DaytonaRik Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 3 bass guitars 3 Electric guitars 1 Electroacoustic guitar I'm not a massive gasser or flipper of kit and tend to buy what I want so end up keeping it, rather than buying something to see if I like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyP Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I have two. One is a Tanglewood violin bass (Hofner Beatle Bass copy) which I learned on and my main one is an Italia short scale. I do look at other bass guitars but when I pick up my Italia all thoughts of buying another bass fade away! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Mark Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I didn't know either! Had to write them down; 25 basses with one more on order, 1 six string classical, 1 six string acoustic. As this seems a bit excessive I'm definitely considering shifting one of the 6 strings. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msb Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I’m happy whenever someone tells me they have over 30 basses or guitars. It makes me fell better about only having twenty something. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I justify my "collection" (to myself) as before too much longer it will be used to part fund my retirement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Panzer Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 2 basses right now, I sold my other ones to make space for 2 "dream" basses I'm getting next year. I have a 4 slot rack to make sure I don't go crazy, the other single bass stands totally don't count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Sl Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I’m sure I’m a huge disappointment - 3. An Ibanez SR500 and a Yamaha BB614, both bought about 10 years ago. I gig with both, alternately, with the other as backup. The other is a Short scale Squier Jag. This has two neodymium magnets, 25x8 mm, on top of the bridge pickup. It’s an absolute hoot! The only gas I have is, er, the other sort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 1 P bass 4 electric guitars 1 acoustic guitar Thinking to sell a few electric guitars as I don’t use some of them enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Just worked it out - 9 electric basses, one of which is fretless. I could do with selling 3 really now that I think of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tait Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Yep, I know because I'm looking to slim the collection a little. 5 basses 1 EUB 2 electric guitars (+1 if including partners) 1 acoustic guitar 1 classical guitar (+1 for partner) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pics are requested: The Gus basses -the fretless 4-string has been sold to another Basschat member since this group shot was taken. Squier Bass VI which will almost definitely be up for sale soon: Burn Barracuda, which will probably slap be up for sale shortly: I don't have any photos of the Eastwood Hooky except for some of me playing it at gigs.

BreadBin Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 No. Not without making an effort. It's somewhere between 12 and 20, depending on how I count projects and ones I've 'loaned out' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knirirr Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 My house is small. So: 1x double bass. 1x EUB. 2x fretless bass guitars (one is listed for sale here) 1x fretted BG, 5 string. I don’t play the last of these as it is a micro scale and too fiddly, but my other half is using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meterman Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Just three. Mustang bass Jazz bass Tanglewood mini precision Lot of other gear though (3 drum kits, countless guitars and keyboards, etc) The Mustang gets all the play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rib13Bass Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 27 as of this writing.........but many were acquired as investment for starting my YouTube channel.Before my channel I had 17. This was a carry-over mindset from the late 80s/throughout 90s period of my life when I did a lot of studio sessionwork and found a need to have many colors on the bass pallette available to clients Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
