SOLD ON EBAY! Who wants a Rock Beast setup then? For sale here we have [s]my lovely Peavey NitroBass amp - 450 watts and its nicely matched [u]AMP SOLD! JUST CAB AVAILABLE - 410 TX cab - 700 watts at 8 ohms.[/u][/s] Both are in decent nick - the usual minor battle scars from gigging, but nothing too major. Big fat sound. Nothing beats American made Peavey gear for sturdy, reliable rockin' kit. Both amp and cab are solid as the proverbial rock which means they'll definitely survive being thrown about in the back of the van. [s]CAB £120 + Post[/s] [b]I may even be open a trade if we don't want to dirty our hands with money. Lemme know whatcha got...what's the worst that can happen?[/b] I can post 'em, but that'll be extra. These puppies ain't light. Based in Halesowen in Wild West Midlands. Feel free to come over and try 'em out, but bring biscuits. -

Hofner BeatleBass? I've got the budget version and its nice and light, short scale and sounds great. Pretty cheap from Thomann too...

Well, I survived Heather - mainly due to the rather scrummy Pie and Chips I scoffed between sets. (Note to self...NEVER eat a big meal in a 10 minute break between sets...) Apart from completely pooching 'My Brother Jake', we played well and I got home intact. If slightly bloated. My next gig is April 12 (The Roadhouse, Birmingham) so if anyone can use it before then, please get in touch for a handover. I'd hate to think people have forgotten about this.... Rushbo x

Sunday Bump

Hearbreaker - Heather 16 03 13 Please let me know if you're stepping up for the BassBaton as space is at a premium in the wagon. If noone throws their hat in the ring, it'll stay at home...

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1362918502' post='2006122'] This doesn't sound too bad to me [media]http://youtu.be/z91l_lPz1oc[/media] [/quote] Luscious. The little root/fifth/octave dealio at 1.44 ish is worth the price of admission alone.

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1363032991' post='2007419'] And just remember... A silent audience is okay... as long as they're not moving towards you... [/quote] Amen to that. We played a Biker gig in West Brom on Saturday. Decent sized crowd, nice room...all the good stuff. We did two sets - 32 songs. I'd estimate that there was silence between the first 20, polite applause for the next 6 and the remainder were cheered as if we were The Who. This may have had something to do with Beer. At the end of the night there was a queue of people wanting to say hi, shake hands and tell us how we rocked. This was all very lovely, but a little indication whilst we were actually rocking would have been nice! Still...nice folks (if a little quiet) and we're going back in June. And at least now I know what to expect! Oh yeah...BassBaton anyone?

[quote name='Jimryan' timestamp='1363032420' post='2007404'] I think the only thing I can say in regards to this gig Ian...is good luck, whether it be the natives, the pub or a toilet related incident...good luck :-p [/quote] Cheers. Will drawn up. Credit card maxed out. Parting 'gift' for the boss ...I'm ready for Heather.

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1363030708' post='2007355'] Nah, Heather is fine. ...just make sure you go to the toilets in pairs... [/quote] Great advice..."Hey guys, I'm just off to the loo - anybody want to join me?" I'll take my chances with the natives, ta!
-
But seriously. Last bump before Ebay.
-
Mummy I'm scared. Heather sounds frightening. I might just put the BassBaton in a taxi and rock gently back and forth in my 'special room' until Sunday.
-
Gah! Where's the make up department when you need it?
-
Hey all, If your in or around Heather on saturday, check us out - we're a Paul Rodgers/Free/Bad Co trib. It's also your chance to grab the Bass Baton - lemme know if you fancy it. The Crown, 23 Main Street, Heather LE67 2QP 9.00pm

£295 - Brandoni Acoustic Bass Classical Sized with pick-up
rushbo replied to Keefyboy's topic in Basses For Sale
Welcome Keefyboy! I love Brandoni instruments - this looks like a great example. Have a bump for a cool lookin' bass -
Sunday night, post gig bumpette

The Bass remains in the Wild West Midlands then... Anyone gonna pick this beastie up? It got an outing in sunny West Bromwich last night and is probably on the way to The Crown Inn, 23 Main St, Heather, Leicestershire, E67 2QP, next Saturday. PLEASE let me know if you are gonna pick it up there as I'm hoping to travel light next week and if no one throws their hat in the ring, it'll stay at home. C'mon people, this thing needs to get moving!

That's rather yummy. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1362949655' post='2006699'] Far too radical for Fender to seriously consider putting into production - after all, they've got a (conservative) reputation to keep.. [/quote] ...can I be the first to say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it...?"

Nice work fella. The headstock pre your hard work looks dee-sgusting!

Hi all Quick plug for my gig and your chance to grab the Bass baton... The Bass Baton will be at The New Talbot in West Bromwich on Saturday March 9th - my band are called Heartbreaker and we're a Paul Rodgers tribute, so if you like Classic Rawk, come on over. It would be lovely (and slightly intimidating for a Bassist...) to see a few of you there. Rushbo Here's a lovely poster with some more details...

The BassChat Baton meets his Black Country Buddies.... Anyone stepping forward to pick it up on Saturday...?

Right then. Since 1986... Jangly Pop a la REM Chicago Blues Hair Metal Muso Pop (It Bites, that sort of thing) Pre Madchester baggy Indie Avant Garde (Can/Faust) Electronica Psychedelic Folk Rock Rock Acoustic Duo Heinz 57 covers/functions band Blues (again) Americana Pop Rock (a la Crowded House) Country Folk Classic Rock tribute It's good to have a broad palette.
