  1. Though I deeply deeply love trace Elliot gear. But I have to admit to my old self I just can't move them anymore.  I have a limited few to, well give away really  ( I suppose  a real gentleman ) would offer some meagre contribution but it's not vital ( especially if you are starting out enthusiastic) please don't reply  of your intention is just to sell them on l could  do that my self. I'm talking about the 1980s big buggers 

    Let me know. Bearing mind I'm in Rochdale UK and you definitely have to collect  yourself 

    Much love low enders

  2. Hi guys,

    Ive been lacking on the site since my great Friend MB1 passed so unexpectedly. head really f**ed by it he was one of my best mates.

    I wanted to ask you guys (as I cant ask Martin) what the thoughts were on a Phil Jones practice combo?

    ( okay Ive already pulled the trigger to be honest)

    Whats the thoughts ?  its as small 1x10(?) and i needed sommat small for a UKE band ( I know.. buts its fun) so it has to be a wee one help/thoughts /advice?

    I have a little ashdown 30w thing as well..... the days of my trace super rig are gone eh?.......

    thanks guys......

  4. It was a moving service I'm glad I was to be considered  his friend/compadre we go back to '82 together.

    I offered M many deps that he was more than capable of doing but no... " integrity over covers  😎  but what's the dough?" he never caved in   ( I can hear him in me head ) as the celebrant said  he was " easily the best Bass Player in the room"

    I will miss him deeply. as for flowers and wreaths he probably have said  " flip that

     spend the money elsewhere useful " in fact he would have insisted but be touched by the offer nevertheless  it was nice all the same...

    MB1 was sent in his next gig  his signature double denim, docs and ACR Tee shirt how Manc is that? good journey M  see ya in awhile our kid... 

     god Im gonna miss him so much  :(  so sad.....

    He wouldn't have said " Flip" btw  ........

  5. I appear to have been robbed gentlemen, apologies if there is another thread on this, but they took  £80 of me in June and nothing since. robbing bast*rds.
    anyone any info on what the score is? tried email ringing and everything.
    oh any Good  guys for on line orders out there?  if they stock DBB end strings for a status that would be good. Thanks in advance W

  6. Hi
    I have been using Stringbusters.co.uk  an on line site for some time but they seem to have let me down, I have paid for 4 sets of strings in May and seen or heard nothing!!  ( used lots of times and no issue till now) so Worried I've never had any problems before. they haven't answered the 'phone or e-mail. despite that, can anyone recommend a good reliable retailer? ( I would like some Double end strings lights and some light gauge standardish strings too)
    Reccomendations welcome
    thanks

  7. how do you link two combos together? link from where to where? so they both work from one bass (sorry to ask dumb questions! but you know what I mean! :)) I have a 4x10 combo that would sit nicely with this rascal.
    would you consider a packing it up for a courier? if the link thing would work?
    perhaps too much hassle?
    let me know or PM me.

  8. I bought one of their wireless transmitter things to be honest on a whim at the Lancashire guitar show. The salesman, nice guy (why wouldn't he be?) says he's sold to some of the guys of this very parish. All seems ok transaction wise . He didn't know what a Status bass , was worried. Tried to explain the output was high. Have I made a mistake or is it all good? Thoughts ....? It wasn't very dear but you know what I mean!
    I intend to use it with a stingray. What do you think?

  9. The bass player (well current not original but still ace player) for Big Country (not Tony but he knows his sh*t) is on here I think he's called "all thumbs " but I Could be wrong. He has a web site called "Scott Whitley" bass services or something like that look for him he's your man if he doesn't know know one will. He's a great chap too and I have no doubt he'll help you out. My pleasure! 😀.
