What basses are on your wishlist?

[Sam Dingle]

2 custom 5 string basses. One fretted with a maple neck and one fretless with ebony. Other than that both identical and with 24 frets.

I need a decent acoustic bass. I played a Breedlove Pursuit a while back and quite liked it.

A P-bass with a Jazz neck.

I’m going to NAMM this week and I’ll be checking out some Dingwall’s, Sadowsky and G&Ls. I’ll also be seeing what’s new from Warwick.

I’ve been wanting a Dingwall for a couple of years now, but I need to move something I have and love to do it.

Very tasty @Spidey2112. They had a sweet, lightweight P in that exact model at my local for the longest time that just killed, but I wasn't able to bring it home. Those Custom shop 60's P pickups don't get near enough love around here as far as I'm concerned. Definitely on the wish list....

I’ve been wanting to order up one in a 32” medium scale for a few years now. Probably never happen but I soooooo want......

 

[bigswifty1]

I never thought it would happen but I've turned into Musicman Fanboy (sigh, I know, I know). I would love to get a Bongo, or even more so a Big Al.

Im eyeing the wine red Jack Casady Ephiphone almost daily and its getting harder to resist.

Also wanted a Fender Jazz sunburst since I was like 12y old.

But just recently started playing and I feel like I have to deserve getting new gear by getting better at playing first even tho I have some money put aside for them.

So just wanted to tell you that honestly you should have confidence in your bass and your gear. If you feel good about your tone and trust your gear then it allows you to develop as a musician a lot faster. So if you want a sun bursted jazz GO FOR IT!!!! WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES! I should know, I had to develop a tone from a 60$ korean bass with a bad fret and super high, stiff action. After years and some learning how to tinker with guitars I was able to make it playable enough to where I even impressed some real pros with my playing and the tones coming from that cheapo bass most people would pass off. I got to jam on the guy's vintage Steinburger headless bass that costs about as much as 10 of mine. But point being, if you have a chance to get the fender jazz you love, GET IT and see what you sound like! You'll be amazed!!!!!!

Right now:
Takamine TB10.
And
Something with Nordstrand Big Blades in it.

 

[hardtop]

1. MIJ Steve Harris, preferably first gen, but second would be fine.
2. G&L SB-1
3. Gibson Ripper
4. Gibson RD Standard
5. Dunable Jeff Matz Signature
6. Although I generally don't like short scales, and couldn't use it in my band, I really love the Mike Watt Signature bass from Reverend.

Top of my wish list would be very much along these lines... not that I’m looking, honest. If it said Sandberg on the headstock that would be fine too...

LOVE this color. I would pick up w/ a maple neck for sure for all of my Prince songs!!!

My wish list is empty. Such a great feeling!

 

[Nunovsky]

I have two lists, one is a realistic GAS list with the basses I'm planning to buy and another one with my dream basses.

On my realistic list are:

• Epi Thunderbird Vintage Pro Sunburst (I'll probably get one as soon as Thomann has them available again)
• Fender Mustang JMJ (yes, I'm another guy hooked on this one...)
• A 5 stg PJ bass (probably a Yamaha BB735, but I wouldn't mind aiming for a P35...)

On my dream list are:

• Mayones Jabba Hadrien Feraud sgn (I love this bass...)
• Fender Pino Palladino
• Rickenbaker 4003

 

[schietschijfje]

Maruszczyk Jake

 

[bobba66]

Short scale Precision with Jazz neck. Passive p/j. Trans white, maple neck with dots.

 

[SpanishDave]

Dream list basses might be something like, a Epiphone/Gibson Ripper, a Warwick Corvette, Musicman Bongo, Ibanez SRCR800. then the daddy of all of them would be.................
This, Prometeus Berserker

 

[jazzyvee]

Something that is permanently on my wish list is a new series I or II Alembic Stanley Clarke style Short Scale bass like this one. I hope one day my funds allow me to get a custom!
