Yep, I've traded a bass, which may or may not be a big thing generally, but to me both what I traded away and what I got in return are very special basses
I traded my 20:th for the first Bongo I ever owned, a desert gold Bongo 5 HH! The SR is a wonderful instrument, but it never got as much playtime as any of my bongos or Heinz, I think I was always kind of in awe of the 20:th. So when the guy I sold my first Bongo to contacted me, it didn't take long for us to work out a deal. He's been playing SR5:s since the late 80's and I don't think he ever got used to the 18 V pre.
Apart from a tiny ding it's the same as when I sold it, and it still is the best sounding Bongo ever! (When I sold it I lusted for a Dargie, and I thought Desert gold would be around forever. Also, the only other Bongo I had at that time was the Envy Green, and that one won't go. Ever.)
