Pick Your Ideal 3 Bass Arsenal

[BrowneCustom]

3 ideal basses for me:

Lakland Darryl Jones 4-stringer, LPB (Got it!)

Gibson SG Standard Bass (Got an ancient and broken Kay copy, so the real deal would be nice...)

Lightwave Saber VL5 Fretless

Reckon that would cover just about anything...

Ric
Jag
Tbird

 

[JimB52]

A Jazz (Old Fender or Lakland JO)
A Stingray
Something else.

I always forget that I love Precisions.

 

[RickenBoogie]

I own the 3 basses I want the most, Ric 4003, Ric 4004Cii, and a Fender Am Dlx Precision. Sure, I'd like more, but these 3 have me totally covered.

T-Bird
Ric 4003
Jag

 

[kcole4001]

Hmmm...
Rick 5 string
Bongo 5 string
Jazz 5 string

Simple pleasures, and should cover any tone needed.

 

[Dan Knowlton]

Ken Lawrence Brase 5 - great feel/tones, very balanced tone

Alleva Coppolo LG-5 - PERFECT 1960's jazz bass clone - in a 5 string!

Alleva Coppolo KPB-5 - PERFECT P-bass clone - in a 5 string!



Wow! I've got all those !

[J0ttem]

Music Man Bongo 4HH - general bass

Duesenberg Starplayer Bass - Semi-Hollow, with Flatwounds for softer songs and styles

Wal Mach 1 (Fretless) - general fretless bass

 

[tb420]

1974 (neck profile) Red Rick 4001
70's Black and Maple Fender P
White + Tort EBMM Stingray with Status Graphite neck

Bah I forgot a Gibson.

Ok heres my other choice

need to get:
Pedula 5 string fretless

[lowendfriend]

1. Warwick pre-1998 Thumb NT fretted 5 string

2. Rob Allen Deep 5 (yeah, I want the lines)

[Bluesbob]

The three I need:

These have covered all the basses (RIM SHOT!)... so far.
