Who owns the more basses from the same brand?

Mark C. has what, like, 6 or 7 FBBs. Jared's been through some Foderas. Jeff Rader and Fhodshon (and someone else, but forgive me, I can't recall your name...Jim is it?) are a little heavy on Sadowskys. JT shouldn't even count...:D (but Mark B might be catching up on him soon!) Treena is a bit Fender-crazy. Boogie's been through the selections. I'm with Ty on this one...I'll start collecting Roscoes once I get through this stupid college thing. ;)

I believe you're referring to JimS (I think)?
 
Two Lakland Skylines here, a Joe Osborn and a 44-01 fretless. I'd like to get a 55-02 at some point.

My main bass is a Pedulla Thunderbolt. I plan to get a fretless Pedulla (probably a Buzz) later this year. (Does that count?) ;)
 
I've had 4 Roscoe's (down to 1) & 3 Fenders (down to 2). I've since decided to have no more than 1 or 2 of any given brand since I believe each great luthier/design brings something unique to the tonal pallete. I do tend to try and pair them up though:

SC5 Nordstrand & SC5 Elrick fretless
black '66J and black '75P fretless
blonde Lakland 55-94 & soon to be blonde Benavente '51 PJ5
The faux marble Roscoe and metallic purple (pink :eek: )Genesis 5 aren't matched, but they match the family room decor and are untouchable as per "she."
