Badass black basses!

2015 USA Fender Jazz, Geddy Lee... I love me some Geddy Lee, way more than I do Sara Lee.

I've got two and I think I'm good for now.
My Most recent bass, a Carlo by Carl Pedigo. A rather unusual beast with a 35" scale, 1.75 nut and Birdseye maple blocks. All of that on top of Lakland'ish shapes and electronics.

My first bass, a '96 MIM fender. The only original parts are the body, neck and neck plate.

I think my Knuckle Quake 5 fretless is the most badass black bass I own (the BC Rich Warlock is a close 2nd, don't have pics of that though). Thanks, Skip!

39.5" scale. I've tuned it both "normal" BEADG as well as ultra low EADGC (starting at the E below that B, at 20.6 hz, more felt than heard).

ENVY!!!
