Other basses I've owned and played;
|
Jazz Bass Special |
This was my second bass, and I liked it very much. When I bought it, it was the best I could afford. Exchanged it for the Gibson Thunderbird. |

Thunderbird |
When I played Glam/Sleaze rock, this was THE bass to play… I really got that indistinct rock'n'roll sound that is rumbling, but never really heard. Its neck was really great, but the pickups sucked. Exchanged it for the Warwick |

Kramer Semi-Acoustic |
Cool bass I bought to be able to practice at home and play with my troubadour friends. These instruments had an extremely varying quality, some sounded awesome, and others weren't even worth the lacquer… I was lucky, though. |
|
Fortress One |
The most expensive bass I've had, a really great instrument, great wood, great neck, great pickups, great sound… A serious ass-kicker that sounds great in any kind of music. Second only to the Missfoster. Unfortunately, I had to pawn it, and couldn't afford to get it out. |
