Do you remember your first post at TB?

Yup, my first post was my first thread as well ^^

I asked for some info about an old axe (Fender knock-off) I bought on Ebay. I had been looking for an old bass to rehab, and this one had seemed like a good bass to work on.

Well, in typical TB fashion, the brain trust immediately told me what a dope I was, that it was a piece of plywood junk, how I got ripped off, how the exact same bass was hanging in every Applebee's restaurant in the US, how I should use it for firewood, etc etc etc :rolleyes:

Turns out it's a 1968 MIJ Goya worth about 10 times what I paid for it. I still have the bass and still play it regularly. Since that first post/thread I've learned to simply ignore the doomsayers here at TB ...... :cool:
 
Very cool... :cool: I guess the fact that you took ownership only a few months ago probably means you're not going to be interested moving it soon! :D

Are you kidding? I LOVE Hamer Cruise 2-Teks! They're the only basses I play.

In fact, I'm always looking for more!

So, to answer your question... Nah, my Cruises aren't for sale. But, if you know of any that are - and you're not interested - please let me know!
 
I didn't remember so I just searched. I was asking about Ibanez ATKs. This week I finally bought one and I'm picking it up tomorrow so it took me long enough to decide and spot the right one!
 
i do not recall. and according to both the search function and "find all posts" in my user profile, i only have 400 posts. :eyebrow:

i think the first thread i started was, "what shape would win in a fight?" ...man, that was back when i was a freshman in HIGH SCHOOL! i hope that i at least posted it in "off topic" and not "basses."
