Shambo Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 ... or else it gets the hose again! Made ya look. My name is Shambo (AKA Andy) and I hail from NW England. After trawling the interweb looking at shiney new basses I somehow stumbled across this board. I'm hankering to return to bass after about a decade off. My last proper bass was an early 70's Jazz, (black on black, with the block inlays), which I sold for financial reasons and have forever regretted, (especially seeing how much they fetch these days). I've always promised myself I'd replace it with something at least as good. A friend has given me an Ibanez Roadster II which I absolutely despise, it's really horrible to play but it'll do for now and give me another couple of months to save enough to replace it. I've got a tiny Laney 15W amp to practice with 'cause I don't play in any band, just for myself. Hello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hiya mate, welcome to the forum, where abouts in the NW are you? If you were gassing for basses before you joined basschat, you'd better sell your house and your internal organs to fund now - there's too much nice stuff on here!

Shambo Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 Thank you please. What a friendly forum. I'm in a happy place called New Brighton, with the Mersey at the bottom of my street, (I can almost smell it). I do have bad GAS at the moment, the nearest place to do a bit of shopping is Liverpool and the lack of selection & overpricing is forcing me to look farther afield. I could make it to Manc to trawl the shops if someone could recommend me some. I lived there a few years ago and sold that Jazz to Johnny Roadhouse, (I'm still fuming ) so know my way around there abit. I also spend a few years living in Bristol, (hello my babbers).
