Chris2112 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Did I just dream this, or is this indeed happening? I recall the admin team saying they were working on a new site to go with basschat, aimed at guitarists? My brother has always dreamed of a 'basschat for guitarists'. I hope I haven't just imagined this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Nope you didn't dream it! It's definitely planned to come along some time. Wasn't dood going to be moderating it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Yes, we had someone lined up to kick it off, but his father was diagnosed with cancer so Basschat things have taken a back seat. We're hoping he will be able to get back into it in a few weeks though. We've had a series of let downs with web developers unfortunately.

LiamPodmore Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Guitarchat, Drumchat and Synthchat have all been registered if i remember correctly. Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2112 Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 I am really looking forward to this and I hope to contribute to the guitar site. I ask because my brother mentioned again today his long standing wish that there was a guitar site with the vibe and content of basschat. I told him there was a guitar site in the pipeline. It will be awesome. Will our current user accounts span all the sites or will we need to re-registered on each different board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 If the numbers are limited, we can transfer account information over manually. Alternatively re-registering might be better and if there are any user name poachers, the admin can sort things out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] interesting point, and being multi-faceted as us bass players are who would go which direction - first thoughts being an ex-guitarist would be to go to guitarchat, but... a thought thats not occured to me until reading chris2112 post is that maybe i would prefer to read and post on drumchat for a bit of an insight into how all the drumchatters perceive us lot in the performance arena - although i know there are a few on here already offreing useful advice will there be any stigma issues? being a drummer on a bass forum must carry a certain small frisson of excitement and titillation !! would that still be the case once everybody was assimilated into the big new world order music-chat mothership [url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-Funk_Mothership"] [/url] on the plus side it can only be a good thing if more keyboarders and guitarers are exposed to our basschat [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/70165-funk-and-groove/page__hl__funk%20and%20groove"]funk and groove thread[/url] Edited September 16, 2012 by steve-bbb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Guitardchat - like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Kiwi has asked me and dood to admin it when it's live. No rush as the domain is parked for now - but I think it's better to plan properly than rush, as it won't just be a copy and paste of Basschat, p.s. Definitely easier to register new accounts than try and migrate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lojo Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Its bad enough having debates off topic with decent bass playing types, but with guitarists ! (yes, I know there are some jolly decent ones (chaps not players) before anyone pipes in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sausage Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Is there already a drum chat? I'm sure i've visited it whilst looking for drummers in the past?.....obviously i don't mean travelling back in time like Bill and Ted!
