How many basses do you own? (Currently) Part 2

[Prodigus Filius]

I wanted to keep it at 2 max. But TB is to Gas as baked beans are to gas. So I've hit 5. All long scale bar 1

One for each month of the year...I guess I should make a calendar.

Went from 8 to 10 with recent purchases of a Sire D5 and an Ibanez TMB100

Ok so now starts the little kid who can’t wait for Christmas to open his gift

I just changed my vote to the 21+
20 electric basses and 1 double bass.
My Cherry Sunburst 1983 Roadstar ii RB924 put me over the edge.

I had one electric and one double bass when I joined TB 19 years ago or so. So the cost of hanging out here seems to be, from where I’m standing, about one bass per year.

I can confirm this. Joined in 2020 with just the Longhorn...

- Player Jazz with rounds
- Player Precision w/ rounds but I see flats in its future
Yamaha TRBX605 5 string with rounds.

They cover a lot of ground. Pondering a short scale hollow or maybe a Fender 6 for something very different as a 4th

That’s a versatile collection. You could truly stop there. But… I wouldn’t place a bet that you do…

Variety is the spice life !
I'd never have a second bass of same type; would always compare them and sell the worst sounding one.
I guess I wouldn't bet either...

You're missing out of the beauty of having 2 Precisions, one with flats and one with rounds, simple and astounding.

I literally have doubles of some vintage Ibanez six strings….

Been there already. But could not stand the Squier sounding so much better, than sold a 89 MIJ.
Dano is the best of the bunch with flats though.

Just started again after years of hiatus(and selling all my basses), I've set a contract with myself to keep one(1) and only one(1) bass. So far so good, I've even resisted purchasing while my bass was in the repair shop, renting one instead while repairs are being done.
