Always best to take photographs etc of how the bass was before sending, package it securely and ensure that you send it insured.
  2. I'd be quite frankly amazed if ebay refund you and allow you to keep the bass! I've plenty of ebay experience and of being conned/mis sold items and the scenario these days is that if ebay/paypal find in your favour, they hold the funds and refund you when you return the item to the seller. Unfortunately you will invariably be out of pocket to the tune of the return carriage (correct; though you have done no wrong and they have tried to fleece you, the cost of return carriage is 'your' responsibility). However, I'd love for it to be true that you do get to keep it but that would leave ebay wide open to litigation. Good luck.
  3. [quote name='BassKS' post='547229' date='Jul 22 2009, 02:50 AM']a jetty laggy bump. cant sleep but need the money and need to shift this one.[/quote] There is a guy on the Wick forum from Canada that I did a painless, easy sale with and he is defo interested in your bass (obviously he pays insured shipping)! If shipping in that bombproof flightcase all you need is some extra bubblewrap and a cardboard box from a cycle shop.
  4. [quote name='alexclaber' post='546677' date='Jul 21 2009, 04:31 PM']Yes, or insert yourself in the list between them and the next person. No point trying cabs at home - they need to be in rehearsals or at gigs with guitarists and drummers to compete with! Alex[/quote] Cheers Alex, I'll sort this out with WoT.
  5. [quote name='alexclaber' post='546582' date='Jul 21 2009, 03:21 PM']Does this seem a logical route? Alex[/quote] Are we to assume that if we know one of these people or are in their vicinity then we can get in touch with them to try out your cab(s)?
  6. [quote name='JPJ' post='545450' date='Jul 20 2009, 04:38 PM']Captain Indecisive strikes again! [/quote] 'This time' I am skimming the top and (with a bit of assistance ) making a lightweight bass rather than trying to buy one blind! My Summer Holiday Project!
  7. [quote name='dvae' post='545337' date='Jul 20 2009, 02:37 PM']Will you deliver this via courier, or is it pickup only? Does it come with a gigbag/case? I've been looking at getting one of these for a while now, and this looks like too big a bargain to miss.[/quote] I think you were a bit too slow off the mark as this is heading back to me again!

  9. [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='545010' date='Jul 19 2009, 11:17 PM']Quite so.... the Panda's a great car!![/quote] Exactly... but only the 4x4 version!
  10. [quote name='DHA' post='544860' date='Jul 19 2009, 07:19 PM']I will put one together in the next week or so. Looking at battery and power supply operated unit in a 120x90x35mm box. Active EQ, treble, mid and bass with 15dB cut and boost in each band (same circuit as my VT1-EQ), Mid band sweep Q control. Level pot and on led. XLR balanced DI out and 1/4" jack line out with high level output. 3 postion ground lift switch for the DI with Float, Ploat and ground. 1/4" jack in and if I can fit in on the box another 1/4" jack out that bypasses the line out, i.e. connected to the 1/4" jack in but DI will still work. Will work as a DI, EQ, Clean boost and Pre-amp. I will need to make a PCB if this pedal goes into production so will offer the first 5 takes a handbuild version for £49 including P&P. Target price for the production versions will be £59+PP. Dave DHA[/quote] I'll take #1 Dave... so long as you hand number/sign it and supply the power supply! Cheque or paypal OK?
  11. Active/Passive... matters not a jot! Turn them up full whack and adjust the input of your amp accordingly. Of course if the resultant sound is not to your liking go back to turn everything down to zero and start adjust everything up incrementally and according to taste... until you get to full whack!
  12. Fiat Panda / Bugatti Veyron... they both do the same thing but I know which one I'd rather have!
  13. [quote name='didle' post='544513' date='Jul 19 2009, 09:42 AM']There's some mighty fine axes in this thread already. Here's my contribution, my Streamer LX-5: She's 10 years old this September - anyone know how to determine her real age? Cheers, Doug[/quote] The serial number on the back of the headstock - the last 2 digits are the year and the letter at the start tells you the month in which it was made (A=Jan, B=Feb but drop the letter 'I') or you could put your serial number in here for full details (mind even Warwick get it wrong occasionally ) [url="http://www.warwick.de/modules/support/serials.php?cl=EN"]http://www.warwick.de/modules/support/serials.php?cl=EN[/url]
  14. [quote name='the-bass-man' post='538979' date='Jul 12 2009, 11:21 PM']Gotcha, just hope the weather's good enough to do this all outside in the next few weeks! Well, this is Scotland...![/quote] Don't forget the midgee repellent!
  15. Sunday morning hup! I do have to stress that this is a 'very' decent guitar with an uber-low action and would be a great first guitar (Ped ) or for use to do recordings in a home studio set-up.
  16. [quote name='silddx' post='544313' date='Jul 18 2009, 08:56 PM']It's a bit hard to tell in WoT's vid because he likes a bit of HF thwak going on I think. I roll the treble off quite a lot.[/quote] [quote name='wateroftyne' post='544451' date='Jul 19 2009, 12:50 AM']Heh.. it's not very often I get accused of liking HF. [/quote] I nearly spat my cocoa on the keyboard when I read that! Hell's Teeth... WoT & treble/top-end mentioned in the same sentence without the word 'not' in there; unheard of.
  17. [quote name='thedonutman' post='543496' date='Jul 17 2009, 07:28 PM']Is it just a standard glossy white finish? It looks slightly metallic from the pictures, but I imagine that must be the lighting. Don't want to sound like a tirekicker, but as soon as I can move some guitar gear I'd be very interested in this although I fear it'll be gone by then [/quote] It is indeed pearlescent/metallic white and I have no objection to you voicing your intent and I'd look forward to you flogging your gear and coming back with hard cash.
  18. [quote name='CHRISDABASS' post='543248' date='Jul 17 2009, 02:34 PM']Not sure on that mate? The mrs does the driving and she's workin most of the weekend! Hmmmmmmm How far are we talkin?? [/quote] I just checked out where Keighley is and I hadn't realised you were so far down into Yorkshire! As much as anything it was the time to get to you and Saturday is tight for time as it's my work leaving party. Ah well, I'm sure this will get snapped up soon.
  19. Friday, 'gig just got cancelled due to the weather' type bump! The two International sales that I had lined up, have gone cold (probably due to the carriage costs). Surely this has got to be a bargain worth bagging?
  20. Any chance you could drive North a bit for a meet?
  21. [quote name='GreeneKing' post='526553' date='Jun 28 2009, 10:27 AM']Here's my 1990 Thumb It's like something that's been hewn by German elves with Adzes. And a photo nicked from John: [/quote] I thought I recognised that! Oh and when I've got a spare hour I'll stick some pics up (past and present) but when 'peted' referred to the original Infinity Ltd Ed's he may have been referring to this bass.
  22. [quote name='Musicman20' post='542515' date='Jul 16 2009, 07:18 PM']That would be VERY helpful! Thanks! Did the Aguilars come out on top?[/quote] Pretty much, yes. Though a couple of the cabs were highly rated.
  23. [quote name='Musicman20' post='542501' date='Jul 16 2009, 06:54 PM']Has anyone seen this or a link to it?[/quote] I have a copy somewhere but can't find it to hand. I may be able to help you out with a scan of the article (sorry I'm keeping it)... when I find it!
