Warwick Corvette 5 (for sale)
Washburn XB-100 (first bass, defretted, too crappy to sell)

2) Squire P bass (on loan to my nephew)

Will soon get a SX P/J to hot rod

 

[bholder]

Glad you put that last choice in there, haven't taken an accurate head count in a long time, the herd's probably close to 50, more if I include the ones in various states of disassembly / construction.

4.... basses.

78 fender P
ESP J-5
warmoth/usacg mutt J bass
benavente SC-D

Two massively awesome pieces of absolute radness machinery bass goodness;

1) Crappy old Cort C4

Possibly the coolest and best collection you have ever seen or will ever see.........EVER!!!!

I did a bit of eBaying lately (moved a Jazz 60th MIA and a SR as they were too nice to play as well as an old Charvel)

Now I am down to the following:

EBMM Bongo 5
EBMM SUB 4
Fender Geddy Lee Jazz
Ibanez 5 String
SX Fretless

 

[rockstarbassist]

1x Flea 5 (2003)

Too many :scowl: .

I have 10 now, but I can't really justify it, as I only play in a "hobby band".

Funny, the more basses I own, the more guilty I feel about the lack of time spend actually learning music theory and developing technique .

It's nearly time for a cull!

Maybe I should sell some of these and then I could actually afford to buy some furniture for my apartment !

 

[CTbass&birdsong]

alot of GAS..35+ ..read the profile,,,I currently have 7+ in production. .talk about GAS !!!!

Maybe the last selection should be too "pompous to count".
It's embarrassing but #35 came last week (Skjold 4) and #36 (Valenti) is somewhere between here and Cleveland on a big brown jet.

Oh yeah, it's not really embarrassing at all!

 

[Dr Funk]

Furniture... we don't need no stinkin' furniture.

Throw a slipcover over some cases!

I'll trade my sofa for your Wal!

4, although I got one on a trade and really don't need it, so it's up for sale. The present herd:

'89 Fender Urge
'98 Fender American Deluxe Jazz (fretless, Thor epoxied neck)
'05 Fender Geddy Lee, received on trade
'06 Warwick Thumb Bolt On "Dirty Blonde" #299 - the last 4 string one they made; #300-500 were 5 string models

Really, with the Urge, the fretless, and the 'Wick, I can cover an awful lot of ground.
