Treble_Clef_Sucks Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 I'm the proud owner of a dean fretless bass. Not quite sure the model, but its got some nice EMGHZ. See that bass? Grr I wish it were mine. What am I stuck with? A lousy Kay Bass, a beat up school owned instrument nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Sweet Willie_ Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 ...an Ernie Ball fretless StingRay5, black finish, black pickguard (and an EBS MultiComp pedal and a Boss Bass Chorus CEB-3 -- although I guess I'm not really a "proud owner" of my effects pedals, as much as I like them and as rarely as I use them). I certainly like the rest of my gear, but I want to do electronics upgrades on my Carvin and want better amplification than what I currently have. Interesting thread -- the "proud of" concept is a different way than I usually think about my gear. spreadluv Fanboy? Why, yes! Nordstrand Pickups and Guitars. Messiaen knew how to parlay the funk.

Scoot Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Me next!! I'm proud of my Ibanez 3005ESOL, Warwick Corvette (4-string), Ashdown RPM1 pre, Crown MT1200 power amp, Roger Meyer VoodooBass distortion pedal, Boss CEB-3 Chorus, and my Warwick 411-Pro cabinet (which sounds better than any Ampeg cab I've ever played!)

davebrownbass Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 I'm the proud owner of: 1956 Fender Champ amp (exactly like the one Lou Diamond Phillips wore in "La Bamba") 1956 Fender Lap Steel Now, if "hawaiian" music would just become popular again (Where's Don Ho when you need him)and if I could just learn to play the damn thing. Oh yeah. I'm the proud owner of a program for "Man of La Mancha" that has me listed as "Bass: David Brown" and later: "Set Design: Lou Diamond Phillips" We went to the same college back when we were both nobody's and worked on the same production. However, I didn't know him and he didn't know me. We were both just working stiffs puttin' in our time. Now, it's only ME that's the nobody.

BTW... did you ever get the pickguard you ordered? DXYeah, I know. My Jbass is in GC right now, but I just have to get the money, now. Regarding to the pickguard, the seller is a jerk, but at least she cleared it up. OK, I sent the money to her on January 5th. I still dont have it(1/27). But, don't worry, I just got a notice that something is at the post office, so I'm pretty/very sure that's it. But, when sould I leave feedback? Should I do it after I get my bass and put it on? Or when I get it and rate it on what it looks like right when I get it? Thanks danymal, you rock!

Thanks danymal, you rock!You can leave feedback when you get the item... make sure it is what you ordered, and there are no defects or blemishes that weren't advertised... just don't flame her too bad if she at least made an attempt to correct the initial problem though, because feedback works both ways. I would make a comment about the slow shipping and poor communication, though, but unless the pickguard is unacceptable, give her at least a neutral... negative is generally for those who out-and-out lie about their item, or don't ever ship etc... It's great that your bass is almost in your hands... only a matter of time...

JDL Posted January 28, 2003 Author Share Posted January 28, 2003 I was thinking of saying something like this: "Some miscommunication, slow shipping, but product is good." And of course the last part is depending on how the product really is.................
