fragility Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 So it's been about a month since I got it and I'm still just as in love, I've never felt before that a bass was [i]my[/i] bass if that makes sense, but this just feels like a perfect fit [attachment=26629:IMG_0408_2.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I got my fretless Wal in 1986 and have loved it ever since! It makes so much sense to me to find a bass that does it for you and then work on the music. GAS is a great way of kidding yourself that the problems with your playing are with your gear not with your competences as a player. I hope you and your 5 have a long and fruitful relationship.

Glad you've found what you're looking for - looks like a fair few people on this forum are pretty far from that stage. I've had mine for years now and although she's a bit old and battered and maybe not the most glamorous, I'll stray from time to time but I always end up going back to her. Anyway, that's enough about my wife...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I've spent a lot of time in the last year buying and selling but I also seem to have really settled on one bass that just 'works' for me (well, actually I'm cheating a bit because I liked it so much I immediately bought a 2nd one!). I sat down yesterday for a quick noodle and got up again over 3 hours later, no bass has ever done that to me before Hope you have many happy hours with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
