  1. Used wireless for over twenty years, then went back to curly lead, Bullet cable's finest. Stays off the floor, lot of distance available and brings back curly lead memories of my yoof
  2. Love it.! I'm off to Halford's
  3. These lot want more for a second hand one than a new one would cost delivered. No wonder they are too pig ignorant to answer my emailed question. I suppose at least it got them to change the ad from "new other" to "used". Another shop looking for gullible punters [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300962570639&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:GB:1123"]YAMAHA BB714BS BILLY SHEEHAN SIGNATURE BASS ELECTRIC GUITAR (4-string in black) | eBay[/url]
  4. They seem to be legal contracts that FEEBay absolve most responsiblilty on. I guess the way to push the contract would be through the small claims court. I also guess most people CBA (can't be arsed). bloody spelling again
  5. But if we don't exist, how can it be your Little Pony? How can something that patently does exist, belong to somebody who doesn't? Why does my one brain cell hurt, should I give it back to the wife (she definitely exists )
  6. Aha, Falkirk, I remember, Behind The Wall. Knew it was a daft name.
  7. Can't remember the name. Pub in Falkirk town centre, side road, little pay car park opposite, Very busy pub. Bands play upstairs. Raised stage right next to the bogs entrance. Perfect for drunken numpties to fall UPWARDS onto stage knocking bass players and bass into back wall Or pissed sound engineer in Preston, falling over, knocking two basses out of stands, onto rims of bass drums. A couple of a myriad. I've never damaged any of my basses, there's plenty of other muppets to do it for you
  8. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1378798637' post='2204685'] My useless memory Karl, just visited your feedback page, only to find I commented on it at the time [/quote] Didn't like to say , but I was very grateful for your comments!
  9. So even 20 years ago, they made the odd good one in Mexico then
  10. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1378792708' post='2204638'] That is a worry, didn't occur to me that any of that had gone on here. [/quote] Extremely rare Gary, but it happened to me. See page two of my feedback. He HAS in fairness changed his behaviour since then, but he had negative feedback from me and two others. He also tried to screw Ash, who was much wiser. This guy changed his member name last December, losing his negative feedback. Mine was still on my feedback,still is, despite asking mods to remove his comments. So, yes, rare, but it happens.

  12. [quote name='Lowender' timestamp='1378790702' post='2204632'] I guess I wouldn't leave feedback cause I don't even know where you'd do it. Here's the thing with feedback though...I find it's either too flattering or too dismissive. In other words, most of it is useless. If someone is easily impressed or someone just wants to knock you down what's to be gained? Few people can critique music objectively, since taste, is subjective. I'll say this about what I heard. It's nice enough. Well perfomred. Professional. Bass playing sounds good. I didn't find it especially captivating, but it's hard to get into music you never heard before. The bass had too much low end. I get that you want it up front but if it's loud and boomy it just sounds amateurish. The kick drum also shared the sonic space of the bass ( a boost around 300hz) and that made things more woofy. It's not the type of thing that's getting record contracts, not to mention the age factor. But at a certain point, music has to be about making art and/or entertaining others. Getting angry because they aren't paying attention isn't the best PR toward getting more fans. That's my feedback. In part. [/quote] Completely missing the point. Feedback is vitally important (especially for gear tarts). People who do not leave it are lazy and discourteous. Negative feedback is also important. The only other thing about it that narks me is con artist members changing their name to get rid of the bad feedback they have had (you know who you are pal ).
  13. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1378740664' post='2204013'] ...Nothing is real. [/quote] So nothing is real, therefore if you were to give me your custom P bass you would be giving me nothing, so I would have to give you nothing for it. So I'll be round in the morning to collect it
  14. When I see Jedson's and original Futuramas going for skywards of £300 I think if somebody buys them they are classic more money than sense. They were crap planks with strings then and definitely won't have got any better. £300 would see me with a good MIM. YES they do exist
  15. If it had been Fiesta Red it would have been me that got it. It wasn't, I didn't!
  16. [quote name='bassgurumonster' timestamp='1378713690' post='2203413'] Whoever had this bass before you must have been mad to let it go ................ [/quote] Yes Mike you were In the interest of making people's research easier, hopefully couple of links following; [url="http://bassemporium.com/?p=2196"]Fender 1975 Reissue Jazz Bass Review[/url] [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-american-vintage-75-jazz-bass-natural-maple/15812?gclid=CO3-gb65i7kCFXMdtAod_CgABw"]Fender American Vintage '75 Jazz Bass (Natural, Maple)[/url]
  17. Yeah, tried Bumtree and Freelove but little joy and quite a lot of timewasters sadly. Hopefully a FEEBayer will come on here and buy through this website. If not, as I say, last stab. If I keep it I will make sure I gig it occasionally, to justify having it bad back = " Stunning bass.good with e bay". Thanks Jamie. Your offer was very close last week. If you are still as interested, perhaps you would pm me at some time, we may be able to work something out. Cheers, Karl.
  18. [quote name='MB1' timestamp='1378722595' post='2203577'] 'karlfer' I need a lie down (and to put all 4 of my basses up!) Karl. MB1. ...Now that'll make your eyes water? Fnarr Fnarr! [/quote] You really are a tad smutty aren't you
  19. Oh dear, I'm in love again Questions. 1. What is the weight please? 2. Is that 3 rotaries and a micro switch? 3. What do they all do/ 4. That thumb rest, is that original? Looking forward to the answers, cheers, Karl.
  20. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1378658243' post='2202870'] A Lake Placid Blue, matching headstock jazz bass with rosewood 'board, pearloid block inlays and cream 'board binding... Lightly relic'd. [/quote] Get a Lakky Daryl Jones and a sander!
  21. Thanks chaps. Bungie, that Sterling Onyx is stunning, I'm sure you have treated yourself to a beauty there. Cheers, Karl.
  22. Form an orderly queue you lot.
  23. Wish I could take photos like that. Scream for me Wigan
  24. Now on FEEBay All attempts will be given up after that. It's an excellent bass at a good price (on here). Cheers, Karl.
  25. Thanks chaps. PM's replied. Prefer sale. There is a second hand one of these on FEEBay right now at a BIN OF £1250! Once one of the three sells (if I live long enough ) I will remove the other 2 from sale. Cheers, Karl.
