I’d much rather have the single bass.

If I remember correctly, @John_E has three women in the house. There is no upper limit to the physical number and stylistic variance of shoes that can be had.

I am so lucky my daughter takes after me: one pair, wear 'em till they fall apart (or, in her case, outgrow them).

Thanks! They are all John Fluevog shoes.
Been collecting and wearing for decades.

Oh, John. I can’t imagine having enough money to collect basses, much less shoes. :rofl::joy::rofl:

I do enjoy living vicariously through your pedal collection, though. :sunglasses::+1:

I love how you have the Aerodynes sorted by visual color spectrum wavelength.

Completely by accident.
I had no idea. Lol
For real.

Guess my engineer/scientist brain is on all the time.

I think this one has @Koldunya to blame for. Pretty sure it was you that got me thinking about Phil Jones.
Bass Cub Pro 120.

The sound is insane and lots of power. Can even drive my Fearless cab if for some reason this is ever a thing (doubt it). But now I have a super mobile combo for jamming with a undiscovered buddy/guitarist.

Can also use it for the drum pad, or the best buddy, or the keyboard, or a double bass one day. Multi-tasker.

What size speakers?

Stopped by the post office. Little things for the weekend.

Of disappointment is EMG. First I ordered two pickups on Reverb and only received one today, second went to their site and tried to order something in stock that has been out, and their payment processor isn’t working.

Oh well. Minor stuff in the scheme of things

It’s one of those things that you look at, listen to, and go… “how the F$#&?”

Perhaps @John_E was the inspiration for this guy:

Nice gear! Phil Jones stuff is so well thought out. I’m always pleasantly surprised with them.

I sold my Cub 100 a few weeks ago because I rarely use it and also because I prefer the new speakers from the C2. Ugh stop feeding my GAS lol

Sorry. I had went and demo’ed it months ago and fell in love with the sound instantly. Low B string notes were no problem for this little guy too.

The nice thing is even though it’s a bass amp you can basically use it for everything. Now all I need is a place to carry it to.

Well, @Mac did buy a 45 acre ranch. Ostensibly to keep horses, but we all know it was so that he’d have room to set horse traps his amps out in the open.
