The 3D printed headless bass was my highlight of the recent SW Bash. I'd love to have another noodle on it.

 

I shall speak nicely to @neepheid about this. I have zero issues with lending it out.

 

I know he will have space for a bass from North Yorkshire to the Bass Bass, however that might limit his options when he passes near Guitar Guitar in Birmingham

Fair Deal Music is only a mile or two from there too. And if he does M6/M42/M40, he can pop in to Bass Direct and Bass Bros.

FYI - I have two basses up for sale right now

1991 SGC Nanyo Bass Collection SB310 with Glockenklang preamp - https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/519129-1991-sgc-nanyo-bass-collection-sb310-i-think-with-glockenklang-preamp/

2005 Epiphone Embassy Special IV with Entwistle neodymium pickup - https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/519069-2005-epiphone-embassy-special-iv/

 

 

If anyone is interested in either of these beasties and wants me to take it down to the bash, PM me.

Speaking as someone who has brought everything to a bash, I would advise that you don't - be editorial and try to bring what you think will be interesting.  I will be bringing 6 of my 14 basses, with another 4 or so which I will bring if anyone asks.

 

Lol! We did try and warn you 😂😂😂

[Stub Mandrel]

I am tempted. A 12:00 start means leaving at 9....

I regret nothing.  I did it so that no-one will ever try a stunt like that again

Whilst you regret nothing... I on the other hand...

It's a week to go folks!

On the catering front...

As previously mentioned, we plan to do a run to Costco on Friday to pick up some snacks; probably a couple of their ridiculously large cakes, some cans of pop, bottled water, some crisps, tea & coffee.

Plus paper plates, cups, napkins.

We'll do a £1 honesty box for items and the aim will be to cover costs, with the remainder going to the charity.

If anybody has any specific wants or don't wants, then pop in a message and we'll try and (ahem) cater for them.

The Reading Costco is my local, it's a good one for cakes! Maybe a tray of those delicious croissants for anyone coming in from London? 😉

Do they do smashed avocado or anything with quinoa?

Before it slips what is left of my mind, best wishes to all those attending for an absolutely spiffing day. (NB That was 'spiffing', in case anyone thought my 'L' tab wasn't working there. 'Tab' - oh God, here we go again ...)

 

Have a great one folks.
