Bankai Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Well I've had a few days now with the newly acquired Fender P-Bass I bought off jackers. We were to meet at Southampton train station and not having completed an in-person purchase before I was not sure of the custom but our meeting went a little something like this: I walk round the corner to find a guy with a guitar case, I too have a guitar case. We stare, ala mexican standoff then simply "Basschat?" "Basschat." [20 minutes high-speed bass talk in public] The people in the waiting room must have been so confused. Also greatest moment; literally the moment he hands me his bass, I plant the headstock straight into the wall. Great start... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eight Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Hahahaha. I always find it weird saying "Hi, I'm Eight from BassChat"... especially if I'm not sure I'm talking to the right person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I have a different problem. I go up to a stranger and say 'Hi, I'm Bilbo' If they are the person waiting for me, its 'Hi, nice to meet you'. If they are not, the response is: 'Funny. You are taller than I expected'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougal Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 "[20 minutes of high speed bass talk in public]" ...and this is why basschat sales are so much more enjoyable than e-bay. Three or four times I've had 'chatter 'round my place, picking up the item of equipment in question, but then playing every one of my basses, shooting the breeze, having a cup of tea.
