SpaceChick Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I've been on this forum less than a week and I have already upgraded my crap little 15W practice amp which is tinnier than a tin can for a Peavey Max 112 proper bass amp There is no hope for me is there???? I am already drooling after some Yamaha basses too, and was looking at the Cort ones in the shop today! LOL! Quote

mikeh Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I played the same bass for years till I joined this site (well the previous bassworld), now I've had far too many changes!!! Im not complaining though ;-) Quote
Wayne Firefly Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Im as GASsy as hell, most of the time !!!!! Quote

LeftyBiskit Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I'm currently floating about banging me head on the ceiling because of gas!! Quote
BottomE Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Its criminal. There should be bass GAS police to keep us in check. After promising not to acquire any more basses my wife had one fall on her from inside a storage cupboard that she never normally goes near. I thought it would be safe in there. A good tactic is to get some empty cases and then it becomes difficult for anyone to really know how many bits of kit you have. Quote
debwilliams Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Give in to it ... you know you're going to do it anyway Quote
ezbass Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 GAS is good, give in to the GAS. Mwah, ha, ha, ha! Quote

SpaceChick Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 Oh no, that does look like a nice bass Quote
paul_5 Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 repeat after me: "My name is (insert online pseudonym here" and I have a problem with GAS". My pedalboard has been in a state of flux ever since I joined BC. I've kept my main bass and my cabinet but have been through (if memory serves) 4 different heads and probably somewhere in the region of 20 pedals in 18 months. Not. Good. fun though... Quote

jaydentaku Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I suggest you save that guy on ebay. He take a guitar and (if you pardon the expression) makes luthier love to them. He restores them and sets them up perfect. Plus, they are all so cheap! Quote

[/quote] But surely you need to make good use of your new amp? I mean, you've spent the money on that so it would be a shame not to get the most out of it ....

Silvia Bluejay Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 GAS!! I was already a victim before I joined this forum. Then someone (step forward Mr H!) pointed me to a Warwick lefty fretless 5 going cheap which I was absolutely sure I'd play a only couple of times. Some two months and a set of D'Addario Chromes later, it's my main instrument, and I'm a happy woman GAS immediately continued with a new upright 5 and a new acoustic... hey, we only live once, right? And - as a Tuscan saying goes - Death needs to find us alive Quote
