I don't really believe in the concept of a "crappy" bass. Even some of the cheapest basses have their own personality.

You get out of music what you put into, and as long as you have something that functions you can make sounds that can't be replicated with even the most expensive of equipment.


Take what you, get the most out of it, and make it your own.

Although I'll agree with you, their's no cheap useless bass, every bass has it's own soul, even the ones at the 1 dollar shop. But then you've got an amp. Have the best bass ever, the crappiest amp, and you've pretty much got a sound that'll annoy anyone within a 5 miles radius. So, if you've got a crappy metallic sound, the amps prolly at fault.

I have been playing now for 2 months and I am TOTALY ADDICTED. I cant put this thing down! It an Ibenez SR300 I traded my alto sax that I could never play for it and a Fender Rumble 25w amp (both new). It was the best trade I have ever made!

Been playing for about 1 month now. Got a cheap Crescent 4 string bought for 60$. After playing it a week, and falling in love with the Bass, I bought an Ibanez SR305. Cant get enough of this thing.

I use a Vintage EST96, which is a knockoff of the classic stingray. Mine outwardly resembles our esteemed founder's lovely Musicman, but with a maple fretboard and significantly worse electronics.

I have a fair few bits so I will take the plunge and post my stash Smile

first up my starter rig I bought first (I no longer have the ashdown - its in a local shop for sale) I still use the Ibanez BTBLTD07 because I fitted a drop d to it.

What bass are you currently using? - Page 2 Hx3hjc

Next up is my Tanglewood TW55 acoustic bass. Just changed the strings to Tomastik Infeld Acousticores - which are fantastic!

What bass are you currently using? - Page 2 2v808rm

I also have an older OLP 5 stringer which I cant get the hang of playing Sad 4 strings for me it seems - so this is for sale in the local shop too. Shame really as its a nice bass.

What bass are you currently using? - Page 2 Vpuvjn

Then we have my Custom Shop Epiphone Thunderbird in awesome gloss black. I adore this bass - no matter what others say about Thunderbirds it never has put me off playing as its a really really nice bass to rock with. Plus it just looks the part - and the tone suits the stuff I like.

What bass are you currently using? - Page 2 Jgk1l1

Last but far from least is my present rig and main bass.
Genz Benz Shuttle 3.10t combo with Hartke 15" extension cab. Zoom B2.1u foot pedal and Big Muff.
My Warwick Rockbass Corvette active which I bought not 3 months ago and just sliding into the pic my Ashdown Compression pedal.
I love this rig - sounds fruity Smile I can get pretty much and tone I want with the pedals now. Almost happy with it. And the GB is just an amazing bit of kit for its size and weight.

Anyway thats my lot (for now!)

Feel free to comment etc - I know I dont have the best bass's in the world or rig - but its what I have so there!

(please dont ridicule my tiny Ukulele's sat on the wall - they already feel somewhat lacking when hung with the bass's hehe)

And a quick random pic of wall hangers lol
