[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1334036694' post='1609833'] Not my thing at all, but looks like a lot of quality for the current price. Let's see what it ends up at. Sheffield isn't in Derbyshire [/quote] Yeah, I thought that but I thought a local would know better than me?

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1333916743' post='1608288'] What's happened to the price of the genuine article? They seem to be going down whilst fakers seem to be selling at pretty robust prices? Mr Hall's efforts perhaps backfiring on him? [/quote] I've been thinking that as well Chris. There is a bit of distrust coming into it as well I think, been more than one "genuine" of late that has been questionable. I keep looking at a black with black scratchplate from Urmston(Manchester) it's been up 3 times I've seen, with BIN of £1100 and it ain't going. Pretty sure it's completely cosher as well. Bloody spelling again!

[quote name='Chambo' timestamp='1333912702' post='1608203'] Isn't it just another Explorer copy? [/quote] Yeah, shame about that hideous headstock , so much better if it had been P style like the wonderful Explorers John had.

Of course, the obvious way to get the gig is do what I have done for 20 years............ Have a van . -

Not got the life span to read 24 pages. Original question................. answer regarding one of our guitards......... "Hello"

Not really up on these things but just seems like with phone number and expressed preference for collection, the original ad may have been down to inexperience in our ways. Mind, if I go to collect any gear and have cash for it, I always give Attilla the Hen the address I'm going to and expected timetable, just in case. Better safe and feeling a fool, than sorry

[quote name='stewblack' timestamp='1333827216' post='1607142'] I had it the other way about. I'm in a band based a long way from home but the drummer is simply the best and I'd travel wherever I had to in order to work with him. Anyhoo we had the line up sorted all bar the sax. Organised audition for this guy, I drove two hours there for his audition and not only did he not turn up he didn't bother phoning. He lives about 10 minutes from the audition. I told the others there and then row him out. If he can't be bothered to come to an audition he has serious reliability and commitment issues but I was out voted and made the trip again another day so he could try out once more. Long one short: he refuses most gigs we get offered bitches about learning new songs, turns up late and moans about the money all the time. Aren't people great? [/quote] Think I'd be tempted with a sharp lift and seperate of the cobblers! There really are some selfish ignorant pricks about. -

Barrie, it's like a job interview. You do the prep, you get it or you don't. Thing is some interviewers are completely unprofessional knobs and the same applies more so with egotistical prats in bands. Hold your head up that you behaved with professionalism and dignity. We should all take happiness from Clarky's recent shenanigans. The right one is waiting for us, we just gotta make the effort and have patience. We all know your rep as a top bass dude. We should all name and shame bands who behave like this and BLACKLIST the ignorant twats. Karl. -

It's an absolute beauty, it's on here, the Bay and Gumtree. Lovely maple board , you don't get that with the originals. Mr Hall has already had this one pulled 3 times and sent a snotty email to the Lobster.

OK, looked for this for 5 years as this was the make of bass I used in my nearly glory years (nostalgia is expensive ) No serial number so pre 75. White front, black chequered binding, black sides and back, natural neck and headstock. Issues. Tuners not original, change left holes in back of head stock. Originals are included in sale. Not convinced the jazz rotaries are original although both **** and copies have used them. I know the selector toggle is not original. The big one. Both pups work fine individually, but when both are selected, only one works, so it's a wiring issue. This is reflected in the price. I was going to get this done after next week but circumstances have overtaken me. Inevitably it has a few nicks, chips but it is in superb condition for a bass that is over 37 years old. This was never going to be up for sale, but Her Who Makes Toast by Breathing on Bread has declared back to 4 basses or lose your small genitalia. Reason for sale is I have been extra-ordinarily lucky and this morning I picked up a 1998 FENDER!! Donald "Duck" Dunn Limited Edition Precision. Something has to go. To me, ***** and copies need playing with a pick. I don't play that way now, so this is the one that's gotta go. Will courier to UK after clearance of funds. £400 collected, £425 couriered after clearance of funds (cheque/bank transfer) UK mainland Highlands/Ireland will cost more. Sorry, no PAINPal, abroad only if YOU arrange courier to pick up, and YOU arrange insurance. Apologies. Please check my feedback, any questions fire away, Previous FEEBay sale on the link below. cheers, Karl. SOME WORDS EDITED IN LIGHT OF RECENT EVENTS!!!! Bugger, forgot the trade bit. Only trade considered, EBS NEO LINE, 212, or 210 or 410, 4 ohms, must be immaculate.Ta. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/167269-absolutely-staggered/"]http://basschat.co.u...tely-staggered/[/url]
