So I got an email from the seller claiming my order was cancelled due to "technical difficulties"???? I have no idea what that even means as a reason to cancel an order? I wrote to the seller to get an explanation of why they just wouldn't delay it if it was a "technical difficulties" to me that means your system crashed or or something like that. If you screwed up and posted something that you no longer had to sell don't BS me, because gets on my last nerve.

Okay the coolest wife on the planet bought me this same bass last night! So yeah fingers are crossed for bass #15 on it's way

Wow, that's an impressive list of 'investments'

Did you acquire these 'along the way' or after they were already considered to be vintage?
