I've noticed quite a lot of these, and they're very clever, indeed(occasionally.) I shall begin.

"Does the finish match the headstock?"

The lame bumpersticker "Bass Players Do It Deeper" is the only one that comes to mind.

"Musicians duet better"

I have one that I used to say a lot, "all I do on stage is finger Charlotte (my bass) for a couple hours"

"Nobody likes a dirty G-string"

"Have I ever shown you my Boner or Virgin bass?"

Boner (re: the Fender model with the abnormally long upper horn)
Virgin (re: the BC Rich model)

I'm sure there are other models to add to this list.

"My instrument is bigger, and goes deeper." Dunno, I'll keep working on it.

I like to get down low, and slap it. Stroke it until it just feels right.

Not that some of these aren't clever, but innuendos are meant to be subtle. You're kind of revealing them for the world to see. Depreciates them IMO.

The difference between a guitar and a bass is that the bass has a longer shaft so it can go down really low.

Re: 5-string basses:

"Instruments with an odd number of strings are much harder to play than those with an even number."
