Show us your 'NEW' babies

Not sure if this thread has been done before, but I thought I'd start one for everyone with a brand new bass.
I know most people are so excited they have to show everyone, so maybe a good thread for anyone that has just got a new (new to them, can be used) bass in the last say...month

So just to start off, here is my new Black Tiger Elite 5 with 7 piece body & neck

Really nice 5 string.
here is my Rockinbetter 4003, had it a couple of months now, so to me its still new! have fitted the vintage/modern tone switch and fitted a Ric bridge pickup cover, the Ric one is more rounded that the one that came with the bass. i also fitted a Ric thumb rest.

I would kill for one of those Rockenbetters. New Rics are way too pricey for a bedroom bassist. I wisk I could find one, and have the money at the same time...what a dreamer I am

Got a couple of new babies in the last month. Most recently a Spector USA Woodstock NS2 Special Edition limited run (number 10 of 14) Walunt Burl Bass...


And a couple of weeks before that I ran across a deal I couldn't pass up on a very rare Alembic Dragon Wing Cocobolo top bass...


And somewhere inbetween the two purchases I stumbled across a mint condition Korean Reissue Dano Longhorn short scale bass I couldn't resist...

Hand made custom bass. Solid curly maple
maple body and neck through lamanated
maple neck with redheart fingerboard. I paid
the builder $90 and it came with with $120
case,



It had serious problems. I ended up having to
defrett and added an extra volume, as well
as other fixes. Non of which cost any money.









Problems solved and I have a wonderful bass,

Tabdog

This will save me from hogging glory with my own personal "NBD" thread.

Today is NBD for me. A very "special" Christmas indeed.
