How to spend $1,500
How to spend $1,500
I was thinking about my next bass. I played a number of them recently
(review at http :// www .azwebpages,com /bass/BunchOfBasses.htm), so I was
leaning towards something in the $1,500 price range.
But at the same time I have an RSS feed for the local Craigslist. I see
a lot of inexpensive basses there, some of which are great deals. If I
played my cards right I could add another 5 to 8 basses to the stable
for $1,500. They might be Squiers, MiMs, OLPs, Epiphones, Ibanezes, and
Yamahas but what the heck?
Any thoughts? Surely somebody else here has done something similar.

I have 5 guitars and a bass.
Each guitar servers a purpose.
I have a Guild Bluesbird with P-90's (my main guitar).
I have a Morgan Monroe acoustic/electric, a 1968 Telecaster, an
electric dobro and a Gibson SG Doubleneck.
I don't need two electric guitars but I hate to part with either of
them.
My bass is an Olp MM2.
Amps is a different story.
Main amp is a 1989 Marshall half stack
I don't have any guitars with humbuckers except the doubleneck.
One may be in my future.
I really don't want another bass.
My Olp is set up nice and I like the way it looks, plays and sounds.
If I had $1500 to spend...hmmm.
There is nothing out there that is worth $1500 to me.

Re: How to spend $1,500
If you need to ask you obviously don't need anything.
You must send all $1500 to me immediately for my own personal use. I will
use it to pay off my MarkBass amp and put the rest toward a Carvin Icon 5
string.
I own a very large bridge in Brooklyn you can send it to me there.

Ha, like I'm one to talk. I am physically looking at 4 guitars and 3 basses
right now. I have several more in the closet. I have constantly been on MF,
GC and Carvin websites perusing what I am going to buy next. And this is
after paying off my White Falcon just last month.
I posed your same question a while because back around Christmas I had a
no-bills pay check, Xmas bonus and my unused sick time. I had close to $5k.
Everyone told me to invest it in something. Well I took their advice, I
invested it in ROCK & ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep leaning that way. One Porsche or ten Hondas? You can only drive one
at a time....
Unless a unique and interesting cheapo just comes along (ie a hollowbody
Ventura or an OPL 30" scale baritone or a Dano re-issue) you're just
gonna be cluttering up yer life.
Check out Subway Guitars in Berkley.
http :// www .fatdawg,com /bass.html
That place is the Mecca of cool and cheap.

Re: How to spend $1,500
Bingo. I own 2 bases that cost over a grand, and they are wokhorses meant to
address a specific need.
Every other bass I own - including my American and Mexican Fenders - I paid
under $200 for. That's not a typo.
Outside of the Fenders, they are all offbeat guitars, or raw material for
hacking - tenor guitar, OLP 8 string conversion, Ibanez Lawsuit EB copy,
synth bass, etc. I've put additional money into most, but I also paid well
under $200 for most of them too.
Buying 10 Squier basses to prove to yourself that they're as good as one
Custom Shop Fender makes no sense to me. Nor does buying an expensive
"furniture bass" just to have it.
Think about what it is you want to DO with bass playing, then get a bass
that will help you accomplish that goal.

I mean no disrespect to you (or JeffB) with what I'm about to say, but
that's spoken like a true professional.
For the last 18 years I've made my living with computers. You should see
what my current machine looks like. Like you say, it's a workhorse. I've
got a few other machines laying around that I've built and abandoned
over the years once they became useless to my profession. I only keep
them around to salvage for parts if needed.
I get no joy looking at new computers or keeping up with the latest
gear. I only pay attention to those things that affect my business. I
haven't touched the inside of my current PC in probably two years except
to swap audio cards. I've never owned a current generation CPU (not
enough bang for the buck). To me my computer is a mule, and I'm a farmer.
By contrast, I play bass for fun. If I did it for a living like you guys
do/did, I'd have a very similar attitude and gear to match. But the
reality is that I get enjoyment from spending my disposable income on
gear I don't need for a hobby that is purely an expense.
I hope that clears up my perspective on things. Surely you pro musicians
have hobbies on which you blow money. Cars? Guns? Knitting supplies?

LOL!
You should see the massive collection of cord and tools I have for doing
fancy knotwork. Not quite knitting but close enough that your point is
well taken.
You really gotta check out Fatdog's bass page. He has some very cool
stuff. And if you ever find yourself in the Bay Area you HAVE to go to
his shop Subway Guitars. The stuff on his website doesn't even begin to
scratch the surface of what's in the shop at any given time. It's one of
my most favorite places in the whole world.

I will definitely check it out. I already took a glance at the link and
quickly realized it was one of those sites where I need a cup of coffee
and some extended free time.

OK I see your point. Still once you get below a certain price you're
just getting junk. The fun would be in finding basses that should
sound good and still learning how to stick your finger in the holes in
your sound dyke.
What you got already? The fun is in the looking, init?

To clarify, it's not "purely" an expense. Most of my years have been
spent in cover bands where I take home cash after gigs. But overall I
don't consider it a money making venture.

I think you misunderstand. That's EXACTLY what I'm saying. Get something
wacky that you've always wanted to try but could never justify the money. I
dunno, like a fan fret bass, double neck, 7 string, 12 string, KYDD bass,
Alembic Spyder with LEDs, God help me, even a Wishbass - whatever you're
dreaming about experimenting with.
Like Jeff said, either buy a bunch of inexpensive offbeat pieces, or one big
one. You can always buy a Squier. And unless you really have a hankerin' for
bubinga and purplehart, buying a run-of-the-mill furniture bass won't bring
you all that much joy.
As for my money pissers, music and recording gear is the main one. Although
it's not really "pissing away" money for me because a) all my purchases are
tax write-offs b) I'm really good at wheeling and dealing, and/or spotting
bargains. c) I actually use the stuff for work.
Woodworking/Luthierie would be second, but it's also functional (and
deductible)
So I guess my most frivolous money blow is on cigars. I can walk into JR and
blow a couple hundred bucks in 15 min or less, and STILL not get all that I
want. Of course, it doesn't help that I live 30 min. from the World's
Largest Humidor...
