The four basses refers to the number of basses involved in your comings and goings - you gained four, and both of the two basses you sold were of that four.

 

I bought one and sold another, which is why mine says (2 basses)

 

Got it? Right, good

Could you have a word with my bank manager please? I prefer your way of working out a balance to his.

Nowt in or out this year - first for a long while. Must try harder.

 

(Largely down to recovering from a drop in earnings due to Covid methinks.) 🙁

Rather boring but trying not to increase numbers.

That's pedals for you 😄

[MichaelDean]

Just one bass in this year. A Revelation PJ. I like the PJ configuration, still not entirely sold on the neck profile and it needs some fretwork too. 

[hiram.k.hackenbacker]

Thing is, the +/- number of instruments doesn't give a clear indication of what's going on.

I'm +2 basses overall for 2022, but I'm still £'s in....
