How do I tell my wife I just bought another bass?

[Grimalkin]

There's an old proverb about this:

 

"When one has selected new bass, one must select new wife."

 

Wipe the slate so to speak.

That’s surely the most expensive way to buy a bass?

There are several 'two for one' package deals available nowadays, especially if you use mail-order. You can get both delivered at the same time.

You could always wear this T shirt 😁

How about a one in one out policy?

Whether that's basses or wives is up to you

Just slap her on the derrière and say 'get the dinner on love'.

 

Yes I'm single 😟

A drummer mate of mine once managed to introduce an entire new range-topping Yamaha kit to the house by simply ensuring it was the same colour as his existing one. 

 

I tried that with a Lotus Elise years ago, same colour, faster, higher spec etc, she noticed in 30secs.🤣🤣

Buy a bass in her favourite colour , it’s amazing how accepting women are if they like the colour .

Keep to the same model , if they look vaguely similar , you can say you’ve had it for ages . 
Occationally sell a bass , this helps with the “one in , one out “ theory .

My wife is acutely aware of my buying and selling habits , if you buy well , you will rarely loose money , and you get to enjoy a great instrument to boot.
