skywalker Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Does anyone know if there are magazines for Bass Players which are published in the UK. I subscribe to Bass Player but it is an American mag with American content, and no information on the UK Bass scene. It would be nice to have a monthly read of what is going on over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexclaber Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 BGM seems to be steadily improving - a lot of fairly wide-ranging and well written content. It knocks the defunct Bassist magazine into a cocked hat... Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
