I have a black bass guitar for sale, along with an amp.
I bought both a few years ago but havent played them in awhile, and I am in need of $$ for a new car.
They both are in EXCELLENT condition. The bass is a 4 string (not sure what the brand is), and the amp is a fairly good size. They are both currently at another residence, so I would have to go get them.
Bass would come with carrying case sling for the guitar, along with a guitar strap as well. Bass has no stickers, ect. Both bass & amp look brand new.
I have no way of getting to you, so if you wanted to see either the amp or guitar, you would have to come to Fort Belvoir.


If you would like the guitar seperately, the price is $500
If you would like the amp seperately, the price is $400.

The picture isnt excatly of the guitar, but it is very similar.

If interested with questions, ect. please email me.

Again, I need money for a new car so the price is set at $900.
Thank you.
 
I may move -

ROFL!

that reminds me of the youtube video "drinking out of cups" (you know the computer generated lizard that's voiced over by someone apparently tripping their balls off)
 
It *does* have that meaning but I think here in the states we usually use it in the sense of suicide bombers. (From the World War II Japanese suicide pilots). Also in the sense of someone diving down on you in a reckless dangerous way.
 
This is my favorite at the moment.

Teen Chooses Pot over ENGL Powerball and Krank Cabinet - $2100


I gave my step son an ENGL Powerball Amp and a Krank 1/2 Stack Cabinet. I'm told this is an excellent set up for just about anything but most excellent for hard rock music. Our deal was he gets the amp and cabinet and my 100% support of his musical aspirations including guitars and a car to go to college with but only if he gets good grades and stays off drugs. Apparently it's more important for him to get high so his loss is your gain. Now he's walking and ampless so I hope the buzz was worth it. The amp and cabinet are in a sound proof music room I built for him to practice in. You can try the amp before you buy it as loud as it will go. Don't feel sorry for him. This comes with fair warning after multiple infractions. Believe me, the pot's the tip of the iceburg. This is a teaching moment and he has to learn his choices have consequences.

That is actually quite a deal for that rig. I would have killed for a step dad like that back in the day. My parents didn't buy me anything music related.
 
Is it really so difficult to use proper capitalization? Punctuation? How about some basic grammar? I admit that I make my mistakes, but if I am posting an ad to CL looking for musicians, you would think this would be the one time to run your text through a grammar checker, or a second and third set of eyes.

me are my friend are both guitarist and we are looking to start something up.we was thinking about bar music.we are big into metallica,megadeth,motley crue,poison,skid row ect ect.we are kinda lookin to do like i guess u would all it hair metal.just mostly things girls between the ages old 26 and 35 like.cuz come on isnt that y most of us started playing music for the chicks
 
This one may actually appeal to some ... and you know who you are!

Looking to replace our current bassist and bring some new flair to the band. You need to :1.Drink alot 2. love to chase girls around at shows 3. bring alot of attention in a negative fashion our way and 4. play some bass

Sounds like my band :D

Well, dude, you had me interested to hire you until the last sentence. In my band, it's Sam Adams, or you can hit the road. Oh, and also we have no "Peavy" equipment, because there was never a "Peavy" brand to buy equipment from.

Hahahahahahaha!!!!!

zomg it's a FENDER
at least he was nice enough to throw in a tuner:hmm:
(in case you're wondering why it's so odd, it's because he's selling a MIM bass)

What made me smilke was that when they talk about needing people with the ability to write music they put breakdowns before choruses and verses. They know what the fun parts are!

Too bad they didn't also mention the importance of being able to play your instrument while headbanging in a deep crab squat position.
 
Well, there's been a couple of auditions that my kid went to where they felt he didn't "fit in", even though his playing is exceptional.

The trouble? He's 6'5", and the auditioneers are all under 5'10". One band had an issue with 'life experience' (they were all in their 20's).

They are still looking for a bass player 6 months later, but phrase their ad thusly to specifically exclude him - "Please be between 19 and 30. Even though at 15, you can play rings around anybody else, we require bandmates with similar ages to our own."

Weird.
Well, I'm sorry that happened to your kid. It's kind of unfair. Personally, I've never really understood the pre-occupation with AGE that so many ameature musicians have. The only time I think it's a legit concern is if a band wants to play at venues that serve alcohol; then the law (at least in my state) requires then to be at least 21 years old. The vast majority of wannabe "rock star" musicians will simply NEVER make it; they cheat themselves out of some good times by trying to be "too cool" for someone outside their age range. I think it's just petty.

"
we are an established hardcore band looking for a new bassist. we need someone who thinks they are a fairly attractive guy. someone who will leave the ladies wanting (like the rest of us). if you are smart then you'll know like the rest of us, that sex sells. you also need to be able to have lots of energy on stage. our old basses was all stiff necked and lame...
we already have several songs written and need you to be able to jump in and hit the ground running and bring your own style to the band. we are all pretty easy going guys and love to mess around and have fun.
our intrests are The Devil Wears Prada, blessthefall, August Burns Red, We Came As Romans, and As I Lay Dying and more.

if this seems like something you are interested in, reply to the email and send me a link to your myspace or facebook so we can judge your hotness. and if we like it, we'll all get together and chill sometime and see where it goes from there. (after that we'll tell you our band name and talk business)

PS we are currently workin for our ep and are looking to be hitting the road by summer of 2010 so we need someone who will be dedicated enough to see things through the good and the bad and is in for the long hall."

I understand the importance of image and everything.... but "send us your facebook link and us guys will judge how attractive you are, then we'll tell you the name of our band?"

God almighty, those would be some narcissistic people to work with.

Not only that but they seem to be focused on the theme "sex sells". I can't imagine many ladies who are into "hardcore". If they were playing dance music I could see that looks would make a difference, but if these guys have any audience at all it is probably a bunch of sweaty teenage boys.
