What bass do you want next?

[jpark369]

any lakland, but within my price range, not dreaming...
im deciding between a MIM fender 60's jazz (not RI, the cheap ones), or a highway 1 MIA jazz. decisions, decisions....
any suggestions.??

 

[Coeball]

Danelectro 63 reissue sooo gooood.

 

[gonzorob]

Epiphone Jack Casady. Gold or Black, it doesn't matter.

I think I have to build the next bass that I want.

What I want to do is get a Warmoth Jazz body and stuff it with a MM pickup in the sweet spot, then a P-pickup right against it, and one more MM pickup against the P-pickup in the neck position. I would find a used Geddy Lee neck and slap on a D-tuner. I would want to wire up the MM pickips to split the coils and stacked tone / volume knobs for all 3 pickups. This would give me the option of having that MM sound, Jazz tone, P tone, PJ sound and so on and so forth.

I would want to wire the 2 MM pickups into one rotary switch so that I could run the MM pickups like this......

1: bridge MM full on
2: neck MM full on
3: both MM's full on
4: both outer MM coils on
4: both inner MM coils on

I could also mix in the P-pickup with any combination via the volume knob.

So a total of 4 control knobs on the face of the bass and one jack. I think it would be a very versatile bass with tons of tone options and all of that pickup surface would almost be like a full body ramp.

Something ballsy with 4 strings.

Looking at:
Rickenbacker 4003
Gibson Thunderbird
Lakland Hollowbody with Dark Stars
Lakland Decade
MIA P Deluxe

I've had a facination with the zon sonus 4/2 lately. Totally not the kind of bass I usually go for but I wants one anyway.

 

[bassie12]

I want a Fender Marcus Miller Jazz V next. But first, I have to finish paying for my 1959 P-Bass

It's gonna be while.....

 

[Pilgrim]

I can feel the GAS building for an Epi Jack Casady, probably in black because I am refinishing an Aria Hi-Flyer copy in Gibson Gold Top.

If/when I get one, I might just HAVE TO put a white pearloid pickguard on it.

 

[ctbass]

Can't decide; Stingray 5 or 55-02...........or both???

 

[Lucas G]

honestly, seriously... i am good for a while. i was on a bit of a bass buying spree this year, and loaded up good. i honestly can't think of a sound i would need that the 9 basses i have could not provide, and i seem to go for the bongo 90% of the time, anyway.

so, nine basses coupled with the fact that i just got engaged, i am set for a minute.

amps, however? you never know.

 

[landry.bass]

I either want one of these

or one of these, though I like the Lakland more
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

or if I can really get my money together, I want a Valenti...

...As I was sayin'.

 

[steve21]

Bongo 6, Valenti 5, or Lakland 55-02 are the only basses that I really want right now.

And I need/can afford none of the above, so...

My Dream bass is simple....

I recently got to try out a Fender P V. I'm now very sad. It's what I've been looking for in a bass for a while. Being a 5 string player, P basses are not easy to come by. I am very happy to see that they did a string through on it.

I am trying to figure out what I am going to sell to get it.

If I sell my bass head, the bass isn't all that worth it is it

Maybe I can mow the neighbors yard or sell a kidney.

When I saw the thread title in the list I knew exactly what it would be and that's it exactly - a new Fender Precision 5 in sunburst.

We just bought a new house and are putting a lot of money into typical new house things, but once that slows down (or I find a great deal on a used in the the For Sale forum) this will be my next purchase.

[wnelson]

for my band i want an ibanez btb 575...(gorgous,and ibanez did a great job putting this one together)
for my personal use...i want a custom 6 string bee bass built to my specs....can i borrow $3700??...anyone? im good for it

 

[capnsandwich]

I'm looking at getting one of these next, a Callowhill (J)unk 5'er, but with a pearloid PG.

 

[SteveC]

electric upright bass of some kind.

 

[edubb]

Lakland Daryl Jones 5 in white. Seriously considering selling my beloved Tobias Growler 5 and SWR working man 10 to help pay for it.

 

[COOL AND DEADLY]

Wow! love them all. I'm with Woodchuck, I've been G.A.S.ing for a Sadowsky five string jazz bass. I saw one with flamed maple top that is really nice.
