doctor_of_the_bass Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 No probs! She (Mrs Wilkes!) is still in the family so to speak - can you believe its over 10 years that the old Yahoo clubs were first set up! My collection is now reaching critical mass - I've got 57 basses and at least 13 lesser instruments (geetars!) so I'm either going to open a bass shop, buy a bigger house or sell them all and buy a Lamborghini (think thats how to spell it)! I recently picked up a JayDee Calibas 6 string bass - monstrous. Just need to learn how to play it. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7string Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Wow!! That's a great (and varied) bass armoury. Superb!! It's always good to have a burglar alarm though. Luckily, I have one of those as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its terrifying how quickly time has passed, Im 40 in September!!!! 57 Basses, thats crazy talk you lucky bugger. Not sure what to do with my lot, not sure wether to go for any more, i sold about 10-12 over the last couple of years to buy some more fenders and slightly older basses and a few guitars to increase the value of the collection. I might go alembic, not sure at the moment nothing really taken my fancy lately. Re Mrs Wilkes, if you ever fancy a swap type deal let me know mate.
