Hope to get in touch.
I have a hundred watt bass head for sale shortly but you'll need a speaker, will sell for cheaps.
Another colleague of ours has an old Jansen Matt can borrow to start with, I think. Bloody thing is a ship anchor. It'll be a good start :winky:

Thanks for teaching out, sounds good! So we just need a drummer and I guess somewhere to play ?!

Sounds like it! I'll ask around, to see if someone turns out to be a gifted drummer. Or just a regular drummer.

No biggie, I'm not a particularly gifted guitarist so don't stress too much over the drummers talents :lol:

I've got some gear to play bass with, but didn't manage to find someone able to play and provide drums yet.

Guess we're getting there, just need to find that elusive drummer. And I guess somewhere we can play reasonably loud :thumbup:

Sounds good to me. I have a pretty wide range of musical tastes but blues is at the core. Kossoff, Hendrix, BB, Freddie & Albert King, Gary Moore SRV, Philip Sayce et al. Be good to meet up after all the lockdown stuff is over :thumbup:
