Updated my previous vote. Now part of the 5-9 club. Just added a new EBMM StringRay Special 5 H (2018 vintage). Charging Green with the roasted maple neck. Noticed the new 2021 StingRay Specials are now specified with a "Select Hardwood" body. No longer Ash. Glad I could find one of these before they are extinct. This was a Guitar Center Guitar-a-Thon special at $500 off (and before the $200 price increase for the 2021 basses).

- Dingwall Super P 5 strings (strung with flats :D, but black pickguard ;))
- Dingwall NG3 6 strings (should place my hands on it within the next week)
- Fender Elite Jazz Bass 5 strings (possibly the best jb I have ever played)
- Fender Precision classic '50 (extremely modded, let's say i did the "Billy thing", with not that good results)
- Fender Standard Jazz Bass fretless (very old MIM, i think it's a MY 2000 or 2001)
- Warwick Thumb BO 5 strings (have you ever heard Ryan playing Dig?:whistle:)
- Warwick Corvette $$ 6 strings fretless (challenging instrument, the upper register intonation is really hard to me, but i keep trying :thumbsup:)
- Ibanez SR 1300 custom made (my first bass ever :bassist:)
 
Since this post I’ve added a Cort C4 Plus and an Ibanez BTB7 to the crew, that’s probably
All I need for basses for a while. Now to get some Darkglass into my amp choices...

Ok so I may NOT have been satisfied with my basses. So now I have added a Cort C5 Plus, an Ibanez SR305EB, a Dean Edge 6 and just to prove that I’m not a complete devotee to cheap stuff, a Dingwall NG3 6. I also got the Darkglass stuff but that’s neither here nor there to this thread haha.
