Yes it was a good laugh and talked to a good number of people and the volume was fine. Stands round about me where all good company so all in all a good show.

I give up.

I really should read this stuff before I post it. Turned round and you where gone and I didn't see you the rest of the day which was a pity.

Surprised you missed me I was right next to Martin. Tried very hard not to be away from the stand but can't be there all day so might have missed you.

Yes he noticed your name on the room list when I dropped it off.

The guy was very pleasant so I would get in touch with him for a chat.

I spoke to the P&D guy about it for a while and I don't think they both work the same way as far as I understood it. The guy I had with me to play demos was equally impressed with it. I was surprised how well it translated all the notes even when played at speed or slapped. I was genuinely impressed with how well it work.

So just to recap the prize draw. 25% discount voucher on ACG Custom Series Bass. East Tone UK 2 band pre-amp. 3 Hipshot bridges. 4 Hipshot Detuners Dunlop goodies. SIT strings and Tee Shirts. Basschat Polo Shirts. iBass Magazine subscriptions. Goodies from Armstrong Pickups. Bass Guitar Magazine should be on board as well. On top of all that we have Steve Lawson playing set and will be about to have a chat all weekend. Mountains of gear to try out in a relaxed atmosphere. Not bad for a tenner Sunday ticket. Not bad for a tenner.

Tried the P&D one on the Sunday morning before the show opened and was really impressed with it. Did not try the Tec Amp version because I did not see it until the break down.

Excellent time today. Thanks to everyone that dropped by. Found the volume at my end of the hall to be pretty good I think the volume was higher at the other end according to people I spoke to. Place was really busy despite the negative comments which was very encouraging for tomorrow and future shows.

SIT goodies arrived today as well. 6 Tee-Shirts and 8 sets of strings to give away.

Many thanks to Hipshot for this very generous donation to the prize draw of rthe Moffat Bass Bash. [url="http://www.hipshotproducts.com"]http://www.hipshotproducts.com[/url] Anyone that wins one of these excellent prizes will have something worth more than the weekend ticket.

Thanks.

Obbm could you wing past my stand there is a cable I need made up specifically for a bass in the works. Cheers Alan

[quote name='Bassjon' timestamp='1424780251' post='2700310'] I assumed no such thing. I just said I don't like show off bass players. Again, same thing. Where did I say he can't groove? I just don't like show off....... oh forget it! You're right I'm wrong. There, happy? Sorry all for having an opinion that isn't the same as yours. [/quote] Was not directed at you more a general comment on the subject which I have heard many times. But I guess bass shows are not for you then.

I always assumed they where more than capable of both wither I had seen it or not. When you have that kind of facility on a bass I am sure the ability to play what is regarded as normal bass I am sure they can all manage. However getting a profile does require a degree of showing of which is fine with me. If I could play like Billy I am sure I would.

If you have not seen Jah Wobble you are in for a treat. I have never understood bass players that assume because someone has great technique and can play at a million miles an hour that they also can't groove or play in the context of a song and support the song just makes no sense to me.

Hipshot goodies on their way for the prize draw.

Still a few tickets for the weekend avilable.

Any news on wither your mate is coming along.

Another excellent company on board for the bash. Happy to announce that Aguilar will be send me the following kit to demo at the show. TH500 head with two SL112 cabs and a pedal board. This is curtesy of Barnes and Mullins UK distributor. Might be some goodies to give away as well.

Hope to have this pedal at the Moffat Bass Bash just waiting for confirmation from Westside Distribution.

Very much of the opinion that you use it of lose it. It is the only bass specific show in the UK it deserves to be supported even if there are a couple of perceived problems. The noise is what it is. Every music event of this type I have ever been to has been noisy it is the nature of the beast. The last guitar show I went to was wall to wall shred which I assume to be the guitar equivalent of slap. Not been to a drum show so I can only imagine they are not exactly quiet. Lots of interesting gear going to be there. Personally I have seen enough Fender basses to last this and the next life time. I have no idea why some big names are not there maybe negative posting about the event has something to do with it maybe,maybe not.

Bass Guitar Magazine has kindly agreed to support the event with some merchandise for the prize draw.

It is indeed. Are you going to make it to the Bash this year a good year to come down with Steve Lawson and stuff to give away.
