such Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 are you sure it wasn't Phil from Bass Gear? I had to google that Jeremy Kyle Show's guy, and he looks a tiny bit alike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 No, it wasn't Phil. For the record, I don't watch Jeremy Kyle, I've just 'seen it'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peted Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I was there on the Saturday but unfortunately missed all the BassChat socials, sorry. Will make amends by attending the next Bass Bash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvia Bluejay Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 You may be confusing it with the Earl's Court site.

eude Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Bit of a shot in the dark here, but I don't suppose anyone noted what the microhead was in use at the Cort Booth? I only noticed it in a photo on Facebook but I didn't recognise it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Just had a look at all the photos I took at the LBGS, but I don't have any of the Cort stand I'm afraid (probably didn't take any because there were too many people standing in front of it at the time). Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't be more helpful myself as I know the guys from Proel (Cort distributors) and have been sworn to secrecy. But it's all on here if you have a look.

Dingus Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) [quote name='Shockwave' timestamp='1362334240' post='1998540'] Here it is! Brubaker Brute MJXSC4. The new Singlecut import. Lovely electronics and fit and finish overall. The action is pretty damn low, though might have to shim it to get any noticeably lower. The MM pup really sings in this. An excellent Musicman alternative. The hardware is rock solid. Either way its a nice entry into the Singlecut world, will I keep it? Who knows! Tom Richards (Who was the guy selling them on the Bassdirect stand) Was a lovely chap and I hope he enjoyed his stay in blighty! The neck join is a real deep bolt on. Very interesting. This could be one of the first Brute SC's sold in the UK though I would have to get confirmation from Tom about that. R [/quote] [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1362334597' post='1998544'] Ask your wife not to damage it too much as she beats you to death with it..JOOI what type of case will it come in if you bequeath it to me?? [/quote] That deep-set neck joint was actually designed with spousal abuse in mind - Shockwave's wife can beat him with it as hard as she likes and the bass should be fine .

TomRichards Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Yes, first Brubaker single cut ever sold in Europe, let alone the UK. Hope you enjoy the bass and thanks for the compliment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
