How bad is your GAS?

OTHER:

Both. I couldn't do with so so gear, and I can't do a so so car.

 

[Mike N]

I'll take the great car and mediocre gear anyday.

 

[agreatheight]

I drvie a truck that cost 11K new and have several basses that cost more then 2K new. Hmmmm...

 

[BluesyCat]

I voted for the car but I need both. Already have a great car...working on acquiring the great basses.

 

[Figjam]

My bass gear is worth a little more than what i bought my car for. Bought the car second hand for $4000. Bass gear is about $6000.

 

[tplyons]

A good, reliable car. Not necessarilly fancy.

Can't afford to cancel gigs on account of your car.

Make sure you have your basic gear, then make sure you have a reliable car that your gear fits into.

Everything else towards bass.

I truly don't care about having a "sweet ride." I've never been a car guy to begin with. Between the wife and I, we have a Honda Civic and a GMC pickup, both '90s vintage. Works for us.

 

[joeyl]

mediocre car, I can fix them fairly easily, one thing I cannot do is AC work, too many places for unwanted leaks when I put it back together

 

[Miles Berry]

Reliable late 80's station wagon. And my main rig cost like 4 times as much. I dont care about cars, I like music equipment.

 

[jk_bass]

I'd sell the great car and get great bass gear!

 

[fourstringbliss]

What about a bass shaped like a carrot that would fit in the trunk of your car?

My order of purchases over the next year:

1) Fender Jaguar (Just bought)
2) Like, a Gajillion carrots, all shapes and sizes, including an active deluxe carrot with BAII and a custom vintage tweed carrot case
3) More carrots
4) 2 Door Volkswagen Rabbit (Something to feed with my carrots, and in red to match my bass!)
5) '72 Telecaster Thinline w/ Orange Crush 30W amp
6) G&L ASAT Bass, Butterscotch Blonde

And the next few are somewhere in the hazy future...

Ampeg SVT Vintage Reissue Amp Head
Orange AD200B Amp Head with matching Cabs
Fender Custom Classic and American Vintage '75 Jazz Basses
Gibson Standard Les Paul, Heritage Cherry
and much much more.

I'd sell the great car and get great bass gear!

Agreed

 

[aesir6]

Agreed

Well except a 71' Barracuda.

i'd choose B, but i don't have a car.

and my GAS isn't that bad, i guess. one foxy bass, one great amp & one sweet cab is all i need.
