Johngh Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 So, quite recently my Mum died. She was 91 and had been ill for 7 weeks. It's still come as a great shock, and a great loss. She loved music and sang most of her life. So my initial plan was to buy a bass that would be very special in her memory. But I've got carried away and bought three in two days. I'm not going to say that these are all keepers, but for the reason I've bought them it will be hard to let them go.

Wilco Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Three brilliant basses - I couldn't pick a favourite, they're all gorgeous! I would say they definitely should [b][i]all[/i][/b] be keepers - a trio of excellent basses in your mums memory is even better than just the one.
