I have questions!

 

Then you are in the right place.

What happens at these things?

 

Ypu turn up with whatever basses, amps, FX, anything else, you feel like bringing and then we all look at/try out whatever we are interested in. That and talk about basses all day long. It's a gas and it gives you GAS.

do I need to book a ticket?

 

You do not, just turn up on the day, pay a tenner and you're in. It's the best tenner you'll spend all year.

You have to buy everyone a drink! 🙂


Thanks @prowla I’d forgotten this important facet of Bass Bashes. Another point worth mentioning is that we are also mostly masons so we tend to drink pints of Crème de menthe.

Looks like I'll be running late, but should still make it. Tickets for Trading Boundaries the night before for wifey's birthday, which'll be a lateish one once I've driven home.

 

If nothing else I need to be there in the hope of delivering @hen barn's 2019 raffle prize that we never managed to arrange to meet up to exchange!! Found it in the garage in a box of pedals when I was looking for something else this afternoon

Good Evening Everybody. Sorry to seem ignorant But i have never been to an event like this before, So, Can Anyone Please tell me What actually happens at one of these Events?  as I have no idea. Are there guest appearances? is there a Concert?  I can only assume there are Guitars on display and for sale possible Bass Expert Luthiers?

Thank you for your time

Well, you turn up whenever you like, after 10am usually. Bring whatever bass equipment you like, pay your £10, find a place to set your gear up and then show other people your gear and check out other attendees gear. You can spend all day chatting about bass with other people as enthusiastic about bass as you are! I remember going to my first with one small amp and one bass and I was foolish enough to set up next to @cetera who has a gazillion beautiful basses and yet he, and everyone else, made me very welcome to the point that I now try to attend all the Bashes wherever they are. Believe me, it's the best tenner you'll ever spend!

There hasn't been at any I've attended but I'm a relative newb, 2018 was my first (I think).

I think I saw one guitar, once.

 When you're struggling to bring a tenth of your basses in a family sized car, it then becomes a problem you'll have to put some serious thought into 😂

Fancy sharing a rent-a-van!
