I have an Ibanez. Don't know what kind, though. It came in a starting package.

A rented black and white fender. The one I now own is a red Yamaha RBX170... I loves it.

sweatdrop I'm still on my first bass, but then i've only been playing about a year. Also theres a little problem with the cash flow... I'm too ******** lazy to get a job. But I love my baby- Kanok MEB 9022
I got him from Cash Converters for $129- Fantastic condition too, just had new strings and new pickups, I was thrilled 4laugh

A crappy no-make one. I've had it for about 6 and a half months and the volume dial is falling off. The strings rattle. It does not stay in tune. One of the pickups is on funny (sort of sinking in at one side). I really does not stay in tune. I can go out to practice at a friend's house, have it tuned, get home, and it's all wonky again.

I want a new one so badly.

Psssh. Yeah. Ibanez has got to be my fav brand of all time. Thats my opinion though, no one bash on that. I started with a fender bass. I dont remember what it was, but the neck on it was baddly bowed. I ended up giving it away to a friend of mine. He lives in Hawaii now, but I am glad that he got my bass.

I went to Ibanez after that. Never liked any other bass more. (well... There have been close calls)

Standard Fender Jazz.. and it's still my favorite axe.. only now it's been slightly tweaked and modified up a bit but it still has its old kick.

3nodding that was mine too...sadly it died emo the neck totally snapped in half...damn my sister to hell

I'm sorry to hear that. Perphaps it was for the best (not financially of course), as it opened you up to trying out new basses i'm sure. If only the neck was damaged, i'm sure you could get a replacement neck from your local guitar repair shop for at least $40 bucks (prices will vary based on what type of wood you'd want and the like).

Some beginner bass called Laurel. Got it off ebay. Even though it's a crappy beginner no one has ever heard of, its still got a good sound (well now it does after I fixed the imput sweatdrop )
Great memories on that baby. biggrin
