  1. Typical For weeks I've been trying to sort a deal for one of these, with a Precision. Now I'm out of tradeable Precisions
  2. [quote name='BarelyL4' timestamp='1500663013' post='3339527'] Bump! [/quote] Many thanks Bermp.
  3. Thanks guys. I'm really looking for something along the lines of the handbag for the Orange Bass Terror, or Markbass TTE, sorta sports bag thing.
  4. Many thanks chaps, appreciated
  5. Currently lugging a splendid Orange OB1-500 in a shallow rack case that appears to be made of dark matter. I don't really want one of the fabric rack cases, I'd rather just have a protected carry/gig bag that the head can go in & out of. I'm sure some of you splendid peeps will have risen to this challenge in the past. Ta in anticipation, Karl.
  6. [quote name='mr4stringz' timestamp='1500585258' post='3338966'] I'd be all over this had I not picked up a 2x12 TB combo last month. Cracking amps. Have a bump on me. [/quote] Many thanks Nick This is likely to be gone tonight. What I don't get is the lack of interest in the OB1-500. Not just on my sale thread, but generally in the big bad world of bass playing. It's actually a far more versatile & more powerful amp than the OBT. That drive stuff on the right hand side of the amp can make it fearful Perhaps it's because it weighs a staggering 22lbs Sold thanks.
  7. Cameron, open an account on something like ImgBB. Then copy & paste to here. Even a coffin dodger like me can manage that. Sort of
  8. I had a Dusty Tribute and was ALWAYS mystified, that tuning the G string nowt happened. Them fun upside down tuners . Steve, THAT LOOKS FABULOUS It looks like one of my Oranges is going, so may well be having a chat if it's still here next week. Unlikely
  9. Cheers Ian Scotland/NW England contingent, I'm up to Blantyre Sat, Glasgow Sunday, so happy to plan a meet if required
  10. Withdrawn.
  11. [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1500324638' post='3336990'] Can see why there is a market for fakers, I was in PMT at the weekend and stood gaping at the price of a real jetglow 4003 (admittedly a LH model) - just short of £2900 I'm not sure I dare take mine out gigging now without reviewing my insurance.... [/quote] Maple board with black check Chamfered top, belly cut check Easily adjustable bridge check (although it's going to get a black one) Very light weight check Change from £400 delivered check Half a 50's Cadillac wrapped round bridge pick up uncheck
  12. I believe it wer young Britney wot said " oops I did it again".
  13. 500 watts 4 or 8 ohm switch, excellent condition. With original case. I have another amp for sale elsewhere, whichever goes 1st, I keep the other. In Wigan. Any trial. Thanks for looking, feedback linked below, cheers, Karl.
  14. I took mine in a trade with the intent of moving it straight on. I gigged it this afternoon, Jeez, astonishing. The clean sound is fantastic. Looks like my OBT may go up instead. Good luck, fabulous amp.
  15. I won't put mine up this afternoon then . Bargain price for an excellent amp. GLWTS.
  16. [quote name='foxyFuze' timestamp='1499880827' post='3334307'] Well if the sound is comparable to the '98 USA model in this video, I'm very interested. And as you know, I'm not fussed about dings and scratches :-) [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgzD3vcrExE"]https://www.youtube....h?v=rgzD3vcrExE[/url] [/quote] Yup, sounds like that, good bass to play, already having second thoughts. Got 5 gigs in the next 9 days, may re-visit finances after that (ie sod it, I may well keep it ) Sold.
  17. Very nice Steve, 'ave a bermp. (top bloke to deal with peeps ).
  18. Thank 'ee chaps. Staggeringly little interest in this wonderful gigging machine Still, I guess you can get a new Mex Lake Placid Blue for £100 less
  19. Thanks umcoo & Tom. Lozz, I toyed with the idea of getting a claret mirror plate (MK 1 'Arry) or a brushed steel plate (MK 2 'Arry) as this bass is lighter and a slightly narrower neck than the Japanese Harris signature basses. Also seems to be a bit cheaper than the Japanese ones are going out at Never got round to it .
  20. Due to purchase of a rare Precision, I need to reluctantly move this one on. As per title, 1998 Aqua Marine Metallic Fender American Standard Precision. Lots of battle scars and dinks, including fretboard and side of neck wear. I have feedback which I always want to protect, so for this one I would prefer collected from Wigan. Then you make your decision. A great sounding & playing Precision, one of the best I've played. I've forked out £1200 on two basses in two days, so............................. Weight is 9lb 2ozs, comes with a hideously beaten but functional hard case, plus extra black WD scratchplate. TRADES. NO, NO, NO. Except a Road Worn Jazz, or Flea Courier. I would prefer not to, because it's not exactly pristine and I don't want anybody to be disappointed. If you must have it couriered to you, YOU will need to organise it, pay for courier and just let me know day of collection. UK only, sorry. Any trial in Wigan, thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
  21. Beautiful. One of my old girls. GLWTS, it's a belter!
  22. Can't thank you enough Jim, really appreciate everything you've done. World class to deal with
  23. Yeah, go for it. I was asked to audtion for a similar band late last year, doing 2 sets 50's/60's RnR, 1 set Elvis, as the singer does solo Elvis tribute gigs.. As some have said, remembering all the stops is the hardest part. http://www.rattledmusic.com/ The biggest difference I have noticed is when you gig with a classic rock pub band, every gig you have to prove yourselves. It's rare for the punters to be really enjoying it before half way through the second set. With the RnR, the girls are usually up from the 1st number. They are there to enjoy themselves rather than be kinda critically cool. Got some good gigs out of it as well, such as Monaco Ballroom, Cavern and we're at Glasgow's Grand Ole Opry on July 23rd. The one thing I detest (it spoils it for me) is a different "uniform" for all three sets. Enjoy
  24. DUE TO SUDDEN INCOMING Reduced to £225 collected from Wigan BY 5PM tomorrow afternoon.
