HI Jeff and James

HI, my name is Kevin, and i am a bassaholic. I just turned 39 on Sunday and have only been playing for a little over a year. I should be able to control the urges to play every chance i get, but they are too strong for me to overcome. I think i should just accept it and keep on playing. I'm hooked and don't wanna do anything to kick the habit.

Hi everyone, my name is JAZ (thank you, parents for the best initials EVER), and I'm a bass-aholic.

I've been playing for oh, about four years now, and I've already been through 13 basses (7 of which I still own). I'm currently looking to get at least 1 more this year. It hurts, it hurts (my wallet) so bad...


...Could be worse - at least I found my perfect amp on the second try.

Hello my name is your name

Dad : Where did you get this MTD?
Me : I don't know; Tom Bowlus must have...
Dad : Must have WHAT? Where did you get this? Who taught you to do this stuff?

Me: From Wooten, all right? I learned it from watching Wooten!

Hello everyone My name is Bill and I'm a bassaholic. I was able to quit for about twenty years but i went to a party one night and picked one up and it feels like I started right back where I was when I quit the first time. My marriage is suffering I dont talk to my kids. I spend all my spare money and time on gear and playing. My workshop has turned into a peavey amp museum. To make matters worse now I have the internet so I chat in Talkbass on my lunch breaks. If my boss finds out I may lose my job. I am even hearing Phantom bass lines Can anyone help me.

Hello. My name is Byron. I am a bassaholic and damn proud of it.

Bassaholicism is an addiction that it's ok to be proud of right?

Hello, my name is Rock and I am a bassaholic.

I realized that I was a bassaholic when I began to play bass an excessive amount by myself in my room.
