___---___ Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I think Clarky paid for my compressor before he'd sent me a pm. Hella fast. Buy from/sell to him. Thanks again, bro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fair to add in my defence however that the slowdown evidenced in my bass gear trading is largely the result of having owned nearly all the Precisions currently on BC. Clarky's progress has of course been hampered by the fact that he keeps poncing around with Jazzes and, dare I say, the odd boutique bass C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Just did an amp swap with Clarky, my Orange Terror for his TC Electronics Classic 450. Sorted out the price/arrangements to collect over the weekend, very good communications. When I got to his, coffee was readily supplied, and spent a good hour plus chatting abt bass & music, and he let me have a go on his Pino Palladino Signature Precision - nice bass, I want one! Thoroughly decent guy to do business with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCB Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Bought a Fender Japan fretless from Clarky - what a top bloke. He patiently waited to meet up whilst I was stuck in traffic on the north circular. I knew he was having his hair cut and with all that extra time, I thought I'd be looking out for a bald guy When I mentioned who I'd bought the bass from to a mate of mine (also a bass player AND Gunner), he said, "well, I'd never buy a bass from an Arsenal supporter..."

lozbass Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Met up with Clarky yesterday to hand over a rather special instrument. My only regret (apart from passing on a fantastic bass) was that we didn't have longer to talk - Clarky is a pillar of the BC community with an incredible enthusiasm for - and knowledge of - bass. He's also a fantastically accommodating and very understanding buyer. Despite a few problems at my end, the deal was concluded extremely rapidly and Clarky made the funds transfer within minutes of our telephone conversation. Utterly honest, extremely friendly and a gentleman player of our instrument. Thanks for everything! I would recommend Clarky without reservation to any buyer or seller.

Nickington Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Recently bought a 62 reissue from Clarky, which I'm more than pleased with. Clarky was a gent and managed to get the bass to me super quick. Wouldn't hesitate to do business with again Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Had the pleasure of yet another deal with Clarky today. I've left a few FBs for him before but just thought I'd mention that he's still a top bloke, still got great taste in bass gear, and is still a highly recommended bloke to do business with. He's also now got two pieces of kit I'm missing already! C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer61 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 What can I say that hasn't already been said, I know.................don't deal with Clarky he's a nightmare.....! Ok, so it's not true but I feel better for it. The deal for his Fender neck was an abolute breeze, great comms, super fast postage and a great piece of Fender engineering. Cheers Clarky it was an absolute pleasure, I look forward to installing the neck. Deal with this fine fellow with total confidence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
