Richard R Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago So how did it go guys and gals? Was it as much fun as I had at a Rememberance Parade service followed by an afternoon painting walls? 3 Quote
knirirr Posted 37 minutes ago Posted 37 minutes ago It was a fun day out; I've not been to one before so haven't yet had a chance to put faces to names. Nice to discuss EUBs, DBs etc. with the chaps there who were into that sort of thing, and to have a look at the variety of interesting bass guitars on show. I meant to take some books to get rid of but forgot, took some pedals to get rid of but forgot to get them out the car, and came away with an additional book (donation made to CRC). 3 Quote
jonno1981 Posted 28 minutes ago Posted 28 minutes ago (edited) Home now, it’s great to only live ten minutes from the venue! Thanks Paul & co for organising, I think the venue worked really well with the two rooms. Lots of great gear on display and friendly folks who allowed me to badly try it. I LOVED Mike’s satin finish sunburst Fender MIJ Jazz bass. The talks worked really well, lots of interesting stuff from the chap from Monty’s, the 60s Jazz pickup set sounded killer. The cab demo was an eye opener, you really don’t need a big cab to get a good tone. Chris Child’s interview had great stories and experiences to share. Thanks to Mike Brooks for facilitating. Overall that was a lot of fun! Edited 27 minutes ago by jonno1981 2 Quote
basexperience Posted 14 minutes ago Posted 14 minutes ago (edited) As a noob, can I say THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS! That was just lovely. I managed to miss the guitar shows this year, and that really did feel like a little show! everyone I spoke to, everyone I didn’t - please connect. I love this organisation! Also: Costco chocolate cake rules. @jonno1981 - lucky you! I used to live in crowthorne, these days I’m out near Hungerford! Edited 13 minutes ago by basexperience 1 Quote
