My dad used to do this before NAFTA.
 
Sure wish I could enjoy a dirt box in every room I play. Put a Barbershop and a Brimstone XD-1 on my board. Some nights I like one but not the other, some nights I hate both. Some nights I love both...never found one I love every time and I've tried a bunch
 
I just saw that, i've seen them all SO MANY times in syndication, still might be good for a couple of binge sessions.

True, but there's a couple I haven't seen before surprisingly. Glad I can binge.

i can always watch it. Last summer I watched the entire series. I was surprised of how many of the classic lines/scenes came from the first season.

Yea and it's only a 5 episode season.

Got the bass vi. Time to pick a pickguard!

Whoever owned it bought a nice set of deep talking flats, then proceeded to string it like a tard. They tied the strings in knots and crammed them in the tuners. So GC loosened the strings to ship and I go to retune and break the E off at the knot where the metal had been over stressed.

Luckily Joe sent me a random pack of bass vi rounds with a case I got one time from him so I can set it up tonight.

That's a tough call. I like the red, which isn't really consistent with what I normally like, but I like it nonetheless. Though tort is also good. Black on black would be my ideal tho.

I love that red one I got made, though it's really meant for the white vi. Also it has a hole in it meant for the foam mute, so that guard really goes with whatever bass gets flats.


Truly though black would be badass, but No guard money right now as I begin the real purge. This now in hindsight shouldn't have been bought, but I did so now I'll keep it and sell everything else with strings but a guitar and the bass vi in pieces.

Honestly I have gassed hard for a white on white 6. Really a white one white bass in general. Not sure why but it calls to me. You'll have a killer 6 either way. I want one of them low tuned geetar bass thingamajigs something fierce. It's just always a bit pricey for something I know will be a novelty, or maybe it wouldn't, I don't know because I've never played one. But I do tend to gravitate back to a P bass no matter what I am playing at any point. I love the T40, but I'll take a passive P any day.

White on white (especially with a maple board) is super sexy.

Black on black and white on white be badass. A red bass with red guard might be cool.

Gonna be Selling my white on white p bass in the purge, and blue beards moving too. Feeling empty inside, but it's for a good cause.
 
At the same time, an SB2 stands between me and a dually. And my birthday is Monday so who knows. Maybe the SB2 will be the halfway point for dually dos. So I can't complain.

Someone on reverb offered me 500 for the bass. Of course I turned it down. I feel like 700 is already a killer deal for the instrument. I guess the guy thinks reverb is craigslist. No shame in his attempt though.
