Only two???!!!

No 5 string, no 6 string, no 7 string, no 8 string (doubled), no 12 string (tripled), no 10 string (doubled), no 15 string (tripled), no fretless in 5, 6, and 7 string, no hollowbody, no ABG, No variety in your musical life?

If you want to stay on TB you've got your GAS work cut out for you!
 
I'd need a much bigger room and wide angle lens for a family potrait. The Peavey USA branch did assemble on Wednesday,one old timer didn't make
the call due to surgery:( The very next morning there was a new arrival annoucement :jawdrop: so more photos in the New Year

Dude. I'm 15. Anyway, I don't like the look of 5+ strings, so I'm sticking with 4. However, I have a huge GAS list!

Thanks for asking gebass6. I work away most of the time so it's difficult to find somewhere and only 8 got sold. Still leaves 52 to house. Got a few weeks
left before my deadline and I solved the transport issue. Things are looking up but I'll never get down to 15 as there's 23 different Peavey models:D

Age is just a number! I'm 18 right now but got most of mine when I was 17. Just keep your eye out for the deals man, basses will come to you ;)

This is TRUTH!
I know it seems like it couldn't be true, but I've got the $300 Ken Smith and $700 Modulus to prove it! You just wander the bass shops drooling and then, lo, one day providence sends you something very cool with your name on it! Trust me!

Hey at 15 you got 2 fine basses. That's a great start but folks on here don't get the UK market, those $1200 American Standards you folks can pick up in GC any day well
over here $1600 is about the cheapest we'll find them.Same goes for the used market.Don't be down when you hear the deals they get.

I envy you A.D. starting out now as there's so much great gear and it's a whole lot more affordable.At 15 I never imagined I'd own over 70 basses,Man you've got some fun ahead of you:thumbsup::thumbsup:

It's an ibanez gsr 190 I got from an antique shop for 20 bucks. I refinished it, took the frets out, new bridge/tuners and added a killswitch. I really like it
