It's only reasonable to discount the void that is lockdown, right? Nov 20 --> [lockdown void] --> Jan 22 I mean, apart from all the gigs we did over the last 6 months, and AndyT churning 36 basses, nothing much has happened in between, right? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get salty on me because you’ve rumbled…bloody pedal rustling.

I'm just replacing a bit of kit that I had previously and not really trying something new (third time lucky with this one). Just thinking out loud here, but if this were allowed to wash, then wouldn't @AndyTravisbe allowed to buy any bass he wants on the grounds that he used to own one? 🤣🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I very nearly bought an amp at 2 in the morning on New Year's Day. Thought I'd leave it 'til the morning as it was a want, not a need. Luckily it was sold by the time I got up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 So glad to get in before the lock. I might actually be tempted to sell something.

gapiro Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) I may be out soon.... someone has borrowed my volume pedal and not returned it, and I'm doing 2 weeks in a pit orchestra from wednesday (where the literal mandatory pedal to have is a volume pedal) Let's hope someone owes up on my facebook post Edited January 3, 2022 by gapiro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Followed by replacement of whoever neglected to return your volume pedal. Hopefully when you communicate to them the pressing need for its return they'll do the right thing.

binky_bass Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I'll join, but in a similar vein to @hiram.k.hackenbacker - I have a fully paid up for ACG that's due to arrive in a few weeks, as it's fully paid up and just waiting to be shipped I'm thinking it doesn't count! if the consensus agree, add me to the list!

That exception was in the original Gear Abstinence Thread, so I'm sure it still stands. When I ordered my Shuker I did think that I would have received it in 2021 before my final gigs of the year. I could have paid for it outright before 1/1/22, but that's not what Jon asked for so 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bass_dinger Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I am in for 2022. I realised how useful the 2021 challenge was, in that I focused on using what I had, and worked to improve my skill levels. I also see that the upgrades that I want, are so difficult to source, that I may as well not bother looking! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorturedSaints Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I’m in again, a successful 2021 challenger! The only thing that I might want would be a pickup for my DB. However, I’ll only be buying that if I ever get to the point of gigging again (or finding musicians to play with) so that’s unlikely. I’ll cross that bridge if it happens. In the meantime I’m contemplating a sale of excess gear, although I do get sentimentally attached to stuff - for example my not even run-in (2 rehearsals) BF Super Twin that friends and family contributed towards as a 50th birthday present. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
