What are some basses you'd love to hear or see certain player play? for example:
Geddy-MM Sting Ray
Stanley Clarke-MTD 535
Marcus Miller-Bongo
Victor Wooten-anything with 5 or 6 strings
Rohnda Smith(Prince)-Ritter Roya fretless 5
AND.......?

Other than that, I'd like to see me playing a Jerzy Drozd Prodigy 6, but that's a different story.
Why, exactly, are you asking this? Maybe I just think Marcus would look silly slappin' a Bongo. |

It's just wishful thinking. Personaly, Geddy doesnt HAVE to play jazz basses,he's a great player, how would he sound with something a little more high-end?,would you be shocked? I used to see Louis Johnson with all kinds of basses, yet he sounded the same on most of his records which were great.

JT - Jaco's bass of doom (that would settle a few arguments)
Peter Duncan - a Sadowsky and a Fender - oh wait

IIRC, Vic played some 5 and 6 made by his luthier and friend, Joe Compito.

Something completely uncharacteristic of him. And I second Mark Latimour's suggestion for Jaco with JT's double neck. And whoever said Steve Harris with an ERB, also a neat idea.
