    Sold.

    This has only been used a couple of times, so it looks like new. £35 posted.
  2. This is an amazing book, I believe it was a favourite of Jaco's. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thesaurus-Scales-Melodic-Patterns-Text/dp/082561449X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1334229245&sr=1-1 It's in excellent, like new condition. £15 posted.
  3. I have a ridiculous number of books, and don't have room for them all. Here's another one that is in really excellent condition. It contains more scales than most people would ever use, or even know exist ! £10 including postage. Please, no stupid offers, this is a bargain price.
  4. These are by Stuart Clayton. Both are in excellent condition. I'd like £8 for each one, or £15 for both, including postage.
  5. Since the arrival of my new Weather Report poster these are redundant, and I don't want them to just get all screwed up. They are both in good condition, especially considering the age of them, the blue one is from the One man album tour. The red one is from the Level 42 2002 tour. The red one has a very small tear on the bottom, about 1cm long. It's not noticeable when it's framed. The blue Mark King one has a bit of creasing to the one top corner, again it isn't noticeable when it's in a frame. I have a top quality tube that these can be sent in, so they should arrive safely. My Weather Report poster came all the way from Germany in it. I only have one tube, so I'd prefer to sell both posters together. I'd like £20 for both, including postage.
  6. I just think that, if you give criticism then it should be in a positive manner, and not use it in a negative way.
  7. I was there yesterday afternoon. He was trying to parcel up I don't know how many things that had been ordered while he was away, he'd resorted to doing it outside probably due to lack os space. He still found time to talk to me about pickups. Walking into his shop I always feel like Alladin walking into the robber's cave .
  8. That's an really good thread. I was looking in the wrong post. Your original opening post was very well put, and well worded. I like Janek's reply too, about what the album is about. Maybe one or two of the posters on here should actually listen to the album properly, after reading his reply. I don't understand why people have to use so much time and energy being negative.
  9. I believe these are the same as the Mark King amps ? Very nice amps !
  10. [quote name='stonecoldbass' timestamp='1334019685' post='1609808'] Hey guys, you might want to check out Janek's reply to the post I put up over on Talkbass, interesting response. I have replied as well but still waiting to see what he has to say. Healthy discussion all round! I'm kinda glad it didn't turn into a 'this player is much better than that player' discussion...as has kinda happened here [/quote] Have you got a link to that ? I did look in his ask a pro bit, but couldn't see anything.
  11. Bob Dylan was once criticised by a guy by a guy who claimed that his new songs weren't as relevant as his old ones. Dylan reportedly just said "well I'm out here writing songs, what are you doing ?" I guess the same applies here. Janek does have these great gigs, and he does tour around the world supporting his own album and doing clinics. It's all too easy nowadays to criticise someone's achievements, while you yourself have probably never played anywhere other than your bedroom, and rely on your mom and dad to fuel your self inflated ego by saying how brilliant you are.
  12. I do like the Olympic white ones a lot. Like I said earlier, they are well made. If you spend a bit extra and upgrade the pre and maybe the pickups then you'll have a really nice bass. One thing to bare in mind though. Say you paid £800 for a used bass, plus another £150 on an improved pre, that's not far off what you'd pay for a used Sadowsky, which is a far better instrument.
  13. I spoke to someone vaguely human there once. My sister in law traded on there for years. She had over one thousand positive feedbacks. A month or so ago she sold one of my brother's unwanted Christmas presents to a guy in Leeds. It wasn't particularly valuable, about £30 or so. Anyway the guy that bought it reported it as being faulty and not as advertised. Consequently he got his full money back and sent her the empty box back. The item was perfect. His feedback showed that he'd done the same thing on several occasions. EBay didn't want to know, and wouldn't help her. He even left her negative feedback, totally ruining her trading on there.
  14. The Marcus bass is well made though. Shame about the ugly pickguard.
  15. I tried one and you can't play chords up around and past the 12th fret. Not something I do all of the time I admit, but it is something I do and found that I couldn't.
