My two. VERY soon to be three 
My 65 P is being refinished. Pictures to follow
On top ia my Warmoth Gecko. I owned this bass for 5 years.
I sold it on Ebay. On a whim, I contacted the guy that bought it and told him if he ever wants to get rid of it, I would buy it back.
He said yeah, he never plays it. Deal never happened.
He contacted me a year later and said lets do the deal. 2 weeks shy of 6 years after I sold it, it was back HOME!!! I added a set of Lakland/Hanson Chisonic soapbars. A month ago I had it setup by Carl Pedigo at Lakland. Its NEVER played better.
Bottom is an American Standard P bass. I got an incredible deal from the local Best Buy as they were closing their instrument department
Pictures with the custom leather straps I made.
I have one waiting for the 65 also.

My guitarists Gibson EB-3 (late 60's). Someone removed the varitone and replaced the bridge with a Badass. I'm borrowing it and considering buying it. Plays great and sounds great too (for an EB-3)

My two current . My Carvin B50 is my workhorse . It's light , has a small body , the best neck I've had and just sounds killer . Same neck , single coils and preamp as the Carvin SB5000 .
I just got the Squier VM Jazz 5 and I'm very impressed . Very good neck and sound and it's pretty .The Carvin is the meat and potatoes bass and the Squier brings the bling .
