Dood Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 [quote name='bnt' post='151044' date='Mar 4 2008, 01:35 PM']I'm looking at a way of getting there, partly with a slightly ulterior motive: I have a Chapman Stick (10-string) I would like to sell. I've concluded that selling it will mean a trip to the UK anyway, since shipping from Ireland is expensive and risky. I'd like a trip to the UK anyway, and if I stay in Northampton I'll get a Saturday in London too. Would anyone be interested in taking a serious look at the Stick, if I bring it across? I'll post a note in the For Sale forum too, with photos (later). I'd prefer to carry it one-way only. [/quote] I'm in no position to be spending money on new instruments, other than those on the way already, but I would love to have a play on your Chapman Stick!

dannybuoy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I'm up for this, it would be great to meet some of you after being on here for a while. I'll bring my Yamaha fretless (equipped with quarter pounder pickup) and my pedal board (if anyone's interested in trying out an EBS Multicomp, Digitech Bass Synth Wah, Humphrey Bad Monkey and DHA VT2 Dual Custom!). Shoot me a PM if anyone's driving up from London and has room for a small one in the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I'll sling my MultiComp in the bag.. I wouldn't mind trying a Sansamp BDDI again, or one of the other bass versions, like the Para for example... [edit] ...^^^^^ I would had I have not sold it ;o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s_u_y_* Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) Anyone fancy giving me and a bass a lift from Battersea, South London? I can always travel to a tube or train station near you... and of course, will chuck in some petrol money for your troubles.

tremblap Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I'm soooooooooo sad I will miss this! Gig in my hometown, 6 hours flights, not convenient to commute... Will there be one in the summer? pa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnt Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Sorry, folks - I've had a rethink, and won't be coming to the Bash after all. The timing was just too awkward, it required me to take time off university and miss lectures, which I would rather not do with exams 6 weeks away.

Forcemaster Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I have a cunning plan m'lord. Would it not be a huge amount of fun if we could perhaps bring some of our drummer buddies down and set up a drum and bass jam sesh? My father has an electric drum kit I could probably persuade to let my bring, and we can run that through a bass rig and just have a cool little jam going on. I don't know wether that'd be against some public performance laws or something but if people like the idea it would be great fun! (P.S. Kudos to those who get the blackadder reference) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
