  1. Without going into all the fine details of just how much effort this fine young man will go to to make sure things go right let me give you one example.. "I'll catch the next train to Edinburgh to hand deliver the bass as the couriers messed up" Needless to say that dealing with Chris has been as transparent and well informed a deal as anyone could wish to do. Once things looked to be off schedule due to courier issues he stepped in and did what needed to be done behind the scenes, arranging for alternative delivery times etc etc Chris you are a testament to customer service and have put most major retailer I've dealt with in the past to shame You wanna start your own courier service fella you'd be winning awards left right and centre for customer service. If Chris is selling something you fancy just do the deal - it will be hassle free. All the best with the 5 string quest
  2. Met Sam today. Really nice guy and came from Glasgow to do the deal. Top bloke and I wish you continued success with the production. Deal with confidence!
  3. I'd love to play one of these old basses just to see if my hand would fit around the neck The GAS to have one might be beaten by the sheer impracticality of not being able to physically play it Still though something alluring about a bass thats been played in for 50 years or so!
  4. A little bit left field but I heard a great statement recently on some online video The guy said there is no such thing as wrong notes - its just sometimes the case your not playing the notes someone elese wants to hear or expected. I guess that means the band aren't right for you and maybe a band of guys who are more in tune with you would be better....maybe after a short break of a month or two? If you're in a bit if a dip with it all just walk away for a bit and concentrate on doing the other things you enjoy. Read a book kick back to some cool tunes take up power walking!! The desire/fun will return, just don't get hung up on it now and when the time is right you can just pick up and boogie

    Hi All!

    Czesc Michal! Jak sie masz? Welcome and can I offer some advice and warn you to stay away from the for sale pages I'll try and come down to the April 2nd gig. Be sure and list it in the gigs section and give it some bumps just prior to the event......but you knew that already -Hey Marco Fancy going along to this one and having a few brews?
  7. Cheers Be sure and join us on the facey book and you can hear the others there are some great tunes due up in the coming weeks.

  11. Just awake from night shift bump!
  12. Too kind Its a looker - I normally change the p/g depending on the gig - local muso's think I have 3 p basses one with a black guard, one tort and the gold
  13. Had a look today. Nice wee set up but the cab, a Vox Foundation with 1x18 (I believe) was struggling with the output - poss new speaker needed. The head would need some work as it was cutting out at times and again this could be a speaker issue too. Great low volume tone though - a studio amp for sure and lovely bit of dirt once you give it some welly not that I could really open it up, like I say, might need to go into a better cab for the full effect/force. I'd say its a Little bastard beater and for £250 and a once over by a good tech it's well worth the punt if for no other reason than to play Sabbath riffs all day long on some vintage valve gear Only minus is no D.I out (I'm kidding!!) Marco be good to hear it into the 2x15 you have.
  14. I tried it out too Great sounding cab. Big manly and a joy to pplay through. Sat well in the mix with everything else. Bargain!
  15. Little bumps Oh yeah and its yours for £700 with buyer paying P+P. Cheers

  17. Lads There is, by all accounts, a serious thing going on here and its getting swamped with nonsense. It might seem more fair to the two parties involved if we keep the thread focused and not hijack it with random vid's etc. Im all for levity but also brevity. Teacher has spoken
  18. More pictures added scroll back through the post to see them all
  19. Finally some pics in her lovely golden frock for that classic 50's look More to follow in her tort
  20. Three Sisiters Bar Cowgate Edinburgh in Maggies Chamber from 7.30 Top Local bands kicking off the weekend Come over and say hello!
  21. Cheers I'll add some pictures this evening/tomorrow if I can fit in in around my gig tonight
  22. OK here it come the moment you lurkers have been waiting for. The Pbass Price Drop ...... £650 with you choice of pick guard. This is a serious deal - with the NP4 your getting one of the best aftermarket pick ups out there and the choice of guard is saving at least £35. ** Some new pic's added just scroll through the posts** I'm willing to listen to reasonable offers on this but no trades. Any more trades PM's will not be replied to on this one sorry! OK So with the inner workings of my current band slowly beginning to crumble I feel that my gear may be redundant so downgrading is on the cards. This P bass has been tricked out with a Nordstrand NP4 pick up for a more vintage flavour and an old Russian paper in oil cap 0.1uF for a full rich bottom when rolling back the tone knob. The bass is from the '08 livery with all the current enhancements including high mass bridge, rolled fingerboard, satin finish neck etc. I'll include some pics below. Asking price will include new style hard case with the ' case candy' keys, truss rod tool, hang tag. The bass has a black pick guard as standard and I will include a tort and Gold anodised p/g too. They really change the look of the bass especially the gold- gives it a real 50's vintage vibe (see pic's) Bear in mind that these are Fender licensed p/g's and, going by the current Thomann prices, would be about £100 shipped!!! All in with p/u upgrade and extras £750 with buyer picking up shipping. The bass will come strung with either LaBella Deep Talkin' Flats or D'Addario Chromes. Naturally I'd prefer you to come over and try the bass first and you are welcome to do so if you're in the Edinburgh area. Kettle and biscuits are on standby! **Scroll down for pic's**
