Just sold my Jazz Bass to Marc who is a newbee. There was no meesing about he paid swiftly by bank transfer and the deal was done. No problems at all, dont hesitate to deal with him. Thanks Marc, hope you enjoy the bass. Stu

After speaking to John over the phone i was confident enough to send him cash for the above item, as soon as the money arrived he dispatched the recorder. It was very well packed and was exactly as he said. Easy transaction, really nice guy and someone to trust. Thanks again Jynxterstu

[quote name='thebrig' timestamp='1336137756' post='1641465'] I've just received my final copy of Bass Guitar Magazine after subscribing for three years. When I first started reading it, I found it really informative and interesting, now I just flick through it in about 30 minutes, and don't bother to pick it up again. I love reading reviews of new basses etc, but I found that they seem to predominantly review basses, that are way out of the averages bass player's price range, so because of all these things I cancelled my subscription. When the final copy dropped through my door yesterday, I thought to myself, am I going to regret not getting it any more? but when I started reading it, I knew that I had done the right thing. Once again, it was totally uninteresting, virtually the same adverts in every single copy (I know they have to make money), but I think I have seen Geddy Lee sitting on those Orange amps far too many times now, and interviews with mainly unknown bassists from not-very-well-known bands talking about their playing styles, telling us if they use a pick, or play finger style, whether they do, or don't slap etc, Yawn!!! and of coarse, then there is the great bass guitar review for millionaires! They had a nice [b]£5,200[/b] [i]GMR Flow Out 6[/i] on review in this edition, think I'll just nip out and get me one! or I could save a bit, and get one of the [i]Enfields[/i], as they were only [b]£2,650[/b], or the [i]Yamaha TRBJP2[/i] for [b]£2,999[/b], or the [i]Dingwall Afterburner III[/i] [b]£2,845.[/b] Ok, they did also include a couple of [i]Fret-King[/i] basses at just [b]£599[/b] and [b]£629[/b]. This must be really off-putting for younger players out there, who buy the magazine for ideas and inspiration on what's on offer, only to read about high-end basses all the time. There are so many great basses below £500, but how are they to know how they play and sound, if all they get to read about, are reviews on basses that only the rich and famous can afford. Sorry, rant over! I just needed to get this off my chest, and just wondered if any other BC's have similar thoughts. If not, I will just have to accept that I am just a [b]grumpy old man![/b] [/quote] I agree with you ! i cancelled my subscribtion 12 months ago for pretty much the same reasons. The other thing that drove me mad was they rarely put comments on photos which on many occations helps follow the review or story. Your comment on the Geddy Lee add made me LOL. Nice Jynxter

Hi Oliver & welcome to BC I visit Brussels quite a bit, any suggestions for small venues to check out local bands. Jynxter
