    :D It's nearly as good as an OLP and obviously far better than a real Stingray 5 this......

    +Thanks for the TIM!! :)

    [quote name='Spider-dan' post='1173404' date='Mar 23 2011, 03:20 PM']Hi,

    Me and my friends are looking to start a band, just for a hobby with potential for small gigs, friends BBQ's etc. We all play at different levels and it's been challenging when thinking of material we can all play that isn't too difficult for one or more members.

    So i'm looking for suggestions of simple rock songs we can belt out and piss the neighbours off with.

    Any suggestions?[/quote]

    With my new band we have been practicing fairly hard doing stuff which we all want to do but we have got to the point (learnt 17-18 songs) where we just want to get a few gigs under our belt so we are gonna stick a few real easy ones in there to get going, our prospective list to chose from is:

    Alright now
    Sweet home Alabama
    Twist and shout
    Anything by the Kinks
    Just looking- stereophonics
    Zombie-cranberries
    There she goes
    Paranoid
    Teenage dirtbag


    There should be a few there....have fun!! :)

    2010 Ray 35. Honeyburst finish VGC. no dings or scratches, just a bit of pick guard swirling in the "pop" area and thumb rest area i.e above pickup.... doesn't show up in pics.

    I bought this September 2010 to get back into 5 strings, did, and I now have a real Stingray 5.
    I paid £639 for it brand new, which is still about the going rate, came with a gigbag.


    Selling for £470 with Hiscock Hardcase, delivered (UK). £445 picked up from sunny dorset :) Any trials etc....welcome.



    No trades sorry

    Cheers

    [quote name='evilLordJuju' post='1127680' date='Feb 14 2011, 09:36 PM']I shouldn't think this will go too much higher. Victorys haven't quite got the vintage appeal of other Gibsons (yet - they are getting there slowly) and they get listed fairly often. This might go higher due to nice condition/case/colour - candy apple reds don't seem to be the most common colour - but i'd be inclined to wait for the next one if it goes too far.[/quote]

    :lol: :D :P :lol:

    In the end it made $2700 / £1670!!! [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/81-Gibson-USA-Victory-Artist-4-String-Electric-Bass-/250771837056?pt=Guitar&hash=item3a632a9080"]Ouch![/url]

    This can't be right surely??? If it is, damn....I should have bought one last year!! :) :)

    Hmmm. I think you're right. + I've been outbid now anyway... :)
    Probably a good job really, shipping and tax would have been fairly hefty. :)

    If anyone sees a bargain give me a shout.
    Cheers.

    [quote name='Soliloquy' post='1125598' date='Feb 13 2011, 12:49 AM']I really, really hate these stupid threads. I just don't see the point in them.[/quote]

    +1. I agree with this.

    Why can't we discuss more important bass type stuff like:

    Which B string sounds better...34" or 35"? Are people who can read music boring musicians? What does good tone sound like? How long is a piece of string? etc..etc....

    or maybe more importantly,

    Who's best....Mark King or Flea??!!




    I'll get me coat... :)


    + p.s... yes, sometimes i do need 5 strings.....
