  1. Hi all [b]I hve now booked the hall for the Bash.. Saturday 16th July. 1pm to 50pm[/b] Timings are loose so come as and when you can. Lets have a good turnout and make a lot of low frequency noise. I will have a selection of my basses and some Gallien Kreuger amps and cabs. Ric 4001 Kramer 8 string A vintage Antoria P bass Toby Pro 4 Tokai T Bird If Kert (FunKShUi) can make it we can see his amazing new bass. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/271204-single-cut-camphor-and-alder-pj/"]http://basschat.co.u...r-and-alder-pj/[/url] This is a build many of us have been watching (and drooling over) Tea and coffee freely available on help yourself basis Although I will put out a donations tub just to help for it. Lets make it the best yet.
  2. Sorry I have been a bit quiet on this, been a bit busy. I will be at commitee meeting tomorrow night, so should be able to fix date then. Should be between Sat 25 June or 2nd July.
  3. [quote name='ras52' timestamp='1464441310' post='3059489'] That looks nothing like an owl! [/quote] Ha now I've edited it so that people won't understand your comment. Ah well back to " Name that tune"
  4. When I stuck a replacement Jazz neck on a P body I made my own decal. [url="http://s970.photobucket.com/user/gelfin5959/media/20160122_141517_zpsp1mjwkmp.jpg.html"][/url]
  5. Self same engineer used to make all sorts of iffy devices for us. The night nuiscance. Construcetd in a ciggarette packet, an old type earphone a light sensitive transistor a battery and some other bits. Leave it in someones bedroom, while it was light or the light was on it would remain silent. As soon as it was dark it would make a noise like an angry mosquito. Target person switches light on to find it and it goes silent. I still have it somewhere
  6. When I used to work in a Hi Fi shop we used to get the engineer to charge up caps for us. We had an ar$e of a manger so we would slip them into his pocket and just wiat for him to put his hand in.
  7. I guess I'm pretty lucky to have a basement to use. [URL=http://s970.photobucket.com/user/gelfin5959/media/Basement_zpslkbd4lgm.jpg.html][IMG]http://i970.photobucket.com/albums/ae181/gelfin5959/Basement_zpslkbd4lgm.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  8. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1462809843' post='3045837'] Certainly. The Moderating team would have been immediately called in from all corners of the globe, in order to discuss the suitability of you as a Bass Chat member. [/quote] I've had a good look but can't find a corner of the globe.

  10. I'm also waiting for Blue to come along and say McCartney should have been chosen.
  11. [quote name='bootleg' timestamp='1462403955' post='3042848'] Rebooting this after seeing Sherwood playing with Yes at Colston Hall, Bristol this evening. I would say he filled Squire's boots on all counts. Presence, backing vocals, sound, bass lines. A strong tribute. Not a new interpretation. [/quote] I have to agree with this. I was at Colston Hall last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I have been an avid Yes fan for longer than I can remember, so may be a little biased. Bought my ticket before Chris died but when I heard Billy Sherwood was his favoured replacement for the tour I was comfortable with it. The whole show was excellent and I suppose the big pressure moment for him was playing The Fish. He nailed it. Another interesting observation was how the full house audience enjoyed the show and it was pleasing to see a complete absence of phones being held up to video it. Finishing with Starship Trooper was awesome. http://www.bristol247.com/channel/culture/music/reviews/review-yes-colston-hall
  12. John Paul Jones. I used to build custom flight cases and was delivering to Manson guitars when they were in Crowborough. This guy came in to collect his triple neck acoustic, (and case) while I was there. Took this pic, but only after he had left did Hugh tell me who he was.

  15. Just checking, are you connecting the correct way round. i.e. in and out the right direction.
  16. [quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1461767824' post='3037459'] Start the thread then boys . . . [/quote] Fixed Just got to see your new bass.
  17. As Marc said earlier I have organised some bashes. Probably time for another. Previous details here. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/253971-cardiff-south-wales-bass-bash-2015-saturday-march-28th/ Plenty of space plus parking . All free. Suggest some dates, perhaps late June early July. On a Saturday.
  18. Best place to ask this is in Repairs and technical.
  19. Hi Chris another S Wales lad here, Cardiff. Nic
  20. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1461324606' post='3033671'] Fixed. [/quote] Thanks Dad,, poor typo by me.
  21. You can either use two speaker cables using both speaker outputs on the amp or you can daisy chain the speakers from one speaker output. Both ways your amp will see 8ohms.
