Bassman Sam

Very sad news. Sam will be missed by the BC community. RIP.

That looks amazing. I'm so glad that you are going ahead with Nick's design. Looking forward to buying a few tickets.

Bastards!!!

No. We deserved it. 

Just to fess up, the first gig I played  Badge  and various Beatles songs was at my School disco,1969. We played during the DJ's break and everyone there were shouting " Band Off, Disco On".

First song I ever played live on stage was C’mon Everybody, the Sex Pistols version of Eddie Cochran song. I was 16, on lead vocals and lead guitar.

 

It was a disaster.
 

 

Why , Lozz?

I was chatting to the guitarist from the first band I ever played in recently. He reminded me of the first number we ever played, live on stage,  when we were 17 years old. Badge, by Cream. What's yours?

You have made a massive contribution to Basschat over the years. I remember chatting to you for ages when you worked in Dawson back in the day. Just so happy that this wonderful community got together to make a difference to your family and Iris. Well deserved Buddy.

I am a bit mystified why anyone would seek out this chap to build a bass for them. Even if he actually made and delivered the basses as agreed.

 

I can only surmise from his support for Reform UK that, in some way only he knows, it's overweight workshy transgender violent criminals on benefits who arrived illegally in this country by boat that are retarding his progress in building basses and fulfilling his obligations.

 

I'd value one of his instruments at about £200. And that's £200 of someone else's money, it certainly wouldn't be mine.

I like the cut of your gib. Made me laugh out loud  

I'm proud to be part of this amazing community. Well done everyone. 

Sire for sure.  Or a Bass Collection. Both give great bang for the bucks. Right in your price range. 

Thanks for the update Andy, here's hoping that everything will be doable.  Iris deserves it.  Everything crossed for you and the family. 

So proud of our amazing community. Keep on everyone. 

Rob. I want to have your babies. 😘😘😘

It's not dust on my eyes. Sobbing my heart out. 

£4675 so far. Bump for one last push.

Pay day for many tomorrow.  Up it to 5k @Clarky. Go on. Go on. Go on. Go on.

Just chipped in. Well done @Clarky for kicking this off. All the best to @AndyTravis and Iris. So please to be a part of this fabulously  community. 

I'm just surprised that he's still breathing,  considering the number of people who has ripped off. I can't believe that the police haven't taken any action against him. Total scumbag. 

I photograph every bass I have owned,  including serial numbers and uploaded them to the cloud. If my phone,  computer  etc goes down,  I can still access them.
