  1. Hi David, You did state that a lightweight combo/head might be of interest. LMII head with a choice of cabs? Although you already have some BFM 10's I see from your sig, so my Omni's will be of no interest I guess. John
  2. £250 collected, or £270 couriered. EA VL210 in great condition. 8 ohm 500 watts 2x10 with 2x5 adjustable drivers, and adjustable tweeter.

  4. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1382938504' post='2258117'] Agreed it is just a bass and that is my point that I don't like the bass and my comment was in no way a personal attack on your self mate so I am sorry if my comment caused offence It was not intended too I don't really know why this topic got so "heated" really anyway the bass is sold now yay All the best [/quote] Cheers T'bird certainly no offence taken by any comments about the bass :-). I think the bass looks like a dogs breakfast too, but it plays and sounds great and wouldn't be unhappy to keep it. I was more surprised by Wayne's defence of the communities right to "lay in" to people...., didn't think anyone had that mindset here?! It's all good.
  5. [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1382910022' post='2258005'] So it's OK to spend years laying into MDP but if it's a member we can't? I have no real feelings either way but it seems a little unfair. [/quote] You obviously do have feelings about it as you said its a little "unfair" that "we" can't lay into whoever we want. Don't really understand why anyone would want to "lay into" anyone else for advertising a bass, or a guitar,.....ffs!...it's just a bass.
  6. Cheers fellas for the nice comments. Its cool, I've been insulted by proffeshnuls, so a few comments on here aren't gonna hurt ......it's just people's opinions, not taken personally. :-) It's actually a really nice playing bass, with the worst lacquering finish on the headstock in the history of lacquering, but I actually like its ugliness. Sold too...
  7. Great amps these. Light as a feather yet loads of headroom. GLWTS!
  8. Awww shucks fellas, much luv back at ya :-) Looks like this has sold on fleabay, just waiting for the money. John
  9. Squier VM body, VM fretless neck, wilkinson large plate tuners, wilkinson brass saddled bridge, Squire single coil Vintage P pickup, Dimarzio jazz pup, no name (but quality) wiring harness, with battery box if active modification wanted, a few chips in the finish on the body......and the worst lacquering job in the world on the headstock. But to be honest I've always liked the whole look of the thing, like its been in a war or two. Don't want to sell, but I can't seem to shift my G&L, EA or BFM cabs, so this is on the altar.

Add £15 for pp, or I can meet up near Dorset, Somerset, Bristol, Bath.
  10. Gareth bought a wee fretless travel bass from me. Very understanding when my week went from bad to worse. Anyway paid quickly and kept me informed all the way! Thanks, John
  11. [quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1376062868' post='2169240'] Jeff bought a pickup and pot harness. Paid swiftly and let me know when it arrived, brilliant! Cheers, John [/quote] This has happened twice, usual prompt payment! Thanks Jeff! John

  17. Sudden and unexpected circumstances have led me to reluctantly sell some gear. This is a Tanglewood TWRB E bass. Excellent condition, never gigged. Its similar to a U bass, but larger. It has built in eq and tuner. Currently fitted with "Pahoehoe" black polyurethane strings, but I will include the original white strings. Huge sound when plugged in. Wouldn't sell if I didn't have to. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0258.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0256.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0232.jpg[/IMG] To give you an idea of size, here it is next to my dreadnought 6 string. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0237.jpg[/IMG] 23" scale Overall length 34". Will come well packed in its original box. I'm in north Dorset, or Bristol midweek if you need to meet up and collect. Thanks, John
  18. £350 + pp Sudden and unexpected circumstances have led me to sell some gear. First off is this, which I still can't believe I'm letting go, but bills need to be paid, food needs to be bought. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0229.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0225.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0223.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0222.jpg[/IMG] I bought this lovely L2000 which had a nice pick-guard fitted in a Stingray style. However, I found the neck so uncomfortable I was not enjoying playing it. But I liked the tonal variation the eq/pups offered. So I had a slimmer neck fitted by a local luthier who does my set ups and repairs...the nut width is 36mm. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0226.jpg[/IMG] It has black machineheads and string tree fitted. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0216.jpg[/IMG] As the original neck had an extra fret, the replacement was too short for correct scale length, so he made a small block to put in the heel/pocket. He then sprayed the block to match the sunburst finish. [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0221.jpg[/IMG] The headstock has a ding at the top [IMG]http://i1000.photobucket.com/albums/af124/basscoach/stuffs/DSC_0219.jpg[/IMG] The bass is a pleasure to play, gets lots of compliments from studio and live engineers for its sound. And other bassists love playing it. I called it my Leo bass, as it has a bit of everything Mr F was involved with, from fender style neck through Musicman and G&L. If you wanted to replace the neck with a G&L, Derek made no modification to the body itself, in order that this could be easily done. I spent a lot of money getting the bass to my spec, but am aware that Tributes go for much less than they are "worth" compared to other makes. But I would say £350 is a reasonable deal, and a lot less than it cost me overall, but please feel free to make offers, especially if you put cash in my hand. Comes with a case, so am willing to post @ £15 No doubt, like my EA cab, I will pester whoever ends up with this to sell it back when my circumstances change! I'm in north Dorset, but am in Bristol midweek if you want to meet up within a reasonable distance. Thanks, John

  20. Fab basses these, quite light from memory.

  22. Stevie, I'd be very interested too if you don't get round to sending this to Bigwan. John
