19 this month, may turn into 12 next month or 23...who knows :)

I only use a couple of them at gigs, the rest are for collectible purposes and jamming at home.
 
I'm currently at 7:
'66 Fender Jazz Bass
'98 Celinder J Update 4
'01 Blade B2 Tetra w/ Aguilar OBP-1
'98 Fender Deluxe Jazz Bass V (made passive)
'82 Squier JV Precision Bass
'02 Fender Standard Jazzbass fretless [modded]
'01 Yamaha BB N5II

I actually only need 3: The vintage Fender, the 5-string Fender and the fretless Fender. All other basses are extras.
 
today, 2 - fender marcus miller 4 and kingston heir 5.
soon, 3, with the addition of a Lakland 4402
After that, back down to 1 (the 4402) when I sell the marcus miller and the kingston
And in a few weeks back to my regular number, 2 - the 4402 and my Tony Franklin fretless on order
(not counting my upright)
