I decided to experiment with some lights today. Nothing permanent yet, just seeing how it would look
They are pointed backwards to light up whatever is behind it.

Cool...that's actually the bass my ex bought me back in 2003 that got me back into playing after a 9 year hiatus.

You do realize of course, that, you may have just started a new mania. This backlighting concept could catch on I think.

Its not permanent. I'm planning to find some way to reduce the amount of wiring. The stuff doesn't get in the way of playing though

 

[JPATA]

Thanks! My mind is beginning to race with ideas myself on how to go abput developing on your awesome idea. Hmmmmmmm haha seriously, very cool

Here's my current collection, all Schecters. From left to right: '01 model Robert DeLeo sig Model T, '10 model Omen Extreme 4 and '12 model Diamond J. I swapped the necks on the DeLeo and Diamond J basses. The maple fretboard was originally on the DeLeo and the rosewood was on the Diamond J. I like both basses better this way.

I just got a new shechter raiden elite 4, looks alot like the middle one, i love it

 

[TheBamaSlamma]

Here's 2 of my 4.

On the left is a bass that has been lovingly referred to as "The Most Powerful Bass In The World" by former band mates. Jazz neck on a Precision body. Not sure of the dates of either, but I've owned this bass since '86. Badass bridge. Basslines Quarter Pound pickup. Hipshot D-Tuner.

On the right is a Sterling by Musicman Ray 34. Fully stock. Just got it a couple of weeks ago, and I'm digging it. Still getting accustomed to the neck since I'm used to a Jazz neck.

 

[TheBamaSlamma]

... and here's 3 and 4.

On the left is one I put together quite a few years ago from a Stewart Macdonald Jazz neck and Precision body. EMG pickup. Gotoh bridge. Hipshot D-Tuner.

On the right is a Dean Edge 5-string that I won from a Bass Player magazine about 10 years ago. Fully stock, including EMG HZ pickups and 2-band EQ. I was surprised at how well this bass plays, looks, and sounds.
