Thanks. I'll try not to be. Can't promise anything of course as I am a belligerent Scot.

 

If you still have it by that time, I'd be very interested in playing your Epiphone Les Paul actually as I think it looks fantastic. It'd certainly be good to meet you and the rest of the peeps properly.

 

Naturally, getting the train, I'd be travelling light, so one bass, possibly a small amp and maybe a few pedals. I don't know what folk would be interested in trying that I own as since quite a lot of it is "pointy," or dare I say it, "mental," it does sometimes put people off.

 

I say bring your most mental one.  Vive la difference!

Pointy is good. Soon it will be retro

@neepheid's Les Paul is indeed a great bass.

Well, most of my collection is a bit mental so I'll list the more weird ones. I'll list them in "declining pointy order" if you want. Pictures to hand of the first 2 if you want a laugh.

Not promising anything, but I’ll talk to the management. Assuming that a mere Sire V7 might interest someone in such otherwise august company of Sei, top bracket fenders and  so on 

 

she’s going to Devon in a few weeks so I don’t see why I can’t take 1.5 days off (I need to take the drive slowly as I’m not allowed to drive too far in one go for medical reasons)
