OK fellow TBers. The date is almost here, so here's all of the info you should need.
WHEN: Saturday, March 7th @ 2PM.
WHERE: 1300 Idlewood Circle, Gastonia, NC 28054
BASS GUITAR: Feel free to bring your own, however, I have several of mine that will be available and Gard is bringing a few.
RIGS: I have several that will be set up - from vintage to newer - so we'll be good to go on those.
PARKING: I'm on a cul-de-dac with space for probably 10 or so vehicles around it. Also, my driveway is fairly long and you'll see an area with white rock on the ground on the left hand side of the drive near the house. This area is used for parking too. Probably 3-5 vehicles can park there if parked at an angle, and the driveway still be clear. If more space is
needed, there are other good options, but we'll go into that if needed on Saturday.
I'll have snacks and sodas. If you need anything other, please provide for yourself.
Looking forward to seeing all who can make it. I'm sure we'll enjoy the event.
My home/office phone is 704-867-8056.

Fairly serious family illness calls me out of town this weekend. Hopefully next time, thanks again for hosting it.

I'm in the Lake Norman area, just got into bass (actually, my first bass is on its way to me from a TB classified), and I've been scouring TB/craigslist/eBay for the perfect rig deal but haven't seen it yet.
I had to ask since a gang of TBers will be together so close to me. Apologies if that's inappropriate. |

MK - more specifically, what are you looking for in your rig?

OK, here's a thought guys, how about everyone tossing out a "gear I'm bringing" list, might help keep overlap to a minimum, just in case...
Here's my list:
NS Design CR5M (well used and worn)
Roscoe Century Signature VI Fretted
Roscoe Century Signature VI Fretless
Eden WT550
Epifani UL310 Series 2
I was hoping we'd have a Century Standard or two I could "borrow" for the day, but unfortunately, no joy....we'll just have to settle for the fancy versions!

You'd be very surprised at how much more air a 210 will move compared to a 112...

The GTG was terrible. Gard was the ONLY one to show!  We made the best of a beautiful Saturday afternoon. For a couple of hours or so, we had good converstaions, thumped on his 2 Roscoes and electric stand-up through my vintage Sunn Coliseum with 2 Sunn 1-18 Cerwin Vega folded horn cabs and petted my 3 dogs.

As for the GTG overall, though, that was a very disappointing turnout.
