How many basses do you own.

[bubinga5]

Yamaha trb6II

Fender 75 RI jazz

Fender Jazz 24

Sadowsky RV5

Love them all!!


Hoping to own either an FBass bn5 or a Pensa 5 jazz!!! soon

[markytbass]

only 2 at the mo a Warwick and a Jazz. Might be lookingn for a fretless soon.

[Paul S]

I voted '3' because, technically, the third one is still a bass.

1 - Fender Jaguar, black, with which I am totally and helplessly in love
2 - Hayman 4040, natural, with which I am also totally and helplessly in love (2 loves, am I just a whore?)
3 - Starter Peavey Milestone II with which I am, er, not. Difficult to play in the loft, I suppose, but - hey - the others might spontaneously combust or something.

Quick edit - the thing on the left says 'no longer a newbie' - how did that happen? I thought I was?

Two. Not planned that way. I still think I'll sell one of them.

I'm not sure I need both a fretted 5 string and a fretted 6 string at the same time. But I'm not sure where I should go from here. Yet.

[acidbass]

I currently own 3 fretted Jazz Basses, 1 fretless Precision, an Ibanez 4 string and a HB Beatbass - covers my sonic needs perfectly!

[redzombie]

Just the 2. A Spector Euro 4 LX (Natural Oil) and an Epiphone Thunderbird (Tobacco Sunburst).

I'm hoping to add an Ibanez ATK300 to my collection, in the not too distant future. Preferably a 90's model if I can find one.

I don't see myself needing more than 3 but who knows? Of course, that's part from maybe something cheap and temporary to trash at the odd gig

[doctor_of_the_bass]

Allo!

Sold one of my Alembics recently so the collection went down to 56 basses and 14 guitars - however, in order to cure the depression caused by the sale, went out and bought a very tasty Squier Classic Vibe `50's Precision and my old pink Jaydee GA24 (sold to a mate some years ago).

Merry Christmas!!

Nick (pantoing!)

[thedontcarebear]

Sandberg California JJ4
Conklin GT5

[quote name='Sarah5string' post='352023' date='Dec 11 2008, 06:36 PM']Shine SB55 5 string
Dean metalman 2a 4 string

Dean edge pro 5 on order.....[/quote]

- Dean Metalman
+ Dean Edge Pro 5



Now I want an acoustic

[tauzero]

2 basses, 21.24%
3 basses, 20.80%
4 basses, 14.16%

So logically 9 basses = 56.2%, so I'm in the majority. I shall see if Mrs Zero is convinced.

[JimBobTTD]

I have - to my astonishment - five.

Ibanez PJ
Fender Jazz Bass Special
Ibanez SRX500
Ibanez SR 5-string (still in the UK)
Burny Mockingbird

The Burny is on its way out. I restored it from firewood to a playable, good bass, but I can't get on with the shape. I can't seem to sell it locally, either. I only get idiot offers or timewasters.

It all happened rather slowly. I had the Ibanez PJ as my only bass for 15 years or more. I got a Fender Jazz Bass Special to replace it, as the Ibby was too valuable to me. But then I realised that the Fender - it is in 9.8/10 condition - was too nice to take out and ding. I got the SRX, which is now my main bass. The 5-string is my first 5er and is an experiment. The Burny was a project which, as stated, was fun up until the project was completed.

No plans for any new basses for a long while, especially now that the band doesn't seem to be forming. Ho hum.

[wombatboter]

Just sold a Ken Smith this week so still have 15...

[BigRedX]

That's a nice collection of basses!

Is that the Bas Extravaganza Punk Rock Bass at the front?

And what's the yellow one just behind it?

Wow, someone who knows this "Punk Bass" ! It is indeed the Xtravaganza punk bass which I bought from someone in Rotterdam.
The yellow-one is a custom made hybrid Jazz bass with cheese holes in it and made by a local repairman in Belgium..

[mrcrow]

i once had two
but since then only one unless when changing over and buying before selling

[Dubs]

I’ve got 3. A five string Harley Benton in standard, 4 string Ibanez in drop D and a 4 string unbranded custom thing that’s half a step down. I chop and change throughout a gig.

[tauzero]

14 years, eh? And I only had 9 basses back then. More than double that now.

[BigRedX]

I'm down from about 40 to just 5, and expect that to go down to 4 when I get around to selling the Squier Bass VI and Burns Barracuda and replace them with another Eastwood Hooky.

There's a red one been on facebook for quite a while now, down to £780, dont know if it's sold and an old advert or not. It's in Liverpool.

I'd considered picking it up on a recent trip to Scotland and selling my Fac51 but never got around to messaging.
