I Might Be Insane

[bovinehost]

I could sell my Custom Shop Jazz, my Reverend Houser and maybe my Carbon Blue Bongo and order a Buttercream Bongo single pickup and maybe.....a Stingray four?

Am I insane?

Holy carp.

That doesn't sound like a horrible idea.

 

[spectorbassguy]

Insane? No way man. It is the life of the gear whore!

 

[spectorbassguy]

Oh yeah - how much for the Reverend?

 

[midopa]

Am I insane?

Not at all. But do you really need to sell all of those to fund a BC Bongo and SR? Methinks the Jazz and either the Reverend or the Bongo could cover it?

 

[bovinehost]

I don't know if I'd really do it or not....but I might. I have to go to DC for a couple of weeks so I can't do anything until that's over, and that will give me time to think.

I guess the CS Jazz is worth somewhere between 1700-1800 bucks? It's like new, got all the extras and case candy and certificates and covers and whatnot. What do these things sell for? Anyone know?

The Reverend....hmmm, can't get 'em anymore, limited run, who knows what it's worth? Anyone? I think I paid 750 for it.

The Blue Bomber Bongo is also nearly mint, plus it has extra pickguards, so I figure maybe 850-900?

Anyone think my numbers are way off? Input is welcome......

Hold on there. Didn't your wife give you the Jazz as a gift? Before I describe your fate should you sell, I'll await your answer.

 

[bovinehost]

Oh no, no, no. That's a 62 RI Jazz and no, it's not going anywhere.

You can get another CS Jazz and you can get another Bongo. You might not be able to get another Reverend.

 

[bovinehost]

The HouserFish is a very cool bass and it makes some righteous noise, but I never play the poor thing.

 

[Mobay45]

It is truly unique. I don't think anyone else will make one like it.

 

[cgworkman]

Show us the pics that we know you have...please?

 

[phatduckk]

ya ... i dont think its too nuts to sell anything that you could buy again.

so maybe the rev should stay but the rest ... eh ... you could always end up with other ones

 

[bovinehost]

All those basses (and more) can be easily found by visiting my Current Basses Page.

If you've never been to the Ex-Basses Page, well, don't go, okay?

[FireAarro]

Doesn't sound like a bad idea to me. I only wish the Bongo was a HH 5 string

 

[jongitarz]

Am I insane?

Who am I to judge


Or as Charles Manson once said "Is it hot in here, or am I crazy"

 

[phatduckk]

i mean, seriously, there's a limited color Bongo ... and you're Lord Bongo; so how could you not get it?

 

[bovinehost]

Well, I have some time to mull it over while I'm off working, keeping our nation safe....

Anyone interested in any of these basses, drop me a PM. I hate to put good stuff on eBay but it's not like I haven't done it before.....

Jon, prepare Leo's workbench, sir.

Heh heh.

Its obvious that youve been wanting a Single H Bongo, and if youre not playing the other basses, I think youd be insane NOT to get rid of them for a buttercream Single H Bongo. Id be very jealous then. Well wait, you have 4 Bongos. Im jealous now.
