    He mentioned on Wednesday that the bass was due to be delivered on Thursday but had said he didn't hold out much hope.He also said that he still wanted the bass,so I guess he was offered his money back. The tracking said nothing on Thursday and when I checked today (Friday ) one week after it should have arrived the tfacking had been update showing it delivered!

    There is a happy end to this story....The guitar arrived at the buyers home yesterday after being missing for 8 days! No idea what happened. The tracking stopped last Friday when it was marked as not arrived. The buyer raised a case with E bay and there was some tracking updates but I think they DHL,were looking in to it! Fair play to them them found it in Livingston a week after it was lifted from me! Oh and I must say sorry to the two guys in the white van that uplifted it from me! (They did look shady)

    The upshot was that e bay sorted it out pronto and both myself and the buyer got our dosh...

    Great condition for year,these guitars are well regarded and were the line before the Classic Vibe range. Cheeky Fender logo added by previous owner,maple body which looks stunning! It's a two piece I believe and doesn't have the usual odd matched stripes. Very low action,straight neck with no real wear on the frets. Pearloid block inlays with binding on the neck. I have fitted a Fender hi mass bridge and Fender neckplate. Looks a lot nicer in the flesh and feels ,sounds and plays like a higher end Fender bass. Some marks on the body where the bridge cover was fitted...I will chuck that in...small mark on back of neck,on the laquer,but not a bash. I get a lot of attention when using this guitar and will miss it but need funds for an upgrade to my amp and cab. I think that's all...any questions just ask. Now I have just had an issue with DHL so I would prefer a local uplift but can pack securely for a courier uplift if you want to sort something out. Please use Parcelforce 24 or the likes I will not use EVRI or DHL. NOW SOLD

    Yes...but imagine the disappointment when you buy a bass and it never arrived.Correct..with the old system I would have been stuffed.
  8. theplumber
    No....it just didn't arrive.The parcel was within the size and weight limits.Tracking showed it scanned in at my home and then marked not arrived.Also updated over last couple of days but it's marked as lost and eBay paid out to the buyer and myself.

    Sold pending the usual......

    You may have seen this bass for sale on here last week. It's now missing! Was sold on e bay last week and picked up,scanned by DHL and taken to Edinburgh depot. Two guys came and picked it up,left in plain white van. Self employed couriers working for DHL?. Anyway it never arrived with the buyer on Friday and was sent using the E bay simple delivery system. You may know that e bay have revised their selling platform.....the less said about that the better! In saying that it has worked out ok now that time has passed and the guitar has been deemed missing. I won't say what I think has happened to the guitar but just a heads up for e bay sellers. Yes we both have our money but it was a bit stressful. E bay delt with it and there was no issues....So in the word of the old boy off the telly from years ago...If you have been offered a cut price Squier Classic Vibe P bass 2008 in Sonic Blue Serial number CGRK 08001666. And seeing the numbers at the end of that means there is a curse on anyone buying or playing it! May your fingers fall off one by one! Over and out!

    It weighs a touch under 10 Lbs.....That's with the high mass bridge and ashtray cover. So in fact does my red one though I have uprated the tuners to Gotahs on that one.
  13. theplumber
    It's heavier than my red one....I will check with the luggage weight checking thingy!
  14. theplumber
    Yes so do I...the red one! Needs must as I need a couple of lighter cabs being an older dude!!
  15. theplumber
    These don't come up very often...well not unless you count that one on e bay for £650!! Anyway ...I have some speakers in mind and am selling this guitar to help fund them! Plenty of info online about these,have a swatch! But if you don't already know this is from the first year of production in China. (Grand Reward Factory) The guitar is set up ready to go. New strings,low action,straight neck . Some minor marks as expected for age of it! I have another of these in red which at the moment I am holding on to. I am in Falkirk so if nearby feel free to drop by and test it out. Failing that sort out a courier and I will wrap and box the guitar for tracked postage to you. UK only thanks. Any questions fire away! SOLD!!

    Was in a band a few years ago. It became apparent that our set was beyond the vocal ability of the singer. After a torturous gig in which he murdered a few rock classics I sent an email to the band suggesting that it may be time to revamp the set and get some rehearsal time booked. Never mentioned the duff singing at all. In all fairness he was ok on about a third of the set. I got a message back suggesting that the band had played that set for years and were in no hurry to ditch anything. Also I was told don't reinvent the wheel and if I wasn't happy,I knew where the door was.... I sent one word back....SLAM!

    Was in a covers band a few years ago and after a few months of weekly practises we had only done 3 gigs...all unpaid! I suggested we all tried contacting local pubs to see if we could get some bookings. I phoned around a bit and after a couple of hours had managed to get bookings in 3 separate pubs. Next practise I turned up and gave the news to the band .One by one they knocked back the pubs saying...''too far away'' and ''shithole'' Ok I said,what have you got? As you can imagine they had nothing. So after a pretty tense practice we had a bit of a chat. I said that if we don't get gigs soon I am going to have to pack it in. They said they would have a meeting the next night when they had more time to chew things over. I decided then and there that I was not going to the meeting. Needless to say the very next morning when I open up our Facebook page I spotted that in the band line up it had been altered to Bass Player ?.........I contacted the singer next day and she said that I had ''Taken the fun out the band''
