What do you reckon is the best looking bass on the market? Not talking about tone or ease of playing or cost just a flat out " that is a beautiful looking bass" kind of thing

Standard P bass, do you want a colour ?

Sadowsky make beautiful looking basses. Here's an example

This is going to go two ways - coffee tables and solid colours!

I love the look of a Stingray 4 in white with a maple neck....it's just a shame I don't like the sound of them

The limited edition Warwick basses can look really sleek (and some are shockingly gross too). I love the Corvette they did with a poplar top and gloss finish.



Also have a soft spot for a 70's Jazz with a matching headstock.

Dingwall Lee Sklar model is just doing it for me every time, or possibly the Gus G4 or G5. Total bass porn

One thing I have learnt from internet forums is just how surprising other people's idea of" beautiful "can be compared to my own ( superior) taste.

I love vintage Fenders in sunburst, though I doubt I will ever buy another nowadays .

I'd definately go for this bass. I can't explain why, there's something about it that just really appeals to me.

There are too many to choose from

Totally agree that everyone's opinion's differ. For me, a vintage P bass in sunburst is the most vanilla/magnolia/boring looking bass ever. For me, in terms of looks it's like buying a tesco value bass.
