I'll be there for a pint. Might bring the Katana Mini and a Squier Strat along for show and tell.

Any Kemper/Helix/AxFX modeller users bring kit along? Keen as to get an idea how a digital rig compares.

I can bring an AX8 and Line6 L3. It might feel a bit emasculated next to Hacksaw's Axe 3 though!

Got a nice Classic Series strat I'd like to put up against an AVRI or similar if anyone's got one.
Loving it so far

I have a small pile of custom built tube amps I might be interesting in bringing for wider hoonage
Pretty much that. There is usually a show and tell session for everyone to talk through what they've brought along, the rest of the time is spent trying to talk to other forumites over the steadily increasing volume of the louder amplifiers in the room.

haha i can imagine
Sounds cool

I'll bring Optimus set up with 6L6s. Should be interesting to cross swords with all the Fenderage. Any interest in a 12 watt Jansen with Celestion Blue?

Doozy Rebound. (Like it or not, probably the only one you'll ever meet).
Korinacaster
PRS EG with a 'For Sale' sign on it. :P
PRS SE One; if I ever get it back. Serious P90 contender.

Any interest in acoustics or are we all too butch?

And whatever I have on the pedalboard at the time.

Not me. Used to bring my J bass and amp along, but am bass-ampless these days.

Sentence one: Sure. Bring your Princeton please?
Sentence two: Go away.

Sadly no, that’s long gone. Great wee amp that. My Princeton fills that spot now.
