the official "Show your basses" thread part 13!

[jurberg]

I've had some changes this year. I sold the Geddy Lee I've been using as my main bass for five years and bought a Reverend Rumblefish 5L to replace it. My current backup is 93 Peavey Fury. I'm now all American made.

Here are my two.

I cant get enough of the split fingerboard and that crazy dragon inlay! I hope to see more of your work in the Luthier's Corner soon.

Yeah, ImageShack FTW. When you get to the image display page, right click your picture and select "Copy Link Address" or "Copy Image URL" or whatever, and post that between your IMG /IMG tags.

I LOVE this bass!! The active EMG's allow me to dial in exactly the tone I want, from a thumpy 'dead' tone (my usual) to a bright growly modern jazz tone. I use flatwound D'Addario Chromes with a piece of foam under the strings near the bridge, and I usually have the bridge pickup volume almost all the way down.

The Harmony is a pretty awesome vintage bass tube amp that can be had for a great price since they're not very collectible or anything. I recently replaced the speaker with an EV with a much larger magnet, and now it's unbelievably LOUD and punchy!

Okay, let's try this again for the FOURTH time!!

Hey thanks, Man!

Ummm, don't know if you noticed, but there's a, ahem, a rat crawling around on your bass! You might want to check those pics more closely before you post them. JK, I used to have a little white mouse named Star. Rodents can be pretty cool and cute, too!

I used to own that same Artcore. Same color and everything. I loved it! I'm still trying to figure out why I sold it.

I'm really confused by this bass...

 

[Evil Undead]

I'm really confused by this bass...

Why?

 

[J. Crawford]

It's the old standard Squier 5 string. Sadly they aren't made any longer, though I've been craving one for years.

 

[Hnz]

I'm showing my new Godin Shifter bass, just because I think it's awesome!

It says P-Bass on the headstock
It has a P-Bass body
It has J-Bass pickups
