keeponehandloose Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 i would like to see the Duke in the flesh! My contribution would be 2 Kays strung with guts and probably a Promethean rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 This is my first post for months, as its not far from here count me in please I will bring my Gedo half carved with spirocores on and my Yita-music bow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassace Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I'll try to get my Bryant and the Upton in the motor, and there'll just be room for an AI Clarus amp and Crazy 8 cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oggiesnr Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I'll bring my "breathed on" Antoni as an example of what can be done with a good set up and the judicious application of a little money. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Hmmm, I shouldn't do it, as time is ever so precious these days but I'm tempted..... Just wondering whether Sarah & I could squeeze 2x Dbs into a car and share a lift.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Blurgh, have done a diary-stupid and will actually be in Cape Town from 2nd October. Have to count me out I'm afraid, but have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah thomas Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Marc, I may be staying with a friend who lives near Derby but nothing is organised yet. I'm pretty sure we could get 4 double basses into the CRV so if you want a lift we could do it that way. I'm going anyway, so let's see nearer the time.

gypsyjazzer Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Count me in. Had something in the diary on the 5th October but have managed to change that-so all being well will be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Just logging thpughts here. I guess it would be useful to print a page giving details of strings/pickups etc so that we can easily log what combination of what does it for us (or not).

stingrayPete1977 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I can certainly make a little A4 page to put next to it so you all know exactly what you are trying out, no problem and as a total novice looking to try other basses and string types/tension it really would help rather than people constantly having to repeat it to everyone, good call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulKing Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Yeah I'd be up for that, family diary permitting. All my basses have guts and Lamberts... I can share a bit of slappity too, though I wouldn't claim a masterclass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulKing Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Keeponehandloose, you're up to 2 Kay's now? Ace! M1 and S9? Where did the blondie come from? I could bring Kay and King Mortone, both pre 1940... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I presume I am OK to bring a mate along to this event, he is a guitarist for which I appologise but he is also into making things from wood like guitars and turned stuff etc so he fancies seeing some close up fancy wooden stuff Is there a fee per head for the doo or whats the deal, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassace Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 It's not long to the Double Bass Bash and the final details have been moved to the Events section at the front of the Forum. So could you add your name if you are coming and any queries can be dealt there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gypsyjazzer Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Anybody going to the 'DB Bash' who is playing all gut strings? I have yet to hear gut 'live' as would like to try. ----temped to buy---but the £££££'s!-------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtroun Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I'm intending to come. I only have gut D and G strings but I would call that the majority of the gut sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invicta59 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Sounds interesting - I need to shuffle some stuff around to make the date, but I could bring my crappy Zeller strung with Golden Slaps, GK 1001RBII, GK 4x10 neo cab and a fEARful 12/6 if I can work stuff out, and anyone is interested (and if the venue doesn't have a sound limiter!)
