LewisK1975 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 As above I got a day off tomorrow and am going looking for a new amp. Looking for somewhere with a good selection of heads, and who'll let me try them using my own bass and cab (not an 8x10!, a barefaced supercompact). I'm in South Wales, willing to travel anywhere in between Birmingham and the south coast.. I know about Bass Direct in Warwick, definitely on the radar, anywhere else?? Cheers guys Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Wherever you go I'd make an appointment so they have the time and space set aside for you. Bass Direct has to be the best shout really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weststarx Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 PMT in Birmingham might be worth a look - its a massive store but PMT only seem to ever stock either Ashdown or TC Electronic amps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yeah I went to their Bristol store a few weeks back and all that was there was TC / Ashdown and and OTB500. Nice chaps tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmccombe7 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 +1 for Bass Direct. Never been but bought few cabs, amps and bass from Mark. Always great to deal with. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Definitely... just make sure you call them to ask what they will likely have on the date you want to travel. I'm sure they can speak for themselves, but they are basically a higher end shop and vet all the gear they stock so no makeweghts.. That is certainly my impression but maybe Molan could put it better. I wouldn't want to commit them but I barely get away from there in under 4 hrs... If you are travelling, I think Bass Direct is about an hr north from Bass Gear.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
