ezbass Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 An additional one for me would be my very first bass, a Yamaha BB300 in poop brown. A heavy weight beast, that would rule it out for my current requirements, but it’d be nice just for nostalgia’s sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fab bass no doubt, but it wasn't even the 7 strings - it was the neck contour, "bubbly" sound and Conklin magic.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snorkie635 Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 Never tried an RB IV, but if I could have a go for about five years, I'm sure I'd have an opinion ready for feedback. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Stanley Clarke has/had an Alembic 'brown bass'. Imagine if it had been marketed as a Stanley 'Poop' model!🤷🏻♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacDaddy Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Haven't got a pic, but I'd be interested in tracking down my old 6 string Shuker. Sold it many years ago on a previous incarnation of Basschat, but can't remember to whom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never took the C3 anywhere until I sold it. Those things are nuts! I bought a smaller Hammond for gigs, a 1967 M102 that was split for transport but even that became too much. I still play air Hammond sometimes, my back doesn’t mind that so much 👍 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownote Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Peavey Grind 5. Should never have sold it. Ditto my last of several Hohner B Bass Pro VIs. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shouldn't have sold my Hohner B either, light, great neck and easy to play. I had two other basses and three felt excessive back then - went to a young lad learning, I hope he enjoyed it. Would have been awesome for my daughter in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I stupidly sold this bass when I was 18 though. Last known owner is/was a studio in Suffolk, But I don't know which and I have no way of finding out. This one was an absolute peach and I made a big moral mistake selling it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
