Took the words right out of my mouth.

+1 for both. Recently re-strung my 5-string, and it needs a little TLC, so would welcome the opportunity to really understand how to set up my bass properly.

And I'm sure there'll be a pint (or three) in it

Cheers, and see you all there in October

[Paul S]

Just a thought - is there anyone coming along who has a double bass and could a quick demo on slap bass?

[alexclaber]

Would anyone mind if I brought along some testing gear and did some RTA on as many of the amps present as possible? Would be really useful to build up a database on the natural response curves of various amps.

More than happy to let you do it to mine, could bring my Superfly too if that would help?

Yep, that would be groovy!

I know the frequency response plots won't tell the whole picture of the amps by any means, but it should prove useful for advising people on gear pairings, plus I'm interested to find out what's going on below 100Hz them - whether they have any highpass filtering and how the bass EQ is voiced (peaking/shelving, what frequency and Q).

I'll probably be coming with a DB but my slap is crap. I'm a bit Ray Brown rather than Milt Hinton.

[Paul S]

Not to worry! Be nice just to see one being played. I have a mid-long term plan to learn to play DB so will most likely be picking your brains for a while if you don't mind.

[silverfoxnik]

Great idea about set-ups; can the people who are up for helping start it send me a PM, thanks?

Alex; that's a good idea too and I am happy for you to do that test on my gear

[silverfoxnik]

Just a thought about Joe White.. He did do Stingrayfan's G&L and it did have to be re-done..

Having said that, I think he did quite a few other set-ups though and AKAIK, they were ok...

You can do amps through the ages if my Superbass makes it - that said it had a major rebuild a couple of years back so it might be a case of Triggers broom!

If dood can be persuaded to do a POD X3 Live workshop, that would be super cool. If he's going that is.

I will have wrapped up my Masters in Applied Music Psychology by the time of the Bash, so would anyone be interested in an informal lecture/talk on Music Psychology?
