I just gave you $2000!

... Under the condition that you must invest it in a instrument manufacturing company. What do you do?

My money so I don't have to answer

 

[mcapote]

in an existing company or start a new one?

 

[David Jayne]

Buy stock in all the good, public ones.

Sensible, indirect answers are not an option!

Jeez, I just went to go to the bathroom and three replies?

And yes. Lakland wins, indeed. Being from Chicago wins more

 

[LaklandBass]

Id invest it in Lakland as well. Truly great products and wonderful people to deal with. I called them a couple years ago when I was considering a purchase and they invited me down to the shop to chat and look at their process. It is a top notch company and I look forward to buying another one as I unfortunately had to sell mine.

I would put it in something that you know is gonna turn out mass like Boss, Berhinger, Laguna, Epiphone. making Money and preference in what you play are 2 different things. my new love is Spector, but i dont see them turning out the mass the above will turn out.

 

[J. Crawford]

Lakland.

I wish my parents would have invested in Fodera a few years ago.

So......you want direct, silly answers? I don't follow.

Boss and Berhinger are pretty good ideas.

Oooh yeeeah. Which reminds me randomly, my grandfather had a huge home studio. Ridiculous. Gave it to a second uncle of mine I think. He sold it.

Well no. I'm saying that yes, that is a reasonable answer, but being a tad more specific would be nice. No offense or anything.

[fullrangebass]

Dingwall gets my vote. Top of the tops at every aspect

 

[Phalex]

I'd invest it in Barker. (I think I could almost swing one of his Vertical basses for that much.)

 

[levis76]

Call up my man Don Oatman at LDS and gladly assist him in leasing a new shop/store. It sucks not being able to stop in for a quick chat or playing through his latest creations.

A Brio?

i thought about that, but thats like investing in microsoft today. Good idea in the 80s not so much in 2009

Probably couldn't swing a B1 for 2K......

You could if you find the right window and swing hard.
