Having your gear at home...

[KingBollock]

I am a sucker for pretty, sparkly lights! I have all my gear set up in my music/computer room, so it is always there, ready to be played. The one thing that truly takes my breath away, still, is my BC Rich Warlock. I'd wanted one for over 20 years and was actually worried that I wouldn't like it once I got one, especially as I got it off EBay having never actually played one. But it is beautiful. Unfortunately the only stand that I have that it fits in, has the nasty habit of folding over forwards and smacking whatever it's holding into the ground, so it is hidden behind a guitar amp so that it can't fall forwards. Such a shame to hide such a lovely thing, but better than letting any damage come to it.

I would have everything out and looking sexy, but with two kids and no spare room it has to sit in a corner of the living room in it's cases - it's a fairly satisfying pile of cases though

[Muzz]

My rig (tho it's not exactly huge) is stored in the garage/under the stairs, but I have a Rolnd Microbass by the bed in the spare room, together with the two basses of the moment (the others are upstairs), and it's a rare day it doesn't get switched on.

Sometimes I look at my bass playing equipment. I always carry my hands and my fingers with me and often look at them closely.

Sorry, for all the Keiths out there, this is how we spell it!

Oh, and as ex Yorks knew exactly what you meant by "plays pop"

I am from Bradford though... my Nan used to say it all the time, pretty much when she played pop with me! You should throw it into conversation next time you're out and see what happens!?

I'm from Brighouse and its a common used phrase in our house. Espeacially with the kids! Haha!

But to answer the original question, I constantly look and tinker with mine. Luckily we have a spare room so its out of the way of the Mrs who has absolutely no interest.

I always have a rig set up.... my regular amps might stay cased up...and I'll rotate the cabs

[Marvin]

The stuff in my sig plus a 35w practice amp, an electric guitar and 20w practice amp for that and a bag of bits and bobs all live in the dinning room. The dinning room is not very big btw

[Telebass]

All my gear lives at home, but I only eer play through a Tascam MP-BT1, except when testing stuff, then I use a Fender Bassman 25 combo. All the big stuff is for rehearsals/gigs only. I often have the basses out on stands, though. Got drool over them as often as is decent...

KingBollock, get a Hercules autograb stand for the Warlock - pretty sure that will be solid, if a little pricier than average.

Hey Marv, is that a room in which you make a din? ...I'll get me coat.

[LiamPodmore]

All my basses & guitar are in a 6 way stand in my bedroom. My amp head is shoved in a cuboard somewhere in the house and i did have a 25w practice amp, but it's still at the drummers house.

Certainly was on Thursday when I set up the Ampeg with the combo
