    [quote name='pal1972' post='650870' date='Nov 10 2009, 05:39 PM']ive got a fender frontman 15b if intrested in a swap?? - headphone socket, line in etc![/quote] That looks like the sort of thing, it's not worth a straight swap so I'd need some cash as well if you want to make an offer.

    [quote name='stevie' post='650650' date='Nov 10 2009, 02:08 PM']This is the price of entry to this forum. [/quote] She's usually pretty easygoing but a 4x10, a head, a combo and a bass were a bit too much in one week!

    [quote name='paganskins' post='646097' date='Nov 5 2009, 11:19 AM']Withdrawn, on arrival it's not as big as first thought so I'll be keeping it.[/quote] On trying to work it into my practice space/routine it's a bit too big size wise. Also the wife's not too happy, apparently the house is getting like a marketplace with all this gear coming and going. Happy to swap for a Rb1 or 2 or similar small practice amp – 15w or higher, small, aux in and headphone.

    I love Guilds and got very excited when I saw [url="http://cardiff.gumtree.com/cardiff/34/48780534.html"]this[/url] fretless unfortunately but looks like a good deal for someone.

    [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='647308' date='Nov 6 2009, 03:07 PM']Hmmm... had my heart set on a light bag... but at that price its bloody tempting![/quote] I have one I use to hold a multi FX, the foam is pre-sliced into 1cm cubes so you just tear it away for a form fitting fit. They are quite light (aluminium) and come with a strap though it would be painfully thin if the case was holding something heavy.

    I'm interested if the P&P is reasonable. Also your feedback link isn't working.

    I've been looking for a small practice amp and put a cheeky low bid on a Laney RB3 without checking the specs properly, it has all the features I was looking for but it's much bigger than I expected (Width 489 x Height 483 x Depth 303). eBay listing [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220499562591&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_696wt_909"]here[/url] I paid £75 in total and will be happy to break even. I can ship but it will be at the buyer's expense, I do however get very good rates through work (usually £10 or less). I'm in Swansea, South Wales and can deliver/meet within a reasonable distance. I'm also up for a swap plus cash for a smaller practice amp (aux in and phones essential).

    Any idea what the cabs' ohmage and wattage is? Wondering if they could be paired up with a more powerful head.

    Thanks for your replies. The Clayton book looks interesting, the 8 week crash course book I've borrowed from the library is also one of his and looks to similar but quite heavilly abreviated. [quote name='Doddy' post='595887' date='Sep 11 2009, 05:44 PM']Most guitar players who switch to bass play bass like a guitar player,with incorrect technique and most of all,with the wrong mind-set.They tend to not think as a support/groove instrument and more as a root/riff chugger. Don't look at it as a simpler version of the guitar, treat it as a unique instrument with it's own idiosyncracies. You will get more out of it that way. I know it's a generalisation,but I've seen it many times.[/quote] Fair comment and something I'm concious of. I'm not sure what the options are teacher wise locally but I'll look into it. However I don't think funds will stretch to lessons until the new year so in the meantime I'm stuck to working from books.

    Hi, I'm a long time guitarist (electric, acoustic 6 and 12 string) about to add bass as an additional feather to my bow, I'd welcome suggestions for books and other resources worth looking at. Along with a couple of absolute beginners guides I picked up [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/First-Bass-Ultimate-Guide-Fundamentals/dp/087930846X/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252680389&sr=8-7"]this[/url] from the library, listening through the 150 odd MP3s on the accompanying CD looks like it should cover dexterity/coordination drills but doesn't seem to have a lot in the way of actual lines, grooves or how to put together your own. [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bass-Guitar-Dummies-Will-Lee/dp/0764524879/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252680531&sr=1-1"]Bass Guitar for Dummies[/url] and [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bass-Handbook-Complete-Mastering-Guitar/dp/0879308729/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252680565&sr=1-2"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bass-Handbook-Comp...0565&sr=1-2[/url] seem to get pretty good reviews on amazon. I also found [url="http://www.studybass.com/"]this[/url] at the top of a google search for 'bass guitar lessons' Any advice gratefully received, thanks
