Latest addition to the herd. Sire Marcus Miller V7 Alder-5 tobacco sunburst. You get a lot of bass for a decent price, very well built with an extremely versatile preamp onboard. Tonight I will do a proper setup and more toying around with it.

Beautiful bass. The tort pickguard really makes the red in the burst pop out at ya. Ive always been a sucker for the single tuner upside down like a musicman. Congrats.

Time for the Peavey family shot. A couple didn't make the call and in hindsight should have moved some around,Zodiac DE hidden at the back & a USA Cirrus lying on the floor swapped for one of the Fury's. If you want to know how big a hassle arranging nearly 30 bass is ask derek ,he took the photo

That's one hell of a collection KB, and that is also a very large living room for a barge

Done it again. More new basses. Bought this one a couple of months ago. And these two are more recent. The Ibanez SR305EBL-WK is already several weeks in my possession, a lot of high quality bass for very little money. The MusicMan Stingray 5 was delivered today. While I was looking for something else I stumbled onto it new for a price I just could not resist. A Stingray 5 was on my "if ever" wish-list for a long time but normally the price is in a range I would never ever spend on a bass.

The warwick is nice, but I love the finish on that Ibáñez!

Ibáñez calls it 'Weathered Black', it's a mahogany body with a solid black finish on which you can still feel and see the grain, time will tell how it will wear down.

Is it similar to the sand blasted stuff or not as pronounced?

Nowhere near as pronounced, it's really a subtle grain. Judge for yourself. Sandblasted against weathered black.

New Uke-bass is in the house - this order dates from before my Kahuna crash! Ordered this one three months ago through AliExpress, today it finally arrived, I'm happy to have a 'little bastard' again. It needs some tweaks but the build quality is actually very good on this one. It also needs some new strings, I've already got a set of Aquila 91U Thunder Reds for it. Once these are on I'll post some pictures of my own.

Careful now with the new strings Blablas! Great to see you have a little bastard in your collection again. They are an insanely fun little thing, I cant put mine down for a good hour if I pick it up.
