My basses perhaps reflect a misspent youth:
74 rick 4001, 75 fender jazz, 78? Hamer 8 string bought stripped and
bizarrely chopped by expert demented woodworker- I had it painted and
outfitted with Alembic pickups and tone filters, Early Chapman Stick , mid
era Chapman Stick, early Steinberger fretless, yet another rick 4001 much
too lazy to investigate it's age now, newish12 String Hamer bass, custom 8
string fretless, custom 8 string fretted, custom 5 string, hilarious Aria
whammy bass in a tasteful metalic sparkle green finish with nice bartolinis
and resonant active tone filters, 2 guild ashbury basses, several 4 string
fretlesses { I was big on Warmoth garage sales so I ended up with lots of
custom stuff }, rick 370 mcguinn 12 string, 74 gibson sg, 30s oahu lapsteel,
keyboards, drum machines, stuff. I did sell a guitar today.
