The Easter 100

[fryBASS]

i have no clueee!! i think i'd need some help figuring it out and what i really like.

I'd definatley go for an amp set up first, but i'd need some help with that then i'd go for basses.

 

[embellisher]

I will give 10% to the church.

F Bass BN5 in some kind of ceruse finish, birdseye maple fingerboard.

The new wireless from the X-wire founders.

A nice strap.

Whatever else is left will go to charity.

LoL

The way this thread is going, I think Lecompte, Stambaugh and Cliff Bordwell are going to have a 3 year wait list if we win haha.

 

[Sounbwoy]

I'd really like a Steinberger-uhm- actually TWO- an original and the new Synapse....then add to my rig (new head)...I'd also fix one of my current basses-small neck issue-can still be played but it's on my mind more than I'd like it to be....

 

[CTbass&birdsong]

Between you and me that makes three with a possible fourth. I got no problem with that.

Yvon is in the Easter 100 and he is thinking about the 6er you are taking to the show in Jan !!!!

 

[chrisp2u]

Hmmm... this is a tough one. I'm actually kinda *gasp* GAS-less for basses right now. My GAS has been diverted elsewhere (recording equipment) more recently. Not that I'm sure I couldn't come up with something....

hmmm...

OK... one of those Mark Bass combos and maybe another Stambaugh ... the rest goes to charity. Though it seems like Mr. Stambaugh will be quite busy, so I might have to go with something else. Ah well... I'll figure something out.

Still thinking positive!

Honestly I can't even imagine owning a 5000$ bass and with all the marvelous builders out there I can't imagine who I'd pick... I think I'd likely be sending the money to Dave Seigel at NYBW for a nice vintage sounding 6 or to Cliff Bordwell.

 

[fryBASS]

I think I'd go for a Conklin... I've always wanted one.

Well, not always, since I've only know about them for about a year, but you get my point

 

[bongomania]

+1 more for LeCompte! I have it all drawn out in my mind.

Although a set of really nice cabs and a Focus SA III would hit the spot too...

 

[bassthumpa]

I will give 10% to the church.

Yep, that's automatic. I tend to take that right of the top without even realizing it (which is a good thing).

 

[BassManPatsFan]

I'd probably give away a quarter or so to the American Cancer Society in this "Relay for Life" thing I do in june. With the rest, I'd love a Birdsong...both in honor of Ben and more importantly because i've been looking all over for a great passive short scale bass. With the rest, I could use a good practice combo, some straps, strings, etc.
Keep your fingers crossed!

[ashiin]

get a nice amp and then get more basses, i'll donate the rest to charity

 

[clavefa]

I'd buy airafare so I can see my granddaughter more often

 

[Pennydreadful]

I'm thinking maybe a King Double Bass Slapking, but since I don't even play DB (yet?) it might be a bad idea to waste 2-3k on one.

Or maybe a Rob Allen, or any number of things.

I am definitely gonna be putting 10% (likely more, it depends) of the 5k toward some kind of good cause, but I think forcing everybody involved to do so would be crappy, and actually kind of against the spirit of the whole thing.

 

[ashiin]

actually i'm thinking of a sadowsky now

 

[82Daion]

I like...could get me in trouble...but with a big smile !!!!

I might have it before you win, but if I should happen to own it at that point, I might go for a Status of some sort, upgrade my amp, and donate the rest to charity.

 

[Joe Gress]

A LeCompte, but I get them at cost, so maybe two.

GEE, I bet you want those to be custom tailored to your exact specs, and if it dosen't fit, you sell it and keep going till you got one that is perfect? PICKY:scowl:














I wish I had a shop.

 

[yellofury]

I will be donating 1,000 to some charity, probably the heiffer project http://www.heifer.org/ other than that, I don't know

+1
Well I can get two avg basses:
EBMM Stirling
Ric 4003
two on the cheaper end:
Kingston artist fretless
Spector Legend classic 6 string

and donate 500 to the charity that Pointbass does
where you donate bass to disenfranchised children
that would be sweet
everyone wins

500 to my church too
we need a new playground for the kids

 

[yellofury]

doh only one bass !!!

well i have to think about it then
its not easy to just come up with one mege bass
its kinda daunting

I dont think you have to be forced to give
its just something I think I should do but by no means something you HAVE to do

 

[Yvon]

Maybe Bud's sixer, or also I,m gasing for 5 string P bass really bad lately... So maybe a 5 string Sadowsky P in natural swamp ash, maple neck and fingerboard (dotless of course) and a white pick guard. Also, I don't really think I need a bass...
I might just give the 5000$ to this foundation:
