Bass Poker! Show us your hand!

I'm thinking a flush will win here. 5 of the same color.
Now, the only thing I think could tale it would be a straight flush.... 5 basses of the same color made in consecutive years. That would be a TRIP. Now, if they are the same brand and model, I think we have to call that a Royal Flush.

You win .. I only have a pair of basses.
Sorry Warwick brother, I've got you beat
Don't really play poker, but I DO play bass(es)...
Changed photo, I'd used the wrong one.

I don't have a photo of them all together, or even of them all separately, and I'm not a poker player and don't know anything about how it's scored, but my Ampegs would probably make a decent hand:
1963 Ampeg by Burns of London Vista Sonic Bass
1964 Ampeg by Burns of London Jazz Split Sound guitar
1966 Ampeg AUB-1
1968 Ampeg Baby Bass
1970 Dan Armstrong/Ampeg "See Through" lucite bass
Mid-1970s Ampeg Little Stud bass

What are the rules to this game?
Best hand is 5 identical basses...that is the only thing that seems obvious (manufacturer, string number, color, shape, pickup, wood, year, and pickups with consecutive serial numbers)

You Warwick guys don't mess around, do ya?
Maybe a royal flush with 5 Foderas monarchs, viceroys, emperors, etc.
Wait a minute! Don't you need a Buzzard or Infinity or something for the royal flush?
Wait till the guy that has 17 blue jazz basses shows up...
I don't know the last time I saw a Warwick bass. Maybe when a former bandmate had one. I went to an open mic at a local music store. They have a used one hanging on the wall and at the OM a guy comes in with one and played jazz tunes on one with a looper. They are stalking me!
