sarah thomas Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hi Anna - my brother lives near Hinckley (Frolesworth) so hopefully I can call in and say hello next time I'm in the area. Do you have any upright basses? I like plain chocolate biscuits with pieces of ginger in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) I hope you have much success! Glad you made it to the forum. May I draw your attention to one of the Basschat Affiliates, Xylem, he's a bass builder in the USA and a few members were suggesting he gets a few of his stunning basses over to the UK. He makes extraordinary basses from extraordinary wood, with extraordinary skill. They are a little like Carl Thompson basses. I think he needs a little help to start getting some UK business now we have let him know there may be some demand. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/112080-xylem-basses-guitars-build-progress/"]http://basschat.co.u...build-progress/[/url] I see you are a Francis Dunnery fan too Best wishes, Nigel Edited March 1, 2012 by silddx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have an NS 5 String Electric Upright Bass but its my own, we only distribute Mayones & LowEnd but also have 7 Shuker Basses as demo. It would be good to see you sometime - Hxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan of all bassists but I did see It Bites live back in the late 80's or early 90's, it was great to see real musicians enjoying themselves - Hxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
