Three things I hate about buying basses on the web

... There are sites that make it clear that their inventory is purely indicative and not necessarily 'in-stock'. I have no problem with this, it's sellers that (intentionally or by omission) do not make it clear what is ready to ship immediately and what can be ordered-in on request.
+1 ... and if I got more votes, + those votes too.
 
Digging this from the grave......

So I just went to Cali, then Seattle, and then thought about what I posted....and you are right I just did not see that many different varieties from different makers (saw a bunch of different makers, and the guys at BASSNW rock, but that is another story.....)........

....then I remembered my honeymoon when I saw this thread, and just got to thinking how funny it is that nowhere in the US is like Nak Wan or Tokyo. Anyways, I can't recommend going there just for the purposes of picking up a bass, but don't let it be said that a place like that don't exist!

Regardless, I am pretty sure you got the axes you really wanted, and that is what matters, eh?
