What's on your G.A.S list and why?

[Lunatique]

Cirrently on my G.A.S list:

Strandberg Boden - Love the headless design, dual sitting position body, and light weight.

Kiesel Vader 30" scale - Headless and short scale sounds like a match made in heaven.

Torzal (any model) - Fascinated by the ergonomic twisted neck/body design.

NS Design Radius CR (or) WAV (or) Ibanez Affirma - Want a fretted bass with piezo pickup.

Rob Allen Mouse - Want a short-scale fretless.

Fender Aerodyne - Light weight, fast neck, good-looking, PJ.

(You can look at my profile for currently own and previously owned basses for context.)

What about you?

 

[LkS]

Just a Fender Jazz Bass in sunburst with rosewood fretboard. Since I don't wanna buy new, it's not that easy in EU.

 

[Valsmere]

For me a Nash JB in black just because I want one

 

[Frodolicious]

I want a 5 string passive bass with a high C string to work on chords for fun! Possibly a jazz, or might end up going with a stingray route or G&L option if I want to do active.

 

[marqueemoon]

G&L/CLF L-1000 reissue. Love the combo of old school headstock, 6 bolt neck joint and control plate. From what I understand a lot lighter than the originals too.

that was what I noticed when I got my G&L Fullerton standard it is very light compared to my Fender. Very comfortable guitar.

G&L does the JB-5. It's a 5 string passive jazz bass that you can string however you want
JB-5

Another L2000 or maybe an SB-2T.
Why?
Isn't it obvious?

 

[Pizza1988]

GK Legacy 212 Combo (800w 2x12)

I am trying to downsize, but it costs more than my larger rig

 

[bench]

a nice USA made Peavey Fury would be nice... ...but as i live in Germany they are hard to come by or the shipping plus tax doubles the price... so if anyone of you is coming here and wants to bring one...

 

[KohanMike]

Any 21" to 24" scale bass, or guitar that I can convert to a bass (though I bought a 25" last week that's still fits me).

 

[herndonbassist]

List:
Roscoe SKB Signature Headless 6 String
Roscoe SKB Signature Headless 5 String

Why? Because why not?

 

[Jebberz]

White bass with red pearloid pickguard (probably a Warmoth medium or short scale, or a withe T-Bird that I will change the pickguard)- that would highly match the colos scheme of my current band - not sure which bass though, as I want to put flats on one of my bass to broaden my tonal palette.

Also, maybe an EUB

 

[Misfit Wookiee]

A fretless at some point. Not urgent right now, as I've bought a pseudo-P and a pseudo-J over the last 6 months (the P about a week or so ago). My main GAS is for a combo for practicing.

 

[Thumb n Fingers]

I'm good for a bit now (for a change). This past year has lent to a lot of turnover of axes, rigs, and pedals - inbound and outbound.

I'm actually now looking for a comfortable strap for the 6 string bass I just picked up. Ordered a 4" wide Gruv Gear SoloStrap Neo last night and hoping that solves my issues. I have some nice leather straps, but they are all stiff and, with this new bass, they are causing the inside edge to cut into my neck and collar area. I tried my KLIQ AirCell, which I love with my Jazz basses, but even that wasn't working. I have an ancient thin, soft, faux leather strap that's getting me by until the new one arrives. Fingers crossed.

 

[TheReceder]

Simple. Not boutique. Probably something I wouldn't like when I play it... but I fell in love with it when I was a kid. I still have the brochure from the store that told me they weren't made anymore.

[CallMeAl]

I’m simple (and cheap)

Squier Jazz- to replace my PJ for backup (main is a P bass)
Rumble 500 combo- to replace my Rumble 2x100 combo rig.

It’s pretty practical stuff, but technically GAS since in don’t need it.

 

[DAVEYC]

Only 2 things on my GAS list.
The new Squier classic vibe Mustang, in Olympic white and the classic vibe Jaguar in sunburst.
Will get either one or other but not both, leaning towards the Mustang, I can't wait

I saw Natalie “playing” one of those on a Facts Of Life rerun the other morning. They are cool.

 

[blacktocomm]

I’m currently well stocked in basses so there is nothing I gas for in terms of tone. I basically want all these just because they’re so cool...
