RandomProddy Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) (should quickly point out that I'm not actually french...) Hey gang, was looking for ideas for bass playing and have unfortunately fallen for Gear Aquisition Syndrome! Hope you guys can give advice. Been learning bass on and off for a year or two and am now getting a group together. Edited February 20, 2011 by RandomProddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfalex v1.1 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Bienvenue a BassChat. And if you think we've got it bad with GAS, the French have it worse; Syndrome Acquisitive (de) Gear or SAG, if you prefer. So while you're gassing, spare a thought for our sagging neighbours...
