Houston Area GTG- Jan 3rd

[need4mospd]

I'll put it on the calendar.
I can bring the Schroeder/Markbass rig if there's any interest. And if I finish my Yamaha defret/refinish by then I'll bring that.

 

[Tommygunn]

I'd be glad to bring them. This will be a great chance for us all to A/B different basses, pedals and amps side by side.

Of course I cannot be responsible for my basses actions if you play anything other than root... 5th... root....5th.

They just won't know how to act.

Hahahahaha

 

[WorkinOnIt]

I will be there.

McHaven - you already have me down in your first post, but just to recap:

MarkBass 121p combo
Geddy
SX 5 w/JZ3 Audere preamp
EHX Bass Big Muff Pi

Folks have probably seen all this gear before, but I'll toss it all in the car and bring it anyway. Hmmm, might need to bring the guitar stands along too and get everything labeled somehow. Looking forward to this.

 

[McHaven]

I'll bring everything I've got.

Basses:
Fender Jaguar
SX Jazz with Rio Grandes
1970s El Degas Rickenfaker

Amps:
GK 1001RB
Avatar 410 NEO

Effects:
Boss TU-2
Electronix Submarine
EHX Polychrous
EHX Bass Micro Synth
EHX Pulsar
EHX Stereo Electric Mistress
EHX Nano Stone
Fuzzrocious Mail Order Muff
Hairy Elephant (wooly mammoth clone)
Dunlop Bass Crybaby
I think I've forgotten some.

Random:
Korg Pandora (fun little headphone amp)
I've thought about bringing my electronic drum kit, if anyone wants to play that, or play with a drummer. I don't know if I can fit it along with my bass stuff.

I'd also like to encourage everyone to bring their cameras, etc.

I hope to be able to swing by. I have a gig that night in the Memorial City area that starts at 6, so maybe early? And will donations be taken at the door?

 

[J. Crawford]

The day before my birthday! I cant make it, obviously a big trip , but Im sure itll be a fun time!

If you would like to donate, we can take it at the door, to try and even out the rental cost.

 

[5StringBlues]

^ I think donations will be voluntary now as a few of us have the building fee covered.


Since one of our fellow TB'rs has contributed half of the fee himself,I would suggest any further donations be used to pay him back at least some of the money.



Edit: McHaven beat me to it.

Hey Mc,when do you get into Houston for X-mas break anyway?

I'll be leaving Nacogdoches on the 18th.

 

[brandinstroy]

If I can make it I will bring my Callowhill (that is if I have it by then) and a fretless I am building at the moment.

 

[BioDriver]

Hey McHaven, you said you wanted to try Ry's pink Triangle muff, right? It'd be interesting to see how that and the Mail Order compare.

Incredibly interested. I'm so jealous of it. Its the coolest looking of all his muffs, IMO. I wish I still had my Walking Delay. We could have 3 Fuzzrocious pedals in one place. I think that'd be the highest concentration aside from Ryan's house.

 

[pbass888]

wow i live on 26th street just off main, ill definitely stumble over.ill bring my basses and i can help out a lil coinage.
a sterling mm hs
fender jazz plus

[Valerus]

interesting. I'll try my best to make it!

 

[Tommygunn]

Hey guys! My guitarist (not guitard) wants to come, he is looking into playing bass. I'm loaning him my dirnt after I get my refinish project finished. So he's good about being safe with stuff. Could I bring him? Thx!

And I told him when he gets the dirnt he has to become a member on here... just FYI

I think that's allowable, but he'll be your responsibility

 

[Tommygunn]

Ok, I'll keep him on a short lead LOL

alright i did it just got back from work [Cinemark], requested off for the 3rd, reason... "church function." it may seem shaky but it will pass, mainly because it wont require any kind of note, and trust me the managers are note Nazis.

 

[Drucifer]

Cool, I'm going to check it out fer sure.
