This thread makes me feel better about the fact that I am a total Fender junkie! Here are my four, I have a deluxe P in black w/ rosewood and gold pickguard on the way though so that will make 5. I really dig black Fender's if you haven't noticed!

'09 5-string Precision. My main bass.
There are jaw-dropping basses of many different colors in this thread, but there's just something about sunburst/tort/rosewood..

I could not agree more! That said, I want to pick up a Candy Cola 5er and turn it into a Blackhawks tribute bass, complete with home sweater striping and the Indian head logo. But that's just me...

My current main bass, a 95 P Lyte with Duncan Quarter Pounders.

Bought a 76 Precision new when I was 16, and the body and neckplate is what's left of it. Original neck was maple, this one's an 83. Pickups are Fender 62 Reissue P and Dimarzio Ultrajazz.

Now a couple I don't have anymore, one of which I shouldn't have sold:

Stock 79 Precision. Loved the look, didn't love the pickup. But the wiring was totally unmolested, and I couldn't bring myself to be the first to taint it, so it had to go.

Stock 98 MIA Jazz, ugly but right up there with the best basses I have ever played in my life. Would still have it, but it was pretty heavy and tore my shoulder up but good. Wish I could have kept it, but I'd have had to retire if I used it any longer.
 
Here are my beauties...together...I do have a Warwick...

Hey Jimmy, when you get back, is that '98 Jazz Inca Silver? Looks really nice. Shame you had to get rid of it, but having gone through two major shoulder surgeries myself, I can understand why you did...
