[quote name='ronnus' post='44420' date='Aug 12 2007, 01:01 PM']I visited SC Edinburgh about a year and a half ago (guitarist in tow) with the intention of buying a £300 Ashdown EB Combo, the bass guy (Doug, IIRC, I suspect it was our very own Douggy, please accept my profuse apologies if it wasn't!) tried reasonably hard to sell me a grands worth of Ampeg instead, as SC apparently had 'em cheaper than anywhere else etc.... When I eventually convinced him that all I was after was the Ashdown, he asked me what I played, took a nice Fiesta Red US Jazz bass off the wall, plugged it into the Ashdown, and proceeded to play it himself for ten minutes without offering me a shot! After my guitarist and I got bored of playing spot the bassline, we left, and I spent my money elsewhere. [/quote]
haha that would have been me , as i am the only doug ( there can be only one ) , must have been a slow day . didnt sell you the ampeg damn must have been off my game
well anyway , sorry for boreing you , although i feel ten minuets is somewhat of an embellishment
