How Many Basses Do You Own (Part 2)

[NickBass81]

Currently I own 4 basses:
-Fender Jazz bass american standard, 5 strings, passive
-Yamaha TRB 1005 , 5 strings, active
-Tune WB6, fretless, 6 strings, electro-acoustic with Piezo
-Dean (don't know the model...), 5 strings, fretless, active

Love all of them, but my GAS soon or later will make me buy something else (and I'm not a guy with a lot of money, believe me...)..what a terrible disease...

I have 9 total. No reason. I just think they're cool. Especially the older ones. My friends and bandmates think it's ridiculous, but whatever. People blow their money on way worse. One is on the way but it doesn't count until I've played it. Here's most of them. I also have a mid 60's Framus Star-Bass and a Danelectro Hodad that I haven't yet photographed.

This was my first bass and what I learned on. '79 Ric in Autumn-Glo. I paid $330 for it off a college buddy. Signed by Mike Watt and went through a house fire before I bought it (see headstock). Signature was faded so I had Watt sign it again after seeing a gig he played in Orlando. That was 11 years ago. Now both signatures are gone.

This thing is a mutt. I need help ID'ing this - Gibson SB350 or SB400? Slab SG style body. Nothing on it is original.

I always wanted an old Dano. I guess a single cutaway like this is rare. Usually they have a Silvertone branded "dolphin" headstock. This one has a Danelectro branded "coke bottle" headstock. This was made by Dan Armstrong when Ampeg had the rights to the Danelectro name, so I'm guessing this is a '69 or '70.

I bought this about a year ago. I like the finish - "Commie Red." Sometimes I'll gig this out. I've got flatwounds on it and it sounds great.

1980 US-made Bullet Bass Deluxe. It hangs on my wall.

2007 Aerodyne Jazz Bass. This is now my main bass. The guy who sold it to me on ebay said it's a Japanese non-import model hence the finish. Most of the time these are all black with a cream colored binding. It does look very cool and it sounds great.

And... this one's my favorite. This was my main bass until I got the infinitely more reliable Fender above. This thing is f'd. Intonation is so out of whack I had to stop using it. I really pissed off my bandmates when I brought it in for a recording. Still I love it. Fun bass to noodle around with and throw around the house.
