Basses you have a bad hankering for...

I don't have the one you're seeking, but I do have a 1980 SB-R60, which is similar, and I love it. In fact, this is one of the few basses I own that will never be for sale as long as I'm still living. Good luck with your search.

Oh Man. Did Fender have to go do this.

 

[Jack Deth]

Would love one of these...

[EDIT: they are strung B E A]

 

[hypercarrots]

been looking for an azureglo rickenbacker 4001 for years.

For two or three years I've had my eyes on a Ibby BTB.
Dec last year I jumped.

There's a good sized number of basses I have a bad hankering for, but I suppose the one that truly qualifies for "White Whale" status ...or wait, maybe I mean "Holy Grail" status? Something that rhymes with "shale" ...would be a Curbow XT-33 6-string:

(Not necessarily fretless, that was just the first pic I could find)

A 5’er Muckelroy!!

Just listened to Paramore last week and immediately fell in love with Jeremy Davis’ bass tone. I’ve been obsessed with Gibson Grabber G3’s ever since!

P.S. If anyone is thinking of letting one go, hit me up!

I'd like a Gibson RD bass....someday......

Make that day soon, if you can... you won't regret it.
I made the plunge and brought a '78 Artist.
A bit weighty, nothing you won't handle with a good strap. But oh, that tone!!!
Just make sure you're not buying on a whim, the RD Artist is a wee bit pricey for that.

View attachment 4128341 The Fender FSR ‘58 All Roasted P Bass...just salivating at the chance to do something stupid when this pops up for sale again..

... this is the one that gave me the inspiration to have this made for me.

 

[lomo]

I want it.

After the covid wave(s) recede, you're welcome to come play it in the city of sugar pie and smoked meat

 

[bassist4dalord]

Fender Player Jazz V. Mmmm...

 

[405BassGuy]

Beautiful!!!!!

Thank you!

 

[Bob_Ross]

I really wanted one of these back in the day. Alphonso Johnson played the fretless version

What is that? Can't read the ad copy, something about "El Matador"?

 

[zon5string]

Dingwall NG3
Ken Smith BSR5
Pedulla MVP 5

 

[obieito]

This.
Or the original.
Or even the Squier CV version.

Need to hide some bass from significant other before, though
