baboom Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Was wondering if anyone knows of DB hire in Scotland? There is one place that charges £300/week but that is a tad ridiculous. Planning to phone Thwaites to see if they'll hire by post. Else I suppose buying one is the next most logical option (ignoring borrow and steal!)! Ideally I'd like a bit more time on target before buying - or will that not really matter too much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer of the Bass Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) Mev Taylors in Edinburgh used to do a rental scheme that was not too expensive, but only with the entry level instruments. I'm not sure whether they still do it though. Edit; yes they do - link [url="http://www.mevtaylors.co.uk/rental.htm"]Here[/url] Edited January 13, 2011 by Beer of the Bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way I'd be able to justify something mega expensive anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend Rick may be able to help you. He lives near Glasgow and is a freelance bass player - he hires out one of his basses. On one occasion to Gary Peacock. His email is [email protected] I hope this is useful for you. Good luck. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
