2025 SE Bass Basheroo! Sunday 9/11/25 *CONFIRMED*

[SimonK]

Just to manage expectations - as I am getting excited about this already - is there any reason why I can't pack my car with cabs and other random bass kit I have collected over the years, and then just comment on the day that I am open to offers should anyone else want to buy any of it from me? Note I am not a business, just someone whose bass collection has got a little bit out of control and this could be a good opportunity to pass some bits of it on to others without faffing with ebay/postage?

You could put them in the raffle? 😉

There's always been a sale table - no reason why this can't be the case here.

Yep (ref. pg#3).

Do we need to give any disclaimers regarding that "the management accepts no responsibility", etc.?

I'm tempted to put a TE cab in the raffle just in the hope that whoever wins it came by public transport... 🙂

Might Dan Veall be free and willing? He’s one of the more sensible and authoritative bass ‘Toobers’…

@Dood can you make it?

There is no doubt that I need to be around my tribe more, I miss y'all, the bass shows and the like. Living up here isn't exactly conducive to a life in the thick of the bass world!! I'm about three hours away from the venue, so at the moment I'm not sure. I'd love to be there otherwise!

There was this one time.. oh, no.. wait.. NSFW... 

 

What would folk like from a mini-clinic / talk / nerdy ramble / tech lesson / theory and technique  teaching workshop? 

[prowla]

I'd just like to point out that this venue is a single hall, so we can organise the talks as interludes between folks bashing their basses (or is it vice-versa!).

We've got about 5 hours to play with, so it should work out about right.
