If we extend the test to too many basses, the results will become extremely confusing IMO. If we were doing, say, a Warwick Corvette test, I don't think I'd like to see other models included in the test even if their pickup configuration were to be JJ or $$ like most Corvettes.

If you're in the area and haven't decided where to watch the match tonight, come along and shake a leg before sitting down in front of the big screen Early start and early finish.

I've just created a Facebook event for this bash - feel free to share and add your names as participants! [url="http://www.facebook.com/events/1424704934480412/"]http://www.facebook.com/events/1424704934480412/[/url]

Good stuff. I've moved this thread to Live Photos and Videos, and added your name in the title. Feel free to post more videos in this thread (and in that case, remove "at the 100 Club" from the title and place the info in the first post

LOL I can't wait Joel replied that there is no rush and we can get in touch at our leisure, which presumably means he'll wait to see how many pics he receives before deciding in which BGM issue to publish them

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1402669759' post='2475836'] I'm surprised nobody has suggested a 'Basschat Magazine' yet... Lots of players, people who have access to gear who work in music retail or within the industry (or could include reviews of gear by basschatters playing other basschatters basses... That would be an interesting twist on the usual reviews!) and we have designers and educators. Not such a far-fetched idea! [/quote] Except that it would need a lot of editorial work by an entire team to organise it all - for free! - and could obviously only be published online, on here, as printing and distribution are immensely expensive nowadays, compared with any returns.

I have received the following message from fellow BCer and Bass Guitar Magazine editor Joel McIver, and he's asked me if I could please share it on the forum. Here it is: [quote]I'd like to invite the Basschat members to submit a pic of themselves plus a few words about their bass/amps/FX/bands/recordings/website for inclusion in BGM and online. Please contact me at [email protected] with the subject line 'Me and my bass'[/quote] I have asked him whether there is a deadline for taking part, and will let you know his answer in due course Edit: amended the thread title to avoid tautology!

Have you tried also posting in the other section? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/forum/25-musicians-wanted/"]http://basschat.co.uk/forum/25-musicians-wanted/[/url]

Stu is very down to Earth, so it's not that exceptional to see him give masterclasses to small groups. He's been to my former music school in west London several times, given masterclasses and then stopped to speak to us afterwards, and he's been at the London Bass Guitar Show in the past (at the Hartke stand when I met him), relaxedly chatting to punters like me. (He even said he remembered me from one of his masterclasses at the school.) If you keep track of him, you'll probably be able to see him in person again

This is almost unfeasibly cool Have a great one and yes, please post photos and any footage you may get

Epic gig! I'll re-post this in the Live Photos & Vids section later, together with some pics I'm working on as we speak

Can't compete with Blablas' gorgeous stable of instruments, but as promised, here are some more pics of my new 'wick And these are my three natural beauties in different shades

A pound of what?

Been looking at this thread but I agree with fellow Londoners - we'll have to have a Southern DB Bash. In the meantime, tomorrow I'll tweet the Northern Bash with details. I've pinned this topic - could the OP please edit the title to mention date and place? Thanks Edit: Excellent, thanks Owen!

And the shades... OMG the shades!

The open air festival season is back, and so is King Ralph. Some shots from last Sunday at Kew Market: [url="https://www.flickr.com/photos/bluejay_my_photos/sets/72157644618689058/"]https://www.flickr.com/photos/bluejay_my_photos/sets/72157644618689058/[/url]

Chris, you can come to the South East and/or Herts bashes now that you live in London I've finally got round to collecting Roland Rock's photos from here and the Bass Relay thread, collating them and copying the relevant captions into a separate entry in my music blog: http://wp.me/p2ZbyY-hi Any additional body text or corrections etc. welcome, as always - just let me know

There was at least one BC member who had set himself exactly this challenge, but I can't remember his name at the moment. I hope he sees this thread and replies Me, I'm having enough trouble playing acceptably in the way that's natural to me, and I can definitely forget about ever trying to play "the wrong way round". I'm in awe of you guys...

Thanks Nik! I've just tweeted this - and the number of "guests" to this thread has duly shot up Some of us west Londoners are hoping to attend too, although we can't confirm as yet

I'll tweet this thread to our followers some time tomorrow

I've pinned this thread - please change the title and edit the first post to reflect the date and place agreed I'll tweet this in due course

When you guys have agreed on the date, please change the title of this thread to reflect it, and I'll tweet it to our followers.
