Whats your next Bass ?

[saltydude]

I'm good for now but I've had my eyes on the Yamaha Attitude for some time now.

 

[JimB52]

Going to have to sell about 10-15 before I think about a new one. It would ideally be a 1957 P, blond finish.

 

[cdef]

I currently have a line on a one-piece sapele ("African mahogany") P-shape body from 1998. If it works out I'll make that a project.

 

[Skybone]

The one before the next next one.

Another Ric.

 

[RobTheRiot]

This should be mine a little later today!! Yay!
Barring any unforeseen situations I'll be doing my first official TB NBD!!
(G & L El Toro, 1988 (I believe))

 

[Chili Bo Billy]

I would like to get a Hammersmith K series bass, a Rickenbacker 4003cs, a Jaco fretless tribute, a Danelectro longhorn
and a Music Man bass, I guess I will have to wait for a while.

I plan to order another Fender Jazz Bass later today....why? Because I just LOVE Fender Jazz Basses

 

[I am Soma]

currently have a modulus FU4 and have a MM Caprice to be delivered today. should satisfy my active and passive needs

 

[nonohmic]

Cutlass. Seems 24 frets is too much, but 20 is too little. So I'd like to try 21.

I'm not at all certaion there's another bass in my future. Well may be an NYC Sadowsky, but apart from that I'm set up fine with my Lull and Metro.

 

[jd56hawk]

Sold my Tribute and upgraded to this.
Mere pics cannot do it justice!

 

[Bikeguy57]

One of the new JMJ sig Mustangs after the first wave of early adopters start listing them in the classified section.

 

[agiehler]

On the lookout for a vintage styled P with gloss lacquered neck.

 

[shadven]

I've been chasing my GAS for years. I finally bought a 1952 Fender P early this year. I mostly feel my GAS is satisfied. I have 10 great (mostly vintage) basses.
But, an mid 60's Guild Starfire might be nice

 

[klejst]

Some sort of backup to my Fender Jazz Bass Special.

 

[Paulabass]

I need another fretless. My last one, a Jaco (Not the CS one) was a gem, but wasn't getting played enough. I'm not really in a hurry, so I'll see what comes along.

 

[sonic boogaloo]

I'm looking to sell my MIJ 62 Jazz Bass and use the money for a Reverend Dub King.

I'm so torn... And I need help ...

I REALLY want a German-made Warwick but I'm torn between the Thumb BO and the Streamer LX. I've never actually played either one because no music stores around me seem to carry high end instruments. I own a Corvette RockBass, and I've played a German Corvette in a big box store, but I'm not a huge fan of the Corvette. I love the way the Streamer looks and feel like it's the more versatile of the 2 options, but the Thumb seems like it would be incredibly well balanced. And I love the way the Thumb sounds in a mix (based on YT vids).

I'm also not sure if I should go 4 or 5'r. I'm a 4-string guy, all the way. And since I bought my first 5'r a few months ago, I definitely appreciate having that low B. But every time I pick a 5'r up, I notice I'm a little uncomfortable. My general playing confidence is hurt a bit based on lack of experience with em. I have a good feel for 5 strings, but again, I've played 4's quite a bit longer than I have 5's.

Considering it's such an expensive and well-made instrument, I DO want to like the thing, which makes me lean towards a 4-string. On the other hand, with such an expensive and well-made instrument, I'd hate to cut myself short with a 4-string when maybe, with time and completely different-feeling instrument, I may come to love the 5'r and learn to really take advantage of that B.

I realize it's a "play em all and make your decision" kind of thing, but in this situation, without having played either of the models, what advice could you provide me?
