Second dibs if he doesn't collect

I was even in Grantham this sunday

So um... I've been playing various sorts of styles of music from Funk to Rock, to Post Hardcore and Metal since I was 16. I have always loved playing bass but have made the move to acoustic guitar and now electric guitar. I'm used to a church worship team set up, but wanted to make myself "available" and see what else is out there in terms of paid work. Or just to see what the music market needs are... Give me a holla if you have an offer. Jarryd

I am another one of the happy and satisfied customers. Great guy to deal with and I must say that the packaging was a work of art... I didn't want to take the picks out of the envelope. Love your work mate

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1335961812' post='1638634'] Best intro thread of the year so far PS Welcome! [/quote] I'm hoping that's a good thing... Being a guitarist, I'm not often sure if people are taking the mick or actually being humorous?!?!

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1335961382' post='1638617'] Ahh, I see. So your a musician, not just a guitarist? [/quote] You are correct sir!

[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1335896179' post='1637730'] Hi, Honest Guy, Welcome to BC! I trust you'll enjoy. Thanks for mentioning the Reverend. I was just looking into their basses, as they seemed low-priced for the quality. GAS is really for bassists only. You guitards just buy good gear. We on the sLow End make terrible mistakes all the time, and don't realise before it's too late. Nice though, with 37 basses on the walls. Saves on expensive art 'n' stuff. best, bert [/quote] Reverends are actually phenomenal guitars for the price... I can (literally) move from a telecaster type sound to a strat type sound, to an SG, all with the flick of a switch or the turn of a knob on my guitar. I absolutely love it!!! As for this site - I just bought an amp that was found on here! Bloody cracking piece of gear!!! See you around Jarryd

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1335957445' post='1638518'] A guitarist? But....... Basschat? Welcome to the show! [/quote] Thanks mate... I was just told that this website was FAR better than any guitar forum, as bassists tend to be the ones who pay attention to the details that nobody else really cares about P.S - I started out on bass and am still a passionate bassist at heart.

Sup Stu I play with the one they call "Ben Jamin"... He's commented on here somehwhere. I'm based at New Life Church in Lincoln, but we've recently started a band and aim to achieve stuff... Not too sure what that is yet, or what it'll look like. We're just enjoying making the noise, known as music :-) Yourself?

Thanks for the WELCOME, guys! You even inspired the status :-)

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1335884962' post='1637535'] He's lying - GAS stands for "Gear Acquisition Syndrome" - stick around and you'll soon be "suffering" with it along with most of us.. [/quote] Thanks Mate! I know what it means... I've just never "suffered" from it. Although, there have been a few items that have caught my attention. Pity the bank balance doesn't always allow me to live the elaborate life I wish I could Sigh...

[quote name='Clarky72' timestamp='1335880252' post='1637440'] Hey mate, welcome to Basschat. You'll soon want GAS, the Gong Appreciation Society is a very elite club [/quote] I do love a good Gong! "Sounds" right up my street

Thanks Liam... I'll be sure to upload some pics. Not too sure I'll need the cab, now that I have the Fender Hot Rod - it's pretty dam loud!

Sup people of the basschat world. After a week on the site, I thought it would be a nice idea to greet the bass world and share about my life and music and hopefully, get a wee bit of feedback with your thoughts etc. So... I live in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. I play rhythm guitar in a band made up of 5 individuals. I can't quite name the style but it's a mash of funk, jazz, indy and post hardcore... It sounds beautiful and ever so different I play a Reverend Double Agent - by far the best guitar in it's price bracket. Recently bought a Fender HotRod Deluxe, ltd edition I have a black cable ...and a Blackstar HT-5 on the side for good measure! That's about it really! Love the site and look forward to finding out what it means to have G.A.S?!?! Peace

I suggest you just go for it man. Get a business loan, some backing from the government and flipping do it!

What a fantastic bloke to deal with. Luke I would suggest starting up your own music shop if you ever have the chance. Customer service up to this point has been tremendous. 28/04/2012 - Got the amp today! HAD to go to a nearby music store to try it out with one of their "cheaper" guitars. It's an absolute beauty and I could not be happier with my purchase! A MASSIVE THANK YOU TO LUKE!!! You're a scholar and a gentleman!
