acidbass Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Hello all, Just a wee poll for us BCers to get an idea of the spread of basses that we all use! Apologies if I've left any major manufacturers out...hopefully I've covered most of them Cheers, Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Well, after having just recieved a Squire VMJ, I've selected squire as it'll get the most use over the summer between practice, reharsals and any gigs that may occur. Looks like my aerodyne will collect dust for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesandman Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) My number one is a 5 string Bongo with a single H. If it's a wedding or a party gig, I'll bring a Stingray to slap on. I get the sounds I need from the Bongo and love the way it plays. I've got a couple of Fenders but the Bongo is my work horse.

neepheid Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Difficult to say - I'd have to say my recently completed build (I voted accordingly), but my first bass (Epi EB-3) is a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
