I have done a few deals on this here forum, buyz, sellz, tradz and with one exception they went seamlessly. Rather than bore you with the pedantic minutia of my Fretless NT Thumb transaction with Vdoc I thought I would award a points system. In this case it works like this: 1 Point is Sh*te 10 Points exceptional. Communication before Cash Transfer: 8 Communications after Cash Transfer: 1 Packaging: 1 Tracking Communication: 1 Overall Feelgood Deal factor: 1 I did do due diligence with three other people who had dealt with Vdoc (Newbie) and agreed to go ahead with this leap of faith, my decision and my experience. The bass will need some work but thats acceptable for an '89. This may help other Basschatters with a GAS conundrum Oldman

Sing the tune in your head, yep, in your head. You can learn the bass, then the words, or do it together. But, if you know the tune inside your head you will know when it is 'wrong'. Singing and playing bass is your independence bit that drummers take for granted. A good start, IMO is old rock and roll stuff, you can laugh but it chugs along and is relatively easier to hold the tune ... When it gets to Politician or Born Under A Bad Sign well that is when you need the Tune in you head. Oh, and sing at the top of your voice, in the car, get a feel for your range.... Works for me

Guys, searching for a utopian app that would effectively do what the TASCAM electrickey does, I found Practise Pro, downloaded the Lite version which is Free, then promptly forgot about it, the way you do. I revisited it last week when I wanted to listen to something a bit closer and ran the lite version, it did what I wanted, allbeit with a limit to length of tune, but it allowed you to listen to a minute or so. So I bought the full blown version £6.99, an Apple rip, but still. You can book mark and loop, keep the pitch whilst slowing down the tune. No bass specific filters, yet but the Author, Balazs Faldi said that would would be in an upgrade.................... Try it if dont already have it, if you do got it, tell Balazs and review it... Thanks for perusin'

Put my Alesis iPAD 2 dock up for sale, it was languishing in its box unused and unloved, neglected by an over ambiteous bass player who's mnd made promises his ability could'nt keep. Steve took it off my hands. Pay Palled earlier than promised, great guy to deal with another seamless deal.Thanks Steve.

Just traded my DHA VT two valvey pedal thingy + a cash uplift for the PJB Bss Buddy, seamless, What's to say, Fab deal, I sent the money and the pedal Mark sent the BB extremely painless. Another exellent "Shopping Experience" via Basschat.
