This'll end up as 'a bloke [i]paid[/i] me to take his bass away, it's the best one I've ever played' etc... :P

Entirely possible if it's one of those haunted devil instruments (kind of like the bass equivalent of the red shoes). They don't come up often though.

Our holy grail of tone is all so personal though isn't it? I fully understand that most other people may think the sound I like is utter cack in their eyes ( or ears) I haven't even plugged it in to my other rig yet and when I do, although the playability will still be there, I may not be so happy with the sound. Guess I was just lucky that what I did plug into happened to give me what I wanted immediately (Genz Benz Shuttle combo)

Not really sure how much any modern amp will colour a sound. I see what you're saying though, I could pick up an identical bass and hate it.

Just came across these cheap yamaha attitude std clips. I bet 95% of all users here would agree if you told them that this is an expensive boutique bass in a blindfolded test.
