Bryn Williams

Hello All Been lurking for far too long - so I thought it was time to sign up. I honestly don't know why I've not signed up before now! Anyhoo, just here to say hi and tell you a bit about myself and setup. My name is Bryn (sometimes aka Extoad). I've been learning to play bass guitar for 44 years. I've been a pro for a number of years earlier on but since mostly what you might describe as 'semi pro' ie covers bands for private parties, weddings, corporates etc whilst working as a teacher to feed my babies. I have very recently acquired a Barefaced Big Twin 2 driven by a tiny TE Elf shaped with an EBS MicroBass DI box. Seems to work beautifully for now at least. I use a Stingray from time to time but the workhorse is my trusty Fender Jazz, and occasionally I remember I have a Lakland. Since buying the BT2 I've rediscovered both basses as they sound entirely different though the new cab, so now it's time to wheel out all the other basses to see what they've been hiding from me. Because of my new love affair I've got a shed load of gear to dispose of, but first, some of it needs upgrading / refurbishing, and I'm hoping to get some advice from members re obtaining spare parts and logistics. It's very good quality gear (Mark Bass, Trace Elliot, some speakers - Sica and Eminence) and if anyone's interested I'd be more than happy to offer first dibs before putting it on general sites such as Ebay or Gumtree etc. Thanks for reading - I sincerely hope I've not transgressed in any way, and I look forward to exchanging comments with you 🙂 Bryn
