Clarky Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I am glad my reputation has calmed down (despite the damning evidence of 13 pages of feedback) so that I am not in consideration. Besides, I collected a new (old) bass on New Year's Day 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I suspect I will "win" (cough) with @Old Horse Murphy fast closing (on 12 pages) and @AndyTravis a surprisingly limp 8! Edit: obbm and Kiogon trounce me totally (16 and 23 pages respectively) due to the high volume of sales of their most excellent cables and wiring looms, respectively Edited January 3, 2022 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BASS) GEAR ABSTINENCE CHALLENGE 2020 2022 – RULES OF THE GAME Why? To focus on making the most of the existing gear we have rather than get distracted by the next ‘shiny new thing’. What’s a fail? Any purchase or trade of new or used bass gear. 'Bass gear' = anything in your signal chain that you use to make or augment your bass sound /tone. basses, amps, cabs, pedals, PA gear (if your bass is DI’d into this) What’s ok? Anything to look after or organise your existing gear or wear & tear related. Any non-bass gear. strings, gig bags, leads, pedal boards, PSUs for pedal boards, repairs or identical replacement of existing kit, lessons, software related to existing kit non-bass musical gear (this came under a stricter Tier 2 for the completely hair shirted last year) e.g. music software not related to existing kit, keyboards, guitars, drum machines etc. By concession: unsolicited gifts of gear where you had no say in the matter! When? Any purchases between 1 Jan 2020 2022 to 31 Dec 2020 2022 @bassfan - have I found the loophole in getting an identical replacement of a previously owned pedal? Just asking for a friend of yours... close the draw…now…you’re out. Out out out, out. Gone… not ere no more, unfollow the thread. Be gone… 😂😂😂😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Here’s something… Is acceptance of trades of a lesser value +cash your way (so no spend) allowed? Or is it the taking on of new gear Not looking for an out…honest, guv. 🥴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the reason I join in and follow the thread is to witness the sheer imagination and ingenuity that goes into the excuses and attempts to wriggle round that simple premis. 😅 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
