Years agoi played with a band where I'd use tge following basses during the set:
5 string bass (Sei Bass or Fender)
Fretless bass
Hofner "Beatle" bass
Chapman Stick
Double Bass
The instruments sounded great for their respective tunes, and changing over wasn't too much hassle.
The biggest problem was the physical space required to store them, and also the room needed to transport them.
Tall glass of Hendricks gin with cucumber, and chilling to the likes of this:

I had the same problem on a Fender 5 string Jazz about15 years ago.
I drilled a hole in a plectrum, and then trimmed it using a pair of scissors to get the round shape.
15 years on and its still intact, and the tuner works perfectly.
Stevie Wonder's 'Sir Duke" is a good one. The horn unison line spans the whole range of the neck.

I'm currently watching it with my 11 year old son. Michael Jackson just performed with The Jacksons
my son Jonathan just said, "woah, is that Michael Jackson?". Yes son, thats him. "Dad, how come he's got fake tan on"???
It's strange you mentioned that as I'm experiencing exactly the same thing, and my ailment started around the same time as yourself.
Any hints anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated.
