The Goatreich

Newport, so not far from Cwmbran.

I've flown all over the world with my bass. I've always taken my coffin case which is now so battered it's held together by gaffer tape and magic alone. Once, in Indonesia I saw my case coming along the conveyor belt with the side split and my bass half hanging out. That wasn't fun, but all was ok luckily. I swore then that I would never fly with that case again and would get a proper custom fit flight case, but due to the expense of them I haven't managed yet. Normally I put my bass, pedals and leads in the case, wrapping a few T-shirts around things so they fit snuggly. I never lock my case as security have complained about this in the past, but I put one of those luggage straps around the case which stops it falling open if the catches get popped. With more flying and touring on the cards next year I really do think that a proper flight case should be on my list, anyone know of any companies that offer endorsements/artist discount? Thankfully I never have to take my amp-head.

Hey guys, completely new here but got recommended to check it out by a friend. My name is Andi and I play bass for Welsh death metal band Desecration. I also regularly do live and recording sessions for seminal hardcore punk/grinders Extreme Noise Terror. You can check these out at [url="http://www.mysapce.com/desecrationuk"]Desecration Myspace[/url] and [url="http://www.myspace.com/extremenoiseterroruk"]ENT Myspace[/url] Other bass adventures have been: Funeral for a Friend, Irony of Christ, Mulch and Amputated. Currently my rig is: Ibanez ergodyne EDB605 Sansamp Ampeg SVT-III Pro Ashdown ABM 4*10 Ashdown ABM 1*15 These cabs will be for sale at some point in the near future as soon as I can sort out the replacement for them, more than likely an Ampeg 8*10 or 6*10
