Really cool room @peterhuppertz.
There’s something welcoming about loft room with sloping ceilings!

I have been turning our small TV room into pretty much a dedicated bass practice room.
My ever tolerant wife, far from having a moan at me, looked at the ever growing bits of kit and cables, and said she thought we should look for some bass guitar related art for the walls. I really like this idea and it got me thinking if any of you have bought posters or framed prints of bass guitars, favourite players or other music related art for the walls?
Would be good to see what you’ve gone for if you can share a pic.

I saw this on the net a while back, but can’t remember anymore where - if you do a reverse image search on Google, you might be able to find the source and where to buy a copy:

Yeah, I guess my plan back then was to get it, but so far I have not yet gotten around to it

Hmm, yes, well… that needs some more work.
Currently, the only two things I have planned to hang is a non-music-related photo I made myself:
and a photo of my favourite musician (who didn’t play the bass guitar), which I also made myself:
I still haven’t gotten these framed yet, though.
I may pick a photo of my favourite living musician, probably one I made myself as well.

Very nice cave!
It reminds me very much of… me needing to get my s#*t together and actually tidying and cleaning up my place so I also can create a cool hobby cave for myself. Whenever I take pictures I usually have to tidy up a bit so you guys don’t see that I live like an animal.
Videos are okay though because the webcam is the area I keep clean - remote work meetings.
Kind of ashamed that it has gotten worse instead of better since I work less. I am a very not tidy person. I often have a crazy/dedicated professor vibe going on. I am organized in a few topics. Those topics change and once a topic lost my attention I don’t clean it up.
I’m throwing a glance at you - 3D printer!
I should probably fix it and then actually print something again. I bought replacement gear and new filament.
Anyone knows of any experiments printing instruments? 
That might shift the printer topic high enough in my inner prioritization that I take care of it.

Basses
1- look for cheap ones you can turn into artwork, or
2- look for ones you may not necessarily want to play, but that look awesome and like art.
Nothing comes to mind OTTOMH, but I would see plenty if I started browsing for Bass Porn.
May not be what you were thinking of at first, but I love the idea of hanging basses for art.
I have a few cheap ones that I got specifically for art, each for specific reasons, and I got them all cheap.
For Example, my favorite guitar player, from back when I was in my early 20’s is DimeBag.
DimeBag played the DEAN MetalMan guitar, it was a signature of his.
I found the bass version of this guitar, and watched it go from $300 down to $75 over about 3 months on Offer Up. I wanted it just because of DimeBag, but for a while I couldn’t think of a reason to get it other than liking it for the ART / ARTIST ASPECT. When it finally went down low enough, I got it and have had plans to hang it on the wall ever since.
i was not in a permanent residence at the time, but now that I hae my own place again, it will be going on the wall, mostly for Art.
The other reason I got it was in case I ever wanted to make a BEAD bass, this will be the one to use.
Plus I will do it with DR Orange Strings, so it will be a Black Bass with Orange Strings.
I like some of the other pictures that others have posted as well.

@T_dub I like your thinking Toby, I was thinking of contrasting bass above each night stand. I think I might get away with it if their Purple. Good to see you back on the forum, look fwd to your posts.
