If Basses were cars what would yours be?

[xXxTWO FACExXx]

I've been thinking alot about this lately your thoughts.

[somegeezer]

Ford Mustang? Hahaha! Kidding right?... Fender are the basis to what other basses are... They are the midpoint. I'd say more Ford Fiesta than Ford Mustang.

True changing now.

Mine would be a '71 MGB convertible roadster, a true sports car.

Mostly because... hey, that's what I drive.

I like old school vibe, in cars and basses. Who needs more than
4 strings anyway?

currently playing a squier bronco, tried it to see if i was a short scale kind of guy. turns out i really am. hmmmmm.....which car...it's small, handles well, looks good, light.... i'd go for an MG Midget (perhaps a bit biased as i'm in the process of buying one!)
(this isn't the one i'm looking at but it's close enough!)

I guess my surf green Jazz Bass = '57 Chevy in Belair green. The thing is, I'm really a Ford guy...

So, my Hot Rod Red Fender Jaguar = '65 Mustang convertable.

My Peavey Foundation Fretless with natural finish = '38 Ford Woody station wagon.

Still working on what my koa Carvins would be...

[Papazita]

USED.

Are we supossed to take the year into consideration? My 96' MIM Squier Jazz would probably be a 96 Honda Accord 4 door, not even an ex...lol. Not quite an Acura (Fender), but playing off the name sake of one country and being made in another. Honda is a Japanese company with some vehicles being made in America. Squier is an American company with some basses, atleast in that year, being made in Mexico.

Would my SX be a Hyundai? Would my MIC Squier be a Chevy Aveo?

Alright, I'm out.

[Emibass]

I have a white Seat Altea. My Jazz is white too!

My Spector Euro 5:




My Fretless/headless 5 I made for myself:





...................And my rig is something like this:

[J. Crawford]

My MIA? Seeing Im going for a dead, mellow sound, probably a Ford Pinto.

And my fretless? Probably a Ferrari, seeing they just dont seem to have many limits!

[Mr. Lovejoy]

What is an affordable workhorse car that people also find very attractive?

I suppose that would be the automotive equivalent of my J-Bass.

[Armbruster]

I think of my Lakland's as modern music-makers.

Lakland, modern?

Depends on the model I suppose.

[somegeezer]

I think a bass I'd want would be similar to a Range Rover. Great vehicle all round in any weather... I'd want a bass that would be great for anything. Ready to smash through a wall and come out the other side without a scratch.
