What's your arsenal worth?

[buzzbass]

Oh boy, just totaled it all up. All I can say, maybe my wife is right when she says I'm obsessed.

$13,500 spread over 10 basses
$4,800 spread over several head/cab set ups.

Hope she doesn't read this, or I'm in trouble

From Scotland's slap bassist,I got one bass guitar
,the jingly-jangly tinny-winny Vigier Graphite 4 string,costing £1,000 ($750-ish bucks)and I've played the bass for 23 years! It was like a trade in thing starting off with a Gibson short-scale copy,then up to a Fender Jazz copy,then traded in as part-exchange on the real thing;a Fender precision...this was thrown out a window by a mad-woman girlfriend and did not survive:¬( He started all over again saving up all he could and the Vigier remains....he is still learning to play!! That said,stay cool.Scotland's slap bassist,"Fallon"

Dealing with my wife's occasional nagging about it

 

[Figjam]

[Tyler Hole]

3 basses, 1 tuner, 2 cables, 1 badass v bridge (for sale ), 3 extra strings and an amp, I'm still under $1000! score

 

[Avidus]

hmm...

Basses: $2800
Amps: $2300
Effects: (tuner, etc.) $1000
Lessons: $2500 so far

[FiveStringsNme]

damn you Ty, I'm at friggin' $3200(approximately)

Ty, always so conservative..

btw people, when you sell equipment do you subtract the value of the bass or what you got for selling it from the total net arsenal worth?

Thats me

 

[handbrake_lex]

Let's see now:
My amp, Career 50 Watts, about 150 dollars
My bass, a Mayhill, 200 dollars
Some stuff like cables and a gig bag, 50 dollars

A grand total of 400 dollars. That's some time ago, so it's now probably worth less (in money, not in sentimental value).

Anyways I'm no match for most you guys, guess I'll be looking for a job if I ever want to end up with a 6 figure arsenal...

 

[JJd2sc]

Lets see.

'83 Stingray 4 - 1200ish ( worth more to me )
2003 Roscoe custom - 3000ish
2002 Modulus vintage jazz - 1700ish
ampeg b2 combo - i forget, payed 350 used on a gc sale
ampeg classic 4x10hlf cab, got 450 used

~6700 bucks... wow

Basses = $2000 USD
