Oh wait... I moderate that forum and should have spotted it... :wacko:.

Quite possibly one of the greatest bass moments, ever.

I find 4's the least 'effort' to slap on. Have had a 5/6 string too - could be done but found I had to concentrate alot more.

Yeah it works well and looks snazzy. Although I would like to complain about the fingerprint/marks on the left of the pictured Jazz

Super video - makes it look so effortless. Congratulations on the endorsement .

This week: Marcus Miller Jazz (a reoccuring GAS item since I started playing bass) Ibanez BTB555 Ashdown ABM500 Ashdown MAG115

Looks a bit tatty ! I'd want a discount for all those scratches.

I find BGM to be a fantastic read, albeit a little short. This is probably more quality over quantity however - which cannot be criticised. The reviews I find do tend to air towards higher end gear - then again I don't get every issue and might be missing the budget reviews. The interviews are superb - some top names have been in there and have always been a great insight.

[quote name='The Burpster' post='26651' date='Jul 3 2007, 07:14 PM']Matt, maybe its time to have a seperate ebay forum? I'm getting a little tired of policing the above type of thread. We all know there is charlatans on ebay, its great that we shoull identify them to protect the inexperienced and those with certifiable GAS, but the constant slagging off of folks errors, and niaivity is a little tiring..... I'll post my suggetsion below...... [/quote] I was being sarcastic - you'll notice I have made a similar post only yesterday .

[quote name='Waldo' post='24749' date='Jun 29 2007, 10:21 AM']Well my experience of the Ashdown practice amps is that they're unreliable - Having had two break on me in the same day![/quote] I've heard other people question their reliability. However I know several people who heavily gig their MAG's and have no issues what so ever, my EB also hasn't given my any issues.

Super stuff - I was feeling the vibe after about 5 seconds. Jamersons lines are beautifully understated, and that Precision thump is wonderful.

Sheesh, people ranting about eBay listings - so full of anger ! ^_^

CK stole my idea - Sandberg are fantastic value for money. I've played a few of them now and always been impressed.

The impression I get is that the Highway one finishes aren't as resiliant as the high gloss ones. They look very susceptible to dings and scratches to me. Rayman has a H1 Jazz and i'm sure could tell you properly.

Oh dear.

I keep mine in Iraq.

Hmm to be fair it might be just cosmetic. The messy routing is under the pickguard and won't be seen, although it is extremely bad. But no - I wouldn't buy it.

My opinion is you won't get the B string sounding great on any 'small' practise amp. I've had the Ashdown Five Fifteen (bigger brother to the Perfect 10) and that was fine (but was 65w). I suppose i'd choose the Ashdown out of those 2 - but I am biased.
