geoffbassist Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow, it should be a great day! I'm bringing my bass with Evah weichs if anyone fancies having a try. Cheers Geoff Quote
bassace Posted October 4, 2014 Author Posted October 4, 2014 Thanks Sylvia. Can anyone do pics, my skills haven't progressed since the Box Brownie if you can remember what that is. 'Course you can't. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 I will bring my Samsung phone which has a decent camera and it will upload automatically to photobucket when I get home so those who understand these things (not me!) Can share as they please. I'm looking to get a go on anything I can Geoff, I have no idea what other basses strung with various strings feel or sound like, I'm happy to let everyone have their way with 'Dolly' in return!

stingrayPete1977 Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 If anyone has actual camera skills/equipment definitely bring both though, lol Quote
Mr Bassman Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 If I can get em in the car I'll have a mixture of Spiro weigh, D'addario, Kolstein Heritage and Super Sensitive. Maybe I'll bring some assorted used. Quote
