CoronaVirus Gear Sale? - How many of you are considering or are already selling bass gear because of financial losses incurred by not being able to work?
-
Not really as a result of financial losses (yet- hubris and all that) but more of a reality check: do I really need two amps, six basses, all those pedals I'm not using etc. etc.
It's funny, having spent some quality time with my gear for the first time in ages (other than gigging) has really made me think that I really don't need quite as much stuff as I have/had.
Strangely enough, I'm enjoying my music a lot more as a result. Perspective and all that I guess.

Like Old Horse Murphy, the financial impact hasn't properly arrived for me yet, but I've been trying to shift some stuff I don't really need in preparation for that eventuality.
Oddly enough, a couple of lower priced basses that I've had listed for a while sold this past week. Undoubtedly more people are online because they're at home, and for now at least, it seems like a modest comfort purchase is still acceptable as a result. I'm not sure it'll stay that way the further down the road we go with the crisis though, once money gets tighter.
