this yammy has become like a brother to me,
fits me like a glove
I really love it, I can never sell it...
I can sell my MM SR4 if needed, but not this one

Never gettin' rid of my Kelly. Worked a lot to get it...and it's a piece of metal history (commissioned from the Jackson custom shop by Matt Thor from Rough Cutt and Jailhouse). It's literally a dream come true for me.
I'm holding on to this Warmoth parts bass I assembled. It sounds amazing, plays amazing, and I won't get squat if I try to sell it!
Not as unique as many posted here but I'd like to think I wouldn't sell this one as it is/has been my dream bass for several years now, I love everything about it and I'm not terribly fickle, usually hang on to things for a long time.
And this one I can't part with as it has sentimental value.. Back when I was poor and barely attending college but spending all my time (11pm to 4am daily) practicing with the band and partying I didn't have money for a much needed bass, but I wanted the perfect bass. My brother helped me with capital on loan to order this bass, even picking out the custom features. He wasn't musically inclined but loved hanging out with and listening to the band. While on order he was sent overseas (in Army National Guard) and was killed on the way there. Needless to say this bass stays with me and has been my main bass since 2003, plays so smooth...
and one bass I would love to get back would be the bass I learned on. I borrowed a Guild JetStar (not knowing what it was) from a friends dad for about 2 years, looks like this with a dark green/black finish:

I would kill for those Guilds.
Another Bass I will always keep is this mut. It's a Fernandes MIJ Body with a Chandler lined ebony fretless neck and Nordstrand NJ4SE pickups.
This bass has a Killer Jaco tone.

What is that drywall-like material on your bass?
the only pic I got for my Geddy
there are other basses I wouldn't sell, but won't name it without a pic.
Ordered it new back in 78, never leaving my hands
Quickly became my #1 passive bass
This bass in amazing !
Has that clean single coil sound, sounds like a strat or horn with effects- Only one in the world like it.

WOW. Ive always been a fender guy all the way, but if i ever had the chance to get my hands on that, i would make an exception.
My 1977 Fender Precision, shes actually almost to the day 10 years older than me, and I call her my true love.. I will never sell her.
My first (and only) custom bass, This bass is kinda "mine" so I will never sell her. Shes a Listerud Explorer bass.

As you can see from the two I posted above it, I would definitely consider myself a fender guy as well, but this was just too great a bass to pass up.
I picked this up really recently... It's one of those times where a bass just spoke to someone... and believe me, this was NO rash decision... she just aint your everyday PBass
And this one I picked up a few years ago used at a local store... it's just too damn unique to give up. sounds so freakin' raw.
I'll never sell these or my first bass, a Squier PJ (that just feels like a glove)... now there's others that I'm trying to find good homes but that's not for this thread
