Rayman Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='119573' date='Jan 13 2008, 04:28 PM']My Black Stingray has been with me for about 2 years and I'll never get rid of it.[/quote] Ditto. My black ray and Sunburst jazz are for keeps. I've been through quite a few basses over the years, but these two are as close to "the ones" I've come. Still wish I'd got my Marcus Miller and my Lakland JO, if I'd managed to keep them too, I reckon I'd be GAS free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Starting to think my Sandberg JJ is, but when I recieve the ACG eventually, maybe that will blow all away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 [quote name='tauzero' post='119896' date='Jan 14 2008, 12:30 AM']It was a version of the Thumb designed by bassist John Davis which had a shallower body and neck than standard, making it a bit lighter and much easier to play than the standard Thumb. Unfortunately the email I had from Warwick about it has gone in a hard disc crash - I have a vague feeling that the JD was the first Thumb, being a cut-down Streamer, but this may be bollocks. Ah, [url="http://warwickthumb.web-log.nl/"]it might not be bollocks[/url] after all.[/quote] Cheers, I didn't know that. Big fan of Thumb basses.

Although my is a natural StingRay. I think they compliment each other superbly and I don't want to replace either of them, unless it's for an upgrade of the same thing. i.e. a Miller Jazz. The only thing I could want in addition is a Precision style bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 For me there are two 'The One's, and I own them both... one is called Wal, the other's called Shuker. At some point, I'd like to have a fretless The One as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 [quote name='WarPig' post='119903' date='Jan 14 2008, 12:53 AM']Yet to find ''the one'', but hoping it comes in the form of a 75' RI Jazz, with black on maple fingerboard and loads-a-chrome.....[/quote] You might enjoy a quick look at this: [url="http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/usedbasses.htm"]http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/usedbasses.htm[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 i don't think i'll ever be pleased with just one bass. And i don't really have all that much to spend on basses either so i think it will be a long time before i find my "one" any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
