Fiesta Red refin - 1960 Stack Knob Jazz

and the '60 was at another buddy's guitar shop that I got to tool around with for about 20 minutes...nicest playing bass EVER...probably because it was so broken in...sold for around $12k I believe

Bass Mint?

I love ovations, was so so so tempted to get a black fretless with grey leaf patterns around the sound hole...but was £400 more than I had at the time and have never seen it since.

Zebrano wood is a tad spiffing.

Both excellent basses, and together they cover a lot of tonal options.

...and for the third... I have a hard time to decide, whether it should be:
- my fretless black '88 'Ray
- the Fender 64' Jazz NOS in olympic white I GAS for
- a MM Sabre I'm currently watching on eBay

... I go with what I have....
