.....forgot to mention that the Jazz comes with a Fender hard case. P.

I have a Fender Jazz American standard 4 string, exactly the same as this..... http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/bass_guitars_detail.asp?stock=12031011002558 that I'd like to trade/swap for a similar quality Fretless or Fretted Precision. For the fretless I'm Ideally looking for something like a Precision, Warwick Streamer, Stingray but will consider anything except another Jazz. Can't get used to the slim neck. Precision wise Im after something with a maple finger board and preferably Black or Olympic White. What you got? P.

Hi, Im on the hunt for a Charvel or Jackson bass. Preferably an 80's model, something like a 3b or JS3V but will consider anything, even a 5 string! May also consider a Kramer along the same lines. What ya got?

Hard Rock covers band "The Height of Abuse" need a drummer. We cover bands such as... Motley Crue, W.A.S.P, Ozzy, Megadeth, GnR, LA Guns, The Cult, Aerosmith, Maiden, Van Halen, Black Label Society, Skid Row...and anything and everything else that is along those lines. We are a bunch of 30-40's guys who always have crack, don't take ourselves seriously but we do want to play as well as we can. The aim is to gig ASAP. If you think it's up your street, gees a buzz! Cheers P

Ive been after a Markbass for a while. I take it you're not after any trades?

I knew that! Cheers for clearing that up. lol

Good luck with this. I've tried a few times over the years to get involved in a Funk Band but to no avail. I love a bit of Funk. I'll attend any gigs you get on the go if you post details on here! by the way, excuse my ignorance.....but what instrument is "lg"?

pm'd ya!

"Cheap-ish"? How much you looking to spend?

Absolutely nothing wrong with a bit of originality. Aberdeen has had and still does have plenty good original bands. One of my favourites from a "few" years back was 'One God Universe' Cracking band with great songs too but unfortunately never got the breaks I feel they deserved. The same can be said for bands up and down the country tho! Very few get the recognition due. Im also a fan of current bands like GutterGodz, HellHouse and Semperfi. Time will tell if these guys get the breaks!! Some punters do indeed like the same old same old when watching a live band (and not just in Aberdeen I might add), and thats where cover bands come in. However, I also feel there can be an element of "originality' when covering someone else's songs too. I played in a few original bands from my teens to my mid twenties and as happens with many never reached a level I'd have liked. Boooo!! haha! Now, in my thirties and I do play covers but always try and put my own mark on them. I also still make my own original music in the confines of my own "studio". I do find it amusing with the amount if stick folks get for being in cover bands tho! I dont know why musicians playing original stuff have such a dislike towards cover bands? Some sort of superiority complex? I dunno. Its not gonna stop me having a good time tho!

Someones got an issue with cover bands?!

Bumpety Bump! Still on the hunt for one of these rare monsters.

Already have a wanted Ad on BassChat. They seem to be a rare beast!! I can't for the life of me guess why I have nearly 100 views but no bites? Why view the post if "you" don't have what Im after? The thread title is pretty clear! Im just frustrated!!
