''Can't'' is really a hard word. But the bass that I would love to have, but probably never will, is a Rickenbacker. Probably one like this: Invalid Link Removed 
Something in that area. I believe it's being sold by a jewelry company in Nevada or something like that.
Played this one yesterday.
Not a big fan of relics and I have 2 J's, but this is one nice bass!

TheAmericanBrit, why wouldn't you be able to get a Burns Bison bass? I managed to get a Burns Barracuda; I think Bisons are easier to find...

Yea, I wouldn't say "Can't"...but this is my next bass and i'm putting away $75-$100 weekly until I get close to being able to get this.
That bass sort of straddles the line between "can't" and "someday" for me. I think right now it's a "can't" though.
This one is firmly in the "can't" category:

oh my i can relate to that
Thats another bass Id love to have; a black beauty Les Paul bass. But the one I want is decked out with the triple buckers JUST like the guitar version. I mean all the electronics identical (take a black beauty les paul and slap a bass neck on it more or less) and those are hard to find.....
And speaking of Burns basses, I ran across a few last year googling basses. I do like them but if I were to have a Burns it would more then likely be the Scorpion:

There are very few basses that I "can't" have. Any new bass can be purchased - I just need to supply the money.
A friend of mine has a well-used Gibson Tobias Killer B 4 string. It feels & sounds perfect everytime I play it (I always offer to buy it on the spot!). I've played new Killer Bs, but none have that sound. It's his main & only bass, so that is off-limits, and something I 'can't' have.
