I did a quick search and didnt find anything. I know we're mostly guitar players around here, but what kind bass guitar(s) are you guys playing?

I currently have Warwick Rockbass Corvette. Im thinking about getting rid of it for something like a EBMM Stingray or something with a big humbucker in the bridge. Just curious what you guys are using.
 
Bone stock Mexican Jazz bass. White with rosewood board.

Got a GREAT setup on it and it plays fantastic and sounds great through any amp. Solid, stout tone.

I can caress it or beat the snot out of it (which I mostly do) and it holds up wither way.

Love it. :rock:
 
Sandberg California 5 String (moved there from a MusicMan Stingray 4 String), awesome German build quality, classic Preci sounds in passive mode, full Stingray honk with humbucker and active EQ.

I would like to get a Mike lull thunder bird reverse or non reverse.
 
On the left is my '87 Charvel 2b I threw SD Music Man's in when I was 15... I named it "The Beast" when I got it at 14 because "it's a beast of a bass". I've had it pretty much since I got serious about bass. I have plans to do some more work on it when I finally can resume my roll on the telephone cables...

On the right is my "holy grail" Charvel 3b I bought from my buddy Chris. That one's name is "Heat". I know it as the "Red Monster" but its name is "Heat" as I was told. haha He took it all over Europe with House of Lords in 2009. This was the bass that gave me the idea to throw MM's in mine... That was a couple years before I'd ever dream of owning the actual bass.

I've got my first MIM Jazz bass I'm going to overhaul for the 50,000th time at some point... More on that later. haha

Ironically, I started as a bass guitarist. But my guitar player quit my band 2 weeks before a gig when I was 16. I knew a bass player to fill the slot quick. No other guitar players.... So I jumped on guitar to save the gig and got sucked into it... Haven't gotten back since... Dammit!! haha

I'm currently in the works on my next one... You guys will be hearing more on that soon...

Sold my MIM 5 string J Bass cause I didnt need it,now I'm stuck with a Rogue 5 at the moment, geez I do dumb things
 
An old Peavey Foundation model of some sorts, has both a bridge and neck pickup (I like being able to blend the two). It's nothing special, but heh, with a fresh set of strings slapped on, it sounds solid enough in a mix.
 
Am standard Jazz bass or a Rick :yes:

Fender Geddy Lee Jazz bass and Musicman sterling 5SH here. Both are great bases, still would like to own a ric bass someday....
 
A no name P-Bass with a nice sounding Bartolini in it and Mexi Jazz bass deluxe. Love the preamp in the Fender. The mid boost will put any bass or guitar tube front end into overdriven bliss. Want to get the P-Bass version too.
