Not pictured: Charvel Model B2 in blue sparkle (killer player, killer tone), mid-'90s cream Squier P-bass body with vintage Kramer Striker 700ST neck.

Many of my basses were stock when I got them, and now aren't. I just can't leave well enough alone. :D

What year is that Iceman?

Was watching tonight's world series game 7.
So in between the action, I went through and compiled pics I have of the basses ( And one Guitar) in my current line up.
Got it down to these basses and one G&L ASAT telecaster 6 stringer.

Here is an up to date current "Family Portrait" as of 10-29-2011
Disclaimer **Always subject to change due to bad on going G.A.S. :D

** oh yeah, missing in the pic is a 1997 BC Rich Bich 6 string with
Dimarzio Petrucci pups. Crunch Lab in the bridge and Liquifire in the neck position.
Never shot a pic of her.

If you don't mind me asking how much did that collection cost you?

Honestly, I have no real idea - too many years' worth of keeping track. Yeah, there's a lot of toys to play with but many of them were pawn shop/eBay/Guitar Center/Jacksonville Guitar bargains and/or projects I pieced together or bought back to life. Only a few were bought new - the Traben Havoc, BC Rich Warlock Revenge and Ibanez SR305 for example. The Spectors were easily the priciest ones though.

It's a newer one - 2000's model. It too was a a project I brought back to life. Pots and wiring were hammered, the frets were green and the fingercheese on the fretboard was worthy of its own toxic waste dump. For less than 200 bones and some (ok a lot) of elbow grease and the Iceman roared.

I had an Iceman that looked just like that...I think they said it was a 2001....It played awesome and had a great feel and tone...I picked it up used at GC for $275....
Very clean shape too...
I traded it in for something or another like a bonehead...Think I got that full $275 from a rival mom and pop store on trade.
I WISH, I kept it for that amount....IceMan is a very cool 80's looking body style... Oh well, another one that got away :rollno:
