Or sell the 10 guitars and concentrate on basses only?Ā š¤ Ā In the last 50+ years I owned 1 bass for 26 years and 2 bases for the next 25 years. For the last year I've owned 5 basses and I can't shake the feeling that that is way too many. Many years ago I decided that I'd rather own 2 Ā£2000 basses than 8 Ā£500 basses. Ā I'd sell the bass and guitar you play the least. Keep doing this until you get to a sensible total. . . . . or. . . . sod it,Ā just buy another 3 basses. 1 Quote
