Congratulations on getting back to it! Hopefully there won't be a next time.

 

[HAVOK]

Thanks man!
Yeah I hope so too, my band has decided to get back together
after 13 years apart, and we will be playing those old songs..
I was never good at bass, but being older allows the patience to try and learn to play properly!
I am super excited every time I go to the basement and play..its fun to have "it" back!

Here is my American Jazz with a Steve Harris neck. This neck is super sweet if you like a thick neck.

My first highend bass:

Dude that bass rocks. And the instrument is pretty awesome too...! Are you in Brazil? If I read it right a 5er goes for 2600 US? Not bad, of course I can't read Portuguese so ordering might be difficult. Congratulations!

Oh thank you so much. Yeah, I live in Rio. It is right, a 5er goes for about $2600 US. If you can not read portuguese, do not forget you can always use translate.google.com

I'd say you've got it covered, no matter what it may be. That's one hell of a collection.

Haha, yeah, I'm not really sure what it is either, other than a serious case of G.A.S. and a soft heart for lonely pawnshop orphans.

I wish bc rich was still making the ironbird basses. As an Immortal fan, i'd like to have one for playing in the Fjords, all dressed up in leather

No doubt. If they made and NJ Deluxe import model 5 string Ironbird bass like the NJ Deluxe Warlocks they made up until this year (but with reverse headstock), I'd probably never play anything else.

 

[Snakepit]

My first and only bass.

 

[BassAgent]

That. Is. Nice. Japanese '62 RI?
