wanted this enough to make an offer, and I'll GIVE IT AWAY at the price of postage! Steve, PM your address and I'll send you a price for P&P once I've sent it. I don't imagine it will be much. Nice one mate!

no-one? When I hi-lite the price I expect you might be sorry...

[quote name='Gwilym' post='391298' date='Jan 25 2009, 10:18 PM']all PMs replied to... EDIT: this is now on hold pending payment/collection.[/quote] Dammit! I was holding out, hoping you'd relent and give it away for my £160 offer! Ah well. To the victor the spoils! I'm glad for you that it's sold mate. My loss. Andy

Interest, but no offers yet. I like this game... it requires someone be bold enough to make an actual offer. lol

Hi, I have a very old (possibly 20 years-ish, I estimate) but fully functioning Nady 201 VHF wireless for sale... There are a couple of things wrong with it... One is that it has lost the battery cover for the transmitter bit. The battery doesn't fall out and a bit of tape would secure it further. I used it for about 4 years without the cover and never popped a batt. ...and the wall-wart power supply has the earth pin broken from it. However, it's not as bad as it sounds because it is just a plastic tag and the supply was unearthed to begin with. But I would suggest a new power supply would be the best option. It's an old machine, and does colour the sound a bit, but not enough that you can't kinda E.Q it back. It also gets through batteries pretty quickly. I used two rechargables and swapped them over halfway through the night (after about an hour) But rechargable battery technology has come on since those days so who knows?... A new alkaline batt would probably last about 4-5 hours. Right, thats all the bad news out the way. On the bright side, it works. ...It has a battery in it. ...It will isolate you from electric shocks (since you're not connected) ...and more importantly, I don't want much for it. I would prefer collection from around Sheffield area, or I will have to add the cost of P&P to it... Good luck. Andy [size=1][color="#FFFFFF"]yes I know I ommitted a price. Cos it's free to someone who will actually use it, not just sell it for profit.[/color][/size]

[quote name='Brother Jones' post='390153' date='Jan 24 2009, 01:20 AM']Completely bladdered IMHO. [/quote] lol you're welcome to your opinion, and like my opinion, it is pefectly valid. Apologies to the for hijacking. I'm not sure with hindsight that a for sale thread is the right place for a bit of lighthearted banter about the relative merits of gear.

[quote name='ped' post='390143' date='Jan 24 2009, 12:50 AM']Yes you are right and I plus the millions of people included in your sweeping statement are all wrong, ignorant and not as cool or talented as you :0) ped[/quote] Lol ...mockery! the last refuge of the criminally incorrect. We all know that I'm not being funny. Many thousands of people drive Ford Fiestas. ...Are they as good as Rolls Royce? ...Well no, that would be INSANE. We Both agree on that I'm sure. I make no apologies to the people who bought Line 6. ..but really, you should have saved harder and bought a better piece of gear. Simple as. Ped, I respect you, as a dude, ..but I own both. My humble, easily ignored opinion, that the Aggie is better than any line 6 gear by a magnitude of 10, is not open to debate. It might be different to your opinion. But it's my considered and honest opinion.

[quote name='Kev' post='390138' date='Jan 24 2009, 12:45 AM'][/quote] Not really. I own BOTH. I *know* the difference. It ain't snobbery... really if you try both AB'd... tell me I'm *actually* wrong and I'll bow before you.

[quote name='ped' post='390130' date='Jan 24 2009, 12:33 AM']Really? You are being serious? Are you drunk?! Kind of a sweeping statement I think you will agree. You are entitled to your opinion, of course. But wrong ;0) If your XT sounds like a broken 60's Hiwatt then may I suggest you aren't using it properly! Cheers ped {EDIT - Apologies Wimpy for the off topic discussion, good luck with the sale, I shouldn't think you will have much trouble, lovely bit of kit}[/quote] Lol one of the specific settings on the bass pod pro is a broken speaker... have you even listened to the pre sets in there? Listen dude, I may be drunk, I may not. but the Aggie 680 beats any semi pro line 6 gear into a cocked hat... Nuff said! You can flame on all you like, but I'm right. even the mods on this site aren't immune from being wrong. "9D Broken Speaker" useful? You decide... "8B Sample and Hold" Just because it can, is that a good enough reason to? I'm not convinced "14C Dopplerganger" Tell me ANYONE ever used this?

As far as I know Line 6 users arent a minority, and as such aren't afforded the protection of law which other minorities enjoy; So the way I see it is "Duck Season, Wabbit Season, Duck Season, Wabbit Season, LINE 6 SEASON!!" Stick to your bedrooms, nerds! And don't worry, I make computer games for a living, so I know what nerdism is all about!......

[quote name='ped' post='390123' date='Jan 24 2009, 12:18 AM']Are you saying all line 6 users play in their bedrooms? I hope not![/quote] erm yeah I think I am. I have a Bass pod pro XT and I *think* It's currently in the bedroom. Don't misunderstand... The Line 6 is a great Toy and kind of useful for studio work. But the Aguilar DB680 is a a piece of *real* bass gear. It won't model tha sound like you're using a broken speaker in a 1960's hiwat cab... <ish> and you won't get a plethora of effects, but it does give a great no nonsense sound, which IMO is pure bass tone. Edited to offend Line 6 users less lol. (I was actually lightheartedy mocking bedroom bassists, not Line6 gear)

These don't seem to be everybodies cup of tea... but for me they are second to none. No shitting, if I didn't have 2 already, I'd buy another... I fact I *so* couldn't live without this gear in my rack that I'm *CONSIDERING A THIRD*! They aren't a smooth modelling, forgiving 'disto' sound, ....they are unforgiving and don't offer any distortion or easy playing, so you gotta *really PLAY* ..but they are warm smooth and offer a natural compression for real players, and when you do play accurately the sound is fan-f***ing-tastic!!! WARNING! bedroom bassists, stick to your "Line 6 modelling gear", cos this pre takes no prisoners.

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='388176' date='Jan 22 2009, 07:37 AM']Your car could drive itself to my house by now Andy. [/quote] Hmmmm yeah that's true... or at least was. I have a new car since the end of last week. I reckon it needs to know the route too. You know me mate I *love* the Warwicks! each of them is a thing of beauty, ...it's like art for me. I want them all. Dammit

gah OK ...I have the cash. I just need to fail to resist the urge, again

[quote name='originalfunster' post='379669' date='Jan 13 2009, 08:59 PM']I think he might have been having a little Joke![/quote] Aye you could be right. In which case I apologise. I just figured that if everyone just got on with it it could have happened with no harm done. "Done and done".

[quote name='wesfinn' post='379582' date='Jan 13 2009, 08:07 PM']surely if its all illegal, then everybody could 'club together' to buy the bass so that it would technically be owned by all the people who paid. that would then jsut be a straight sale right? then its up to those people to decide if they want to 'give' the bass to one person and theyre way of doing so is to draw the names out of a hat to make it fair, that way there is no financial profit gained, it's just a bunch of nice people who decided that they would give away theyre share in something.[/quote] EXACTLY my suggestion on page 6
