Who All Is Getting a New Bass This Week?

Well, i'm hoping to get something this week(fingers crossed). I've got some trade bait; a '62 re-issue strat:hiding: I'm taking it to GC today to hopefully find something to trade for. Hopin' for a Ric, but won't get my hopes up too much since they don't seem to carry them very often. I'll let ya know how it turns out :bassist:
 
Let me clarify this a little... I've always been a bass player first, then I thought i'd get a cheap guitar just to have around. Well, I got caught up in the moment and traded a... well, let's just say an intrument;) for a very nice 62 re'issue strat. Dug it for a while but once I realized how low i'd sunk, I realized the only thing my guitars were good for was to use them as trade bait for a nice bass. Mission accomplished:D I've learned a great deal from my mistake, oh wise ones.

I just took delivery of a Warmoth 5 with a wenge top and walnut body with maple pinstripe in between, a wenge neck with blank ebony board, and black hardware. It looks very classy and elegant, like natural wood version of the Fender Aerodyne without the fingerprints. ;) Plays and sounds good, too.

No pics of my own yet, but here's one from the auction:

We I didn't end up with the new Glaub, My funds couldn't cover it so I had to pass. BUT!! I still got a new bass this week for my 40th B-Day.
I was admiring this badboy at a local Music store in April and when I went back to pull the trigger it was gone. It seems my Wife and and a few band members chipped in and got it for me right under my nose and never had a clue.
1982 Ibanez Musician, What a sweet bass.
