Hmmm dammit I went down as far as Swadlincote this weekend picking something up myself. Unfortunately nothing on the cards but if you do struggle I'm happy for an hour's trek down the M1 for a basschatter 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bass is going to be a bit down and left of you and needs to be coming even more down and left ideally. However if someone living down the M1 is heading west any time that could still work. Let's see if anyone wants to join in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dammit I'm sure my rents are heading to Devon in over a week, if I was still 12 and lived at home I'd be going with, unfortunately I probably wouldn't be on here as I didn't start playing until 14 😂. Well if you it gets stuck in the Midlands I'll dig out, be cool to see this go along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oopsdabassist Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Ok so how far down the M1 have you got it planned so far? I'm up for a run up as far as about Rugby, and can hold in MK or take as far west as Reading if that helps join some dots? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brimingham Airport/NEC area ,Worcester, down to Cheltenham/Gloucester, on to Bristol etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get it to Tamworth from Derby I reckon we could be onto a winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said don’t bother insuring it, they’ll only wriggle out of responsibility if anything goes wrong😈 True story! Yes, they smashed the nut on a prosebass despite it being Bubble wrapped and then enclosed in four inches of solid polystyrene on each side and then boxed. Apparently I “didn’t protect it enough”. Idiot buyer then signed for it. The box had so many holes in it that it looked like it had been machine-gunned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
