If I can get there after work I will. I missed the funeral and sold the P I got off him so I'd best do something to celebrate his memory.

I'd like to hear your shuttle and bergs, although I'll have your old SB there so expect to leave with some GAS

[quote name='chaypup' post='1092991' date='Jan 17 2011, 07:37 PM']Yeah I'd love to come - I've never been to a bass day! Can we get Pino to come? [/quote] Palladino?

[quote name='hatori' post='1092831' date='Jan 17 2011, 05:48 PM']How about asking Burke Shelley to bring along his old Precision...yum[/quote] I can certainly invite Burke along, although he suffered a heart anurism in Poland back in November and I havnt seen him since, I know he's recovering well. He's an interesting and funny guy, I may even ask him to do some sort of talk if he's well enough. Good thinking!

Sweet times! I like a bit of interest. I've just had a pm off a guy who builds valve amps who may be able to bring one to demo, I shall have my SVT rig, if I havnt got my barefaced/GB rig by then. Along with atleast my T-40, SB and jazz. What else can people muster? I'm gonna get in touch with a local luthier and possibly a teacher to run a workshop or 2, I'll try to source a drummer and a guitard to jam with too

I'd like to get on this. Cardiff(ish)

Good times what would people like to see?

I like it but I must point out that my SVT-4 Pro has 1600w of power and is too much, hense downgrading. I fear this may be pointless, but then the best things in life are.

Yeah. It was a burst coloured 4 string ABZ with black hardware and a maple board. What a bass!

Okay this is very much a reality now, I'll book it as soon as I know which day suits the most people the best, possible dates are sat 31st of april or sun 1st of may. I have dibs on both days at music box at the moment. The issue is the cost of 3 rooms for 5 hours, I'm imagining it will cost over £100 so I need 9 other definate attendees to come just to cover costs of the studio. [b]Details about music box [/b] (I'll post more sooner to the date but for now) Music box is just off Penarth Road in cardiff, Tollgate close to be exact, I just can't remember what number, closer to the time I'll post it's full adress, contact details and a map of the area of cardiff it's in. It has 8 sound proofed well equipped rooms, tea and coffee making facilities, a tuck shop that sells crisps, chocolate, fizzy drinks and strings and the like. They're fairly well equipped gear wise too, Orange AD rig, SVT-2 pro, various cabs, various organs, various other stuff too.

I think another Cardiff bass day is in order. There are loads of us from SW and we don't know eachother at all.

indeed! mark is a bastard. I dont think he'll ever get me away from my SB and T-40 but I'd imagine he'll be selling me a Dingwall and a new head in the very near future. Also cheers Alex, I look forward to reading it.

Another SW boy here, I live in pontyclun. Welcome aboard mate!

It's fair to say that my preferences have changed somewhat since buying the 8x10. My everything louder than everything else attitude died and I'm now chasing a more modern, fuller, hi-fi sound.

I've looked at TC I'm just a bit worried it won't be loud enough being fairly low wattage compared to the GB. I havnt played if yet though. I went to BD a week ago and played the GB and a GK head through bergantino cabs with a Dingwall. It was this visit that made me want to completely rethink my rig. I will miss the Ampeg but I don't think my back will. I think I need to go back up to warwick.

Hey all, I want to down size my current Ampeg SVT-4 pro and 8x10 rig. I think I'm sold on the Genz Benz shuttle 9.0 or max12.0 head but the question turns to cabs to replace old faithful. I've looked at GB and Bergantino cabs but I don't really know what I'm looking for in honestly. The philosophy is transparency and fullness of tone but loud enough to keep up with fender twins and AC30s. I use a sansamp BDDI for a touch of drive, otherwise I'm dry effects wise.

I'm not feeling them at all. I've always liked the idea of a fenderbird but not that one.

Looks like something a child drew in a maths book.

So what's the difference between this and the classic EBMM? Aside from price and logo ofcourse.

I played one of these, a 4 stringer at Bass Direct last week. Oh my god what a bass it is. I'd happily get my hands on one and sell everything else i own, well maybe not the T-40 or the SB but I doubt they'd see much more use. The frets are easy to get used to and it's so clear and well balaced across the whole neck, also the fit and finish is bang on. Did I mention I like them?
