That sounds like it could be a very expensive habit. I suppose it could be worse, though. At least you haven't discovered Alembic basses yet. If spending money on music gear helps you deal with depression then I won't criticise you for doing it. However, I can pretty much guarantee that sooner or later it will do you more harm than good because of the strain debt problems put on relationships. Also, buying stuff as a pick-me-up won't keep working forever. The novelty wears off. What then? If you're looking for happiness in material things you will always end up disappointed. It's easier said than done, I know, but it's better to seek help for the root cause of the problem than just treat the symptoms yourself, otherwise you're just storing up trouble for yourself. If chronic illness and medication are partly causing the depression, that might be able to be addressed by a specialist. Don't be frightened to ask for help. Depression is an illness, nothing more and nothing less, and there's lots of different approaches to treating it. Even if past interventions have failed, there's always another way to try. Sooner or later you will find something that works well for you, and then you will be able to enjoy music gear and everything else in life even more.

One of the newer Classic Vibes. Upgraded pups/loom, bridge and black plate. Not weighed it but I’d say it’s less than 9lb. I can leave the straplocks on or put the original pins back on. I do not have any of the other original parts. In pretty good condition, I’ve tried to photograph any damage I can see. The back of the neck is lightly sanded, which improves it in my opinion. It’s a really nice bass in one of my favourite colour schemes but something has cropped up that I’ve got my eye on. Collection from Blackburn Lancs is preferable but buyer can arrange a courier at their expense and I’ll add a beat up Gator case that is functional for shipping and gigging but has some issues.

£50 price reduction Trades - X Touch Universal. Try me with anything, I can only say no 😁 Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Chrome hardware and a vintage sunburst finish. Mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and a basswood body. A retro instrument with a modern twist." Maple Top Mahogany Body Mahogany Neck Lignum Rosa Fingerboard Entwistle MBH Bridge Pickup Entwistle MBN Neck Pickup Jumbo Frets 42mm Nut Width 30" Scale Length Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.

P-ZARN started following Cort A4 with John East Uni pre preamp Firm £400

Cort A4 with John East Uni Preamp. The preamp I fitted myself. Bass generally in good condition with a number of small dings on the lower and rear edges. General minor wear and tear. I still have original electrics [and knobs] and would include these. The bass plays really well and the sound is considerably improved with the East installed. Everything works. No issues with neck. Comes with an as new Thomann padded gig bag. More than welcome to come and try it out. The bass I bought second hand about 7 years ago on ebay if I remember correctly, and the preamp I bought here on Basschat about the same time . I have far too much equipment/basses and need to cut back. Ask any questions. Would prefer pick up although happy to send at buyers expense Firm £400

super al started following Lead guitarist wanted (Salisbury/South Wilts area)
-
My band (Felis Leo) have lost their lead guitarist, we've looked everywhere, back of the sofa, under the stairs, nada! So we need a new one, we're looking for a team player with a gsoh and knows their way round the fretboard and a wah wah pedal 😁 We play originals tunes with a hint of classic rock, grunge and punk. There's a few new songs that need a new guitarist to put a new stamp on our sound...take us forward with a new feel. Get in touch if you live round ere and this would suit you or you know someone who might like to audition. Cheers, Al

Most bass players are incredibly chilled people. We have to be. There's only so many drummers you can kill before someone starts to notice. -
You could try the Chappell Roan dress. That would be quite an obvious AI image 😄

My Wal has dots where your fingers go. Loaned to a friend who proceeded to play it a quarter tone flat ... until he realised and stopped looking at his fingers.

Absolutely love this! I recommend Bob Log III & Clown core for similar weird excellence -
I think the way I'm looking at it like this. First, maybe it depends on the image and how it's used. 2nd, I look at like this. A lot of us use cool lighting and smoke machines because it makes the band look good. AI depending on how it's used is just another marketing tool. I don't think we can fool anyone. I never look like this. Lol Daryl
