I traded my OLP 5 String for Steve's Laney combo amp. A great piece of equipment in great condition. A gentleman to meet and to deal with, Steve was very flexible and delivered the amp to my door. I would recommend Steve as a trader/buyer/seller and a thoroughly nice man to boot!
I never tried that tuning (EADGC)- probably should have!
I am looking for a practice amp, probably a combo, around 150W, not too fussy about the make. I'm just hopeful that I could do a convenient swap with someone not too far from Coventry.
Hi Stingray Pete - thanks for showing an interest (or if mcnash is reading - a disinterest) ;-)
It's passive and the knobs are vol vol tone. I'm not keen on selling, I'd far prefer a trade.
TRADED FOR LANEY COMBO 12/12/10
I bought this OLP MM3 5-String new in 2001 when I was playing the bass a lot but never played it enough to develop as a 5-String player. It has been gigged a few times but it was mostly used for studio work between 2001 and 2004.
I just got a lovely new guitar from BurritoBass here on Basschat and have no amp to play it through so I want to pass on a good guitar that has not been appreciated by me to someone who has an amp they need to get rid of! I am looking for a practice amp and I am open to all offers.
Here are some details on the guitar (some of it is repitition from the above)
Its a 5-String OLP MM3
Black body, white scratchplate
It is made in China
I bought it new in 2001
It cost me 350 pounds
I gigged it a few times but used it in the studio mostly
It hasn't seen much use in the last six years
Ideally I would like to trade with someone who is an hour or less away from me (Coventry).
Drop me a line if you are interested or have any questions!

I bought a beautiful US Fender Precision from this gentleman yesterday. He was totally professional, friendly and helpful. A pleasure to meet you and a pleasure to do business with you! Love the guitar and I was pretty impressed with Gram and Pete too! Thanks for your hospitality, for a great guitar and for a very easy and pleasant transaction.
Masive recommedation!

What sort of 5 String might you trade it for?
I have sent you a PM.
I played in a covers band for a year or two when the first band I was in broke up. I don't regret it even though some of the songs were very painful to mine ears! When I moved here 3 years ago I took some drum lessons, just to keep myself busy musically. I think any kind of band activity is a good idea to make sure you don't lose your love of playing. In terms of setup, I agree with the above.
