More than welcome to hang out at my stand. I'm right next to some loading doors so should be space.

Cheers, I've asked Jason to drop me as many updates that he wants me to share as possible. Which in turn I'll drop here.

Free parking is a big win for sure! Hope to see you there!

The Bass show has been confirmed for March 1st and 2nd in a dedicated hall along side the Guitar show in Birmingham. I spoke to Jason the organiser last year and asked him if he had thought about hosting the show, he told me he wasn't sure on if there was a want for one. I carried out some market research for him with polls on Insta and some Facebook groups and the feeling was that we 110% wanted the return of a bass show, but not just stalls. So I reached out to Jason with this information and also Scott from SBL. It looks like (hopefully) the SBL team will be putting on some clinics and stuff as well (But don't quote me on that as I just passed Scott onto Jason) In summary, there will be booths showcasing some great bass gear and clinics. Who would you like to see do clinics? I'm thinking of asking Cici about doing something, InThePocket Podcast for a live Q&A, anything else? Also, for those that have been disappointed with guitar shows not show casing more bass gear, ya better be at this one https://www.theguitarshow.co.uk/ - tickets are £16

I'd love to meet some fellow Yorkshire bass folk over coffee and cake, the odd rumble here and there. Does anyone normally organise a Yorkshire meet? Or is there not enough of us to warrant one?

Unfortunetly most shows are catered to the guitar players these days.

I picked up issue 5 (obviously, because I got a pedal in it) but found the articles much better in this one. Anyone have it? think the same? Waiting for my hard copy through the mail still. Dan still takes forever to answer any questions so I feel he is doing all this on his own.

I spoke to Dan at Guitar Show earlier this year in Birmingham. It seems that its just him trying to get a new mag going for us bassists. Most likely why its a little ropey etc anyway I sent him a Hornburg pedal to review and hopefully I'll get a feel for what else the mag is like before I invest too much in ads etc. It looks pretty for sure and the reviews seem to be written well. Fingers crossed the mag improves, but personally I think its great to have one starting up again.

Just read through this and I know its some what self promotion, but my BlackIce fits the bill here (so I think) its a low gain, edge of breakup overdrive, mids etc.

Welcome, also a new guy here from Leeds, if ya ever wanna try some of my stuff out give us a shout.

Hey all, names Matt. I run Goliath FX (promise I wont spam, but if I see a post about overdrives am I allowed to comment?) I make mainly bass orientated effects and utility pedals. The utility stuff is new and I'm working on it. Basically switchers, DIs, etc. I'm a metal bassist, played metal most of my adult life. So am I fool for trying to take on DarkGlass? Who knows. Aside from bass I love spending time with my son and wife. We go fishing, play Lego (all obsessed with the stuff) and little man has started to show a keen interest in playing bass/guitar so looking forward to expanding on that. I work a shift job as an engineer so my off time is pretty precious which is why, one day, I'd like to take on Goliath full time but its not earning me anything yet so its a bit of a pipe dream. Yeah, thats it, thanks for reading. Chat soon.
