molan Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Phil, the owner of BassGear has a gig up in Yorkshire tonight and asked if I'd be around to keep an eye on the showroom today. So here I am surrounded by multiple Foderas, Alleva Coppolos, Zons, Boulder Creeks, Bag Ends, MarkBasses and various other pre-owned basses from Warwick, Ibanex, ESP, Fender etc. To cap it all I picked up a lovely old Fender '73 Jazz on the way here! So, the big questions are, which bass to try first though which amp / cab combinations? Phil still has his relocation sale on (although I think it's going to end soon as he's now mostly set up in Twyford) - this could be an expensive day. . .

dannybuoy Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 If he's relocating, sounds like you need to buy the shop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Sounds fun. I find eenie-meenie-minie-mo always helps in situations like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Waiting to hear from Jimmy - he often gets cancelled orders and stuff just sometimes 'pops up'! Jus the two walnut J basses & the cherry sparkle KBP4 here at the moment. The new '73 J that I picked up today is currently getting the most play through a MarkBass 2x10 combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepbass5 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 How about we all turn up after our Gigs tonight, and Party. You may get a sale or two. How does that Walnut Jazz sound ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2112 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Get on those stunning Foderas and then give the Wal MIDI bass a go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
