Pick Your Ideal 3 Bass Arsenal

#321
1.) My Birdsong Cortofusion (31" scale, walnut body, Lace Humbucker at the neck, fretted)
2.) My fretless Birdsong Cortocustom (Cortofusion body shape, 2-pickup Cortobass pickups, no Tone knob, walnut/ebony/purpleheart body)
3.) Up in the Air - a Birdsong Cortobass with a "hot" Lace humbucker at the bridge - Cortofusion body shape, possibly mahogany or cherry body) OR an Alembic (possibly 8-string) - I've never played an Alembic, so I'm not sure I want to go there.

Fender Pbass (Luckily I already have this one...so it`s a start.)
Fender Custom Shop 6 string, P style body, P/J pups unmarked fretless
An Upright Bass

I`m pretty sure that would do me for a good long time. Unfortunately I can`t afford the other two now or any time soon, so my lil ol` Pbass, and Squire J bass (fretless) will have to do it until I`m a rich man.

The first is for that warm classic style

The second for Basic metal and for that fierce look

This one is my fave, and the only one that I will most likely be buying sometime soon, I have a btb200 and love the sound, look and feel of those basses, and now they have better everything and look even better than before.

1) Nash Jazz Bass, Lollars w/stacked knobs, light relic, Sonic Blue w/
matching headstock, rosewood board, tort guard.

2) Fenderbird, Tbird chrome humbuckers, mahogany body, P Bass neck
w/maple board.
I am building one of these. I have everything but the neck. I'm
undecided between seafoam green or antique white. Either way it will
have a tort guard.

3) Lakland Decade, Olympic white, tort guard, rosewood board.
I used to own a 68 Guild Starfire which I stupidly sold. The Darkstars
are calling and I love the way it looks. Very unique.

- P-bass with flats
- J-bass five string active
- Fretless five string

I am there :)

Fender P-Bass AV 62 RI
Atelier Z M265
Warwick Corvette fretless five

Nothing missing. Only thinking about trying the Sadowsky MS5, how it will stack up against the Atelier, but thats about it.
If you had four options I would add Musicman.

EBMM Bongo 4 String (Candy Apple Red) w/ EBMM Hybrid Slinky Strings
'76 Gibson Ripper (Natural) w/ EBMM Regular Slinky Strings
