silverfoxnik Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Nice idea for a site but it needs to link & references to Basschat please.. And also, being selfish, please can you include references to Wal basses and Leigh Gorman (BowWowWow).. Very biased I know, but you've got to ask haven't you.. Quote

We'll get Basschat up right away. Don't know how we could have overlooked it! Wal was on our list, but they don't seem to have a website. Anybody? We'll get Leigh Gorman up, too. Thanks for the heads-up. Quote
BigRedX Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 The Wal site is just a holding page at the moment, but once production is up and running again it will be [url="http://www.walbass.co.uk/"]here[/url]. You're also missing the following luthiers/manufacturers (all from my bass collection) [url="http://borntorock.com/index.html"]Born To Rock[/url] [url="http://www.gusguitars.com/"]Gus[/url] [url="http://www.lacemusic.com/index.php"]Lace[/url] [url="http://www.lightwave-systems.com/"]Lightwave[/url] [url="http://www.seibass.com/"]Sei[/url] [url="http://www.tokaijapan.com/"]Tokai[/url] Also it would be nice to see [url="http://www.mickkarn.net/"]Mick Karn[/url] on the players page.

Dood Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 [quote name='RussFM' post='505571' date='Jun 4 2009, 04:32 PM']Slipknot?[/quote] Or possibly Paul Gray as in 'Eddie and the Hotrods', 'UFO' and 'The Damned' - not 100% sure about the damned, but he defintely toured with Captain Sensible's band. Awesome Gibson Thunderbird tone and WHAT A PLAYER! Quote
OldGit Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 [quote name='Hot Tub' post='506118' date='Jun 5 2009, 09:27 AM']October 28: Richard Bona. Jazz. Typical. [/quote] Saw him a while back and he's quite a bit broader than "jazz" might suggest. Lots African influences, melody, sence of humour .. Quote

I have a lot of time and respect for Rolf Harris, especially considering his innovative version of 'Stairway To Heaven'! Not to mention his expertise on the Didgeridoo, Wobble Board and Stylophone. Even more so, with the paintbrush. Rolf rules! Steve Quote

His site is here: [url="http://www.dennisdunawayproject.com/"]http://www.dennisdunawayproject.com/[/url] Thanks Quote
