The most beautiful basses you've ever seen?

Jens Ritter has that kool looking white fretless.

There is a green Alembic Essence in Reverb that looked nice and compact.

The best Jazz ever has been a seafoam green (?) Pensa-Suhr.

A dark brown unlined fretless Wal, was really fab.

Atlansia may be a bit 80's, but different altogether.

Steinberger, why not, industrial type.

I like Overwater Original / C.

Affirma is looking good.

Oh so many basses, so little time.

I think that this pickuard upgrade, made by the previous owner to my Eastman sidejack Vi lifts it into one of the most beautiful basses around catogory. It also has a pickup upgrade and sounds wickedly good.

This is a great thread, beauty will clearly be in the eye of the beholder but so what :D

Just checking, but is posting a bass you own/have owned crass?

Stunning craftsmanship, and yes, dowes look nice, until someone plugged the lead in. Spoils it completely IMO.

I bought the most beautiful bass in the world in 1969. My Fender Precision.

It doesn't look quite so pristine these days. It went through a period of modding in the 80's, with MEC and Seymour Duncan pickups and ended up with Bartolini and a Bart pre amp. Made it a much better bass, at the expense of its vintage credentials. If I ever go back to 4 string basses this has a killer sound. . . . . . . . . . . . .
