Thank you, you are one of the people who sold me on Ashdown.

Not read the whole of the other thread detailing the more annoying Youtubers, but it got me to thinking about a list of those we find useful, informative, helpful and so forth. I like Constantine Isslamow for instance. Seems a nice guy and his stuff is usually on the money. Who have you found that you like, for any reason?

As the Ian Messiter of this game I hereby decree that we need not be able to play the bass line 100% as per the original. This would be a retrograde step which might exclude folk from having a go. If it can be guessed then that's good enough!

Just snagged this in a classic BC service station carpark trade deal. I got a tube amp I can actually lift and @Williams4S got a very special jazz bass. We both felt happy with the swap and remember kids bartering saves the planet. I'm a recent convert both to valve amps and to Ashdown gear in general. My SVT produces a sound which makes me go weak at the knees but hauling it up a flight of stairs means I barely have knees to start with. This beauty is 50% lighter so if it sounds at least 51% as good it will be a serious contender for Amp Number 1. Why Ashdown? Basschat sold me on the company. So many people reporting back on the excellent customer service simply cannot be ignored. Also I have an ABM 500 (see here for more information) and it's just a great amp. Oh, and the Trace Elliot connection cannot be ignored! So here I am. Possibly one step closer to my ultimate set up. As things stand it is the CTM100, atop two BF 1x15 cabs and my Bass Collection Bruce Thomas Profile slung around my Gregory Peck. Its not my Trace Rig I grant you. But that's a thing of beauty rather than a practical tool!

No more clues just yet - I'll be out driving for a couple of hours and won't be able to post the answer. Unfair advantage to the rest of the world I say.

The door is ajar...

My goodness, he's a baby!

Game is open boys and girls, first come first served.

Gah! Thanks, I knew I knew it. If you know what I mean.

Aargh, I recognise that bit at the end. Can't bring it to mind.

My goodness you two are right on it!

While we all prepare for the big day (I just bought my clamps) here's a diverting video about plywood

Ashdown is the closest I've found but I've not tried that many others

We have a winner! Your turn @kevin_lindsay

Phone stuck in front of an amp works surprisingly well!

OK for those just coming to the game, if you want to guess then please do. You don't have to be able to record a bass line. If you can't record one all you do as winner is nominate another basschatter and the game rolls on. If all else fails I'll bung something up.

So..... returning briefly to planet earth... @bartelby seems like it's your go...

Wow that was a bit quick!

We had a winner who couldn't contribute a recording so its open house now...

It's just entertainment.

Well I'm impressed.
