In fact, here are all of my Fbasses.

Here's my latest Fbass BN5 with a wild Macassar ebony board.

I haven't updated my profile in awhile so I thought I would include a picture of my most recent Fbass acquisitions. In adddition to my sunburst ash/maple BN5 and now I also have a sunburst alder/rosewood VF5 and a white ash/maple VF5. It's hard to say which bass is my favorite - they all...

BIg 0 Was that green Studio 5 for sale at Cosmo Music earlier this summer? If so, I had my eye on it and then poof, it vanished. I called George to discuss another matter, and during that conversation, mentioned losing the chance at a Studio. Coincidently, he was holding that exact Studio...

Boys Boys Boys. I am amazed at how this thread has changed in just 24 hours. I was on it last night and it was calm and placid. When I log on tonight, there's 5 pages of arguing about virtually nothing. It reminded me of an argument I had when I was a kid about whose Dad could beat whose Dad...

My vote is to keep George as #00 as an honorary member of the club and as our "go to" reference point. To me it does look weird for the designer/builder to be #1 - like he started it to worship his work. I think Tom7 should be #1. He works very hard keeping this thread organized. I can tell...

I have a PH1000 in red croco finish. It is truly an awesome cabinet. I haul it up and down stairs on a 2 wheel dollie but even then I still need help to get it UP the stairs - one guy has to be on the bottom just to give it a little lift up each stair. Something about all of the speakers in 1...

My vote for Bass Junkie's VF4 in fiesta red was with the tortoise shell guard as well. Very unique.

Hey guys, I am thinking of buying a used Goliath 6x10. The carpet is a bit torn and one speaker is apparently blown (I haven't been out to try the amp out yet.) I was just wondering before I bother to check it out, what the word was on these 6x10s. I went through the threads and saw some...

Here's a shot of me playing my 75 Precision.

I now have both the 700RB2 and the 1001RB2 and I have a Mesa Powerhouse 1000 cab - so we have alot in common. I initially started with the 700RB2 driving the Mesa cab. Personally I agree that the 700 has better tone than the 1001 possibly because of that very growl that everyone is talking...

Hey Guys, I have read through about 25 pages of posts looking for a Powerhouse 1000 cabinet like mine, and I gave up. While there are some sweet looking Mesa Thunder Machines in this world, mine always gets comments when I wheel it into a gig. Take a look and let me know what you think...

Thanks for making me member #79. Let me tell you a little more about getting my bass. As you know I went to the factory and chose the guitar blank out of about 20 or so that George had made and were waiting for orders. I went with a highly grained ash body and a maple board, which is pretty...

I have a 2006 SR 1005 EGB prestige and the serial number starts with a C, not an F. My serial number has 8 numbers after the C - yours has 7. Mine is a neck through, not bolt on. It has the word "prestige" on a plate on the headstock which hides the truss rod adjuster. The way you read Ibanez...

V nice, Bassment! Congrats and when will it be in your hands? Been playing it for the last 5 hours. Teriffic feel and sound. Here's another quick shot of it in front of my rig.
