The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

Being mainly a guitarist, I own a single bass. '64 Jazz CS Reissue. I'm in love. The Bassman is also a '64, they form a cool duo.

Man this is by far the best pic I have seen on a Fender bass and amp. I made a copy for my computer to look at - thanks for the great pic.
 
Are you a fender guy with guitars? I'm a strat man myself.

I'm a Fender guy regarding guitars (bass included) & amps. I had a P-Bass that I liked very much. Just prefer the offset look of the Jazz and pickups configuration. I also like a good Les Paul. Here's a few pictures of various photoshoots with my other amps. The Bassman in the outdoor picture is one I sold few months ago. Also a '64 but it was the first run of Blackface (being from August '64).

*I swear, this is the first and only time I'll post pictures of my 6-string on Talkbass! ;)

Sweet photos, sweet guitars. I'm especially digging that AVRI 59.

Take this picture and remove the Gibsons and the tweed amp - and center the Band Master and the Tele with the couch and I bet Fender would use this in some ads - GREAT PICTURE, your killing me tho!!!!!

Thanks Lenny! I'm sure I have the exact photo you are describing, took nearly 500 of those on that day.

I know this is a bass forum, but this picture should be in a Fender brochure. Or even better, print it out really big and use it as wall decoration.

You know what, yes I think I will print it and frame it for my music room!
 
Thank you! What kind of Strats do you have?

Here's my favorite guitar ever, the blue strat:

Specs are:
-CV60's neck and tuners.
-pure vintage tele string tree
-CV60's pickups, pickup covers and switch tips
-Korean lite ash strat neck plate and wiring harness.
-Fender creme knobs
-MIM body and trem setup (someone refinished it in nitro and I scooped it up in reverb.
-MIM football jack
-CV strap pegs


For me this guitar is a study in modification and setups. It was lightly relic'd when I bought the body but I've been slowly adding to it through a combination of real and artificial aging. Also, this thing is a tank, honestly indestructible.

For the sake of TB, I'll call this a piccolo Bass VI. :bag::D:thumbsup:
