Hi Jason,
I built the Dakota Red one out of 19th century Golden Pine from a UK warehouse demolition, neck is aftermarket, all the hardware is 68-71 Telecaster Bass. The Daphne Blue bass is a 68 Telecaster Bass that I refinished and re-contoured a couple of years back. It had been refinished when I bought it, and was a bit heavy for my liking so now it's 8.25 lbs is super comfortable to play sitting or standing and sounds great. The P Bass is a 77 with 66 pickups and lollipops from another 68 P Bass with an aluminum guard.

Now at 9...

'69 Fender P (recent replacement for the rather lacklustre MIA P).
Squier CV '54 P
Ibanez PJ, modded.
Harley Benton MB4, modded.
G&L jazz, modded.
Harley Benton beatbass.
Hofner Shorty, modded.
Rick-O 4003S in fireglo.
Acoustic bass of unknown origin.

The G&L is the only one I'm not especially fond of and may one day replace.
