Hi, I'm Phil and I play bass for a start-up electro-acoustic originals band called Fi Channon and her band Wilderness Road. We seek a cajon playing percussionist who can also take over the bass from me on songs where I'm playing mandolin or guitar. We currently rehearse weekly in Camberley and Twyford in Berkshire (in alternating turns). We started performing live in November 2016 and continue to make cameo appearances as support/acoustic night slots whilst we build up the set. We have gigs in the pipeline, and our style of singer/songwriter originals with an Americana feel, is going down well. Age, gender and race are of no relevance.

We've got loads of back copies of [b]Bass Guitar Magazine[/b] to either recycle or give away for free. If you want them, come and get them! Thanks, Phil

[quote name='Alanbass' timestamp='1461241703' post='3032791'] Anyone had any recent experience with Bass Gear? Have sent a few emails to them but no response at all. Will think about giving them a call sometime but to be honest a bit put off by the lack of response. Appreciate any feedback from other basschatters. [/quote] Hi Alan. We've checked across all six of our email accounts that are active, and we can't trace you (assuming you are using the name Alan) at all! Please call, or email us on [email protected] we'd love to help

I used a Mono guitar gigbag for my headless Marleaux Betra In fact it was a Mono Dual so I had a spare headless (Spirit by Steinberger) in the second compartment. Very snug and protected. I hope that helps. Phil

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1452440315' post='2949936'] Your web domain name seems to have gone Walkabout - Have you got a Strategy to Rectify this? [/quote] I'm afraid we are suffering temporary problems with our server hosts. We are doing some routine maintenance that they recommend but it keeps tripping an automatic block. We are pulling our hair out (what's left!). I'm sure it'll be sorted very soon. Meanwhile, the UK distributor of Mesa Boogie has just found us a couple more of these heads. We should have them in a couple of days, along with more of the lightweight Mesa cabs

All our new lightweight Mesa heads and cabs have now been sold. We hope to see fresh supplies in late February 2016.

[b]Update[/b] We are now out of these cabs and are now down to our last head. The situation around the UK may be similar, and new stocks are not expected until February.

Yes, we have these new heads in. They just arrived yesterday. We also have the lightweight 12" cab to go with it. http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product-category/bass-amps-and-cabs/mesa/

Route One of all options is to PJB distributor: http://www.synergydistribution.co.uk/Welcome.html Phil

Stu has 30 people enthralled as I write. They must be, they're not moving out to the free bar!

Checkout the Bass Collection Precisions.I've got a Bruce Thomas signature myself. Top basses! Phil

All sorted now. bagsieblue has ten years of bass reading material arriving tomorrow!

We have 39 old copies of Bass Player, 34 copies of Bassist and umpteen copies of Bass Guitar Magazine to give to anyone who cares to call in and collect (or pay to have shipped). Otherwise they'll soon become pulp fiction! Cheers, Phil

No numbers from the master of Twang?

Ever so slightly off topic, but for any headless bass players out there, I just wanted to say that I use a Dual [u]Guitar [/u]Mono and it saves a lot of room.

Could it inspire Apple to enter the instrument amplification market?

It's what you get when you pay the photographer peanuts. Phil

I have now been replaced. The band found a new bass player, but thanks to all who took an interest. Phil
