I voted 4 because that's all that's in one piece and playable. I have two others in pieces including a vintage Kramer XL-24 that needs a cracking neck joint fixed

 

[Philbo]

3 basses

2001 Johnson Pbass copy (horrible)
1970s? Memphis Pbass copy (refurbished)
1986 Guild Pilot (awesome bass)

I'm hoping for a nice 4 string fretless to come my way in the future, but I'm content with what I have right now.

 

[Herman]

Just one - G&L L-2000 natural finish w/ rosewood fret board

 

[embellisher]

That Nordstrand is stunning!

Nice family aswell!

Thanks!

I have 4 currently, and collecting them has become quite the obsession. But, my wallet tells me otherwise.

 

[snake]

Maybe not the best basses in the world, but I picked them and enjoy playing them. All but one lefthanded.

1970 Teisco FB-1 Viola shaped
1988 Washburn (headless) Bantam
Schecter Scorpion
Yamaha 5 String
Jat Turser Beatle bass

Each one unique.
