ShergoldSnickers Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 If I wasn't busy today, I'd be up there like a shot to look at those TKS cabs... and WoTs great collection of basses. Quote
The Bass Doc Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Splendid turnout today - lots of quality gear, not least the TKS cabs....mmmm. As usual, many thanks to our [s]genital[/s] genial host Michael, wateroftyne Quote
rk7 Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 +1. Bigtime thanks to Michael for organising this get-together. Met loads of nice people, saw loads of nice basses, heard loads of loud cabs! Had a terrific day. thanks again RK Quote
BassTool Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Brilliant afternoon, great to put faces to names and some stunning gear on display RK's Overwater (and Martin it's luthier!) the two Letts basses (plus the concrete one!) W11ATO's Wal amongst his other impressive basses ('me wife has bags and shoes, I have basses' he told me ) Gaz Howe's Status and Warwick Hunts purple Warwick and lovely Music Man fretless to name just a few. WOT's latest Fender also deserves a mention, superb bass and those TKS cabs.....WOW!!!! If I was going for ultra lightweight but powerful and VFM backline these babys would need serious consideration, great when played next to - but when we stepped away from them - even better Met and listened to some great players, but highlight of the day for me was Kev Charlton's masterclass on his double bass - made me feel like getting back in the car and burning me gear..... Class!! Big thanks to WOT for organising a great afternoon out, cheers everyone Johna Edited September 8, 2013 by BassTool Quote
