[quote name='cetera' post='93238' date='Nov 23 2007, 11:18 AM']Here you go.... this is my Fernandes non-reverse Thunderbird: [/quote] That headstock looks very Spector-like, and the inlays too.

My Ibanez guitar case smelled horrible, stale cigarettes...... I got a bunch of leaves (bay leaves I think), which were pretty fragrant, and stuck them in the case. Left it out open in the sun for a few days, and then closed it up with the leaves in. As for the guitar, I put loads of lemon oil and fast fret on the fretboard, new strings, cleaned out the hardware. And just left it in my bedroom.

I want a cheap 5 string with a maple fretboard, I guess its either that or waiting for Rondo music to get some back in stock, so I can import one.

Do you think the Music outlet shop EVER sells any instruments?

Now [i]thats[/i] how you sell a bass.

I'm tempted to go on it, seeing as its in Derbyshire.

Why would there be wear in the middle of the bass, under the strings?

He definitely goes all-out Peavey gear doesn't he? ......I mean Basses, Heads AND Cabs?

The amp has a minimum impedence of 2ohm, its one of the older USA models. Should I be looking at cabs which have a higher or lower power rating than the amp? The amp is 450W RMS @ 2 ohms, 300W RMS @ 4 ohms, 170W RMS @ 8 ohms So basically, if I'm looking at a 4 ohm cab, will something around 200 watts do, or is it better to have something over 300w?

I got one of these, and I have decided not to sell it. Whats the most cost effective cab I can get for it? I play in a metal band (Think Metallica, Slayer etc) with 2 guitarists. They both have pretty loud valve amps (about 50-100w) I was thinking of getting a matching Peavey 1x15 cab off the bay, and when I needed more volume, get a 2x10. Good idea?

That story seems pretty BS. I'm sure anybody could come up with a far better one. Theft? Fire? Item was listed elsewhere and is therefore no longer for sale?
