Carl called my house while i was at school a few days ago, and he got the check.

And so it begins; start the clock!

clock started.

was he going to just go strait into doing it, or are there other basses he needed to get done first.

plenty of other stuff he has to do before he gets to mine. I'm expecting at least a month or two or three before he calls me to let me know he's starting on mine.

i dunno i guess i just feel bad because i dont feel like i deserve them in terms of experience and talent as a bass player.

In my opinion one should always own the best possible instrument they can afford- it will make you want to play more, having a good instrument to play with. Not to mention you will be able to play some things infinitley better on a Modulus, Zon, Warwick, KSD, any high end builder for that matter, then on a mexican fender clone.

If it fosters a better learning environment and sounds better, why not? They are instruments, not pieces of art- although they may look like pieces of art, they play amazing and that is what counts. So I don't think you should feel bad to own a high end piece of gear. Experience shouldn't dictate what you own IMO.
