Its a journey..


BaggyMan

Recommended Posts

Some people play the same bass all of their life which is cool.  Others ...like me.. are  restless souls.  After 42 years 'on the strings'  i was musing over a cup of coffee, how many manufacturers had i owned example(s) of.  

 

So..

 

AGC

Columbus

Cort

Crafter

Dingwall

Earthwood

Fazley

Fender

Fenix

FGN

G&L

Harley Benton

HK

Hondo

J&D Brothers

Jim Deacon

Lakland

Musicman

Sterling by Musicman

OLP

Sandberg

Spector

Squier

Sire

Ibanez

Overwater

Tanglewood

Tokai

Traben

Vester

Vintage

Washburn

Warwick (added later 'cos i forgot)

Yamaha

Zemaitis

and numerous self builds.

 

 

In my defense i was left unattended and Ebay made me do it

Oh my goodness, it appears I may have led a bit of a sheltered life.

I bought the Ric new in 1978.

It was my only bass until the Mustang (current gigging bass) took my fancy around 2014.
