madshadows Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Such terribly sad news, RIP Nick, my condolences to his wife and family. My overriding memory of him was how much bass gear he bought and sold, I truly marvelled at it, a true bass man John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayman Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I can’t believe this one…… I didn’t know he was ill…… that’s horrific. We met up a couple of times buying and selling, but conversed a lot on here. That’s desperately sad….. 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 I'd not had any dealings with him here, but we were Farcebook friends and swapped "happy birthday"s and the occasional witticism there. I was very aware of how well loved he was, and he always came across as a really nice bloke. He'd been here so long, he was one of the original fixtures/fittings. It's always sad when a good man goes before his time. I offer my heartfelt condolences to all who knew and loved him. RIP old hoss. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cairobill Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Aww that's sad news - we did the Clackett Lane shuffle on a few occasions. Like me, he had a revolving collection of J basses and a suspicion that Stingrays really were the key to being a proper grown up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I thought I went through some gear, but Nicks revolving door never stopped spinning. I had a fabulous Stingray 5 that was a “keeper” and the “best bass I ever owned”….. until I flogged it to Nick a month later. I think he had it about a week before he sold it on. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhysyjob Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Awwww that’s very sad to read. I only met Nick once to do a sale, but he seemed a genuinely nice bloke and player. To me he kinda embodied what Basschat is all about really. RIP Nick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
