wateroftyne Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 [quote name='warwickhunt' post='422608' date='Mar 1 2009, 08:02 PM']Well done Michael, a cracking day! Mind I think GAS has been prematurely induced in a few people. Unfortunately, my mate Craig (non-BassChatter, 3rd pic down on post #121) has been swayed to the dark side and despite my best efforts has decided that his first bass will be... a Fender! No accounting for taste! [/quote] Heh.. post modified to reflect this new info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 some nice gear there, but the notts one was better! (haha, i joke). What's that little amp though next to the bongo? Looks like an eden or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassoctopus Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sorry I didn't make it (again) guys. Looks like a good day and a great turn out. I ended up spending the morning fleeing round the Yorkshire Dales in fast cars, expected to be back in time, but it just didn't happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPJ Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Great afternoon, some stunning gear on display and to try and more slappers in one place than a hen night in Blackpool Nice to meet so many NE Basschatters and to talk bass with so many talented people. Roll on the next one eh? Thanks again to WoT and Warwickhunt for the organisation etc. and thanks to Dave Wilson for the kind donation to the running of the event.

Ba55me15ter Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hi WoT, I introduced myself near the end but my moniker may have been drowned-out by heavy artillery. Nice to (sort of) meet you anyway! The amp is indeed a PJB Briefcase. A lovely little thing, but somewhat out-gunned this afternoon!! So, who wants to sell me an Overwater Jazz 5?

Eight Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 It was really nice to meet you all - such a collection of good blokes and quality gear is hard to find. I learnt a lot and am delighted to have avoided all the photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bass Doc Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Congrats to Messrs. Tyne and Hunt on organising a splendid afternoon. The event was well named as apparently residents in the neighbouring houses were ready to bash the living daylights out of any bass player who stepped outside unaccompanied. Here's to the next one.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguyhomer Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) Hey Marcus - is that 59 burst Sadowsky a recent acquisition from Guitar Guitar? I noticed it's disappeared off their site - I was gonna buy that very bass after playing Wayne58's NYC version. How is it?

far0n Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Cracking day, I've realised that Warwick's aren't so bad afterall. I'm also gonna get my Vigier electronically tagged, 'cos Funkyhobbit liked it that much I feel he may try to swipe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
