Thanks! That's sold, sorry

I never did an introduction post, but I'll do a farwell post. I am not playing the bass anymore, and it turns out this spoils my enjoyment here unfortunately. I posted here an average of around 18 times per month between March 2022 and this September. I have since only made posts to sell my gear. Slowly, and with no rush, I am going to sell everything apart from my Ibanez Mezzo and the practice amp for the occasional noodling. It has been nice chatting with you these past two years. A physiotheraphist this summer said that I should stop playing the bass while we were working on my back pain. That was quite sad as I was in the process of looking for a band. She also prescribed exercises, and the whole thing pushed me to become more physically active, putting in the hours to get fit. It turned out that, as I am glued to my laptop all day for work, not spending the rest of the time glued to a big wooden object with strings, even if it makes the coolest sound ever created and is amazing to play, is good for my body, my mental health, my family. So that's it. No more time and money spent on gear, no more long hours practicing, no time for a band for the forseable future. I am not the sort of person that can juggle too many things at once unfortunately. I'll be around to sell stuff. Best wishes to you all. Farwell

I was looking at the classfields this morning. There were no basses marked as "sold" before page 5 (where my ad had ended up two days after the last bump). There were two "on hold" page 3. Is August a slow month for bass sales?

This. Just a single movement of closing the hand, but with fingers falling on the string staggered. It does not require a lot more stamina than playing eight notes
