MikanHannille Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 My jazz bass bought brand new on 2009. Sold on 2015. Now my current is my Lakland 55-94 bought used 2014. Still with me up to now. I think I'll take this with me to the grave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns-bass Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Been using my 66 Jazz Bass for 10 years and toured and recorded it. Sold the other 15 basses I had at the time and went down to this one. Added the 64’ this year, but it’s only been played for about 3 hours so I might sell it and go back down to the one.

chrisanthony1211 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Before I found basschat I had a Status Stealth which I had for about 10 years and only sold when my daughter was born and I gave up playing for a while, since I found basschat basses are lucky to last a year!!

mep Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I owned a Charvel 2B for around 29 years u believe. Bought it when they first came out in the late 80's and sold it recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thodrik Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I've had the same 1978 (or 1979) Fender Precision since 1999. I will never be selling it. I've had a 1974 Gibson EB3 since 2000 which I won't selling either. Those are the only basses I own that are older than me. I had a Westfield Precision bass since 1998, but I gave to my nephew last year as a Christmas give. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldman Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Just copped this thread. I have owned my Thumb 4 NT fretted since new 1988, I twinned it about 7 years ago with an ‘89 Fretless. Promised to my grandson as a legacy so they are going nowhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
