Well it could be considered rude not to let a host of prospective buyers see the Jabbas...


I doubt I'll be the owner of them by the time of the bash, edit me off the list old man.

@scrumpymike - everything he owns unless he sells it between now and then

@Rich - Shuker 5-string, OLP/Jaydee fretless 'Ray, Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2, Barefaced Super 12T cab. 

@Kateplaysbass - Ashdown CTM-100 and LB212, Pawn Shop Mustang, medium scale ACG Finn, and maybe also ACG Recurve and Bass Collection 5 string fretless, since I'm thinking about offloading both of those

@Woodinblack -  Bongo, just to wind people up

@Richard R - Brawley 5 string, as usual, HB 5 String thing with Roland hex pickup and V-bass COSM synth.

@BreadBin - something interesting

@chyc - a very nice double bass, an Ashbory Bass, GSS 06B400MKD combo, and possibly Warwick Streamer fretless, Sandberg Custom 5 with Delano XTender, Sandberg TT Marcus Miller rip-off, BC 110T cabinet, BC 112mk3 cabinet, Acoustic Image Coda

@TRBboy - Frost Custom Basses PJ5 (my first build from scratch), Sandberg California TT5 Passive, possibly my customised Yamaha BBN5, Markbass Stu Amp 1000w, GR Bass GR 410+ (1200w, 4 ohm), a fairly unexciting pedal board 😅, & converted Trace 1x15" cab, if it's in a satisfactory state by then

@Stub Mandrel - Joyo BadASS & PJB C2, three or four hopefully 'interesting' basses.

@Frank Blank, we will miss you at the Bash. Our long distance Brother In Crumble. :(  Why you giving up, if you don't mind me asking?


I think it’s an amalgam of many things but the sum of those parts is I’m just not enjoying any of it, rehearsing, writing or performing. I’ve got to an age where I don’t want to waste any time doing stuff I don’t want to.

If you type the @ sign followed by your name, and then click on the little window thingy, it comes up as @obbm.

Sadly it didn't work.  Maybe someone can edit it.

I should be there...  I would have liked to bring my new, inbound Sandberg VM5 fretless which was ordered in April 2023, but just found out it wont land until April next year!!! 😫

 

I'm now working with two new brands, so, hold your breath, won't be bringing Markbass!!  Shock horror....!!!

 

I now work with Caveman Audio and another bass brand which will hopefully be of interest, and a surprise on the day!

 

Caveman Preamps and Compressor are designed to work in a different way to most other conventional preamps, in that Steen, the danish designer, considers that his gear should be at the front and end of your signal chain....  Cracking gear, all analogue 1073 inspired with no compromise, up there with the likes of Noble...

Ooh, a personal P shootout. :)  If my Thunder 1A wasn't currently up on blocks, I'd bring it along just to chuck in the mix for a laugh :lol: 

 

I could bring my Thunder 1, but it sounds more like a Precision than any precision...

Haven't had anyone take me up on a lift, so what opinions are there on cheap places to stay? I'm looking at Travelodge, but what usually happens after the event? Is there a post-event pub session, in which case walking distance from my lodgings would be important, or does everyone scatter immediately afterwards?

 

Updated the list to add a requested cabinet to what I'm bringing.

@chyc - Double bass, Ashbory Bass, GSS 06B400MKD combo, BC 112mk3 cabinet, and on the request any of Warwick Streamer fretless, Sandberg Custom 5 with Delano XTender, Sandberg TT Marcus Miller rip-off, BC 110T cabinet, , Acoustic Image Coda

@TRBboy - Frost Custom Basses PJ5 (my first build from scratch), Sandberg California TT5 Passive, possibly my customised Yamaha BBN5, Markbass Stu Amp 1000w, GR Bass GR 410+ (1200w, 4 ohm), a fairly unexciting pedal board 😅, & converted Trace 1x15" cab, if it's in a satisfactory state by then

I'll post some suggestions for cheap accommodation. People do tend to go their separate ways after the Bash. Can be quite an intensive and tiring day - especially for the organisers 🙂

True. That said, I wouldn't object to a swift half afterwards if anyone else fancied it..?
