First I hope the bass is found. This is exactly why I play the old dean edge basses if I play out. I think they are awesome especially the price now the part about micro chipping a bass ( or anything for that matter) am I the first person to think of this? My cell phone can be tracked to within 500 feet and at most it would cost $700.00 to replace it. For a bass that costs 10 grand why wouldn't something like that be stuck in a notch between neck laminates? Mica? Alembic people? The carvin idea is nice but you'd still have to actually find the bass to scan it. Why can't Alembic basses be like sharks, you know? Stick a tag in them somewhere where they'll never know and you can turn on a computer and put in your ID number and a little searching and 30 seconds or so later BAM! You could see where (within 500 feet or whatever) it's at! If it were between neck lame no one is going to go digging for that! I think that's an awesome idea for people that can order a new bass. Poor people like me would have to wait for technology to trickle down for a used one but that's okay. If I'm first to think of it, you're welcome, maybe I get a discount? You can just email me from my profile. Thanks lol
