What are your 2 favorite basses?

[socialparasite]

Mine are Ernie Ball Sting Ray and T-Bird.

[tcook]

Gibson thunderbird, which I owned....notice "owned'...it's long gone
Fender Jazz, which I've never owned, but would love to. I just don't think you can beat the sound.
Oh, yeah, only two...the older Rick's sound pretty good too.........

[acwild]

Fender Geddy Lee Jazz
Music Man Stingray

That would cover all of my tonal needs. I'll throw in a Steinberger as an alternate because I'm lazy and don't like to lug equipment around. :D

[thunder_bird]

Im not sure but i do know that i absolutely hate Thunderbird basses :hmmm:
















:p

I always thought Warwick basses were cool.

[rockD]

I've always liked the Kubicki X-factor and the Steinberger headless bass. They're old school. Are they still making these?

[acwild]

Man, I haven't heard of Kubicki in a long time. Ned Steinberger just launched a new line called Synapse which are different from the all composite models. I don't know of anyone who has one and you can only order it through Musician's Friend. It looks like something I'll get in the future.

I always thought Warwick basses were cool.

Me too.

And Les Claypool's custom 6-string.

[Lazy Bee]

Spector NS2 Original...got one and she's a bueaty, really gets the growl.

[Builder018]

I love my Fender American Standard Precision (fretless). I am saving for a Fender American Deluxe Precision (fretted). What can I say.....I dig Fenders!

[t_shirtsnjeans]

Large mouth and sand, sometimes stripers, but mostly the first tew.

[Peaceful]

Why do we say 'bayce' for one, and 'bas' for t'other?

[Skymx99]

I like fender P-bass and Thunderbirds.

[Signifier]

Rickenbacker 4003 and Gibson's EB0 from 1970.

[SKEETER]

Probably the best bass I have ever played is a Japanese made Fender. I now have an SX Jazz bass that is very close in quality and sound to the Japanese Fender. Japanese instruments rule........

[Eclectifish]

Alembic
Benavente

I always thought Warwick basses were cool.

If I am not mistaken, Warwick are the ones that are made by what was once Framus ( and is now back in business).

[AnotherTicket81]

My 2 favorite basses...hmm, I had a Fender Jazzmaster that played pretty sweet. Till I got my Carvin 5-string with active electronics though! That's m'baby! My hubby thinks I'm nuts. He's a lead guitar player and laughs and says, "I don't get it...a guitar with 5 strings and ya can't make chords on it!"

~AnotherTicket81~

[SKEETER]

Hmmm, I always have done chords on a bass..............

[tallpaul]

I have a 74 Fender P bass fretless and a 04 fender jazz fretless, also getting a custom jazz fretted made with bart pick ups....owned a rick 4001 in the mid 80s,,,,,sounds great but heavy as heck.....\
