Let's see those UGLY basses!!!

This one may take the cake for me so far...

I guess I am also a sucker for ugly. Here are 2 of the most horrible looking basses I ever owned. Unique absolutely yes, pretty?, no.

Women don't like Danos...

My wife absolutely loves Danos. She would probably start playing bass if I could get her that very blueburst longhorn, which I also think is beautiful. If I could get it in Bianchi / seafoam green, I *know* she'd start playing bass.

I've also seen more than my share of indie-oriented bands with women playing Dano basses.
 
Well you wont want one of these!!! LOL!

Heavily relic'd hardware, never been cleaned, gigged with biweekly, thrown into the drum kit on a number of occasions...

Yeah, it's ugly, and I've tried to make it that way!

All ATK's are beautiful, I have one and wouldn't trade it for anything. They do see a lot of use though, that's for sure.
