I voted for The Thunderbird. I played one yesterday and it sounds amazing. I only have one bass,so the decision is already made for me.

I really only play one of my five......so not a problem for me! I bring two but they are intentionally indentical fretless J basses. I'm gonna sell the rest to make them completely match by getting another Moses Graphite neck for the backup bass.

The Tbird cuts through the mix great, and it's the opposite of everything I've read about the non-pro...you can dial in some bright mids & highs.

the Fernandes is my guilty pleasure, and I paid $180 for it. My band had to do a couple of studio recordings recently, and that's the one I used...also cuts through the mix great. The Fortress One is my least played for some reason.
