chris_b Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Shame. I'd have put it under the bed. You might have changed your mind in the future and it's an appreciating asset if you didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutton Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Don't worry Michael. It's always the worst time when you have just sold a bass. I sold a Stingray recently so I know how you feel. Just go and pick up one of those gorgeous precisions and move on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywalker Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 This is exactly like my Jazz, I would feel the same if I lost her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_the_bass Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 FWIW, I think you've done the right thing. I hate to see instruments gathering dust as well. I just sold my JV P bass - i went through all the old "it's an investment" and thought of reasons not to sell it, but I couldn't think of a good one. Don't piss the money up the wall though - mine is going back into upgrading other instruments. I wanted a 70s P, but now I can't really see a use for it when I've got another bass that will do the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes something like this: Gang of Jazzes: "We're gonna beat you up Mr Precision" Lone Precision: "Hardly fair sides is it, five of you, one of me?

Beedster Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Although of course if the Jazzes went and got my old Modulus Sonic Hammer to help them it would be all over for even the toughest of Precisions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Cheers folks. I've had it a few years now, so it was a wrench to see it go. The new owner is going to be gigging it, and it's what it deserves. I'll try and numb the pain by buying a new amp, I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
