New? Yeah about that. Although I sold an ex demo one in a shop for about £500 (should’ve bought it…) Used I think £500-£700 would be right. if it was immaculate (which it isn’t) or the rarer black/burst/white) then fair enough. it’s dinged all around the jack and has buckle rash on the belly contour…so it’s £600 maximum in my head. I’ve already offered £650 and that’s been declined so…that’s me out, and still in the gear abstinence thread 😂

It’s on my watch list. I’ve made 2 offers - seller seems to want basically what they’ve put as starting bid… which, let’s be Frank…is too much

If I were in a position…I’d eschew the fancy woods etc…

(tongue firmly in cheek - think he borrowed this Fodera)

I think it’s more about affordability. Does owning a Ferrari or Lamborghini make you a skilled driver? Not necessarily. But if you can afford a Lamborghini, would you drive a 15 year old Ford Focus? Probably not.

I’m not good enough to play a Squier Bronco - never stopped me 😂

I’m a kitchen sink kind of player. Then I strip it back, as time goes on - I’m playing less busy stuff, but I tend to play chords etc to fill sounds out so guitarist can play accent lines etc. @lee650says I play guitar bass.

There was a healthy discussion about how it could’ve been an amazing single album. Instead…it was a lukewarm double disc…

Much like anything Star Wars - I’ll give anything RHCP a go. Just like the constant rumblings about Star Wars’ recent output- I’d rather have it than have nothing. I am surprised they stir up so much ‘hatred’ in people - but, that’s life isn’t it.

Nope, I’m good. there’s a blue Spector in the marketplace and I’m keeping my wallet shut - now that’s dedication

Oooooooooft, though….OOOOOFFT

They’ve missed a trick there for sure. That looks so much better

I’m still in. here’s the key - buy new strings for all of your old gear…

Not that confusing @triplebass Trades aren’t allowed in this little competition as far as I’m aware. you’ve acquired new gear… unless I’m mistaken @bassfan?

No, trades aren’t allowed I think,,,

Love unlimited or whatever it’s called is another double album… I don’t hold out huge hopes If this is the lead single: but I’ve listened three times. It may grow on me.

They certainly did for a while. Not sure anymore

Fender

Much more me…
