  1. No amount of bubble wrap stops them losing it
  2. OK, this has been sitting here at this price for 8-months, I'm getting the hint! I do need to move it out of the sound booth where it currently lives as the booth is being moved on Friday and will be in pretty much permanent use following that. If you can collect it in the next few weeks from my home in Whitstable you can have it for £500. Hell of a lot of amp for very little cash 👍
  3. I wouldn’t choose this unit in the studio but live it does very well; it’s always a compromise with mic and DB but the Nadine makes it less so 👍
  4. DPD have dropped down the league table mate for sure
  5. I've been using DPD until recently when they dropped the ball massively, checked my bank re a claim I made and DPD payments appear to go to Parcel2Go now. And yes, I will never use them again, they simply refused to accept that they hadn't collected my packages despite not being able to explain where those packages were and why they'd not been delivered. Steer clear at all costs
  6. That has made my day @Happy Jack, the basslines that I grew up to. And if you're worried about intonation perhaps go and listen to some AI generated tracks. Personally I prefer to listen to music 👍
  7. You want it you can have it FOC Andy 👍
  8. Need to get rid of. alot of stuff that's taking up space. Something of a bargain I suspect! Tenner or for postage? WYSIWYG Neck/strings not included

  10. Mesa don't really do light, but you can hear the weight
  11. Enfield Fusion Jazz body with 2xQuad PUPs, Badass, 3-band Glockenlang EQ with various push/pull options also. If you want to build a versatile bass, this does everything from Flea BSSM era to Flea Stadium Arcadium era, to Jamerson, to Stanley Clarke, to Bernard Edwards, to..... I could make this simpler by saying that if they played a Precision, a Jazz or a 'Ray, this bass can probably do it! Nicely aged natural oil finish, everything fully functional and undamaged. This is the body of an Enfield Fusion/Avenger built by Sims Custom Shop https://www.sims.guitars/enfieldguitars as opposed to a custom body with Sims Quad PUPs installed. In short the quality of the body, the routes, the circuits etc is as you'd expect given Martin's reputation for high quality work. Further info on this model (which was rebranded from Fusion to Avenger but like all Enfield basses is now discontinued) can be found here https://www.sims.guitars/enfield-guitars/avenger

  12. 43kgs so not light, although built in wheels and rolling bar take some of the stress off. As per pervious post, if I were going to be regularly gigging it in and out of clubs I'd probably rack the head and put a couple of rack panels in the combo 👍
  13. Last bump on this before I take it to a shop for a consignment sale, sadly just a bit too big in both physical size and volume to justify keeping So.... Combo £800 Head £550 (I have an old mesa Boogie 4u rack case that I can provide with it) 2x12 Cab £250 Happy to talk offers or trades on this
  14. Job done Yamaha showroom 👍 All joking aside, everything Yamaha do is 100% better than the competition
  15. Soundguys/girls really do have to put up with a load of utter onanists don't they 😀
  16. Took me a long time to really feel him. Wanted to like him for years because he seemed a cool artist to like or get. But now he's more like a drug; no need to do any more than press play and feel better 👍 Funny thing is I used to think he was a bit inauthentic. Think that was me. He's just playing music after all
  17. Yes, there is that, not uncommon
  18. Great little tools these are 👍
  19. Fantastic @mybass, my music story was similar to yours albeit without the happy ending (and to be honest without the talent also) Gibson Bass and Fender Fretless, very specific !
  20. Long day, feeling a bit stinky poo, nothing serious just first world crap. Then on the radio comes Tom. Feel better already
  21. Yep, that sounds familiar. Never underestimate the effect of even a few seconds of rock-star arrogance between a band member and the venue to scupper future gigs irrespective of how well you went down. I've a mate who I used to gig with who is the most polite and respectful person you could hope to meet. Until around 2-hours ahead of a gig when he arrives at a venue and finds the slightest thing not to his liking and puts on just enough attitude to avoid a direct confrontation while still managing to fosters off people at the venue, IME gigs really can bring out the best or the worst in people, often because of a mix of excitement, anxiety, impatience, and ego. Not me of course, i'm lovely
  22. I suspect I'm technically owed several items that bandmates borrowed and either broke and handed back, kept, or sold when I was in my 20's, a lovely old tube combo, a fiddle, a Selmer Sax and a decent Westone bass among them. The thought of trying to chase them down now fills me with anxiety at the sheer level of work and potential pain involved. I can only guess this Ric must mean a hell of a lot to you to be going to these lengths, so all the best with your search. But as @Steve Browning said above, and as your post that I've quoted suggests might be the case, unless you're suggesting that you're prepared to forgive and forget and pay market value today for the bass, if you were lucky enough for the current owner to come across one of your threads, I suspect you're going to make them less, rather than more, likely to get in touch Good luck either way 👍
  23. Very well thanks mate, hope the same's true with you. That's not only a hell of a bass but part of your life, must be tough to sell. I bet it could tell a few stories as well
