stingrayfan Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) Go on then... which one bit of kit (bass, amp or FX) do you regret selling on? Doesn't matter if it's a tuner or an Ampeg 8x10. Mine's a Fender Rumble 100 combo. Sold it on when I got a head and cab. Wish I still had it to take to rehearsal rooms with me as all their amps are terrible and that was a great combo for practice. Never distorted. And yours....? ps Anyone got a Rumble 100 going cheap?! Edited May 26, 2008 by stingrayfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul h Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 MTD Kingston. Best playing bass I have ever played by far. I just hated the sound. Of course I should have kept it and swapped out the electronics but I needed the cash. Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderthumbs Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Probably my Ibanez Blazer that I flogged to a guy at work years and years ago. Natural finish with black pickguard. Very similar to one someone was selling here recently (but without the upgrades obviously). Still looked gorgeous and played great. Doh!

BigRedX Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Red Hagstrom Futurama bass. Bought it for £30 in 1982 and sold for the same less than a year later. It was a horrible bass horrible in almost every way but it was in immaculate condition, so the reason for wanting to have not sold it back 1983 is so I could sell it now for a lot more...

Stag Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) my old Marshall 12" Bass 60w combo. Wonderful sound... would love that back and use it with the Rick O Sound output and another amp... perhaps my old 1x15" Ampeg combo. They would have been a lovely combination thru the Rick O Sound box Edited May 26, 2008 by Stag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telebass Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My '75 Precision. first decent bass I ever had, mine from new... My '68 Jazz...although it was a dog, really, and for it, I got... My '69 Telecaster Bass - sheer madness to let that go. My '81 Precision Fretless - bad decision, but led to... My Tokai Hard Puncher, which was brilliant, but after which I gave up for 17 years... Quite a lot, really! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Hmmmm... The obvious one is my old Status SII (#402) which now resides in California as far as I know. The other one, surprisingly, is the Candy Cola S1 Jazz I sold a few weeks back to fund my 1990 Status. The S1 Jazz was excellent. Best jazz I've ever played!

Josh Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My orange Spector Euro, it was my first real high-end bass. But being young and stupid got the better of me, hopefully I'll see it again sometime, who knows. And maybe my $$... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashgeezer Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My very first bass which was a peavey milestone 1, it certainly wouldn"t have had fender shaking in their boots but it was my first and i regetted selling it an hour after i let it go (bills needed to be paid) you all know the score. I also had a laney session reverb 60 w guitar amp which was ok but it packed up on me so off it went to the tip, in a strange way i miss that amp.

clauster Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My '78 sunburst/maple usa Precision. Sold it for peanuts (less than £200) in the early 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Currently, my T-bird, but that might be rectified this summer if I decide I like the wide neck. However, I don't think I'll miss my Aerodyne once I get rid of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johngh Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Alembic Mark King Signature, bought new by me, and I actually sold it for a profit 3 years later. Always regret selling it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Thought Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I had a Japanese 60's reissue P-bass which I sold about 15 years ago when my old band bit the dust. Wish I'd hung on to it as it would make a really good second bass now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewblack Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I had an Aria proII fretless. Sometime back in the early 80's. I didn't like the sound. When I look back on the kit I put it through and the fact that I never changed strings or cleaned the ones I had, I could weep. Ah well.

wulf Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 SWR Workingman's 12". Since part exchanging this for my present Ashdown rig, I've done very few gigs where I've needed to provide more power than the SWR could put out and plenty when a portable little combo would have been just the ticket. Ah, well.... Wulf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 My '73 Jazz: My Tony Frankin 'P: My Duck Dunn 'P: My '72 Tele - I would have refinned this in 'burst and put a Dark Star in it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merton Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 My MIM Jazz V, I'd heavily modded it (Barts, J-Retro mainly) and it was a great sounding bass, but just not as good to play as my Groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Shouldn't have: I sold my Dynacord BS412 combo, the best sounding amp I have heard, to fund a disasterous Boogie 400+. I sold my first Wal 5 string. What was I thinking!! Should have: I had the money, but not the foresight. When I brought my Precision I should have got another! I had the chance to buy Alan Spenners Wal, also owned by Martin Kemp, but didn't as it was a 4 string! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took it back and swapped it for a Dynacord and loved it. Even had other guitarists asking him to name his price for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
