Jackroadkill Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 So glad I didn't sign up; so far it's a scratchplate and a chorus pedal, but there's potential for so much worse. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear the extreme south of South America is quite chilly at that time of year - I think they even speak some Welsh down there so you'll feel quite at home 😁. Wyt ti'n iawn.

Well, you didn't explicitly say you were in, but seeing as you're declaring you're out, that implies that you thought you were in, so I will record accordingly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 It would be easy if I only bought from here. Very few basses here that I'm interested in buying, though some very nice examples of gear I'd love for nowt. Being an Xmas baby I was forced to buy myself a geeetar as I couldn't find a bass that I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bass_dinger Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I appear to already have been entered into this year's challenge - thank you. I am likely to be out - last year's failure was a purchase of a bass guitar that needs a new neck. Not so much a repair, as a rebuild. Can I sign up for 2025 now....? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
