Members Crescent Seven Posted July 31, 2007 Members Share Posted July 31, 2007 You married a bass? No, I married a selfish, status-obsessed bitch that drove us into debt with her overwhelming need to keep up with her trust-funded friends. Now I'm selling gear instead of buying it, and she's talking about buying a new car. C7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Retrovertigo Posted July 31, 2007 Members Share Posted July 31, 2007 Did heavy mods on my first bass ('97 Squier P). Things started off ok, I replaced the stock pickups with Bartolini's. Next, I spray painted the body gray and covered the pick guard in metal tape. It looked awful and the paint was really rough. After that, I sanded the body down to bare wood and tried desperately to get the tape and residue off the p.g. I figured, if I"m already taking stuff off the bass, the frets should probably go too. A butter knife and some wood glue later, it was semi-fretless. (Only 'semi' because I didn't really sand the board; there were large bumps from the glue) Weeks later, I went finish sanding the back of the body. I took off the neck and walked across the room, only to trip, fall and break the neck in half on my desk. Ah to be 14 again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Crescent Seven Posted July 31, 2007 Members Share Posted July 31, 2007 Sorry, C7. Perhaps my joke that your post was OT wasn't too wise. Keeping up with the Joneses is tough. No worries. I needed to get that off my chest I guess, and typing it is better than freaking out on an office full of people that don't even know my name.

Members walkerci Posted August 1, 2007 Members Share Posted August 1, 2007 Which is why, when I get married, bank accounts remain seperate for the first 5 years. 5 years is not enough. Get a joint checking account for household expenses and keep ALL other accounts separate - including brokerage accounts, credit cards, car loans, etc. Do not under any circumstances get joint credit cards. If she has substantially more personal income and assets than you, you can ignore the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
