Pete Academy Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 You find the lamp, rub it, the genie appears and grants one bass wish. A custom-built Alembic or Ritter for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 To have all the talent of Jaco or Marcus Miller. I'm not big fans of theirs but if you're going to have talent you may as well wish for as much as you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

risingson Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 F-Bass right now probably or a really great mid/late 70's Jazz. The F-Bass was the only boutique style bass I've ever played that made me want anything above say two grand. Played MTD's, Sadowsky's, Pensas, etc. but none of them do it for me apart from the F-Basses. Having said that... would probably take an Alleva too!

[/quote] Or maybe one with a knob that you can turn to change what type of bass you're playing, and maybe a knob or faders to change the colour/finish, one for the number/arrangement of strings and obviously a switchable active EQ too I just thought we were on about real basses that's all lolz.

Dave Vader Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I wish the genie could give me one stupidly valuable old fender bass, so that I could sell it to a mug to put in his safe, and buy a ton of old Jap copies to play with. Does that work Pete? Or right at the moment I really want an Ibby Blazer, with the P pup in it, blackguard, not asking for much.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJE Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Top spec Alleva Coppollo Jazz 5 string, but throw enough money at Jimi Coppollo to make a neck with the most unbelievable birdseye maple, with that really expensive rosewood (Dalbergia Negra? might as well go all out) fretboard with blocks and binding. Tasty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 One of the things I would like to do if I found myself with stupid amounts of disposable income to spend on musical instruments would be to have some of my favourite basses made in 5-string versions. So to start off: I'd like an Ovation Magnum 1, which is identical in every way to the original instrument except that it has 5 strings and a suitably wider neck and slightly modified headstock to accommodate the extra string.

Musicman20 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 A 60s Precision or Jazz, in immaculate condition, all original, with the original hardcase and paperwork. Sunburst/Tort/Rosewood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 OK, if we're talking real magic lamp fantasy stuff... I'd like a 5 string fretted bass that could be made fretless at the flick of a switch, with Delanos and an East eq [i]plus[/i] the innards from a Line6 Variax bass.
