I have been buying and selling lefty basses for 6+ years... I finally slowed down and kept this arsenal (due to many reasons). Many basses moved that I wish I never parted with but that's how GAS goes sometimes. I still have a nice arsenal tho. No more cheaper basses, I moved them all except my Schecter Scorpion (not pictured). That bass plays like a 2k bass and only cost me $250. It is still for sale tho ;)

If this is what kept after buying and selling countless basses they are probably all incredible sounding instruments!
I particluarly like this Zon.

Now tell us, from all the ones you sold, which one do you regret the most?

Probably the Ken Smith 25th Anniversary and the FBass BN5 (aka Blonde)... I loved those basses. :cry:

Just wondering, how long have you been playing bass? Over at talkbass, it seemed like the basses bought to years playing ratio was about 1:1 (i.e. one bass purchased for every year playing). Was wondering if lefties satisfy their GAS less because of the stark choices between low end choices, or higher end choices with no in between?

For me, personally, I feel like a punctuated equilibrium governs my GAS attacks. There will be periods where I don't desire a new bass, and then all of a sudden, I will see something in a store or on ebay I like and then I want to go crazy buying stuff.

Jim, I am surprised you did not keep at least one vintage sounding bass like a jazz or a P-bass -

I recently got to hear your 3 song demo with Sol Drop (from a friend who was at the Avalon show). You do sound heavy my friend! You should post a link for the other board members.
