Guest M-rek Posted June 7, 2019 Posted June 7, 2019 hey there! I'm the new kid... 26-yo German bassist, playing for about 15 years now. First musical experience was on the glockenspiel in school, got a keyboard after that, dived into drumming, started a school band and played guitar and finally arrived at the low end at the age of 11. Main reason: 'cause I loved the Red Hot Chili Peppers and wanted to do all the cool stuff Flea does. I dreamt of getting a real Stingray since day one but had to play my first bass (an Ibanez GSR 190) for about 8 years as I couldn't afford something else. In 2017 I finally bought my Stingray (2003 SR-EX made in Japan) and was a happy camper ever since. But I caught the G.A.S., a quite heavy one. I do have two lists, one with the basses I have, one with the basses I had. The first list counts 11 basses, the second counts 15. So, yeah... I may post the lists of current and gone basses, if you're interested. So far... Cheers! Quote
