    [quote name='MOSCOWBASS' post='879515' date='Jun 28 2010, 08:46 AM']I watched Jackson Brown last night, very good, but why did his bass player bother changing bass from a nice old P bass to a Lakland P with a soapbar....they sounded very much the same on the telly! [/quote] Sponsored?

    [quote name='99ster' post='878601' date='Jun 27 2010, 08:13 AM']Yes - he certainly was. The one with the RW neck & black hand-painted headstock that he was playing in the last days of The Clash. [b]Jackson Browne's bass player had a very nice old PBass - early 60's I think. [/b][/quote] Bob Glaub?

If someone buys it I either add the P+P and arrange it online or I ask the buyer to arrange it at our mutual convenience. Tom put me on to Parcel2Go - great service.

    As said last night - rocked my rocks last night watching Willie Nelson's EMG loaded Epiphone playing bass player surrounded by mouth organs, dead Martins and a steinway. Also spotted Corinne Bailey Rae's guy with an Ibanez blazer (noted before on here.) Finally - was Simenon playing his legendary P-bass? Good start. Bring on the Muse ensemble tonight....and Scissors Sisters.....and on Sunday, the daddy of them all: [url="http://www.bassplayer.com/article/nathan-watts-stevie/May-2010/113947"]http://www.bassplayer.com/article/nathan-w...May-2010/113947[/url]

    Sorry guys, work, the world cup, laziness, doubt and an inability to shoot black gloss has sent me over the edge! (Not your faults!) Here are my best efforts: Best/worst ding. Bridge area. I had many attempts but a combination of an inability to control the flash and reflections of my semi-naked body in reflection meant they are the best two I could get. To wordify the images, the 'arm-rest' area one is through the polish and paint. The 'horn' one is noticeable but only through the polish. I am not trying to hide anything (not that either of you suggested I was) I am just crap at indoor photifying! I hope this helps you guys.

    Cheers everyone, I'd never used WU before and I can't see what could go wrong at my end if they are paying me so I'll keep you informed.

    [quote name='Ou7shined' post='877893' date='Jun 26 2010, 01:20 AM']Seriously though, how out of touch are you if your only option is to use WU in this country? Presumably they have access to a computer if they can get on Gumtree, therefore they have access to PayPal and/or bank transfer. And if you are a bit out of touch there are cheques, even bloody postal orders.[/quote] I've had my PayPal account hacked before and unless it is on here is a bank transfer not more dodgy as direct debits can be set up?

    [quote name='jezzaboy' post='877777' date='Jun 25 2010, 09:20 PM']Paul Be very careful of Gumtree scammers as I had a couple of dodgy characters recently. If you have to ask the question, I`d walk away man. You can send the e mail you got (assuming that`s what happened) to Gumtree admin and they can advise you, and they get back in touch quickly. Jez[/quote] He phoned me and said he'd send the money WU first. Now - how can I lose if I go to an office and walk out with the readies? Is it too simple? The WU site says you send the money and get no protection if the sale goes wrong, so I'm sitting here thinking how can I lose? The worst that happens is I don't get the dosh and the geetar does not get sent to London?

    [quote name='darwin' post='875093' date='Jun 23 2010, 08:15 AM']Hi, I'm very tempted.... could you take a couple more shots of the two dings please.... Thanks.[/quote] I'm at work just now but I'll see what I can do tonight mate. Tom had some great hi-res images when he sold it that I can't match with my 'Cooncil camera!'
