Hi,
I wish to get some advice from you guys on how to store the basses. I got few basses with me and not everyone of them I play frequently.
How should I store those basses that I play once every week
How should I store those basses that I play once every 3 weeks
How should I store those basses that I play once every 6 weeks
How should I store those basses that I play once every 12 weeks
Thanks in advance for you advice.

Serriously, you might want to post this in the luthers section . I'm sure some of the guys there could give some good advice. Hey, I'm employed, may be a I'll start a bass storage company! |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2000 Location: Chicago, IL | | | I keep mine out on stands at all times, 'cept when I take 'em out to gig or practice. I like keeping them exposed to the environment as much as possible, because (in my mind, anyway), it keeps 'em more "used to" the elements than if I kept them in their respective cases.
