  1. IIRC, 2007 was the year of the Northampton national Bash Dave.. I remember having an absolutely hilarious road trip up there with @WalManand @Merton.. It was a great day.... 😊 Despite it being the Bash where a guy (who's name escapes me) played slap bass at max volume for about 4 hours non-stop.. How no one decked him that day, I'll never know! Happy days 😁
  2. Courtesy of today's mercifully short Raffle draw, that Q-Tron made its way into my kit bag thanks very much @TrevorR.. It's great fun and I'm looking forward to using it.. (Along with the one I own already!! 😁)
  3. @Wombat Got to say Matt, that's an amazing little piece of kit! Thanks for bringing it along... πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  4. Had a great day today and thanks to everyone who came along to make it yet another successful Bash! Got to say a very special thanks to Pete Stroud aka @mybass for being our guest speaker... Pete's talk was really enjoyable; full of humour and useful insights into his career, his playing and his very interesting approach to building basses! Thanks Pete - really appreciate it! πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘ Another big thanks also to Colin aka @Hamster, Sarah, aka Mrs Hamster and Gary aka @cetera - without their enthusiasm, energy and support, the Bash just wouldn't have happened this year! Great to see/hear some amazing gear in action today, from @cetera's amazing Spector custom shop, to @pete.young's Dusenberg, @orangefriday's LED home build bass, @Frank Blank's Godin...amongst many, many others!! We definitely appreciated all the help setting up and packing down btw, so thanks to all who contributed there.. Anyway, it was a fab day and thanks again Folks! Looking forward to reading Sivia' Bijou Blog when it's ready too.. 😁 Nik P. S. @The Greek - Mick, I'm so sorry I didn't get to see/meet Laurence Cottle, am gutted about that, but thanks for inviting him along.. And sorry not to see you either!
  5. Good Sir, aka @ricksterphil, Then 'tis time to scratch thine itch and test the will of the keeper of this fine lute of the low frequencies... To paraphrase the words of the great bard himself : "Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them... Especially if they happen to own an Ibanez Studio Bass purchased from the fine county of the West Sussex.." 😁
  6. Thanks for asking @Marc S I'll find out for you and will let you know. Cheers Nik
  7. Had a chat with the owner of this bass and as he's keen to move it on as soon as possible, here's a BUMP for a new price of £625 or near offer.. 😊
  8. That's a brilliant story - thanks for sharing!! πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  9. Is that a political problem Shaun, or something bass related..? 😁
  10. Unfortunately not Sean.. Couldn't get our usual luthier, Ian Robinson this year.. Anybody know anyone else who might be interested?
  11. Said most of us 4 string players on here... πŸ˜‰
  12. Whatcha got now, Chris?? 😁😊 Back on topic, lovely looking cab - GLWTS!
  13. Cheers Mick 😊 I'll message you to discuss it.. Nik
  14. Thought this would be worth a mention on it's own: Other workshop ideas: If anybody wants to put together a workshop at short notice, that's be great. Here's a list of the ideas put forward so far: Best In Show P Bass Shoot Out Full Band environment bass test Blindfold bass test Blindfold P Bass test Cab dispersion/distance test Introduction to IEM I think the 'Best In Show idea is great by the way, so am thinking how we could make that work.. Does anyone fancy making one or two of the other ideas happen? If so, please give me a shout! Cheers Nik
