Nice to meet a few of you guys at the show. My ears have just about stopped ringing. Lots of great gear on show. As others have said the volume was , and always is an issue at these shows. Its never likely to change I guess. The 15 minute time slots to try and demo stuff became pretty hard work when so much was going on around you, most of the time we just banged in the earplugs to ride the storm, certainly a real struggle to talk to people and a little too much non stop self indulgent twangy twiddles going on from some stands. Great to catch up with some familiar faces and meet some new ones. Had a good chat with walman about bass guitars suprisingly, and synth keyboard pedals as we both fancy ourselves as tap dancing bass players. Shame as an exhibitor that you dont get to see the acts, but thats life ! On the whole i had a great time with john east and alan, always a great laugh irrespective of what the shows are like. Dave

There will of course be one or two bass guitars available. You can take the chance to try out an acg at the same time Dave

Hope you guys and gals don't forget to come and say Hi to us on the stands.... Myself (EAD) Alan (ACG) and John East (East electronics) are all on the same stand..... Come for a chat !

To be honest I was astounded how good this looked at moffat considering what you paid for it. This will be Well worth the effort im sure. Alans original 01 pre amps are now available for the first time and would be a great upgrade. Dave

Spotted your cheeky song title.....:-) "Dave Perry playing with himself with the jam band"

Nice one Matt !

On with the bassyokey.....!! Me doing the first turn with the band....great little song called Gravity, nice and mellow number Peter takes to the stage Gary Grochla Rich (Ou7shined) Matt playing his amazing Gibson RD active mad as toast bass (just edited this as I had the wrong one......) Mike (tauzero) And Mrs tauzero got involved and did some singing. Dave

Had a whoppingly good time......scared myself to death coming off the snow covered motorway great beer with some top people, great curry, more beer, stroked lots of woody bits..... Basyokey worked really well I think. It got lots of people up playing that maybe would not have done otherwise, great response from people there, very supportive to the players. Shaun and the band are great guys to play with......hopefully others will post lots of photos.........cos I took bugger all Very tired now......roll on the next one...

Arrived safe. Sat in the bar with a beer. Fair bit of snow here. Drive safe !

Just strap Matt to the roof.... See you in the bar Rich

Dont know what you mean Mike (he says feverishly updating the web site.....) Well spotted and thanks.....see you in the bar for several small Shandy's....

Putting this up here on behalf of a band I know. Great set of guys, very relaxed mature band Looking for new bass player Two guitars, vocals, Drums. Playing lots of varied stuff, but all good easy listening familiar crowd pleasing songs. Own rehearsal space Gigging typically 2 times a month (with the odd extra gig) The band has been together for about 10 years and lost the last bass player as he moved away.

[quote name='munkonthehill' timestamp='1324173770' post='1471568'] Oi Perry, theres still seems to be a discrepancy in the gear section of that site!!!! [/quote] Updated..... All Hail the ale......

Starting adding the songs chosen and names on the bassyokey web page. [url="http://www.moffatbassbash.co.uk/"]http://www.moffatbassbash.co.uk/[/url] Get your names and songs over to me as soon as possible !! Just putting 2 songs per player at the moment, as I think that will be more than enough with the numbers we have. Don't forget, the band is with us all day so you can get up and jam and have a warm up through a song with them in the morning if you fancy, or just want to check you have the right key worked out. Dave

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1321873837' post='1443836'] They originally booked Pink Floyd but due to an administrative error he turned up instead. [/quote] Explains why the punters had more interest in my deep shag pile coat rather than the music.....

[quote name='Shawman' timestamp='1321642492' post='1441629'] with the knowledge of some people on here it could probably be fixed with an old G string and a leatherman [/quote] You sir, will fit right in....... .

Trace used MDF for a long period of time......hence the vast weight of the older stuff

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1321149736' post='1435963'] you're still barking up the wrong bassist. [/quote] Indeed..... I only pressed the buttons Stephen....can't claim the credit for the wind up...although it took you long enough to spot it...... For clarity and removal of any legal backlash - I can categorically state with out any hesitation that the bass indeed a Rick.....I think...well, ya know it looks kinda like one......

Had a good time chatting to people - got to see all of the acts as our stand was up in the balcony (I was with ACG and John east). Nice to catch up with people again and always good to meet some new faces. Dave

[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1320141631' post='1422717'] What cabinet material are you using, David? [/quote] Its very high quality void free baltic Birch ply, 12mm with internal bracing. The cabs are CNC produced and then sent out for coating.
