  1. CIJ Fender 57' P - Neck like a tree trunk, Duncan pickup put in it, workhorse, solid, reliable. Love everything about it. MM Stingray - Neck too thin, don't like the tone, hate the 3 band active. Generally out of love with it at the moment, but it is always the bass I pickup to record with.
  2. Never like Status basses but something about that one is very pretty, maybe the dark wood top.

  4. I might have to buy one and play it the right way round
  5. Blimey. Someone has to bite that surely. Amazing basses.
  6. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKEWgOc_IBM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKEWgOc_IBM[/url] King of bass distortion.
  7. That is a hell of a lot of bass for 600 quid. Missed a bargain.
  8. Think you are right mate, rule are you cannot use it as an 'auction' as such. You think its worth more put the price up but fairness and rules are you should take the first offer for the full price.
  9. Haha, I said it before I will say it again, nothing better than turning up to the gig, meeting the other bands, talking about gear, saying you have a Ray, getting asked by another bassist 'can I have a go on it mate' only to see their faces drop when I get it out of the case
  10. Real men play pink basses.
  11. hahahaha
  12. [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1335436370' post='1630958'] fixed [b]disclaimer : Throwoff is a southpaw. This is a joke.[/b] [/quote] Whose bass is that? Looks wierd.
  13. Not quite the same issues I can assure you but your point is valid.
  14. Box is tatty. Best bit of description ever.
  15. [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1335437076' post='1630982'] There's a Paolo sig Warlock 4-string on Ebay for £285 at the moment - might be worth a look? Always liked the white with the reverse headstock. [/quote] I could tell you some QC tales about this one.
  16. If looks are key then both will do the job in a metal band but if you are looking at the sub £300 revenge and bronze series instruments I beg that you reconsider! They are not the best built things in the world (I used to work for one of their European distributers) and although the older and higher priced BC Rich basses can be fantastic instruments in the lower range you are paying a premium for it being pointy, not for how it plays or sounds Look in the marketplace on here, again jumping to assumptions and correct me if I am wrong but for an up to £300 budget there are some stunning buys which will play better, sound better and last longer if not quite as cool looking. OLP Stingray with Duncan pickup and electonics? This thing will do any sound you want, and for 200 of the queens pounds!

EDIT: Found another, from the username I take it your a slipknot fan, well here is the bass Paul Grays signature bass was based on (most would agree this is better than the signature one in build quality as well!) 5 strings and only £250.

  17. hahah I think you will find it's the right way round, and by that I mean left.
  18. Hey guys, This is a difficult one but I really want another wick, preferable a streamer or thumb. Would look at more esoteric options (dolphins, etc). Only Vette I would view as a straight trade would be a $$ with the market the way it is. There is no cash price so please dont ask, this is only for Trades. Most interested in - Streamers. 4 Strings only really, I dont play 5's! Will ship bass with a brand new set of strings etc.
  19. I am all about Radio 4 as well. It gets me to work and back Monday to Friday!
  20. Long shot but is shipping possible?
  21. I'm sure a BC'er bought one and ended up paying about what the bass was worth on new p/up, electronics and some serious setup work to make it into a playable instrument.
  22. [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1335109323' post='1625840'] HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA [/quote] Epic response!
  23. Private album eh? What you hiding?!
  24. Blimey, If I had the cash I would be on this like a fly on s***
  25. And as I ask google tells me no! I can get 32 or 2! Oh well!
