I have a '74 Jazz Bass, and a 'round '80's Jazzbass replica (Aria or Cimar, I think), which is defretted, and currently at the luthiers' for epoxy-coating and setup... -Love those J-basses!!! They're suitable for ANYTHING !!!

 

[Dan Knowlton]

It would be the TWINS - my fretted and fretless Ken Lawrence Brase 5's. I did just pick up a Lakland 55-94 Deluxe but I would give that one up in a heartbeat to keep the Brases.

grr, I hope this situation never occurs, however I wouldn't really mind now cuz most of my equip. now isn't top of the line. My first would be a handmade Conklin 8 string, that'd probably cover it there but I'd also take a Series ll Doubleneck Alembic (check it out [Invalid or Expired Link Removed])
just so I can brag cuz I'd never be able to afford it

 

[Benbass]

1. MTD 535.
2. Fodera Emperor.

I'm half way there!!! Already have #1! Close third would be one of those D. Huff zero basses - The scroll work is incredible!!

 

[Fran Diaz]

- My '94 StingRay
- My Lakland 4-94

keep groooovin'

[The Metroman]

Two Surine's a fretted 4 and a fretless 4. I'm half way there.

I'd rather have a Carl Thompson than any of the basses anyone listed. They are quite possibly the best basses in the world.

I'm sure that there are a few people who disagree with you.

The best bass in the world is useless in the hands of the world's worst bassist.

No, I'm not implying that it's you.

 

[DarkMazda]

My Salas Custom 4 and a Zon Legacy 4 Special!

I have a 1979 Ibanez Studio bass ( I must be the only one). It seems like a fine bass so far.
An ideal second bass would be simple: a Surf Green Fender P-Bass with a rosewood fretboard and a gold anodized (spelled right?) pickguard. Custom shop, vintage or off the rack, it wouldn't matter, I just dig playin' rock 'n' roll.

 

[oldirtymoney]

warwick streamer stage 2 (5 string), fodera yin yang bass (4 string)

 

[drewie]

Here are mine:

Musicman StingRay5
Maple neck,fretted
Black body
Abalone pickguard


Musicman StingRay5
Pau ferro neck, fretless lined
White body
White pearloid pickguard

Job done!

 

[masaru]

My StingRay 4 and StingRay 5 are all I need. My Jazz, Ric and Hamer sit in the corner waiting patiently but they haven't seen the stage in quite sime time...

 

[P. Aaron]

I WANT one of those Explorer Alembic basses that John Entwhistle had. Totally decadent inlays and fret markers. they're just so cool. And a off the rack Surf Green P-Bass with rosewood finger board, and glod annodized pickguard.

My needs are few.

 

[nightshifter]

Hope this never happens !

tricky, but anyway:
1. my new Grosh Retro J4 which Don will hopefully finish next month
2. Ken Smith BSR-GN Elite 5 in Morado

..and still lovin' my MM30 Stingray!

 

[GreyBeard]

My MM SR5 and the Lakland 5502 that is on its way. (maybe?)

 

[jsbassist]

Ibanez!!!!
