Count me in. As of earlier this week I now qualify.

2008 Ricenbacker 4003
MusicMan Classic Stingray 5
MusicMan 25th Anniversary HH
Ibanez SR506
2010 Fender American Standard Jazz Bass Fretless

I love them all for vastly different reasons. Personal favorite would probably have to be the anniversary MM. It's just so versatile and comfortable.

#2 - Carvin B5 fretless, blank ebony plank on satin finish maple neck, gloss black alder body, Bill Lawrence J-45 neck p/u, Carvin "MM" style bridge 'bucker - the fretless
#3 - Benavente SCB 7-string - the temperamental beauty queen

#5 - Carvin LB75, koa body, maple/koa neckthrough, DiMarzio (?) J pickups - former #1 but relegated to spare status, due to neck dive

So what's my number?

 

[Squirefan01]

Here's my current lineup...

- '99 Alembic Essence 4-string (with Europa style electronics)
- '01 Lakland USA Jerry Scheff Signature Fretless 4-string (1-of-a-kind)
- Ibanez SR905 5-string (thin neck!!)
- Epiphone El Capitan ABG (Acoustic/Electric) 4-string
- "Frankenstein" passive P-Bass (started as 80's Japanese Seiwa Rockman Series, but everything has been replaced except body & neck)

Great variation in sound and purpose across this collection!!
