HELP!!! Bass Withdrawal!!!!

[Jaco Taco]

So both of my basses, an 8-string Rickenbacker 4003 and a custom 6-string are in the shop right now for touch-ups and I have no basses at home.... AND I'M GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!!!

I've got 4 guitars and two keyboards but.... but... THEY ARE NOT BASSES!!!! What can I do with myself until I get my basses back?!?!?

Go window shopping.
As long as you don't salivate while you try out other basses no one will suspect your condition.

Hmmm, a good idea. But won't they get worried when I just stay at the store all day playing??

Wouldn't worry too much, I just go in an act like I'm looking to buy something. Spend half the day there then just say "bye" and leave.

Play some ukelele

I'm currently hidden in the bathroom of my local Guitar Center overnight while the store has been closed.... Man, the bass selection here sucks! That being said, the soda machine in the employee room is only 75 cents! Score!

Sell one of your guitars and get a ' backup bass to play when I drop my other two basses off for repairs at the same time and end up with no bass to play ' bass.

Go try what this jerk did:

Next time wait to get one back before you send the other in for touchups...

Go get a squier. If you sell one of your guitars, if thats even an option, you can get a "free" bass. There is a lot of really nice squiers out there. And they wont empty the bank.
