It looks like another great event. Unfortunately I was way up in Aberdeen at the time! No worries, Chris. I'll check back with Colin. Yes indeed, another good bash judging by the pics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDaddy Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 @BillyBass's Charvel's were gas inducing, and @eude and I managed to compare the ACG Mule and Rob Allen Mouse. There's very little if anything between them. The feel, weight, sound, are practically the same, but a new Mule costs the same as a pre-owned Mouse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJPJ Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Gutted I missed this due to a family gathering. Looked so good. @Kingbassist I'm in Leatherhead and have a BF BigTwin Gen3 that you are welcome to try out. I probably down to Andertons this weekend at some point so don't mind chucking in the back of the car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Well if there is an upside to me pulling out because of my knee, me and the wife (plus mother in law) are all positive for COVID, so I'd probably have infected a few of you... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'll take that as an upside to my not being able to make it either. 😉 Wishing you all a speedy recovery. 👍🤞 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and good thing I wasn’t there as it turns out that I don’t have an infectious case of tonsillitis… rather I’ve got an even more infectious case of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease so currently my extremities are all covered with painful blisters. Definitely not something that my fellow bassists with gigs coming up would want! Yuck. Fully expect a Defra van to pull up outside the house any moment and blokes in hazmat suits to drag me off to be incinerated… 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyBass Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I felt like a kid in a toy shop a week before Christmas on Sunday. Thanks very much to @cetera for letting me play with his Spectors and also to @Merton whose TE1200 and Barefaced 210 is a match made in heaven @Steve Browning with his Mesa TT800s @Happy Jack with his Reverend Watt Plower @Mudpupwith his surprisingly good Cort. and @MacDaddy @orangefridayand @eude for their weird and wonderful stuff. And thanks to @Hamster, Mrs@Hamster and @Kingbassist for making it all happen 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonunders Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Sorry I couldn't join you. My son finished work at 03.30 Sunday morning and I'm taxi service. Didn't want to risk driving the 3 hour each way trip from Norfolk. I'm not as young as I used to be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfoxnik Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Morning Folks, So, what are the scores, George Dawes?

And then however many weeks later… on Thursday, 3/4 of my thumbnail dropped off. On the bright side it looks like it’s growing a new one underneath… seems like a three or so other nails are on the way… 🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
