2025 SE Bass Basheroonie! Sunday 9/11/25 *CONFIRMED*

I hope you all had a great time. Now, I’ve got the popcorn and the liquid refreshment to hand and I’ve cleaned my spectacles - bring on the photos! -
That reminds me of a gig I did a few months ago. Tribute band on a decent large stage outside in a park somewhere in West London I think. For some reason, we'd not loaded the drummer's stool/throne into van. When we looked in the band dressing room/marquee, the band the night before had accidentally left behind a single piece of equipment... which happened to be a drum stool. Very weird coincidence, but one that we were grateful for!

Recently acquired and cleaned and sorted by myself. Its a phenomenonal amp. So much power, but also so much tone shaping with the 3 presets, eq band eq, and eq tilt dial. Dual compressor which is very good. Mixable valve and solid state preamp. Fx in and out, with adjustable volume dial. Xlr out. Really is top notch, everything works perfectly. Also comes with original receipt and manual. Only selling as my van has been written of and my car is a 2 seater so I can't transport it, so I need to swap it or buy something I can fit in the car. Also comes with dolly trolley. Definitely a classic and collectors item. This is in great condition. If it doesn't sell, I'll just take the head out, rack it, and get 2 smaller cabs. Need the funds to buy a smaller modular rig, so not really up for swaps unless it's something like a squier 40th bass, sire bass etc. Collection Leyland Lancashire

Ditto. Deleted my FB account back in 2017. Never had X, Instagram, Snapchat etc (I’m a few years too old for all that). I suspect I’d be better connected / better publicised if I did bother with social media but I can’t be @r$ed frankly. -

Based on the role of bass and there's no denying Jaco's talent,I'm not sure his style of playing as impressive as it was was what bass needed. Looking at what came before during and after I dare to suggest that James Jamerson's style of playing was more "useful" to bass and popular music in general. As controversial as that may sound. Just to clarify that I'm not a Jaco hater. Jamerson was an influence for Jaco and I can see why. -

Ohio is exactly the song for these times. Well done for playing it.

Wasn't feeling the gig. I made the mistake of not eating anything before the gig. This was a multi band gig. We played from 5:00-6:00. Well attended ticketed event , $35.00. Part of the problem was the room . Huge room on the marina ( Lake Michigan)with extremely high ceiling and lots of glass. Great lighting with smoke but the stage sound was not good. The amp provided was SWR cabs a 15" and a 4 10s. I stood right in front of the rig and couldn't hear a thing. Not much coming from my monitor either. Our band leader/ front person stayed engaged and positive with the crowd. Daryl

Loving the double-compressor approach, I bet the rig sounds really nice. A bit off topic but I have never seen that SFX pedal before, can't find any info on it either 🤓 and it looks pretty cool.

ACS Custom. Not cheap, but bloody good. I put off getting some for years, after having sworn by the Christmas tree type ones (Etymotic ER-20's), but decided to finally take the plunge and get some moulded ones. They're simply head & shoulders above the other "off the shelf" ones. Initially went for the 20dB filters, found them a bit too effective, so got some 17dB filters, which are perfect. Tried some Alpines, I found them fiddly and didn't sit in my ears very well. ACS Custom Earplugs

Nice job Dave. Great crowd and great looking venue. You guys sound very tight in the video. I listened to both clips with earbuds. Daryl

I have a GK Legacy 800 112 combo. Sounds great. Very portable. Very powerful at 400w stand alone and 800 with extension cab. If I was buying again, I think I would go for the Fusion 800 instead for the Tube Preamp section. Legacy is a shade under 15kg and the Fusion is a little heavier at about 16kg. Also have 115, 210, 212 and 410 options.

I have a checklist to make sure i never forget anything. I started it because i forgot my Glam Rock boots at one of our earlier gigs and had to wear black trainers but it did feel weird not wearing them 🤩 Glad it turned out ok in the end tho and that's the main thing. Dave

Evening kids! Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone who attended. @prowla and I sorted out the fundamentals and after settling out our expenses for hall hire/food, we made a £75.00 profit, which I'll pay into COATs charity when I'm there on Tuesday. Disappointingly, we overran on the presentations, so round two of 'What's That Bass?' was shelved. Next year maybe. As there was a low amount of donations for the raffle, this was parked too. We did see a Behringer pedal got left behind (this was a raffle donation), so if it's OK Paul (@prowla) will pop that up in the classifieds here. All in all, a fun day. Home now. Glass of red incoming! Until 2026, best to all! Paul -
