G-bitch Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 OK, I'm up for this. My Shuker 6 and G&L L2000 are probably 'run of the mill' enough not to bother bringing - is anyone interested in trying a Bergantino NV610 or a mid 70's Ampeg V4? I think a liftshare thread is needed, although I've got a small car so could probably only carry one person after gear! Good idea on the minibuses if there are enough takers, but i notice that there's not much response from the Bristolians on here yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Probably not worth taking too many large bass rigs as the room is not really very good acoustically and we better not make TOO much noise. I took my Mesa 400+/1516BE rig once and it was far too big/loud. Always a good idea to bring a small pocket headphone amplifier which your ears are accustomed to so you can try out some basses.

G-bitch Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 (edited) Bit of a cheeky request (despite limited room for gear!) - does anyone have an Ampeg 810 that they can bring along? I'd love to do an A/B comparison with the Bergie 610 and see how it fairs with a good few neutral pairs of ears (i.e. those who haven't splashed out on either of the cabs!).

ped Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 I am not sure you will be able to crank them up enough to do a good comparison given the nature of the room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elom Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 If I can come I'll bring my Fender Performer and Manson Kestrel but what about amps? Do people tend to bring along a small practice amp (I have a tiny Peavey) or just use the amps that others have brought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skywalker Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I will bring a USA Jazz (2005), and a fretless P which started as a no name fretted and now has a Encore fretless neck. I am interested in whether this can be fitted with Fender PUPs, so maybe someone can advise me on that. I also have a Fender Combo which I can bring which has a headphone socket if anyone thnks it might be useful. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
