  1. WOT, not everybody spends more than £20 in a weekend in the pub. The only time I go to the pub is when I'm gigging. It was an Englishman's right to go to the pub for centuries, but it is now the wealthy Englishman's right. Risingson, second hand may be slow everywhere, however my last three items have brought only interest on here. All three were on hold within a couple of days of going on Bumtree. Conan, bit naughty fella, glad you have changed your mind a bit. Fumps, as we all know, FEEBay only charge after you have sold, not before. On a wider note, the fee was introduced on the sales fora, however, it was, in my understanding, to benefit the whole site? Karl.
  2. Hello Dood, sorry to pester but is the fretboard rosewood? Also, I'm a bit dozy but where is the trussrod adjustment access? Cheers, Karl.
  3. Thunderbird, if you think people ask a lot for there stuff here, you are right,in a small number of cases. But have a look on some of the free sites £450 for an Epiphone Explorer £700 for a Japanese 57 RI £800 for a 5 year old US Precision £750 for a 10 year old US jazz In general buyers on here get an excellent deal.
  4. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1371421585' post='2113829'] oh and personally I took the £20 fee as a sign that I should stop swapping basses around so much! [/quote]
  5. Well he was on this morning, but no comment from him?
  6. I get the feeling an S12T may be up for sale before too long I miss my Schro 410 BMF so much, but with narrow doors in the house, I don't miss leaving my knuckles on the door frames at 2 am. Mind, they are bad enough from me perpetually scraping them on the floor when I walk
  7. Yup. The point I was trying to make was I used to be able to say to a FEEBayer; "Nice bass, you want to try selling it on Basschat, it costs nothing to join, or to put an ad up for your bass" Obviously I can't do that now. Mind the prices some goons put out on Bumtree and FreeLoved, they are obviously not considering that the same price on FEEBay has about 13.5% to come off in fees.
  8. Amazing bass and price. GLWTS Karl.
  9. If I saw an interesting bass on Feebay, from somebody who obviously didn't know about Basschat, I would point them in this direction. I don't do that now, because of the fees on here. I probably put 15/20 new members our way last year. My Alembic is on hold to a guy from Bumtree who is coming back next Saturday with the cash. If a very good conditioned Alembic doesn't go on here for £1000 it perhaps shows hard times? I did have A LOT of offers for exchange here, but the only suitable offer was another guy from Bumtree. Perhaps most of us on here have filled our boots anyway?
  10. Jeso, how hard can it be? It doesn't need anything other than an IQ equal to a poodle. Luggage scales with hook. Tie a yellow ribbon round the neck of the bass and gently hang bass off ribbon.
  11. Tosspots Go To Cricklewood, meh, hated them (just pointing out the other view )
  12. [b][quote name='4rchitec7' timestamp='1370951027' post='2107771'] I'm sure the post office is near you [/quote] Think no shipping includes the Post Office. Makes no difference sadly, it will be gone before my Alembic sells [/b]
  13. Another stunning bass. Bump.
  14. A "you could have picked a better time to join Basschat " bump.
  15. Got my mojo working is a definite must!
  16. [quote name='4rchitec7' timestamp='1370889321' post='2107019'] No shipping really ??? Why am I living in France ???!!!!!! [/quote] Trust me fella, it would be quicker for you to drive from France than it will be for me from Wigan You want it, you gotta go the extra mile
  17. Right Dood. I was determined to get down to two basses,but I am going to attempt to sell my soul for this. I would like to offer a straight swap for my Alembic Epic. Unlikely, but as you don't directly (yet) say no to trades, I had to try. There are 5 people interested in my Epic but nobody has come up with the loot yet, hence offer for trade. Good luck regardless, that bass is amazing. Karl. Alembic link [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/208589-alembic-epic-4-made-1995-much-relative-cheapnessflame-claro-walnut-top/"]http://basschat.co.u...aro-walnut-top/[/url] Near Norwich is about 5 hours for me, but I will do it if I am offered!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (where's the emoticon for begging?)
  18. You'll be sorry Mark, the only thing that compares at this sort of weight (your cab is 53lbs) is a Barefaced IMO. Even with one of those, until it's done a few gigs you will miss that mid range thump and projection. And the volume. And the floor rumbling . Better off getting a GB Shuttle or GK MB 500 to sit on top GLWTS, Karl.
  19. It's frightening this is still here. Great price for a great Custom Shop bass. A rare chance to get one yet not snapped up yet
  20. Yup, it's got more chance swinging it's handbag down the docks with Baldrick
  21. Amazing piece of kit peeps. Ashdown are always on the telly for a reason and this rig is the very best of quality with arena performance (actually white chicken heads alone do it for me ) GLWTS Col.
  22. Welcome Yolanda, great stuff. Of course you have created a monster for yourself! Now, how long before the terminal GAS in the sweetie shop called "for sale"?
