There's no need for these self flagellation threads, you know...
Too many basses might be 1, but it might also be infinite. Sadly, if you are having to contemplate the fact that you might be approaching too many basses, then you've probably already exceeded the number. If you are content and don't see any need to ask the question, then you're well under it.
I currently have 4, which sort of rest in two tiers. Tier 1:
- 1x Shuker Uberhorn Fretless 4
- 1x Fender CS '62 Jazz
These two are the used/gigged/jammed with usuals. I even have two mono bags for them, two mono straps, blah blah.
Then, I have a pair of 51 shape Precisions, both home assembled from body and neck blanks.
- 1x Surf Green with a really whacky Oil City prototype Single Coil Ricky style 51P shape in it
- 1x Natural semi-hollow with an oddball split coil 51P shape in it
And I'm about to build a Medium Scale Jazz to add to the "Tier 2 home builds"
Certainly no where near enough yet. I might start up a Tier 3 set - which would be cheaper more oddball basses.. and Tier 1 needs an early 70's Precision to finish it off.
