    [quote name='ubassman' timestamp='1393711802' post='2383719'] ...why does the thought of a secret bottle of whisky stashed away spring to mind? !! [/quote] It was the bands' portable bar. :-)

    [quote name='ubassman' timestamp='1389820047' post='2338367'] Not seen anything quite like this with plush velvet lining inside the bass! I imagine its a very different instrument when amplified to when its not. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Upright-Travel-Bass-Project-Custom-Double-Parts-made-by-Bassix-UK-/171218468217?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Sting_Instruments&hash=item27dd6a7d79 [/quote] Haha, that was made for me by Alan. It came with a mag pup that was fitted to end of the neck. Everything fitted inside the half body case. Looked very interesting on stage.

    [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1393404180' post='2379722'] It was Steve bbb, but it would seem he no longer works at that company. Perhaps he can point you in the right direction though. [/quote] Cheers, I'll ping him a PM

    Probably the bass that's as surprised me the most. Lovely neck, wide tonal range and inexpensive. GLWTS

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1392979572' post='2374818'] ....! Oh, and did I mention the initiation ceremony....? [/quote] Excellent, I'll bring the rubber gloves this time, far more hygienic than last year. :-)
  11. oldslapper
    Might be able to make it now. I'll be bringing a TE combo that's in the for sale section and a MIJ Ibanez Roadstar II RB924 deluxe and, if I can fit it in, a rather nice custom PJ made by a local-ish luthier. Hope to see you Sunday. John

    [quote name='obbm' timestamp='1392489406' post='2369408'] Is this still available. [/quote] Sorry, need to update the thread, it's withdrawn from sale.

    [quote name='Woodinblack' timestamp='1392076625' post='2364521'] As I live in yeovil and work in sherborne, this is pretty close to me. So what happens at one of these things, and what is good to bring? [/quote] You could bring your Rockinbetter along for people to try out, you might get a sale or trade, that is after you've gone through the initiation ceremony that Keith so masterfully presides over.... It's generally a nice chilled time ans a chance to meet some other local bass players, have a go on some gear that you might not have tried before. They're a very friendly bunch in Dorset, and it's very relaxed (once the initiation ceremony has taken place that is)

    Jon, that's a brilliant gig.....nice one. I love The Beat.....and The Intercepteurs,....of course...playing the upright?

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1391526152' post='2358140'] Bash Update News Local Luthier Ben Crowe will be joining us on the day, bringing a Perspex Bass he built for Charlie Jones and a selection of the set-up tools he sells on his website:http://crimsonguitars.com/ . He will happily answer questions so we'll do a little Q&A session too. [/quote] Good call Keith, that's a nice coup. Crimson guitars are brilliant!

    Temp withdrawn as I've noticed a hum when it turns on, all works ok, but not sure what this is means, so taking to local tech tomorrow.

    [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1390569577' post='2346969'] I used it a few times with a Tonehammer 500 and it sounded great. It easily filled a large hall without PA support. [/quote] Ah, yes I saw that in your sig. Thanks. I'm torn between a 4x8 and a 1x12. Used both before but neither with a PF head.
  25. oldslapper
    Mmmmm, wondering what this would be like with a PF500??!! ......now we know that he knows that you know :-)
