Linus27 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I only want one bass to finish my collection, a Fender 51 Precision Reissue. That's all I need and I'm done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I think @bassfan should start putting some odds against our names as to who's gonna make it through January 10/2 against for you Walshy 😁 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I expect I'm going to be the first. Last night at rehearsal my Boss wireless system was playing up again. It's been sporadic and so far been fine at gigs, but ive lost conference in it. I think i need something more robust like a Smooth hound. Just working out the logistic of getting something like that, because the receiver will have to sit on the floor next to my Helix. I dont want to start using my pedal board again though.

It wouldn't have worked, anyway. My wife is currently at work keeping me in the style to which I have become accustomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could lend you my spare SH and you could (if you like it) buy it off me for its current market value but on 1 Jan 2021. Nothing pre-agreed of course and you can return it to me at any time for no cost. ...Phew, bacon saved! Anyone else looking for a loophole, please PM me. My rates are sometimes reasonable.

Yeah, but you've been a fan of Ibbys, you play through a BF SC and you're a bass player who's never used pedals live in 40(?) years of gigging. And no one has ever sacked you for not using a compressor. Not once. What's not to love about that? 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson_51_ Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Already Struggling with this, depending on if i can get it for the right price i may be first out. Need a backup bass for the main band (as i sold my old one last week) and one has just appeared that i'm interested in.

Wilson_51_ Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 It’s ok! He wouldn’t go as low as I wanted (quite rightly to be honest) so the early wobble has passed! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the nice thing to having signed up to this thread. You know you shouldn't be getting any gear: so you low ball. If they say "no" you still feel virtuous (albeit only just, after all you've flirted big time right? 😁) If they say yes, then you've stopped caring about being on this thread. Win win! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
