I'd probably take it to every gig. Just like I'll do when they eventually release a BFR Bongo.

 

[hankSRay]

B) I'm a wuss.

 

[Frantic Slayer]

[TSanders]

I'm not ready for a BFR Bongo.

Really.

Unless I can sell my kid or something.

 

[Psycho Ward]

How much for the kid?

 

[Smakbass]

id gig it...

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

Gig it and show that baby off!

I've only got one closet queen (can I say that?) that I use for recording - all the other guitars are gigged.

 

[Bassmanslap]

No question.

Play it every gig!

I won't slap as much on it but I'll play it.

as I see it - a bass is a tool, it may be a very personal/unique/one of a kind/special tool but it's made to be used for a specific purpose and if it's only kept in a closet then no one enjoys it and it's potential is wasted.

thats ok if you are a collector and if you bought it solely as an investment but if you bought it because of it's feel, finish, looks and/or sound then you wont be able to play gig or reharsh with any other bass untill you know how this bass sounds in a band setting and untill the initial excitment has worn out and you came back to your senses and you look at it as just another fine tool in your toolbox.

if however you cant bring yourself to play it you can always send it to me

 

[midopa]

what is it
i'll rape it

 

[Sonnyonbass]

I would use it at every gig that called for that particular bass.
Guitars tend to sound better when played a lot. or at least, that's what I like to think...

 

[Kristopher]

You can't make other bassists jealous unless you show it off at all your gigs!

I'd play the heck out of it and make sure it looked like I never put it down.

 

[Aussie Mark]

People gig Alembics and other expensive basses, so why not gig the BFR?

If not, it would be like owning a Ferrari and leaving it in the garage all the time.

Spot on!

 

[shamus63]

Gig the damn thing!

 

[Russel]

It would be a very well used, very well loved, very well cared for bass, were I to possess one.
