tauzero Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 I'm definitely out of tier 2 after getting another floor monitor. Quote
FinnDave Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 I've sold two basses, and bought nothing so far this year. 1 Quote
chris_b Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 In an attempt to boost the rapidly dwindling number still qualifying for this project. . . . I'd suggest that if we buy 1 thing it can be offset by selling 2 things. Quote

Job done and back in the game! 😂 Edited January 24, 2019 by Al Krow 3 Quote

leftybassman392 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) I've bought nothing, and since I don't play professionally any more I have no plans to buy anything. In fact there's every chance that I might sell something. I'm gonna walk this. 😎 Not gloating, you understand... ..but I am. p.s. I hope there's no time limit on entries for this one. I have been lurking the thread from time to time if that helps. Edited January 24, 2019 by leftybassman392 1 Quote

tauzero Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Perhaps we could get some hints from here: https://www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/about-aa/the-12-steps-of-aa. Just replace "God" with "Basschat". And if you fall off the wagon, don't just give up. One year month week day at a time. Quote
PatrickJ Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 I'm rebooting the challenge for myself. I fell off the Wagon twice in Jan, but I keep telling myself the deals were too good to pass on. From this point forward I shall be nothing but disciplined (excluding a possible custom build bass for my 40th, but that's a gift and already declared OK in the rules). Quote
