So... let's have a good selection of your amp heads - I'll be bringing an Ampeg SVT-7 PRO, Mesa Subway D800 Plus, and Ashdown RM800 EVO. I'll be bringing my Genz-Benz Shuttle 9.2, it should fit the bill quite nicely?

I have never had stage fright of any sort in 40 years of gigging, but that would make me nervous. I'd have a go as long as I wasn't the only one? I could perhaps throw in a few fingerstyle and pick bits from the previous night's ska set as it'd be fresh in my mind but my slap chops ain't what they used to be.

I've got one, I'll chuck it in the car. It's a battered old twin stand with only one U swivel thingy, but the other half of it works fine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrumpymike Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 REMINDER!! Last but not least, it's the usual shout-out for extension reels. Just chuck whatever you've got in the car - better too many than not enough! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t bring the 412 cab as my van is currently poorly in the garage so will have to shoe horn kit into the car. I’ll bring something along for the raffle - worst case a bottle.

neepheid Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Well, that's me given all my basses a dicht (wipe) - they're all now somewhere between concourse condition and "you won't catch ebola off it"... Also, I have a small contribution to the raffle... An EHX Bass Soul Food overdrive pedal and a FuzzDog Fat Furry Freak fuzz pedal (assembled from their kit by yours truly). Just had a quick test of them and they both seem to be in working order. Don't mind if you raffle them separately or as a job lot. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fuzzdog Fat Furry Freak is an excellent Woolly Mammoth clone, I've got one on my board and it's superb. Definitely raffle these two separately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 I've already pm'd @scrumpymike with my apols but MrsAndyjr1515 went down with Covid a couple of days ago and, even though I am still testing negative, it would probably be the decent thing to do (certainly, according to MrsAndyjr1515) to go down with it too.
