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

[R&B]

My current collection:

Fender Custom Shop P (With jazz neck) in Sonic Blue
Sadowsky RV5-PJ in Olympic White
Fender Custom Shop '63 Jazz in Aged Olympic White
Fender American '57 Vintage Re-Issue in Translucent Olympic White

What a nice set of basses. I am considering the idea of reforming my promiscuous ways and getting down to a few truly great basses. Then again...it's fun to grab a different bass every time.

BTW the '57 AVRI translucent finish is called White Blonde, which some call Mary Kay. I have one. Great bass, though due to the delicate nitro finish, it mainly lives in its case.

And...pics or no bass.

I'm surprised I'm in the majority with the amount I have. I thought 8 was a "********" number of basses to have. Seems I'm in good company!! I've slimmed down from 10 so that's a good thing!!

When I responded to this poll I had eight.

I sold one, bought one, traded another for an amp and gave one away. I currently own six, and it is unlikely to change. (for now...)

1972 Fender Telecaster bass

1972 Tele Star (Teisco) kid sized bass

1995 EBMM Stingray

2005 Schecter C-4 XXX

2011 Fender American 60th Anniversary Precision (In sunburst finish)

2011 Fender American 60th Anniversary Precision (In blonde finish)



I still own between five and nine basses, so by the rules of this poll, nothing has changed, I still fall into the most common group.

[RxFunk]

Here are some of the "10" I have. All hand picked in one way or another.

You need a tort guard on that burst jazz, so it can match the P

 

[Fluid Power]

Had nine, sold and traded 5, bought 4 more so now 8. That still makes me on the high side of NORMAL!!! I feel better knowing I'm OK! Last one was a Peavey Patriot with warped neck, ordered a Mighty Mite Jazz and am thinking to put on the head stock "PEFE"
HA! Glad I'm good but still crazy!
