5 basses I want right now

[Tom Doran]

Just watched too many YouTube videos of people saying that 63 precisions are something special.

I’ve played two ‘63s. They were unlike any other P basses. Yes, exceptional!

All I want is one of these and I'll never buy another guitar again...................

I'm satisfied with what I have, but these are 3 basses I wouldn't mind owning right now or in the near future (minor GAS cases):

- USA Spector in J/J configuration
- Fodera Yin Yang with Spalted Maple top
- I've been itching for a Jazz bass so a US Sadowsky (satin finish).

One that doesn't exist but I wish did:

- Ibanez Musician reissue (lightweight, slightly downsized, NOT $10,000 like the limited edition a few years ago)

One I've had on my wish list forever and never got for some reason (but still occasionally GAS for):

- Ibanez SR Prestige (just wish it had black or chrome hardware instead of gold)

I have a Modified Tele. bass bought it 013 from fender. Took it out of the box tuned it up, played it for a while. It has been in the case under the bed since 013. ( the thin plastic factory covering is still on the pick guard and the front p/u. It has never had a strap on it. Its nicer that mint, I call it N.O.S. ( new old stock). Time to thin the heard............. Bob

Me? I have one of the five I want: a Basslab STD-VI 35” scale, but the others:

They’re all Basslab:
1. STD-VI, 35” scale, 29 frets, headless trem
2. STD-VI, 35” scale, full body fretless, a headless optical pickup that’s actually good (I like the Lightwave, but it’s not headless
3. Basslab/NS Design (they did collaborate before) 6-string EUB
Okay, the fourth one isn’t:
4. Carvin LB76 w/Kahler trem

I honestly don’t want any other basses. I’m relatively close to the end, save for that stupid trem (yes, I do use it), of my GAS.

Status Chris Wolstenhome
Status Stealth - NOT headless
Ken Smith Tiger Elite
Dingwall NG-3 Forest Green
Warwick Custom Shop Robert Trujillo Signature Bass - the metallic chrome blue bass.

If it’s fantasy shopping I’ll have Mattison five string, a Fodera fine string, a Factor four string, a Momose five string and that Ritter thing with the Marvel print.

To the OP:
Wait a minute! Are you...
SANTA???

 

[Solarmist]

Am I the only one here happy with what I have? Maybe I'm just old.
I've got an Ibby Premium w/Nordys setup in BEAD, + 4 others, and I'm good with that.

Those Nordy Big Singles make all the difference.

Warwick thumb 5 string. Wal mk2 5string, Ken Smith BSR 5. Carl Thompson 5 string. Then it's a toss up between a Ric 4003 and a fretless of some kind. A wal fretless would probably edge out the Ric. Now I just need about 50k to buy all these.
