Beedster Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 [attachment=35090:Image0087.jpg] Recently completed 2007 fretless Ric that I built from parts. Pure retro thump and power. Fattest neck I've ever played but somehow really fast and comfortable. Original Ric strings are a revelation. There's a thread here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=63678&hl="]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=63678&hl=[/url] Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duarte Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 For me, the Music Man Big Al is on top of my list, another Bongo (single H) and the 25th anniversary HSS bass. I like the MusicMans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Burpster Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 [quote name='Clarky' post='635895' date='Oct 25 2009, 10:05 AM']With respect to a Global Mod, thats just weird! Even doctor_of_the_bass with his 66 basses still has GAS [/quote] Well I guess if you push me, I would like the waiting list to be waaay shorter for HG Thor for one of my necks.... but otherwise I have 4 PRSs and while they all have subtle differences they fulfill my opinion of perfection. I 'kinda' want a Steinberger CR4M EUB, but will at some point in the future do that for sure...... so you see I'm quite blissfully happy.

littleal Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) This is what i have gas for!!! I wanted to buy captain rumbles pro1 but immediate cash is a problem so i spoke to paul herman on friday about ordering a fretless wal sixer, It will take around 10 months to build so that would give me enough time to pay for it, I'm thinking of placing the order tomorrow Edited October 25, 2009 by littleal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bh2 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Cor... looks a bit like my '62... Might have to get some covers for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussFM Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 and If I had those, I'd be pretty much GAS free. Or as GAS free as you can be around here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4000 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) Another Sei, followed by a W&T, followed by possibly a Rim...or something like that. Oh, and another Alembic obviously, but preferably rather lighter than usual. Edited October 30, 2009 by 4000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Warwick Fortress Masterman, one of the dark coloured ones. Like this: I'd also like a Tobias but i've weaned myself off them with a Zoot and a Fortress One Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digestive10 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) I'd really like to try one of the medium scale 32" jazz basses Fender Japan currently make. Apart from my first bass, a Hohner Jack, I've never been able to get along with 34", long scale instruments. I don't really enjoy handling a large one. (F'narr).

tischbein Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 played a bunch of 50´s and 60´s P and J basses this weekend... and know I´m hooked. Gotta sell the car, house, horse, boat.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bass Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 For me, I'm going through a "must buy Jazz bass" phase. Not sure if it will last or if I will like it, but I've been looking at the Squire Classic Vibe. BUT I happened to call in to a shop in lincoln that had an MIA S1 in sunburst with Tort scratchplate (I'm guessing an American Standard?) WOW it played beautifully. Also like the look of the new Squier James Johnston singaure model. I think it's meant to be the same spec as the classic vibe but in lake placid blue.

Bilbo Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I'd love a 1986 Wal Custom Fretless 4. They sound and play brilliantly and I can really express myself on them... Oh - I've got one! Brillo pads ! Anyone wanna swap a Status Energy 5 for a Stagg EUB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakenewmanbass Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I just want a fretless..... But it has to be an Alembic with series or sig electronics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 For me it would have to be an Overwater Progress. I just picked one up and its is unbelievable in every way, so I would love one like my new one below, but I would love a a buckeye burl top with a really stunning birdseye maple fretboard onmy next one.

Happy Jack Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Is there an option for [b][i]All Of The Above[/i][/b]? Some lovely basses up there on this thread but I've been going through an astonishing 3-year GAS-fest which is now coming nicely under control. My 'bass of the moment' is my most recent acquisition, a Fender Roscoe Beck V which I bought from Nathan (NJE). Instead of looking for more basses to buy, I'm concentrating on getting to know this bass better than any other I've had. All of which said, I'm still on the look-out for an early-70's Fender Jazz in 3TS, maple board, 4-bolt neck, thumb-rest, all-original, OHSC, laughably cheap. If you've got one, just PM me.

ped Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I haven't bought or lusted after a bass in a serious way for years. As it was my fretted basses 21st bday the other week I treated her to an electronics overhaul and now it is just completely my bass of the moment, and will be forever! P.s Nick - I know you would get that Arpege! Will be a great group photo with both our matching pairs, we should meet up sometime and get some snaps and you can show me how to play the things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
