A white with black pick guard Precision with a maple neck. I'm in a bit of a Paul Simonon phase at the moment. I really fancy one of those Eastwood Kustom K200 copies as well.

I could do with a 5-string fretless.
I kinda like the look of these two:

But no idea what they're like to play or listen to. And they're both MILES away.

Have a look at the Sire 5 string fretless, they're meant to be great. Thomann sell them. There's a YouTube video of a British lad demoing/reviewing it with glowing reports.

Let's also say that I wouldn't mind "bumping" into a good single coil 51 P reissue, if I saw one. I have good memories about the JAP ones they used to do around 10 years ago.

The irony is, that very same night I happened to find one for sale in the marketplace section of the forum, contacted the guy and after a visit I came back home with it the next evening XD

Great find, obviously you guys are all responsible for me draining my yearly tax refund in less than 12 hours.

Lakland 5 - but it has to be the right one. Spotted a beauty with quilted maple top on Gruhn's (Nashville) website last week for $1800 but when I went in the next morning it was gone. Tried a couple of others there and elsewhere, but they didn't talk to me. No hurry. I go back a couple of times a year to visit my son and his family, he is always up for guitar shopping, and when the time is right the right bass will jump off the wall into my arms. You know what it's like. All my 8 guitars have just told me they were coming home with me, and the next one will too :)

I have some serious GAS for a 5 string, headless bass. no idea why but the pull is string. Currently looking at NS Design, Status and Steinberger. This could get messy........

Pickup upgrade for my Squier VM P5 - Delano PMVC 5FE/M2.

Empress Compressor.

Squier Dimension Deluxe 5 string in Black/Black/Maple.

A place of my own to spend as much time as I like tweaking my sound through my full rig, at volume and without my wife or anyone else complaining about the noise.

Nothing. I brought my gorgeous Jazz Aerodyne back from Nashville last month, my gorgeous GMR fretless 4 arrived last week and a top-flight GMR 5 is arriving next week. It will be at least another couple of weeks before I want anything else :)

Having watched Bravado at Rush EuCon on Saturday... a Ricky 4001. Sounded bloody lovely.

Sadly having played a 70s and current back to back the 70s has a much slimmer neck and would be the one for me and thus out of pocket reach.

One of these :)

Yamaha BB1200s

Musicman Big Al 4 SSS

Gibson G-3 (original, not 70s Tribute - I miss mine a bit)

An old, beat up, missing bits post 1972 Gibson EB-3L for restoration.

Money available for this - none. Anyone feeling generous? ;)
