I'd go for Lozbass's Stanley Clark style Series II Alembic.

I'm afraid I dont' recollect who owned it but there was a Ric with black everything that I deeply coveted.

+1 here, followed by my old Sei 4 (Moonbassalpha) and Sei 5 (Ziggydolphinboy). There may be others I can't remember.....

BTW, I'm actually happy with what I've got, although if I could have anything it would be my old Alembic Triple O back!

Hadn't noticed it much
(Down GAS, down!)

[Bilbo]

Someone here has a Fodera Anthony Jackson 6 that the 17 year-old in me could use and any of the 5 string Wal's that are lying around would be good too. But, to be honest, I am happy with my own kit.

[xilddx]

I'd LOVE this, but I can't afford it at the moment http://basschat.co.uk/topic/159179-steinberger-xm-2-4-string-bass-in-red-with-white-binding-l789-incl/

[PTB]

Put me down for the sonic blue Alleva Coppolo LG5 I found on here recently. In reserve, I'll have Chris B's Lull PJ5 or one of the many Sadowsky 5s on display.

There's a theme there you'll note.

It was - but it's been sold in the last few weeks

[swanbrook]

loved Grand wazoo's dingwals ....so bought one
but that prs bass he has is mental,that one would be class

[stingrayPete1977]

Lots of love for EBS_freaks white GB on here I see, Im going to get a play on it tonight!

Im still not sure but for now Im going to play it safe with Gunsfreddy's Classic Ray 5 but I have some serious gas for an Xotic jazz so if anyone has one of those it could be that instead

[blind pilot]

Bassically this is my dream bass, and there is more than one on here.....let me tell you, the list of things I would do to own one of these is pretty long!

Whats gutting is 5 years ago before I was back playing bass and in a band, I went out and spent thousands on home hifi/cinema stuff.........I could have bought one of these and had change for a GK head etc.........

Wals are my dream bass too. In a similar fashion I spent a few thousand on synths, drum machines and outboard effects in the early 90s. For some reason buying a Wal didn't occur to me...
(of course I now realise in the last 2 years I've spent over £2,500 on a few different basses, when I could have just had one... )

[Toasted]

Toasted's Celinder J-Update 4. Oh wait, that is mine!

I've been coveting Loz's sonic blue Alleva Coppolo LG4 with matching headstock and DN board for a good while

Gentlemen - you are all extremely kind. I wish I was in ownership of talent similar to yours! And 4000 - if I'd have bought your Triple O (and I wish I had), its return would be offered immediately, even though the walnut facing is the finest I've ever seen.

awwww min! sorry to hear that

[Randy_Marsh]

LawrieMacmillans Ice Blue Sadowsky is really doing it for me at the minute. However, I'm really happy with my blue and maple SR4 at the minute

[hillbilly deluxe]

Bass Doc's Precision,it was lust at first sight.....................many years ago.

This. Impeccable taste sir

[Rick's Fine '52]

Anything from Ricksfine52 collection would probably secure at least two of anything anyone else suggests but that would be cheating......I will come back later....
[/quote]

Thanks Pete, I'd swap them for more ability in the bass department though, I hit a wall a few years back, and can't seem to improve anymore! Hey, ho!

[Doctor J]

Alanbass1's white BB2024x. I've lusted after one of these since they came out and I'm still no closer to owning one. Jaysus.

[cocco]

There's way too much choice, I'd love Shockwaves Antigua Green Warmoth P-J, or that sonic blue 75 RI that recently sold, or Clarkys Pino, or the 70s bicentennial T-Bird that someone owns. Although realistically my Grabber, T-40 and Stingray pretty much do everything I need them to. I'd love a grabber in better condition than mine too

[Graham]

Anyone who's got a Wal Mk II with a walnut top - if I won the lottery that'd be pretty much the first thing I'd be after.


Also, there was a 70s Precision in white with a maple board and black pick guard in the sale thread a little while ago, would love that if only so I could pretend I was Matt Freeman

I still have my original '86 zebrano topped Monarch and part of the deal on the Yin Yang has seen a glossy new solid flame maple Ritter Cora arrive at my house

http://www.bassgear.co.uk/products-page/bass-guitars/ritter/ritter-cora-4-late-lounge

Will try to get some better pics sorted as the ones here don't really do the finish justice (it's darker with a deeper flame but probably very hard to capture!).
