I have absolutely zero interest in a £2000 wonder-bass that plays like butter and sounds superb, and for which I have no justifiable need. In that case I’ll bung it in the car. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've met a fair few drummers with that attitude. So, I have a Fodera Monarch 4 and a Sandberg Cali 5 that I can bring (I've got '94 Stingray if that is interesting?). LOADs of pedals and a pair of TC combo amps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrevorR Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 22 hours ago, OutSpoon said: Do I need to bring amps and basses? Everything? Don't have to. There tends to be a big "show and tell room" where folks can set up their rig for others to have a look at and (with permission) have a try out. One of the nicest things about the Bash, chatting with others about their gear, maybe having a quick noodle on a bass you've always wondered about, oogling the instruments and amps, going "WTF" in a good way about some of the self-builds that Basschatters have brought along (don't miss the Psilos bass which @The Greek is bringing... an absolute think of wonder and a great build story by our very own @Andyjr1515 ). But if you can bring then do - there's no snob factor about the gear either. In fact, a couple of years ago my highlight was finally being able to try out a Sire Marcus Miller Jazz to see what they're like and comparing some Squier and MIM Fenders. Fair enough, last year's highlight was oogling the Psilos and a couple of other totally insane(ly brilliant but still insane) project builds from @orangefriday. If you want a flavour of what to expect have a look at the blogs that @Silvia Bluejaywrites each year. https://silviabluejay.blog/2017/12/08/basschat-se-bash-2017/ Best day of the year! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Hi All I haven't committed to get to this yet (LOVED last year's for anyone who is teetering on 'do I, don't I') because our eldest daughter is due to make me a grandad not long before - in Aberdeen! Depending on timing - shockingly, I am told that birth prediction dates take not a blind bit of notice of Bassbash schedules, although I'm a little disappointed that our son-in-law didn't think to check the calendar before he let his eye twinkle - we might be in Scotland. But if I can make it, I will make it Andy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba_the_gut Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Please could you let me know what time the doors open and close. I’m off to see a band that evening but would like to squeeze in a visit! Hoping to get one of the short scale things and one of the semi- hollow basses in a playable state for the bash but will be tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance you'll be able to bring your brilliant basses along again? I was blown away by them last time and since I've built one myself, I'll probably have 101 excited questions.
