i was hoping for nothing under £100. if at all possible maybe a little more than that
the person i bought it off had no idea what it was/how much it was worth so i payed £120 and wanna see if i can get more than i actually paid for it :D

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:01 AM

Its a good plan. I wouldn't want to let things go cheap myself, I just really want an electric, lol.

Rollo47 05-20-2005 07:04 AM

Hey All

How are we?

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:05 AM

Think its worth asking in the 'Lod if anyone will sell me one cheap? I wouldn't know if they were trying to rip me off though...

ElKapitan 05-20-2005 07:05 AM

yeah, i'm saving up for a new Bass. so far i've saved £40 in actually notes, about £60 in coins (!) and i'm selling my guitar and old bass for the rest

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:06 AM

Mornin' Rollo. Got a spare electric? :D

the best piece of advice i can give you is to try out any 2nd hand shops near you. take someone who plays guitar and get them to try stuff out
i mean i got an Epi LP for £160 in near mint condition! u can get some real bargains :thumb:

Rollo47 05-20-2005 07:07 AM

I have one, but it's not spare, and it's a piece of crap.

I never play it.

ElKapitan 05-20-2005 07:09 AM

i also have a Squier Strat that i've resprayed. its even got an iron cross vinyl on it :D

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:10 AM

There aren't any second hand guitar stores around here! :eek:

Only Soundcontrol, which has a few used guitars, but they're not cheap. May as well by a new Pacifica or something for that price.

ElKapitan 05-20-2005 07:11 AM

i'm off for a bit peoples, i need to get some food, i haven't eaten yet today so i be hank marvin himself!
might be back on later....have fun :wave:

ElKapitan 05-20-2005 07:11 AM

Pacifica>Squier imho
good call :thumb:
latos!

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:13 AM

okay, bubye Anthony! :wave:

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:14 AM

Well, the school's Encore > the school's Squier! So either way, Squier is out...

Thunder Fingers 05-20-2005 07:24 AM

we are not far of the 100000...

anyway, anyone have an experience with gallien krueger microbass series? im thinkin about buying from them... and find a cheap cab to use until i can aford an high quality 2x12 cab...

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:28 AM

Just buy a 2x12 combo. Eden Nemesis series. Expensive, but not much more than my Roland cost me.

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:29 AM

How long does it take for this thread to get 800 posts? I reckon we can get it tonight (doubtless while I'm in bed)!

Rollo47 05-20-2005 07:32 AM

Hmm, I'm not sure. Things don't pick up in here for about another 4-5 hours, in my experience.

Thunder Fingers 05-20-2005 07:34 AM

[QUOTE=fatbandit]Just buy a 2x12 combo. Eden Nemesis series. Expensive, but not much more than my Roland cost me.[/QUOTE]

i am after high quality stuff, but Eden dont sell in Norway.. not as i have managed to see anyway..
on my list i currently have:
EBS
Warwick
Gallien Krueger
Hughes and Kettner Quantum

fatbandit 05-20-2005 07:52 AM

Got rid of Roland from the list?

Thunder Fingers 05-20-2005 07:53 AM

oh, i forgot it :p

ROM 05-20-2005 07:54 AM

*falls in*

Hey guys

Thunder Fingers 05-20-2005 07:55 AM

but im thinkin that i might buy heads now, cause i maybe needing alittle more wattage now that i move away and gonna have to start using my own amp for band practice... so a 300 watt head and a 2x12 cab would have suited me well...

fatbandit 05-20-2005 08:01 AM

Ya, sounds good. Looked at Ashdown? I'm not a fan, but I know many people swear by them.

Thunder Fingers 05-20-2005 08:37 AM

never tried them.... But I am mostly intrested in EBS and Gallien krueger.... and Ashdown dont make 12's...

Rollo47 05-20-2005 09:03 AM

Go play this game and try and beat me.

I got 340.

Spaceman Spiff 05-20-2005 09:39 AM
