Alternative Gear Club

[Basssssist]

I have made this club for people to share their unique/uncommon basses, so if you come here with something you would see everyday, you will not recieve a number. If you are unsure whether your bass is eligible, post it anyway. It's worth a try.

I am posting this from school, so I will have to upload my basses later.

Hopefully this club will become popular in no time

How about a number for the least functional bass on TalkBass:

Mine aren't quite as unique as ronaldpdbrandt's cigar box basses, but I will post them anyway:

Gibson Thunderbird Non-Reverse:

Fender Jaguar Bass (Ignore the other two, they are fine examples of basses that won't get you a number - However, if you have a Precision Bass with a unique finish, feel free to post it):

Kick Ass'd Bass, my own creation for busking and acoustic gigs

This is the third I have made and only need a couple of bits to begin making #4.

Nice, what model of bass is that? You can be number 5, by the way.

My basses my not be as alternative as the ones posted, but I think they are quite unique in their own way.

 

[ffutterman]

I guess my custom Adam Stone bass could count for this as well. That thing is my baby. I've never been homesick, but I do miss that bass when I'm on a trip (or sometimes even when I'm at work).

Basssssist, you may want to keep a master list of numbers you've given out, because you just gave this guy his second number!
