A bass you would never consider playing

[eloann]

There are many basses I wouldn't buy. However I happily try any other people's basses.

 

[drummer5359]

I'm pretty open minded, I'll rock just about anything except for "The Mothman", it just scares me.

 

[Killens84]

Any with 6 or more strings

Reminds me of that Fritzel guy. Both awful humans. Don't see where it says he was a bass player, though

 

[catcauphonic]

And I'll play anything. Just wouldn't purchase a headless. And if the stock don't match the body (or at least the board), that's a big turn off for me.

After thinking about it, there's an enormous difference in "what I would never pay to own" and "what I would never play".

EDIT: the prior is a much longer list of basses than the latter!

He played in some local bands...There's also pics of him playing double bass.

Daisy Bass....even then.....maybe......

 

[GIBrat51]

Basically...
- Any bass with more than 4 strings... or less than 4 strings;
- Any bass that's made for right handed players.

Other than that? Except for "active basses" (I have one, and that's enough, thank you) Sky's the limit!!

Anything in the thunderbird firebird camp. Doesn't look right on me.

 

[Marko 1]

Any bass that is shaped like a demon... Has any demonic markings or Gene Simmons "axe" bass... Solely because I play in a church band.... And want to keep the gig...

Lol... I forgot about that--
I'm not necessarily religious, nor do I play in a church, but I find all that crap kinda classless and childish and wouldn't play anything like that, either.

I was thinking Rick James for a second there, but okay... what does Ariel Castro have to do with playing bass?

 

[SanDiegoHarry]

There's "Playing", "gigging" and "owning" - all different criterion.

I'll pick up and "play" anything.
I'd gig just about anything so long as it played decently (depending on the gig, of course).

The one bass I've picked up at GC that I think is simply awful every time is the epiphone T-bird. Just awful instruments - that bass I would not gig nor own. But like I said - I've picked a few up... and promptly put them back down.

Why not? Was ARIEL CASTRO a bass player?

 

[Dominic D]

The one that immediately pops into my head is the Bongo bass.

 

[Kubicki Fan]

Kubiki, Stienburger and Ibanez Soundgears cant warm up to those pencil necks...

Whaaat?

 

[A. D. Fairhurst]

Every modern, pointy-shaped bass ever.

I'm done with the topic of this individual.

 

[Snibborwocky]

Probably anything with more than six strings...

Anything headless no other reason that I think there ugly as sin.
