  1. Thanks for letting me know - glad you got sorted!
  2. Still available - I'll consider a trade involving a (real) 60s P.
  3. Ha ha - I found a crappy video of it... http://www.facebook.com/video/embed?video_id=501373121321
  4. Mrs. WoT & I both played at our wedding, with a scratch-band of mates. It was fun, but we were wrecked...
  5. [quote name='Johngh' timestamp='1360536597' post='1972098'] Well to be fair, I have dealt with my fair share of deals on here that have had problems. Including driving a 60 mile round trip to pick up a bass that a seller didn't send, the bass was bought by a guy in Germany. And having to organise the courier and pack the bass. What I find inexcusable is that PM's are not answered, but just ignored. In this instance the OP's PM's were ignored and mine were as well. It takes 2 minutes to send a PM to explain the situation and take the pressure off, then the member having the problem understands and will get a resolution, and the moderator can move onto other stuff and just keep an eye on developments. Instead PM's are ignored which leads to the member who has bought the item having more anxiety, and the moderator having to file endless reports to the other mods and admins on what is happening. TBH we have a dim view of poor comms, and PM's being ignored. Comms are king, because we're a forum innit ! [/quote] Fairy nuff - you have a better idea of what went on than any of us...
  6. To be fair, we don't know what's gone on behind the scenes. Presumably the OP does, and he seems happy enough, so maybe it can be filed under 'extenuating circumstances'. Forgiveness is one of the more pleasant human traits.
  7. I agree with the OP. No-one has truly turned things upside-down since Cobain.
  8. Crap mastering as well. New stuff just doesn't hit me (sic) like it did before the loudness war. It just makes everything... blander.
  9. [quote name='Shambo' timestamp='1360509373' post='1971400'] I personally am not proposing any change of the rules or policing of the marketplace. I just wonder if my moral compass needs recalibrating when it comes to the BC marketplace... and thanks for the condescending flowchart. [/quote] Not intended to be condescending. Just an illustration of what, IMO, it boils down to.
  10. It's been done to death, man. It's fair to say that most people (including me) frown upon it, but it's not going to go away. I made a flowchart to help people along: [attachment=127205:flow.gif]
  11. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1360482780' post='1970944']one might have popped off its cover and ejected what looks like a roll of soggy carboard,, if it went really well, might just be bulging if not. [/quote]
  12. You have a short memory....
  13. Aiiiirlreet, darren1970! Welcome aboard.
  14. [quote name='RobTheBass' timestamp='1360413887' post='1969964'] last bump was 2nd February...I think I'm playing by the rules [/quote] I don't think you are. it's up to the mods, though.
  15. [quote name='cytania' timestamp='1360410536' post='1969901'] Actually the setup was pretty good. [/quote] I guess you just don't like 'em, then.
  16. *psst* There's a 36-hour no-bump rule...
  17. These basses keep popping up to torment me.
  18. They were in a shop so they were probably set up like crap.
  19. [quote name='Who's Who' timestamp='1360344033' post='1969086'] I thought all 70's jazz basses had bullet truss rods? [/quote] From '74-ish.
  20. It would have to be a direct bank transfer - not PayPal. if you're OK with that, I'll get a shipping quote for you. (Sorry to do this on the thread, but I've had other offers from overseas and this will be useful for them).
  21. Hi Rhammond It's still available, but I'm not keen on sending it out of the UK to anyone but an established Basschatter, Sorry about that.
  22. I'm usually left alone to do what I do.
  23. It's great, innit? That guitar he uses is so bizarre. It's so 'un-JJ Cale'. Crazy guy.
  24. Seriously, Antiloco - if I can just ask you one question: What do you have against trains? Are you also keen to abolish trams and other light rail?
  25. Ladies and gentlemen - Art without entertainment: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItZyaOlrb7E"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItZyaOlrb7E[/url] LULz. This drumer is at teh rong GIG! LOL
