All options in one and mysteriously still for sale.

I've met the seller - he has really excellent taste in bass guitars. Definitely worth checking this one out I would say.

Wonderful gig @ one of our fav' venues All Saints church Shillington Saxon), most of the village turn up! Also they provide a hot meal...gig heaven...ha

 

 

A hot meal and an appreciative audience, that's what it all boils down to in the end!

I’ve never liked rats.

Same

I've tried a LOT of them, I'm still not entirely satisfied. 

I'm currently using a combination of Le Bass, Hot Wax and a Darkglass B3k but am not getting what I want.

My very early ABM500EvoRc decided to give up the ghost on me tonight, with a puff of smoke and the delightful smell of electrical burning, halfway through the first set of a gig. One stroke of luck, before the gig I was going to take my Darkglass Microtubes X ultra off my little pedal board and put my EBS Sheehan pedal back on but decided I couldn’t be bothered  to faff about. I don’t usually go through the PA for smaller gigs, but luckily I was able to use the Darkglass as a DI box to bail me out. 

Definitely worth contacting @Ashdown Engineering they are really helpful and can usually get you sorted.

That's really nice 👍

and also Ruth Goller of Melt Yourself Down and (very differently) SKYLLA

Melt Yourself Down have some very bass driven tunes. Excellent stuff 👍

I'm still tempted! The trouble is I don't think I have any pedals that you haven't already tried 🤣

There are some fantastic skinny string players too amongst the girls.

 

I saw Nita Strauss with Alice Cooper recently. Wow! She is a fantastic musician!

I recently discovered Minnie Marks - she plays guitar and foot drums and has an amazing voice too.

Awesome!

This is what it amuses me to call my whiteboard.

 

I was really impressed with the sounds you were making with this, obviously the playing was a big part of it but every time I heard that synth pedal it made me want one!

I think the first bass I bought was a Washburn Force ABT bass in red with the lighting crackle design on it. No idea what happened to it but I know I bought it from Andertons in the late 80's when they were in their original building.

 

I've also has a couple of Washburn AB20 acoustic basses. They were great basses but to me were a bit pointless if not fretless.

I've got a crackle red B20, and a plain (but aged) red B10 with a B20 neck and bridge.

My first bass I owned was a B2, then I had two B10s.

Whose little battery powered amp was this? I ought to remember but my brain's gone blank!

 

 

@Mottlefeeder's acoustic Ibanez 5 string sounded lovely through it. A perfect pair for backing up an otherwise acoustic set.

 

I have a feeling the amp is also @Mottlefeeder's

That’s a heck of a lot of bass for that money 👍

 

Can't see this hanging around long!

What a handsome couple of fellas! 😁

Great to see you all, I think that's the busiest I've ever seen it.

I can only echo the sentiment - biggest thanks to the team for putting it on and providing the food that makes it so great.

Cheers dude!  Think I’m all spent for this month though 😂

(ssshhh, bring it just in case…)

I'm sure we can work something out 😉

I have an EHX Bass Blogger im getting rid of that I reckon would work well, even has 2 outputs (dry and distorted)

Can bring to the Bash on Sunday?

I like compression, if set correctly it allows me to really dig in without drowning out the rest of the band. I recently picked up a Darkglass Super Symmetry and I love it - my pick playing in particular has been massively helped.

Correct - just to withdraw them 🙂

One Digitech RP80 donated to the cause then.

Would a Digitech RP80 multi effects box be suitable for the raffle? Happy to donate if so 👍

Happy for my TCE combo to be part of the dataset too 👍

Yes I was planning to bring it. The trouble is since I got it out to bring I’m enjoying playing it again!!!!

I'd love to try it out - I really want an 8 but this makes 3 basses for sale that I want right now!

Dammit. I have a matching P-bass to this.

Please don't burn it! I'll find a way before that needs to happen...

What kind of trades would you be interested in?

I would definitely file open the nut slot first - I've had one break before by not doing so.
