Might have to come in and give it a go, i love the brazilian fingerboards they are putting on the custom shops models. i unfortunately missed out on the dakota red on but it remains my favourite bass so far[/quote] I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure we don't run that scheme. However we do have our own finance deal that is you pay a 10% deposit and then have the rest on 0% finance for 12 months.

[quote name='blackmn90' post='1278311' date='Jun 22 2011, 11:13 AM']do you have that lush new gold custom shop jazz bass?[/quote] A thousand times yes Tis one of my favourites, presuming we're talking about the 60/64 Custom Shop Gold Jazz?

I've only just started so as far as I'm aware, I don't. More experienced staff have to ability to discount but I"m not sure as I haven't asked!

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='1277612' date='Jun 21 2011, 08:00 PM']Last month four music shops went under, including Dolphin. It's scary.[/quote] That's a genuine shock! I would have thought they'd be able to hold out!

Alright. I'm not working again this week but will let you know when I'm in next!

[quote name='toneknob' post='1276137' date='Jun 20 2011, 05:46 PM']Good for searching. Rubbish for browsing.[/quote] Time to come in store then But I'll pass your comment on as well!

[quote name='Wil' post='1273800' date='Jun 18 2011, 02:48 PM']I love the look of those Chi Sonic pickups. Nice looking bass.[/quote] We have the 44 and 55 in stock in GuitarGuitar Epsom if anybody was struggling to find one? Also got a couple of Laklands with the Chi Sonic pickups as well.

Guess who is working there... I'm in on Tuesday (tomorrow) next if anybody fancies swinging by and trying stuff out. As for the comments regarding prices, we're generally not far off what you can find them online for at the internet-only suppliers like DV, and with the bonus of getting to try it out, extended warranty and everything else you get from a real store, it's clear what's the better choice! It's been nice to meet the couple of BC'ers who have been in so far. Wayne is coming in on Tuesday and possibly someone else is as well so send me a PM if you fancy joining the BC delegation that day!

Wayne I have a spare SP210 Perhaps extend your visit on Tuesday? I only live a few minutes from guitarguitar! Could do cash or trade for another cab, send me a PM if you'd be interested.

How does you have so much stuff?!

[quote name='brummie' post='1275003' date='Jun 19 2011, 05:35 PM']Sorry, I missed the bit about how much BC'ers get?[/quote] I am not sure what you mean? I've been invited back to work on Tuesday so will be in then if anybody else fancies coming by, I know wayne will be in that day if that's an incentive!

I've got both a Jazz and a Precision (Fenders) and tried an MM for the first time today. I've found a new love, again!

[quote name='billyapple' post='1274346' date='Jun 19 2011, 02:26 AM']What!? Bass Strings?![/quote] If only Electric and Acoustic only I'm afraid. Although as I said, I'm sure your guitar-playing bandmate would probably have 'em off you for a beer!

[quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='1274220' date='Jun 18 2011, 10:43 PM']Is there any parking nearby or is the Ashley Centre my best bet?[/quote] There's a car park behind the Odeon which is only about 50 metres away. To get in to the car park head up the upper high-street past the Odeon. Then park right down in the corner nearest the store. There'll be a path out to the road side.

Yes, the Overdrive setting on your OD/DRIVE section should give you a tone pretty much like that.

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1274222' date='Jun 18 2011, 10:45 PM']I'll be in on Tuesday.[/quote] I shall clear my schedule, and hopefully providing I pass my trial I'll be there to serve you!

[quote name='lojo' post='1274209' date='Jun 18 2011, 10:29 PM']Congrats on the job I'm a few miles away and have not heard of this new shop ? You there beyond Sunday ?[/quote] Hiya. They opened yesterday. The company has got a few stores up north but this is their first down here. It's also their biggest and the UK's biggest! Today (Sunday) is my trial, so providing I'm what they're looking for then I'll be staying on as it'll become my full-time job! Which I hope it does And yes, sadly we're not giving bass cables, only electric and acoustic guitar ones. But I'm sure if you drop by and get a set they could be swapped for a beer with your band's guitarist!

I live in a semi-detached and play drums. I don't play after 7pm and make sure not to play louder than is necessary. Don't have any trouble or complaints really unless there's some garden party on next door something like that.
