LukeFRC Posted January 19, 2022 Posted January 19, 2022 Rule of thumb - if you are debating the grey areas around an abstinence challenge you’re not really doing an abstinence challenge … 1 1 Quote
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 Is the Gear abstinance challange for bass gear only? So far this year I've bought a multifx pedal (Zoom MS-50G £50) and an acoustic guitar (Vintage Statesboro parlour - a blummin' bargain at £30) so if it isn't bass-only I guess I've failed the G.A.C.

jezzaboy Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 This thread must have an old Jedi mind trick going on. I`m sitting here with some paypal cash and money for my birthday, not a lot but new Squier cash for example. And I can`t find anything to spend it on, nothing is grabbing me saying "buy me, buy me!" Bass, amp, bits and pieces, nothing is doing if for me. The wife thinks it my age. I think we should start another topic where we can tell this topic to shove it where the sun don`t shine and spend, spend, spend!! Quote

Quatschmacher Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) @Old Horse Murphydid you return the stingray? It seems to have reappeared on BD. Or are they just slow to delete? Edited January 21, 2022 by Quatschmacher Quote

Or are they just slow to delete? I did indeed return it as it was a bit too heavy for me following my back op. Trust me to get the only fat Stingray Special! Such a lovely bass too and absolutely spotless, but I swapped it for a lovely Stingray Special 5 they had in stock. Mark was great and very helpful. The new Ray is strung with flats, so is quite different from my other SR5. Edited January 22, 2022 by Old Horse Murphy 2 Quote
