this is exactly what i did from this forum ..picked up a good secondhand example at the mentioned price and it did not disappoint ...the perfect mini combo that can handle a low b at room volumes.

it just looks so awkward ..

i'm really impressed with the longevity and feel of phenolic, prefer it over ebony, rosewood or epoxy..all used with roundwounds or groundwounds.

the tascam model12 springs to mind ..its essentially their old 80s portastudio rebooted into this century ...its workflow is pretty much the same ie multitracking without too many bells and whistles getting in the way...only difference is that this time around there are about twice as many tracks and its digital.

you can just use the messenger app on its own to keep in touch with friends.

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?
