mr zed Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 2012 on Fender American Standard Precision in Oly white or Sunburst with maple. Quote
kodiakblair Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 2017 looks like it's going to be fairly GAS free Not surprised 2016 was a helluva year for it The one omission in my Peavey collection should be filled by Feb. The 32 year hunt for the fretless Bass Maniac ended and I finally bought a DB. Not much left for 2017 though I've always fancied a Vigier so never say never. Quote
bazzbass Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 I'm hoping there will be some Fender Am Stnd Jazz basses on clearance sale pending the new Pro series release Quote
paddy109 Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 I have just sold my upright and the money is burning a hole in my pocket - gonna get me a Japanese Jazz! Quote
SICbass Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 [quote name='anzoid' timestamp='1482605239' post='3201859'] Would love a fretless Precision - but one with a maple fingerboard... Bitsa or a real Fender would do the job. [/quote] Wishing you a merry GASmas! 😉 http://basschat.co.uk/topic/288789-197778-fretless-fender-precision-bass-now-l1000/ Quote
Floyd Pepper Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 I feel like 2017 is the year of the Sadowsky...... Quote
Tee Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Still looking for a 2015 CS '55 Precision in two tone sunburst. Or maybe a Gibson SB300/400. Quote
skb558 Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Yearning for a Stingray 4 MN Honeyburst. Quote
bassace Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 I've got an expensive year coming up so I'd like to avoid GAS2017. I'll take my OneTen to the gig tomorrow and hope that it will do all I need. Otherwise a new BF Super Midget is in prospect. On the bright side it'll help in reducing an embarrassing profit in my year's accounts. Quote

josie Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 So far my GAS has been strictly Guitar Acquisition Syndrome (and 2016 got away from me a bit with 6 ). But I have a nasty feeling 2017 might require a new amp. Especially with the North West Bass Bash coming up - I'll be very surprised if I come away from that without a shopping list. Quote
gazhowe Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 (edited) Stingray Classic (but likely needing to let something go to fund it). Edited December 26, 2016 by gazhowe Quote
T-Bay Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Smooth hound wireless set up, will be mine in the not too distant future. Quote
fiatcoupe432 Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Would love a xotic 5 or 6 .... Played one and wow Quote
Roland Rock Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 I've had money from a bass sale sitting in my PayPal account for over a month but no GAS! It's going to go on a new bike frame Quote
Guest Jecklin Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 As with 2016, 2015, 2014 and 2013 the only thing I gas for is a fretless musicman stingray 4. However I don't really need it, which is why it just remains on the wish list. Quote

Guest Jecklin Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Practicing setting up and breaking down my new gig equipment layout as a way to cure a hangover (?!) A GAS inducing exercise. I'm now craving a Phil Jones Bass quantum400 to sit alongside my double4 Quote
AndyTravis Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Just spotted the new ibanez models... Looks like a poor mans rob Allen style bass is on the way. SRH-500DEF 'aerium' Quote
Bilbo Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Bass-wise, I am home and dry but, if I can sell my Gibbo, it's two Ovation electro acoustic guitars for me!! Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Hmm, Ovations were the last word in electro acoustics in the 70s. I suspect there are nicer sounding things about these days... imho Quote
paddy109 Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Fulfilled my 2017 GAS by buying the flea bass on the for sale forum! Well purchased a few days ago but won't receive until 2017 ;-) Quote
JonesTheCat Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Bass and amp wise I'm actually reasonably happy. I would like to spend some time messing about with pedals and that this year though... Quote
ern500evo Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Actually GAS free at the moment, my current rig of Yamaha Attitude Ltd 2, EBS Sheehan drive pedal, GK MB Fusion and Barefaced Big Twin 2 is finally giving me the tone i've had in my head for what seems like years! I've also got my MM Bongo 4HS and Sire V7 to fall back on if I want to mix it up a bit. Maybe this will be the year I pull my finger out and actually kit myself out with some home recording kit!!
