Doesn't everyone have a main?
Their go to bass?
My 4003 is what I play when it's srs bzns time.
I have a few other basses I whammer on every now, but I like my Ric to the point where I don't want another bass.
It's the bass I want.

No flaming from me, I'd love one of these... my axe of choice at the moment is a Cort Gene Simmons Axe. It's uncomfortable to play, it's got neck dive galore, it GROWLS, it SNARLS, it looks cool and all the girls want to get their picture taken with it!!!
This one has made me gasless for a while.
Ah I'm always on the look-out for that vintage of Streamer, it's rare to see the wider dark laminates in the neck but also the two-piece bridge. Lovely bass!
My ideal one would have no dots on the front though.
I have several basses but this is my "go to." Any time, any place, any gig -- this baby ALWAYS gets the job done!

I would say if ONLY one bass, my Gibson LPB-3 5 string. It has active electronics a Warwick style bridge and a KILLER tone!!
This guy is my favorite, even though it's not perfect it's still exactly what I keep wanting and coming back to. The years I've spent with it seem to have been a period of "polishing out" the setup problems it came to me with to the point where now it is actually perfect or darn close. My band always requests this one for its tone and that's my biggest draw to it as well.
It's ugly and I couldn't sell it for more than $100 but this is the one I love reaching for most of the time. It'll handle just about every situation I've encountered.

The Jack Casady signature bass. It doesn't have the most versatile tone, but it's loud, it's deep, and I love the neck on the thing.
My 64 used to be my "go to" bass (and I still love it), but lately this ones been getting way more use....
Nice shirt lavmonga! Woo hoo Rockville Centre! I'm from Nassau as well.
My favorite bass it the only one I own - an ash Fender FSR lefty jazz. It's heavy as hell but sounds great.

This old used '94 MIM P-bass. Don't know what it is about it, but it's just soooo dang comfortable to play.

I have a Stingray, but my go to is my Dean Edgehammer. Tapered Neck, soapbar pick ups, its just SO comfy to play on!!!!!
Not like the treetrunk on the Ray, shame the ray sounds so much better though!

This is kind of funny! I went off searching for a picture of just my Hoppus P bass with Carvin SB400 neck, and all the pictures I could find are of the two of us together. There are quite a few pictures of the two of us together. Outdoors playing a party tent in the woods, to playing in church, to bar gigs and beyond. I guess that speaks volumes about who daddy's favorite is!
