I'll be going, along with a couple of mates.

It’s just down the road from me but understand the bass content is modest.

£15 to go into what is basically as market seems a bit wrong to me (even though I have to begrudgingly pay it for antiques fairs).

Not many basses!

It was a bit disappointing.  For the £16 entry fee we were expecting a bit more.  Still, it was a day out to Brighton and we enjoyed our fish and chips looking over the (overcast) beach.

Unfortunetly most shows are catered to the guitar players these days.

I went last year and my memories are:

• A 70 miles 2-hours+ drive to get there, including queueing at a junction with poorly sync'd traffic lights.
• Having a pleasant chat with the Bright Onion folks (but they said they couldn't do the pedal I wanted).
• A good chat with a chap on another stand who had restored some vintage amps.
• Standing at a table wanting to ask something but the bloke there was just talking about himself, loudly and without pausing for breath, so I wandered off; I went back later and he was still at it, so I gave up.
• Quite a small show for the asking price and not a lot there.
• Going into Brighton after (haven't been for years), taking a stroll around the lanes, and having a rather expensive (but nice) meal.

I didn't bother this time 'round.
