Well I lucked out this morning; she didn’t have time to do the daily audit because of an early morning meeting. My only salvation will be to showing her several listing from me on eBay. Hopefully a bid or two would allow me to have children again (not that I want to!) :eek:

I’ve already exhausted every angle of naming basses after her, bought one for her birthday, anniversary, Christmas, Groundhog Day, you name it. She doesn’t play bass nor is she left handed. I don’t think I’m in too much trouble really.


But damn the torpedoes I’m excited and of course there will be pictures, after I clean her up. I can’t believe I actually won, the counter in the last few minutes jumped about 50 views, and I usually always get shot down in the last few seconds.

You guys are great; your input made this a fun shopping trip. :D

Sometimes I come home and there's a box in the entry way and Erika just says, "A bass came today."

I think she's used to it now.

Congrats, Chuck!

My wife is so busy right now I don't think she has time to really let me have it! :D

More good news though, the FedEx site says the Sterling will arrive tomorrow! This will be in time for the drunken Thursday night jam, I hope it won't need any setup. It was supposed to have been setup with Ken Smith strings, I don't know anything about those. But I've Slinky's ready to go... and beer! :D

I need to get the video on how to train my wife to have that reaction.

You ever train a bird dog? Because at first, the sound of the gun really freaks them out. And why not? It's loud! But after 300, 400 times, the dog doesn't notice the noise anymore.
