What do you call your BASS?

[GLLabelle]

Bass of Doom, pretty sure that name's never been used.

 

[PastorofMuppets]

I call my stingray Eddie since E is the first letter in the serial number

 

[pasta4lnch]

my main bass is a mia fender p/j - I call it the "pbj"

 

[TechJunky]

the 'wick (warwick corvette), the spector (spector rebop), the ray34 (sbmm ray34), and the black 5-string (olp mm3 stingray copy).

Yeah, I know, I'm unoriginal.

 

[rarbass]

Ibanez 4-string - My 4-string
Ibanez 5-string - My 5-string/my bass (being that it's my main)
Warwick Corvette - My fretless/My Warwick
Fender Squier (removed frets) - The Fender/The Crappy Fretless

lol I don't hate on Fenders/Squiers, just that the bass isn't all that great sounding.

 

[El Raro]

My bass.

 

[canadian_man_44]

Just got a fretless Fender Squier in three tone sunburst finish. I'm getting a Fender Squier 5 string in three tone sunburst finish. I haven't quite made up my mind on the names. What do you guys/girls think of Sunny and Cher?

What is it with dumbasses who feel compelled to leave snarky, sarcastic posts on threads to which they have NOTHING to contribute? For instance: "I call it my bass.....and my other bass....and so on..."
I'm surprised at the level of adolescent attitude that emerges sometimes on TB.

Anyway, my first bass had to be called "Hank" because it looked country to me and that's what I started with - country/blues. Flame maple top Ibanez GSR200.

Then my first build (Warmoth-based) has so much Wenge and Bloodwood (looks and sounds dark) that I named it "Malik," after Malcolm X. The red of the bloodwood made me think of his complexion; also the African origin of the woods helped. Further, I use it a lot now for jazz, which Malcolm X loved. The name is pretty much a natural for me.

My mother always told me if i had nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. Sometimes that is most difficult.

Apart from that, how about sonny and tubbs for the 3tb collection instead of sonny and cher?

Warwick Standard--Tegan

 

[jasonmasters]

my main axe is a custom Benavente 6 that i tune as a bass VI so everyone always refers to it as my "giant guitar" and over time it's morphed into being called the "bigfoot bass" since I recently got a fretless its just referred to as "the fretless"

 

[pasta4lnch]

My brothers first real guitar when he was a kid (and subsequently my first guitar) was a blue burst Dean flying Z and my mom would always threaten us if we were bad we'd find "blue toothpicks" all over the place - that name still stuck, though we don't use the guitar much anymore it's still around, and we still call it "blue toothpicks"

[Calaverasgrande]

My Ovation Magnum goes by the name Lydia.
My Sterling is called Nebula, as the blue dawn finish reminds me of a nebula floating in space.
My fretless SR5 I call hard to play. Actually I never quite came up with a name for her.
