[quote name='elom' post='6035' date='May 24 2007, 09:02 PM']On the face of it this unit almost looks too good to be true. A multi-effects, amp modeling, tuner, DI box, recording unit for just £85? I've not had the opportunity to try one out and I wondered if anyone here has got one or tried one? I'd be interested in your comments. It doesn't need to be top end pro quality, just good enough to do a job in a pub rock band. Many thanks, Elom[/quote] Hi Elom It's definitely good enough to do a job in a pub rock band and I agree with you that it 'almost looks too good to be true'! I had a B2 for a while and then wanted to make use of the control facility with certain effects, so have just bought a B2.1u which on first testing, I think is even better than the B2 for value and for the range of features it has. I don't think you'll be disappointed, quite the opposite in fact! Nik

Hi Pete, Thought I'd get a feedback thread going for you and thanks for the Rickenfaker parts which arrived yesterday. They're just perfect for what I need to resurrect my old Hondo Ricky copy that I've had since 1977! For anyone who's dealing with or thinking of dealing with Pete, I can vouch for his attention to detail, quick response to messages etc and general good nature! Thanks mate, Nik

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='5491' date='May 23 2007, 11:40 PM']Calm down people. We have had 40 or so express an interest that means 30 will turn up. We still need a venue thats big enough for 30 people + 30 bass rigs + 30 basses (or probably more cos some greedy barstuards have got more than one(people or basses or rigs)). Plus enough A/C power for all the above, plus pedal boards for those that use them. All options are still open so please try and find a venue.[/quote] On that basis, I reckon it's back to ACM or a school or university hall perhaps??

Great collection Rich! But I especially love the look of your Wal! Must get together at a Basschat Bash one day and compare Wals - has yours got all the original electronics? Nik

[quote name='obbm' post='1143' date='May 18 2007, 08:21 AM']We are not going to be able to pick a date to suit everyone. For example I am abroad for first 12 days of September. Also there will possibly be another national bash in mid/late September so we need to avoid clashing with that.[/quote] So, who's free on Boxing Day then and wants a chance to get away fron the in-laws!

[quote name='Mobius' post='1111' date='May 18 2007, 02:39 AM']Not the bank holiday, clashes with Reading Festival![/quote] Good point - how about the following weekend then, early September? Gets Reading and the Bank Hols out of the way and it's just before kids go back to school..

To get this thing moving, we only need to do two things: 1) Set a date 2) Decide on a location So to start us off, I suggest: 1) Sat 25th or Sun 26th August - because it gives us 3 months to organise it and it's a bank holiday so we'd have an extra day to recover! 2) Water Rats Rehearsal Studios in Surrey - went to something there before and it was OK but we'd probably need 2 rooms... Here's a link: [url="http://www.waterrat.co.uk/?gclid=CI6M7LuYlowCFRooEAodfR83eA"]http://www.waterrat.co.uk/?gclid=CI6M7LuYlowCFRooEAodfR83eA[/url] Well that's my 2p worth... Nik

[quote name='obbm' post='532' date='May 17 2007, 04:54 PM']Over the past 18 months a number of people have posted some really nice commenst in my feedback thread. It will be such a shame to lose these. I have retrieved these from BT and would like to put them into a consolidated comment post unless anyone has any objections, or indeed wants to post again.[/quote] Good idea Dave - I'm thinking of doing the same thing myself... Nik

[quote name='nottswarwick' post='15' date='May 16 2007, 10:52 PM']Folks, this is just great. Thanks all involved for your efforts - I am sure I speak for everyone. If I can help at all, just shout up. So, when do we start using this one properly, instead of BT? Cheers Chris[/quote] +1 on that Chris, Thanks for the welcome, but really it's us who should be thanking you guys! Looking forward to good times ahead from hereonin, Nik

[quote name='slaphappygarry' post='454' date='May 17 2007, 03:40 PM']Just wanna put a big shout out to Phatmonkey, Crazykiwi and Ped. Ben (phatmonkey) is currently doing exams, CK is busy with work and Ped is busy being a bum and STILL they have managed to get this place up and running. Its these three guys and their round the clock work that have got us here. Basschat belongs to its users now, and there is nothing anyone can do to stop it. Thanks guys. Your hard work has not gone unnoticed. Garry[/quote] +1 on that - thanks Folks! Nik
