The over 1K Bass Place

[Spleenface92]

My 1962 Precision...it should have cost me well over $1000, but I snagged it for $950, and not in 1985...I got this bad boy last April.

Deal of a lifetime...and still the most I ever spent on a bass.

Can I just say that 1: I hate you and 2: where do you live, and when's the next time you're going on vacation?

+1 on that nice snag!

 

[DBTOYS]

there has to be more over 1 k basses out there

 

[kjpollo]

My over $1k is my Clement custom. Its definitely my #1 player. The only other one I own that came close to a grand is my Carvin LB-75. When I ordered it from Carvin back in 92, it went for about $875. Nowadays, the closest possible replacement would run you About $1150.

Under $1k? I have 6 of em to pick from. The top pick of THAT litter is probably my 79 T-40.

 

[audiomitch]

Presently - Ric 4003, '72 Fender Precision

Departed - Ric 4001, Ric 4003 (different one), '65 Fender Jazz, '76 Fender P, '78 Fender P, MIA Fender '75 Jazz Reissue, Gibson Thunderbird, more I can't remember.

Gotta spread it around between basses, guitars, microphones, recording gear, etc.

 

[Bassist Jay]

Below 1k, anyone of my Ibanez Soundgear basses. Over 1k, anyone of my Music Man basses.
