Number, please.

Luscious, expensive new bass AND a strong, if unsolicited, endorsement from a snark on YouTube!

LOL. Sign this man right up.

Yet another crappy Bassist with nice gear!
Warwick corvette 4 active
Marvel (Bet ya' never seen one of these!) Looks ALOT like the Warwick, but contoured body, exact copy of headstock. Active Pup's. If anyone has info on this thing I'd appreciate it.
Frankenbass! Ugly-Ass Fender Jazz body with horrible paint, 5 string fretless homemade? neck(works fine)in a 6 string neck cavity. Passive Pup's.
GK Backline 600 Head with a Backline 4-10 Cab
Fender Bassman 150 combo.
Almost took off left hand(fret hand) with a table saw a few years ago, I still suck, but worse.
Number?????

Still play, great therapy.

Somebody beat my high bid on a 70's Precision, by 200 bucks... I am actually relieved.

I want number 0,5....
Sadowsky Metro 4 string
Ibanez Ergodyne
(Rip G&L us jazz, Geddy lee)
Squire Mustang (Want my son to be better than me)
Mesa M6+ 210 power cab
Orange crush 100W combo
Know what? Thinking about selling everything to buy....something else that will make me play better. I can't figure out alone a AC/DC part.

Gaolee · #**632** 10-26-2012, 06:15 PM

I spent a lot of money on a talent pedal. It didn't work...

The latest piece of equipment I can't play is an Epiphone Thunderbird Pro 4 that I got de-fretted. De-fretting it cost me more than buying the bass, its case, and getting it shipped. So it is now valueless in the market, I paid more for it than a brand new one including the de-fretting, and my intonation is even worse. Three times the goodness of crap!

DieterVDW · #**633** 10-26-2012, 06:26 PM

Not really expensive gear, but still pretty high gear/talent ratio...
Yamaha BB425X + Hartke HA3500 + VX410 cab
Yamaha BB4NIII + Hartke kickback 15

It's even worse for guitar ...

Hit me with a number!

phillybass101 · #**634** 11-01-2012, 09:01 AM

Hey I am an edorsing artist, need a gig, no recording contract, no royalties, no tours, no full time band in the forseeable future, and I use a PUMA 500 bass head and Eden 2x12 cab. Do I qualify :-)

Baird6869 · #**635** 11-01-2012, 09:09 AM

I think I qualify!

1 $100 cover gig in 2 months and I own:

MTD 535
Spector USA Forte 5
2 Modulus'
2 '70s Fenders
1 '80s Fender

AND a Fodera on order!

Landy67 · #**636** 12-14-2012, 10:42 AM

ShowLow, Crappy New Year to you as well!

ChadPaulJones you are number #247

Here is my latested addition to the family that's just about complete. It's a modded Fender P-bass with EMG pickups (including adding a Musicman style pickup) with a Jazz neck. It also has a 3-band Seymour Duncan pre-amp in it.
