BassAdder60 Posted Tuesday at 15:08 Share Posted Tuesday at 15:08 I’ve ended up with just two near identical to play, sound and look Pbasses That way I can take both, use one or the other or swop at the break etc and they will sound and play the same. I like that concept, get a good bass you really like and then find one more as back up etc Do I need it probably not but handy to have just in case 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonK Posted Tuesday at 16:29 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:29 It just occured to me what this thread says about us all - I was at a gig in a student bar on Friday night (The Railway in Winchester) watching three superb up and coming bands who reminded me of the days when you played whatever you could lay your hands on, often held together by duct tape!

Dan Earp Posted Tuesday at 18:19 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:19 I provide pa as well as Bass. Sadly I forgot to pack my small GK amp with all the other kit I was carrying….so I plugged into my PA…wasn’t even the best one …. Only the drummer mentioned it was slightly harder to stay locked on. Vocalist and guitarist said they didn’t realise. I’m sure that says something about my playing but not sure what………. I used to take a spare bass, but frankly, with upgraded kit there isn’t space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
