You don't want much do you Nash :huh: Yeah the grabbers are nice. I think we should 'acquire' John's from The Keep :)

Ok here's mine :

Basses
Spector Euro 5lx in natural
Spector NS5XL in Buckeye Burl
Spector NS4 in black and blue

Amps
Mesa Boogie 400+, Fender 300Pro, Markbass SD800, Bassman 135, Aguilar DB750

Cabs
NV610, NV215/Mesa 410 x 2

I think that would cure me....temporarily! I need to have a go on your Sunn as well Nash :huh:

I always get a kick out of doing this - it's a real hoot to see how long the list can get without much effort!

I won't do a full list, but mine would be a few 50s Fender, a lot of 60s Fenders, a few 70s Fenders, a large amount of Sadowskys, and a few customs to cover 6 string, fretless and other more exotic items.

Like a said in the other GAS thread, I have around 100 bokmarked sites for luthiers/instrument manufacturers whos instruments I would be intersted in owning. Multiply this by the fact that some have more than one bass that takes my fancy, and subtract the few that I'd find I just couldn't get on with when I actually got to play them, that's a serious amount of basses that I'd like to have...

Good grief, OK then. If I didn't have a conscience and had loads of money and room to spare, then this is what I'd be diving for:

Alembic Series 2 (5 string with standard point body and 5A maple facings in black cherry 'burst)
AGC Custom 5 (fretted and fretless)
Carl Thompson Scroll Bass
Fodera Beez Elite 5 (quilted redwood facings)
Jaydee Calibas 5 (fretted and fretless)
Jaydee Supernatural Classic (if I could ever find one of the originals)
Ken Smith BMT bass (pretty much every single example I could get my hands on)
Michael Spalt custom 5 (fretted and fretless)
Modulus Quantum TBX 6 'Andy West' (fretted and fretless)
Musicman Cutlass II
Musicman Cutlass (without the I on the headstock)
Pedulla Hexabuzz
Pedulla Pentabuzz (in greenburst)
Rainsong Graphite Acoustic bass guitar
Sandberg Basic 5 (fretted and fretless)
Shuker headless 5 (fretted and fretless)
Status Stealth 6 headless custom (fretted and fretless with redwood tops)
'79 Steinberger L2 prototype (or 1980 early serial #)
Steinberger XL2 Transtrem
'83 Strata bass (one without a banana shaped neck)
Spector NS-5XL (fretted and fretless)

Preamps:
Alembic F-1X
Eden WT1000 Navigator preamp
Custom preamp/mixer/Alembic power supply + Stereo rack mounted valve compressor

+ Peavey DEC1400 or BK Electronics Mxf 1200D 1u Class D power amp

Amps:
Burman Pro4000 (whatever I could lay my hands on, in good nick)
Eden WT1205
Fender Bassman
Gallien Krueger 2001RB
Mesa Boogie 400+ (again)
Trace Elliot V8
Trace Elliot Hexavalve
Walter Woods Ultra

Cabs:
Aguilar 4x10" x2 (for the Mesa Boogie and Walter Woods)
Fender Bassman 4x12" and 2x15"
Schroeder 4x12 neo x2
Trace Elliot V type 4x12 to match the V8
Burman 4x12 to match the Burman heads

I reckon it could probably take me a lifetime and a half to accrue that lot!

Overall CK, excellent taste! Very close to my ultimate gas list except I'd go with the fretted option everytime. Love to try the alembic pre out with a suitable power amp. Very fond of the bassman circuit as well.
