The P's and the others.

Really like the green p, I could tell it's your favorite.

Here's a bass family photo. I should have used my wife's Nikon camera instead of my iPhone.

My new old 1965 Precision. This is my only (!) bass right now - two other vintage Fenders had to leave in order to dig up the cash to buy this one:

nice - the fb wood is really pretty - maybe it's the way it's lit but it looks very honey-toned compared to the more usual darker rw seen on these years. Frets look good too. (score!)

Awesome basses in this thread. Once I get the ABG that was just ordered, I will take a pic of the whole family.

Here's my baby

Bought it 3 years ago. Since then I had a Maruszczyk, an Alembic, G&L Sb-1, G&L L2500 (I still have the G&Ls) in my arsenal, I played 70s Fenders, Foderas, Sadowsky, Sandbergs, all sorts of Japanese and other make basses and I believe this one is probably the most comfortable bass I have ever held in my hands.

The brand is definately worth checking out.

Fender jazz cij 1998, just as good as some newer fender american models tbf! & my battered ibanez BTB 200. 😊

left to right, fender mim zone, peavey foundation, ibanez blazer, schecter stiletto custom 4

Just wondering if the foundation is a fretless and American made, I have the exact same colour and just curious if its a triple match

1969 Gibson Les Paul Bass - weighs about 13 lbs, but sounds and plays incredibly.

I knew a guy back in the 70's that had the LP studio and it also weighed a ton!

Yeah, they're beasts! The weight throws a lot of people off, but tone-wise you can get everything from P bass thump to midrange-y active tones, it's wonderful.

Here is my new Performance YB 5 bass. Hand made by Yas Yakote . Build quality is off the charts. I've had them all.Sounds incredible with Sadowsky pre.

 

[auximines]

'57 Fender Classic Series P. Replaced the gold pickguard with black; swapped original vintage bridge for a Gotoh 201. Shimmed the neck a bit. Smooth, fat and plays like butter.

Ibanez SR406 in a Lakland case. Thinking of putting Black Beauties on her, but my wife says it might look funny. What say ye, TalkBass community?

Bently 5 String unlined fretless with Black Beauties. Not sure the model. Old Fender hardshell.

 

[PhillipCarr]

Another shot of the Bently in the Lakland case ('cause my wife says it's prettier), and the only four string I own

Here's 2 of my 3 basses (the third being a Squier Mustang Badtz Maru).

The white one is my main bass, a Blade B3 from early nineties, made in Japan.

The red one is a Tokai Hardpuncher ltd. ed. from early eighties, made in Japan.

Picture from a recent gig with my new TC combo

one of my favorite bass names! Is a Hardpuncher ltd another way of saying "pulling a punch?" (nice basses!)

Here's my ESP/LTD B-4Z, she is a beauty!!!
