smaz Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Huge thanks to everyone involved in organising & hosting the event. It was great fun, really enjoyed it - ended up staying longer than I was meant to! Whoops... Good to meet a few friends, as well as get chatting to new ones & try out some different gear. That P-bass that Shockwave had was lovely.... I was the one with the Orange terror head + barefaced can in the theatre room, for anyone wondering! Cheers Quote
Stingray5 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Still gutted I couldn't make it. Sounds like it was a good one again thanks to Colin, Nik and co. I certainly hope to make the Herts bash and LBGS - and of course next years SEBB. Looking forward to Bluejay's pics - once she has ploughed through them all. Quote
Captain Rumble Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I had a great time quieter than last year but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Thanks to Nik and all for the organization Quote
silverfoxnik Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 In advance of bluejay's photos, here's a few I took on my phone yesterday... [attachment=175343:Paul Drums.jpg] [attachment=175344:seashell.jpg] [attachment=175345:Paul & Seashell 1.jpg] [attachment=175346:Macdaddy.jpg] Quote
silverfoxnik Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 So, that'll be: Paul on drums, seashell, Paul & seashell and MacDaddy playing bassace's fabulous DB Quote
Billy Apple Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 That'll be right. A bass players conference and the first pic you put up is of the bloomin' drummer! Am I missing something here?! Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 LOL Sean, you do seem to have a problem with drummists Couple more pics from the jam room. Quote
Billy Apple Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 And now a picture of one of the organizers playing the drums! I think I'm on the wrong planet or something! Anyway, where's me pills.. Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Apologies for the rattles, squeaks and other noises - the camera's microphone was amplifying absolutely every sound coming its way, not just the speech as would have been far preferable. Quote

[/quote] No need to apologise bluejay; this is really good to see.. Thanks for the hard work in putting it together so quickly! Quote
Bradwell Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Had an excellent day, my first visit to a bass bash but will certainly come along for more. Met loads of awesome people, had a play on loads of fantastic gear and got to volume test my new rig. Thanks everyone. Quote
chris_b Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Chaps, Right after Jack's Pilates talk, I was standing by Dave (OBBM)'s rig, a Mesa Prodigy amp going into a CN212, and someone was playing an ACG 5 string bass. It only occurred to me later that I liked the sound of that combination. So can anyone tell me, which ACG bass was being played? Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 I don't remember seeing an ACG 5... These were some of the basses in the area. Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 And then hid it from my camera, by the look of it! Quote
smaz Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 It's probably that Alpher 5, next to the TC Electronic. That was on the stage when the Mesa was set up. Quote
StephenYork Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 I didn't play my Alpher through the Mesa, but was very kindly allowed to play through a TH500 and Barefaced set up which sounded sweet! There was a Wal being played at some point in that area and a couple nice P-basses. Quote
Sibob Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Yeah I had my ACG Finn SC 5string there, it was in the 'quiet' amp room, with my looping setup etc . Partly spotted in this pic I took on the day: [IMG]http://i60.tinypic.com/j665gh.jpg[/IMG] Si Quote
silverfoxnik Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 That's an impressive looking rig there Si! Quote
Sibob Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Thanks Nik, the top board is just my main gigging board. The bigger board I put together for the bash which is largely ambient sounds and looping. Si Quote
MacDaddy Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 [quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1414965739' post='2595214'] So, that'll be: Paul on drums, seashell, Paul & seashell and MacDaddy playing bassace's fabulous DB [/quote] yup, and it looks like I [i]almost [/i]knew what I was doing .

Billy Apple Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1414867990' post='2594222'] Just the one pic for the moment - taken in the foyer just before the raffle. Unfortunately quite a few people had had to leave before we took it. [/quote] Who's that giant woman standing behind Lozz? Edited November 5, 2014 by Billy Apple Quote
aud Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 My first visit to a Bass Bash, I was nervous of coming along but enjoyed the afternoon Thanks, Audrey Quote
