OutToPlayJazz Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 So, come on... It's not only what you're GAS-ing for, but what do you think is the uber-cool must have bass of the moment? For me, it's the Fiesta Red Roadworn Jazz. I don't like the idea of new relics, but there's just something about these... Quote
Musicman20 Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 USA Fender Precision 62 Reissue - white....POSSIBLY sunburst. USA Fender Jazz 75 Reissue - I want it in a colour other than natural, even though I quite like natural! Next year....I'm going to try and get them. Quote
Les Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 I really fancy a Status, headless and with LEDs, it's the LED's that are doing it for me. Quote
Clarky Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) Money no object, I would like a vintage 60s/early 70s Fender P in 3TS/tort/rosewood .... or a Fender Pino Palladino (which coincidentally is Fiesta Red and roadworn) :wub: [attachment=35077:pino.jpg] Edited October 24, 2009 by Clarky Quote

tony_m Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) As of today, an Oly White '75 Jazz RI.

I'm pretty much GAS free after this weeks spending, but I'd love a Jetglo Ric, Shuker JJB or battered 60's P bass (like the one I've been whining on to FunkMunky to sell me for the last couple of months!).

retroman Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 In no particular order........ Fender '75 reissue Jazz Rickenbacker 4004LK Warwick Buzzard Warwick Starfire semi Lakland Decade Don't think I will ever be lucky enough to own the 4004LK though.......I think there was only 60 of them ever built, and is probably the only bass I would trade my 4001 for Quote

It's my number 1 bass and it feels like I have played it all my life despite only owning it for a couple of months. It is so easy and natural to play. I love it. As for GAS, well a Warwick Streamer in maple with a bolt on neck. Something like a Jazzman. No idea if I will like them and probably hate it but just got GAS for one. Quote
steve-soar Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 This one at the moment, sounds brutal. Quote
Lylodile Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 This but with the SLO Special neck option . Quote
obbm Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 I quite fancy a Status S2 5-string with side LEDs or perhaps a Streamline 5. I'm keeping an eye out but there is nothing around at the moment. Also would like to try a Sandberg PM5. It might just be what I need. Quote

I keep coming back to them. Lovely to play and they sound amazing. The perfect mix of classic and modern. Quote
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I'm really into my CIJ mustang bass - vintage white with aged pearl pickguard, but I'd love to have one exactly like it but in california blue or an original 1966 one in daphne blue. Quote
Doddy Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I think that the cool basses at the moment are Singlecuts. They seem to be what a lot of the hot players are using lately. Quote

One of these: Ian has just built another new prototype bass like this; he finished it yesterday and I gigged it last nite - it was incredible - imagine a cross between an Alembic, a GB, Status and Wal - tons of bottom end but with a clear transparent top end and enough mids to lay down a really heavyweight yet articulate tone; this could well be it as a new working bass for me! We've already picked out some woods for my custom build but I might have the prototype as well, its that good! (ps I am no longer an official partner in E Basses, this is not an advert!). 2. Vigier Arpege Delta Metal fretless - if all goes well I'm getting one next week. Best fretless I've played. 3. cd david's (Dave Anderson's) 6 string Overwater - no one else buy this otherwise I will make you eat ya shoe. 4. Wal Custom - really miss my old Wals! 5. StingRay V - be nice to have one! Thats it! Nick Quote

Very Graham Gouldman that one. Sonic blue justs suits the Jazz bass so well, espec. with the matching head face. Add it to me list....! Nick Quote
The Burpster Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Sorry but I have all of mine....... Quote

CHRISDABASS Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) Im always thinking about a new Sadowsky! but you knew i was gonna say that right??? Whats really getting my going at the moment is one of these fancy Wood&Tronics basses [attachment=35088:ErgonWholetop1200.jpg] [attachment=35089:ErgonWholeback1200.jpg] So, so nice to look at!! i'd love to try one! Edited October 25, 2009 by CHRISDABASS Quote
JimBobTTD Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 This is the bass of the moment for me right now: I acquired it in early August. I already had an Ibanez 5er, and I assumed that this would be better as it is a higher model. I was right. I have changed strings, polished the frets, changed pickups to EMGs, put in an EMG preamp and now everything is about as good as can be. If I had magical powers, I'd change the routes so the EMGs fit perfectly and make the 3 band EQ on 3 knobs. Ah, happy days! Quote
