HSB0531 Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I've successfully unloaded 3 4 out of 4 fender basses.My plan is to unload 1 more all, and put all that money into the FSF has worked. What is the FSF you ask?Well I'll tell you. It's the Future Shishkov Fund.And it's my little way of funding a new Shishkov while dumping Fenders.
veatch Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I've sold 2 guitars so far. Cleaning up a few more to make room for a Shishkov or three....
velorush Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I've been pondering selling my Fender bass. I play my old beat up Cruisebass constantly. It plays great, sounds great and I don't have to worry about nicking a pristine finish. The Fender is absolutely pristine, plays better than the Cruise and would certainly be the one a bass player would pick of the two, but there's just something about the Cruise that appeals to me.What about it bass players? Do I need an active bass? Can I get it done with just a passive Cruise? I've got the Ultimate on its way and that's considered my 50th birthday present. Would be great to have my own FSF for whatever Mr. Shishkov introduces as available after the Ultimate run is complete!

Would be great to have my own FSF for whatever Mr. Shishkov introduces as available after the Ultimate run is complete! I'd be just fine if my Hamer basses didn't have active electronics. None of my other basses have them. I've always used either the SansAmp BassDriver or my amp to tweak the EQ.
Jakeboy Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I have been selling off excess equipment for a while....the Ultimate Fund is nearly done.
Thundersteel Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I've sold 5 items on Reverb, with another 6 to go.
Feynman Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 This seems like the highest praise, confidence and support of Monsieur Shishkov. You guys are great - this is cool to see happening.

HSB0531 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Posted September 9, 2014 So now that Hamer is finito, I would say that the only new basses I would buy are a MusicMan and a Shishkov or 2.
gorch Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 I still need to decide to sell my Tally to Montelovesco.
