inexpensive URB ... possibly 5 string

 

[Killdar]

I bet I will forget a bunch....but it boils down to this:

1) Fender HM4 (already have)

2) Zon sonus lightwave fretless 4

3) a really really good custom fretted 4, maybe made of the same kinds of woods as a warwick

4) a 4 string Basslab, with a custom shape most likely.

5) a 3 octave 8 string, tuned F#BEADGCF

6) the obligatory really good upright

I may change the list, but something along those lines....all needs suited perfectly. first bass, sweet main bass, fretless, futuristic bass, crazy extended range bass, and the original.

 

[ckitz]

Here is my wish list:

1)Neuser Cloudburst 4-string
2)Rickenbacker 4001
3)Geddy Lee Jazz Bass
4)Vintage P-Bass
5)Vintage Jazz Bass
6)Gibson T-bird
7)Hohner Beatle Bass
8)Any Steinberger Headless bass.

The Gibson Thunderbird bass that belongs to Martin Turner
The Hofner bass that belongs to Paul McCartney
The Rickenbacker bass that belongs to Paul McCartney

The Rickenbacker bass that belongs to Chris Squire
The Gibson EB3 that Jack Bruce owned
The Fender Precision that Kieth Richards played with Dirty Mac (one time only gig)

First, can i say its wrong to have 4 pages of thread without a pic!

Secondly, is it wrong that my collection is complete?

Well almost, i have a Darkstared Jazz bass almost finished and i still need a Beatle bass and maybe a Stingray but thats it!
Oh, and maybe a G&L El Toro and a Gibson RD Artist!
