I just purchased Dean's Thunderfunk 550B head and it was a really smooth transaction. Great communication throughout and the amp arrived safe and sound exactly when Dean said it would. Got to say that it was a pleasure dealing with Dean and I would certainly do so again - he's another great credit to the Basschat community, so deal in confidence folks! Fabulous sounding amp by the way Thanks Dean!

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1436974648' post='2822494'] I'm sure you will get plenty of helpful advice at the bash! I may also ask Nik to see if we can have an amp talk of some sort. [/quote] Good idea Silvia! Just back from holiday; will PM you, Happy Jack and obbm tomorrow about ideas.. Nik

Good question Steve! Let me just check that with the Greek Government; I believe they are experts in this particular area of, how shall we put it, 'fiscal legitimacy'....

Looking good Folks!

I'll be gigging again [/quote] [quote name='seashell' timestamp='1436304759' post='2816989'] That's the last day of my holiday at Lake Garda so I will have to miss it this year. :-( [/quote] Sorry we won't see you both - maybe next year? BTW, Lake Garda sounds fabulous Shelly!

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1436305515' post='2817004'] I'm supposed to be getting married early October in China. If I haven't left the country by then and I haven't taken my old Audi back to the mechanics, I'll come along. Will bring the GB Shuttle 6.0 and two fEARful F112 cabs, Spector 5, Status 5, Alembic, Pedulla...and maybe the Steinberger if there is any interest. [/quote] Would love to hear those fEARful cabs, Steve!

[quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1436301038' post='2816945'] Put me down. Should be bringing my Jule Monique and Demeter Minnie with the EAD Foundation 212. All being well there'll be a new custom Spector Forte 5'er too [/quote] Very nice!

Thanks Silvia

I just bought a looper pedal from Liam which is a really great unit....I'm really am pleased with it. Liam is very easy to deal with, sends stuff out really quickly, but is also helpful to the point of going out of his way this weekend to do a quick mod on the pedal for for me so it now takes batteries - how cool is that? So, fellow Basschatters, you can deal with Liam in complete confidence! Another great example of what the BC community is all about! Thanks again Liam

Love this band; great front man, great players and a cool retro vibe. We used to cover 'Blues Hand Me Down' of theirs in my last band, and though most punters didn't know either the song or the band, it always went down great!
