I guess maybe it was in case someone had to take a picture of him standing in front of 20+ copies of his bass at any given moment anywhere across the globe?

Does anyone have 100 or more?

But, I've already been through the "you can never have too many" thing with guitars, and I realize that, for me, it doesn't work. I still have 14 or 15 guitars, and I could sell most of them and not have any regrets. I have 3 listed on Craig's list now, I could list 8 more tomorrow.
Collections are cool, but I'm not a collector.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Nova Scotia | | | Wow. I had five basses at one point last year, and it felt really unnecessary, so I sold two. Not knockin it, but I'm kind of shocked. 3 Basses (Including a $100 Applause acoustic thing), 3 Guitars, 3 bass/Guitar amps, and a banjo, feels like a TON of gear to me... |
