SHOW US YOUR CHURCH BASSES!!!

[elwood]

There's a whole thread on it here, elwood:

Ever see a bass so ugly that you couldn't stop looking at it?

Ha, 4 pages- that'll keep me busy for a while. Thanks Keef!

go to recorded services
and there are vids of me either playing my main bass the Spector 5 string
and on special occasions like Easter the Fender

Actually, Valenti #15 is not quilted - it has a very nice flame maple top. I bought the bass from Poon a year ago, and I have the privilege of praising God quite often with it at church.

Take care,
Jay

Jay,

Took me a little to figure out what I was talking about. I got ptidwell's and your Valenti mixed up. #15 is indeed very, very nice. Great looks and features!!

I don't have pics, but I play 74 jazz, p-bass w/65 neck. Homemade p/j and a 5/w mod j style bubinga body and wenge neck& fretboard for a Warwick type sound.

They all know their place in the mix well!

Heck, since we're talking church basses and unfortunately I had to let the GS5 go a while back, this is my new church bass:

Doesn't get a whole lot more church than this:

This is the bass I'd choose when the ol' coven gets together at the local standing stone to invoke the great horned god.

He don't need no stinkin' house

Incredible bass. Even if I hated how it played, I'd play that thing all the time!

 

[Chaddycakes]

Here are my usual culprits. There's also a fretless F and a vintage styled P.

Now THAT'S a cutaway! What type of bass is that on the right?

 

[Chaddycakes]

Used this and my Elrick NJS 5 on the last church gig...

I'm going to have to say that that is the absolutely most beautiful top I've ever seen.

Its a Bee Bass.

Mike,

That's a beautiful bass - and an even more beautiful story behind it.

God keep you,

Here's my Millennium V. I have a Millennium four with a hipshot too, but I haven't photographed it yet. This bass has bone rattling B and gets a great slap tone too.

You guys have some sweet basses!!
I play in church for 90% of my gigs.

Here are my basses:
Peavey TL-Six, Warwick Fortress 5, Spector Q6, Aria Pro II SB-1000,
and Elrick Classic 6 Hybrid

I mostly play the Warwick; just got the Elrick and will be playing that a lot as well.
