on a face to face meetup is cash ie 1k the usual done thing these days or is that a red flag in terms of possible counterfeit issues for the seller?

we just couldnt agree because he had some figure in his head of what he wanted to walk away with and he stated the fees would kill him at my highest price point so it fell through.

i couldn't come to an agreement with this seller on price because the reverb fees were getting in the way. I have since noticed a while later purely from the photos that the same instrument is now on facebook market place at the same price so i presume i could now seal the deal without fees getting in the way ...but am i legally barred from making an offer if i already made an offer on reverb?? of course i know people just do it anyway but is it legal to do so or can reverb bar people for doing this?

I think this would make the most sense …essentially the process of exporting it yourself as you fly out has been seemingly scrapped.

social media is subliminal suggestion and control .. do you know its happening and do you much care?

use a semi permanent paint marker that you can just scrape off so that you aren't committed.

ah ok...too bad.

no i am not ..thanks.

I remember a few years ago being able to get the vat back on some music gear that i was taking out of the UK at Heathrow airport .. is that still the case today? the shop im thinking of buying from says they don't subscribe to the process anymore more with a special form post brexit and that i would have to do it all myself .. its going to hong kong tax free port. but getting clarification about this procedure online is not that easy.. do you guys know anything?. Thanks.

... in the early 80s there were some parts with barely no fences at all.

i prefer 4 strings but wanted the lower register, i now have a couple of my main basses tuned to standard drop D which is the best compromise imo.

my slapping technique solidified a lot after buying a status ...and now i can do pretty much the same on all my other basses ..but it was the status that did it for me, so in my case good gear did improve my skills.

I want active basses to have an on off switch so I don’t have to keep pulling out the jack all the time to save battery drain in the studio.

well not if you say you are doing it ...come to see the band and oh yeah your phone won't work....nobody is forcing you to come.

maybe venues could jam mobile phones ...?

i really think i am ...i have so much stuff of which i am not worthy, it will take the rest of my life to get the most out of it which is what i plan to do.

great question ....i guess my answer is that i never really believed i would ..always did it for the music.

procells are apparently less likely to leak which is why i use them, but that ebay price seems suspiciously way too low.... do they come with the little plastic caps on each terminal?

Anything by cure, new order, simple minds, killing joke and any other associated indie bands …all on standard tdk c90 grey coloured.

angry seems to tick all the boxes except it lacks that definable killer hook ...which is a bit of a deal breaker, but i can understand why they want to still keep their hand in with making a new album because the moment they stop trying then they become a bit of a where are they now tribute band, but touring for them is the ultimate payoff for their aging egos ...nothing like playing live in front of millions with an unrivalled back catalogue but still being able to say "this is a new one off our latest album".

all my basses are the one, that's why i never sell any ...

i pxed my thunder iii for a wal pro 1 fretless... long time ago but i did remember the thunder had serious neck dive issues ...the wal was way better.

this got me googling ..lol

so i guess you also aren't a fan of their version of eight miles high?
