I see! I thought the dismissal of the two cab manufacturers was due to tone and they are very different, hence my curiosity. Again I'm not pushing/pimping the DBs but I don't find that they have such a mid bump (with my amp flat) at least not as much mid as others cabs I've tried with my amp (Schroeder cabs and Bergantino 10's spring to mind as being more mid biased than Aggie DBs) but neither would I say the DBs are uncoloured, so agree they may not suit you. Best of luck finding what you want.

Just out of interest why those particular 4 and not the BF or Aggie? I could understand if the BF and Aggie had a similar sound which you dislike but they are absolutely poles apart in terms of tone and the Aggies aren't a million miles apart from some of the cabs you've shortlisted! Each to his own and I'm not plugging the Aggies in any way, I know that they won't suit everybody, but I am interested in the 'why' of your shortlist.

Cheers people, all helpful.

Hang on! Members and Moderators alike seem to think that links to eBay auctions should be in the 'ebay' section of the forum and in fact one has just been moved!

[quote name='Hamster' post='1098486' date='Jan 22 2011, 11:27 AM']Word [/quote] Having reread the thread in the 'Site Forum' re. eBay links I'm now MORE confused than ever! It would appear that the OP was correct in posting his basses in the for sale section as there is clarification that the eBay section is now NOT for the advertisement of members items on eBay but is in fact; "... for the discussion of Ebay auctions. Please do not promote your own auctions. If you have something to sell, please use the For Sale forums."!

I've been promoting my new band via my personal Facebook account but it isn't ideal due to work regulations (it is 'recommended' that if staff do use FB then it is used with maximum security and limited to friends viewing info and photos, not worth debating as I can see the reasoning and in principle I agree). As a result I've created a page which is linked to my personal Facebook account; this seems OK but the tabs that I have available seem far inferior to other local bands (I've looked through the available tabs and I can't add say a Bandpage which some have) and I'm finding it difficult to invite people to 'like' the page without sending a request to befriend me through my personal account... does that make sense? What I'd like is a bit of guidance/advice on the best way to utilise Facebook as a tool to attract people to my band page, which will in turn keep folk informed of our gigs etc!

Unless you are putting a sale price on these Leroy I'm afraid the mods will be moving them to the eBay section. Not sure if the new rule re. 50 posts before putting a thread up in the eBay section is in force as yet but there was talk of it!

Just realised that even though it has EMGs they are passive!

[quote name='Chris2112' post='1091181' date='Jan 16 2011, 11:02 AM']I love that bass, the woods are awesome and the fish inlays are superb! If they would do those inlays one of their amber flamed maple basses...[/quote] Yes! Now you are talking my ultimate bass though I'd be inclined to specify Quilt Maple.

'Probably' the only bass that I'd go out on a limb for!

I smell a scam or at best a chancer who's changed his mind! Can you clarify if the guitar was an ebay/paypal sale because if it was then that's a whole different kettle of fish! 'IF' it is an eBay/paypal sale I think that the expectation would be that you would be required to refund once you have the guitar back BUT I am aware that my sister sold something (value £30) on eBay and the buyer claimed it was lost in the post so despite my sis offering a refund as soon as she heard back from RM, paypal refunded the buyer regardless! If paypal are involved I'd be ensuring that they are aware that the buyer is now in another country. Saying all of that, if it isn't ebay/paypal I'd be sitting pretty waiting for the LP to be returned first and there's nothing the guy can do to force you to do otherwise!
