chaypup Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The real question is - why have you only got two basses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazzbass Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The Law of Bass n = B + 1 n is optimal number of basses B is number of basses currently owned. You can't argue the maths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I did once ask of Mrs. Maude, "How can you need so so many pairs of shoes with only one pair of feet?" To which she replied, "How can you need so many basses with only one pair of hands?" She now buys whatever shoes she wants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Hang on a cotton picking minute. If n = B + 1, and n = D - 1, then B + 1 = D - 1 and therefore D = B + 2 so you need two more basses than you currently have to narrowly avoid divorce.
