    [quote name='MarkusWarwick' post='946171' date='Sep 5 2010, 01:59 PM']actually my attitude came from the idea of someone asking a lot of questions while having no interest in purchasing the bass. Im quite happy to answer any questions that people may have if theyr interested in purchasing, and Im usually very easy to deal with, however, I just felt my time was being wasted. Apologies if i've been taken the wrong way. Anyway, hope to hear from anyone that may be interested, and apologise for any offence caused previously. Cheers guys[/quote] No apology necessary. GLWTS

    How is a 38 year old bass new? :wacko:
  6. tom1946
    The serial number suggests it is a 2006 model, so it was 3 years old when you bought it?

    I find this very frustrating because now I'm retired I have time (and money) to have lessons. I've been playing bass in our church band for 2 years, self taught with just bass notes above the words and learning a few basic runs. I don't read music. I played 12 string for 45 years on and off until our bass player left hence I'm the default bassist because my wife also plays guitar and sings a lot better than me I'm Teesside area and I can't find a bass teacher so I'm in a rut. I did find one guy but he only wanted to show me his gear and how good he was and after one 'lesson' that was the end of that. I would love to find a good teacher.

    I also hate 'brought' instead of bought. Classic and cool guitars website offends me when he remarks: 'much sort after' it's SOUGHT you idiot! What about 'proffessional setup'?? don't get me started.......

    I bought my 50s CV from mormusic, can't fault them at all, in fact I bought a Gretsch there last weekend! My CV is fantastic. They price matched for me but at the time everyone was £299.

    Christ not again Can you send a pm rather than drag threads up from that long ago, people don't realise until they've spent time looking. FFS.

    [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' post='936273' date='Aug 25 2010, 07:14 PM']Okay , we all know names like 'Precision' 'Rickenbacker' 'Markbass' etc. But the names of things being made now , are ,in my opinion slightly embarrassing. For example, Dean make good basses. However,I'm never gonna ask for a 'Playmate'. I'm not old enough to remember him ,but it's a saying by Arthur Askey-'Hello playmates' ! Ashdown 'Little Bastards' . Not really good if you're trying to prevent your children from swearing Are there any more that you can think of?[/quote] I'd love the ashdown LB but I play in a church

    That's right Steven, I could hit 'em over the heed with it eh? Have you still got yours

    I really wish people would stop doing this! Send a PM or something, stop dragging old sales threads up, just wastes time.
  19. tom1946
    That's a good buy mate
  20. tom1946
    Hey Tom that looks good! Did you get it for a good price? I have a Rockinbetter loaded with rick pickups, bridge, wiring etc', I also had a real one and I couldn't tell them apart so I sold the real one

    [quote name='basskit_case' post='933742' date='Aug 23 2010, 03:02 PM']Again? [/quote] Sorry, should have said 'almost'
  22. tom1946
    Thanks for the replies, as you can tell I'm not very up in the world of bass players having played guitar for most of my life.

    Having been a Yamaha dealer until retirement, I can certainly agree with Sean, excellent build quality and superb pickups too. I have a Sheehan already so I can't have another more's the pity.

    Oh dear, I can feel the money leaving me
