The P Bass I bought in 89 and traded in Jaydee copy for it funny enough at a Guitar shop in Romford. The JayDee came along more recently and was fairly cheap, but as you say may become more valuable in time. I bought it because I'd always wanted one. But a guitar is like a girl, in that you have to live with it for a while before you can decide if its a keeper or not
It's nice to have bit of a Hareem
I would keep the Strat Stu, US and Jap Fenders hold value very well
If you buy another, get something different - variety is the spice....

A Rik? What you mean a Rickenbacker?
Hell yeah. That would be nice.

The Double Bass? Must go with the Quiff
To show my age, I saw Bill Hailey and the Comets live. God knows how old they were, but they had to use a Stanah Stairlift to get the old boy up on the Bass to do his old "balancing" tricks....Happy days.
