Itâs a fine neo-classical interpretation of a bass; essentially, a single cut mini-cello.

Very Nice. I love a black Jazz with a rosewood fingerboard!

Yes, My taste in basses are a bit different than most. I think you would probably say that about 75% of my collection

You are probably right 
And it really just means I am not as âadventurousâ as you when it comes to body shapes and more unusual bass designs.
There is no doubt about it that you own some very stunning basses

Says the guy who owns a Mayones 
Personally I like simple designs, thatâs why I like Fender so much. Itâs more a tool and not a work of art.

I can totally see why youâd say that, but while Mayones has some stunning, well almost gaudy designs, the one I really like and stick to is the Jabba, which is basically a slightly updated modern J bass body - this seems to be the form I most gravitate to

Not right now haha. Also red is a bit too much for my taste. My son has red Sire P5 and it looks really classy on him when he gigs for special occasions.

Thanks! I have put a few hours on it and it plays amazing. This is my first fretless without lines. The Delano Xtender sounds great. So far these are my favorite pickup.

This probably belongs in the Ugly bass thread, which is part of why we named it The Ugly Stick. Acquired this back before a Christmas. But WHY?! 25 bucks. Thatâs why. And it had a new set of strings at the time. Everything crackled and popped. Had a damaged tuner. Neither strap button is in the original hole although the original holes remain. But after some parts from my spares and and some time and expletives⌠it lives. And it doesnât suck!! MIK Mako. Provided you can get past the general aura of childishness⌠itâs a p bass with a maple neck. Deng thing Rawks.
