Basses that command authority on stage

As alluded to earlier, stating "commanding authority" may not have been the best choice of verbage for the OP's intent but it sure "spiked" a few "commanding" emotions from TB members.

So I hope, in my presumption of intent by the OP, this pair of basses, on club gigs, rarely makes it out of the cases before someone has a question or I hear a sharp intake of breath. Big gigs are a different story as sound check has no audience, one of the basses hits the stage from the green room, and once there, with IEM's, FOH volume, etc, I can't hear the punters in the audience. However I can see them staring at them ;)

However this paring seems to attract more of the "Hott Chicks" by a wide margin:
