Just to let you all know that there won't be a SE Bass Bash this year. We're currently considering the possibility of doing something in the Spring of next year instead.

That's my fave line to use. I also use it with bassists in support bands who turn up at a gig but conveniently have forgotten their bass/amp or cab. When I was in the KISS tribute band we had pyro on stage and put notices on the PA cab to stay away from the edge of the stage. Once, at a gig in South Shields, two numpties decided they wanted to sing on the chorus of a song so clambered up onto the stage just as some pyro went off behind us (luckily nowhere near them). That was enough for me and I downed bass and headed to the dressing room while my bandmates stood there perplexed. I refused to perform until the in-house Promoter came and saw me and got his act together/sorted security.... It was a tense half hour of no band onstage but I'd do it again every time. The stage area is sacred ground and NO punter shall enter it without permission.

Never heard of her. I love it when press releases put things like 'taking the music world by storm'.... 🤣 Nice looking bass though....!

Just bought tickets for Toto at Wembley Arena in February! 😎💜

I have a list of my whole collection with serial numbers/descriptions etc. I also have a list of all the gear I've sold/traded but just their titles, no serial #'s etc... -
More accurately, the UK's ONLY Stone Roses, Guns N Roses, and Rolling Stones tribute. 🤣😂

Depending on date I might be up for this

Who COULD that be?! He's VERY good..... and has such great tone! 😉🥰🤣

Selling some bits from my old rack rig.... Here's my trusty, industry standard, Furman Power Conditioner.... providing power for up to 10 separate units and complete with dimmable, pull-out lights so you can see your rig on a dark stage..... and a Voltmeter so you can see what voltage you are receiving. It's not only for live use though. It's also fantastic in a home recording rack or as part of a PA power rack setup. Also great to run before a valve head so you don't get any nasty surprises! The spiel: The Classic Series features Furman’s revolutionary Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP), Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT), and Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS). Together, these technologies comprise what is, without question, one of the world’s most advanced and comprehensive transient voltage surge suppressors. You’ve got a rack for your effects, preamps, tuner…You’re going to plug that into the wall? One big spike and your rig is up in smoke. Furman’s advanced Series Multi-Stage Protection defends your gear from the spikes and surges that are so common at gigs and practice spots. With Furman’s advanced Linear Filtering Technology, you’ll get a quieter tone without pops, crackles, and the local radio station coming out of your amp. RECORDING Can’t track down where that noise is coming from? Your mix sounding flat? With Furman’s advanced Linear Filtering Technology you’ll lower the noise floor caused by the dirty AC power coming into your console or DAW. Furman’s advanced advanced Series Multi-Stage Protection keeps your sensitive digital equipment from acting funny or burning up due to everyday spikes and surges. It’s enough to power your whole home studio! DJ EQUIPMENT Bars, clubs and other event venues have some of the worst power out there – from air compressors turning on and off, to light shows pulling current loads up and down, the AC power can be a strain on the circuits in your rig. Furman’s advanced Series Multi-Stage Protection and LiFT keeps the bad stuff out and the dual pull-out front panel lights let you discreetly see your board and gear without distracting from the show on the dance floor. PRO AUDIO When you’re out there gigging, you never know what kind of power you’re going to get. The wear and tear on mobile rigs eventually takes its toll – that’s why it’s smart to plug into Furman’s advanced Linear Filtering Technology. It keeps your equipment safe and sounding clean. Whether you’re setting up a show at the local club or powering up the church band for their next service, make sure you give them power they can trust. As this has sat in a flight case in my garage for a little while the top/bottom metal casing is showing some signs of oxidisation but it doesn't affect the operation of the unit and can't be seen when racked as front & rear panels are clean. These were close to £500 when new but I'm letting this go for just £150 delivered or SENSIBLE offers! What price 'peace of mind'?! Especially with some of the dodgy plug points in venues! 😉 *SOLD* Please see my extensive, positive feedback thread for assurance of a clean, honest transaction.

I’ve decided to move on my lovely Tech21 VTBass 500 head as it’s just not getting used. Why isn’t it being used you ask?! Well, I’m just hooked on my GKs so this is just sitting there as a never used backup and it’s SO much more than that! Actually, it's a fantastic piece of gear - basically it’s a VTBass pedal bolted onto a 500W power amp! Who could ask for more?! There are so many great bass tones on board here and the ‘magic’ happens in the "Character" control which can go from old school B-15 to SVT and then into more modern tones, all with the ability to blend with your direct signal too! Here’s a link to the instruction manual: https://www.tech21nyc.com/t21manuals/VT500_OM.pdf The amp is in excellent condition with just a few light scuffs & scratches. Everything works perfectly and I’ll be sad to see it go. I’m asking £325 posted for this or I can include a £60+ SKB amp gig bag (see pics) for just £25 extra at £350 posted. Direct bank transfer, Paypal (you pay fees) or cash on collection from Sandhurst/Camberley area please. Please see my extensive positive feedback thread for assurance of an honest, clean transaction.

Don't like the fat arse or the pickup position. It's a no from me....
-
I'm just glad all the really GREAT bands have either finished, or aren't media darlings..... That way I never have to deal with anything over £100 and can get tkts reasonably easily.
-
Purchased a GSS Baby Sumo from Simon. Good comms and well packed for the journey! Thanks chap!
-
Do they add any weight? If not, I'd probably get the cloverheads in black... matches the bridge.
-
Just reinforces my negative view of Morrissey and positive view of Marr.... I don't think I could share a tour with a Gammon who doesn't eat gammon either....
-
Nice! 🤯 But it can stay in Japan at £8k.....
-
Finally put a few minutes aside to learn 'Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick'. It's always been on my list but never had a reason to do so until joining a band that want to cover it! Got it nailed now, just have to make sure my fingers don't get tied in a knot on the C# riff...!
-
Fender Rumble 25. Fantastic sounding little amp!
-
I have a few of them (I organised the UK distribution via Bass Direct) but I've yet to fit them!
-
Can't stand them. Vanilla music for people who don't really 'love' music imho.... I hope those that do like them enjoy the reunion, just don't expect a decent singer or any energy on stage....
