jwbassman Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 If it's not sorted by the time I get down there I'll give you a lift to get it Quote
MythSte Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Thatd be fantastic! however dont believe what Alan and Mike say, i dont just give money to anyone!! Im quite literally a two minute drive away, so yeah! Quote
Chris C Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Feel free to bring any drinks, there will also be someone armed with a kettle incase anyone requires a warmer beverage. We also have a George Foreman grill, so feel free to bring meats. Quote

ped Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 The Foreman grill is excellent, one of the large ones - we made a very decent fry up on it last time. Quote
Rayman Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Excellent. So some beer, maybe some tuna steaks, french sticks and angus steaks, a rocket salad, honey roasted Wiltshire ham and Monterey jack cheese for some toasties, olives, sun dried tomatoes, pesto, mayo, wild boar sausages, free range bacon chops, a home made pavlova, and a box of Krispy Kreme donuts. Anybody going to bring any bass gear? Quote
david_l_perry Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) One freshly completed Omni 10 As a fair number of bass players are interested in Bills cabs this one will be coming down to the meet up in Lytham St Annes...in fact I brought the build forward specifically to bring it down to this event. Only a shame I sold all my DR280's or I would be bringing one of these also. Will be very interesting to compare it against other known branded cabs. This is a great shot to give an exact idea of size. Its sat next to one of my previous little rehearsal cabs, an old Peavey 210TX (long since reloaded with alternate drivers....)

mikeh Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Good stuff, I'd certainly be interested in abing that against my Epi. Quote

MythSte Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 I didnt imagine it being as big as that either. Canny wait to try it out! Quote
Scoop Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 There's a fair chance I may show my extremely ugly mug at this wee bash. If anyone would like to try out any of my gear [the 12string perhaps?] then just gimme a whistle and I'll load it up. Quote
ped Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 I would also be really interested to check out the BFM cab. Someone will have to lend me a poweramp though!! Quote

Mottlefeeder Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 (edited) Those of you who are interested in BFM designs might like to know that I am bringing an Omni 12. It seems to be the least favoured of the three Omnis, since most go for the easy built of the 10, or the massive bass of the 15. I like it - you can make your own minds up. Here are the response curves from the BFM site - [url="http://billfitzmaurice.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=889"]http://billfitzmaurice.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=889[/url] Edited March 4, 2008 by Mottlefeeder Quote
GreeneKing Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I'd like to try the Omni 12, it might give me the incentive to finish mine Quote

BassBunny Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 [quote name='Chris C' post='148511' date='Feb 28 2008, 05:11 PM']Greetings everyone, I'm Chris from Bluebird Recording Studios. I'm looking forward to meeting you guys in March. I also play drums so I will be up for jamming some grooves if any of you fancy it.[/quote] Hi Chris. Any chance of a postcode so i can blame the Sat Nav if I get lost, (instead of Mrs BB blaming me.......) Quote
BassBunny Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Looks like Mike Walsh will have my new lightweight 1x12's finished and delivered this week, so will bring one along to evaluate against the Omni's. Will also bring "Marvin" and the No Name P Bass that is the bassis for a project. Quote
jwbassman Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 [quote name='jwbassman' post='133592' date='Feb 4 2008, 03:24 PM']Address is Bluebird Studios, Snowdon Road, St annes - [url="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Snowdon+Road,+St+annes&sll=54.162434,-3.647461&sspn=9.799374,26.696777&ie=UTF8&z=16&iwloc=addr&om=0"]google maps link[/url], it looks pretty straight forward to get there...[/quote] BassBunny hope this helps Quote
ped Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Using that google map link, the arrow should actually be slightly further east along the road - turn right at the T junction and the studio is one of the last units on the left of the Snowdon road. Me and Chris will make some posters or something. Actually we probably won't bother when it comes down to it, so maybe Ste can get here early and we can enslave the young chap. Quote
