Basschat breaking new ground, as ever. I'm looking forward to spending some quality time in the banjo shop. And I believe they also stock accordions! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please bring a guitar stand. Ideally, I'd like to limit this to ten or twelve basses, otherwise it might drag; I don't feel we need to duplicate basses...for instance, there's no need to blind test five Fender Jazz basses, so one will do, but it would be fun to have a Sire P and J as well. Let me know what you have and what you're happy for <insert basschat member's name here> to dent play on the day. In my head I figure it would be useful to play a four short pieces on each bass with everything full on/open, fingers/pick, clean and then with a bit of dirt (GED2112). Maybe two or three minutes per bass tops. Vote and move along. We can mark each others papers when we're done. Paul/NJ What are you looking for? Apart from my Spectors, the most "normal" bass I have is an Overwater Custom Jazz. Happy to bring along something a bit different. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/122908-a-few-of-thegreeks/?page=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyJohnson Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 OK, just an update on the bass shootout, confirmed I have: Gibson Thundrbird IV Rickenbacker 4003 Spector NS2 Epiphone Thunderbird (one of the new ones) Mike Lull JAXT4 I have a provisional nod from a mate who is attending (who doesn't post here) that he'll make a Fender Precision, a Fender Jazz and a Sire of some sort available. I'll bring along some other stuff. It would be nice to have a couple of Warwicks, a Stingray, a Wal perhaps. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A load of pedals - EBS Compressor, Chorus & Octave, Dr Green Bass reverb & Joyo D-Seed echo and a small Pedaltrain board & bag (Mini I think) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone bringing a guitar for the jam room? I could bring along a HB Tele which Gary Mac modded for me with a Bigsby. I've only used it for about an hour - I'd be happy to get the opinions of other on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
